for a bit of a more serious response
obviously if you farm a tag thats been at war that cant retal you they might be unhappy
this can sometimes lead to them grabbing your all explores or whoever else they can, and in such a situation you have provoked it
sometimes its good to give extended dnh's to tags that have been in war because of that
it never makes the hit on a third party acceptable as a retal, but it needs to be dealt with as a normal grab of that type
(in this case supposedly there is a message stating its a retal which just causes more conflict, it doesnt make it a valid retal unless thats accepted by both sides)
which commonly in alliance server right now means 80-100% land:land, its further complicated by it being too late in the set for retalling to be worth while
the original grab was about 14 days before the end of the set by a dict something, presumably casher/farmer that was sitting on 15k for a week barely exploring and mainly abing an untagged Subse7en (#391)
since then Velo (#328) has been grabbing mainly untagged and for 1154 acres in what wasnt a netting country created all these problems
go piss up a rope (#45) also presumably a casher/farmer then took maybe 97% land back, with about 83% before the last hit
it might be worth it for 2083 acres gained but its not a huge amount, positive or negative either way, thats if the situation is now resolved and doesnt lead to anything else
the imag country is 2500 up on the second exchange and 1200 down on the first but could have just explored that land in either 1.5 or 3 days anyway
someone in lcn basically pointlessly takes land
someone in imag basically pointless takes land
someone else takes back land for a roughly neutral outcome is upset and makes a thread
nothing really happened
just leads to more conflict, which isnt a bad thing if thats what people want
+1
