@Superfly I think the premise or perhaps intent of your words at least are fair, that attacking other players should be a part of the game, and players should plan to carry reasonable defense or can expect to receive attacks as appropriate. However, the method that this sort of action has been carried out in practice, I cannot agree with. And since I have not personally had any experiences with you, I will only speak to other instances where I have experienced this sort of thing from Hungry.
Again, keeping players honest by ensuring they keep defenses and by leaving the availability of attacks in the game is fair. But what is not fair is spending the whole set outperforming the average and then getting targeted by a focused effort to grief a set. And players have been doing this without consequence for months now. What is the recourse for the players trying to actually play the game properly? Kill off that griefing country? Okay, easy, because those countries are actually trash countries that are purpose built to ruin other's sets, they would have no chance of being competitive in the set. Then what? Oh, they just restart, and target you again, forcing you to kill them again. Every. Single. Reset. Without pause. There is no consequence to the repeated griefing.
We have talked about this before. Grabbing humans is fine given you actually use the land and try to win. Spamming strikes without any intention of competing, but only for the purpose of ruining others' sets is not within the spirit of the game, and this behavior should get the consequence it deserves.
