POB owners lose absolutely everything if their base gets pops, especially in a sneaky way such as attacking off the back of a 6 week old attack thread.
Stop complaining that your griefing attempts get thwarted and that you have to put effort into destroying something people have put days, weeks or even months into.


And what is the point of all of this complaining if Atackers dont lose anything by posting once a week ?

The real question is. What would you or some other PoB owner gain by forcing atackers to post once every week ?

I think answer is you will get once a week remainder to suply your base.

For example Red Hessians dont like Daumans dont they? Their entire RP is to be against rheinland and it's corporations so wich means if they dont post once in 7 days they can not atack the bases of Dauman Kruger Republican Military ones even if it's in their very core and heart of lore role play that they are oposite sides and in a war with each others.
So they must keep posting once every week 4 times in a mounth 52 times per year just so they could start sieging enemy base at any given time if they sudenly run out of suplies.
This also means we will have tons and tons and tons of new posts each week damn moderators will have their hands full of work.
Seems to me this is an atempt of PoB owners who dont do anything except PoB-ing to make their job easier as posible.
In that case people why dont you simply ask the Admins to make them undestructable and get over with it already.

oK : I still say the thread is NOT about RP

It´s about a warning time. To get interaction.

Point 2 : So if I post a thread as soon a base is built, and then paitently wait until I by chance know that the group defending the base will be unavailable to get online to defend it... say , six months later ? That´s good style ?
Fair play ? Good RP as *the Hessians would do anything to destroy a Daumann base* ?

Point 3 : Admin statement by Garret. Well, I cannot say anything against that.
But I still think it would be better to have ... lets say 72 bases, about 1/3rd under constant threat of destruction at any given time... that´s 24 posts a week.
Short posts, resending the threat , just stating it is still active.

Rather that than see the next group of players ragequit.

Oh...
Ind I still suggest making PoB easier to attack and demolish, but then temporarily inactive and undestructable till Admin clearance.
It gives the Hessians a chance to damage the base enough to get it out of action ... perhaps for a week ? For two ?
And makes the bases a rallying point for some fights.
Interaction again, huh ?

Funny everybody is only raging about KILL or NOT TO KILL...
Do I miss something ?[/sarcasm]

I was only a bit sarcastic bro...

My friend if you feel lazy lazy lazy to suply your base than dont build it at all in the first place.
All i see are some people who whant to get a reminder of every time someone intend to atack.
Also if you making a base in someone's yard (teritory) what better RP validity you need for the base atacker to atack it.
And you should be aware of the risks for example if you decide to make a pirate base in KNF space.
You dont suply it you lose it than!

I also agree. One week is too short. Two weeks leave some room for a surprise strike.

Admins could appoint a dedicated member of the community to take care of this thing and this thing only if they can't spare their sanctionlancer time.

And let me know when you make that android application. Sounds very interesting. It could have some more functions like storage space available, commodities needed and such. Smile)

So this is about one ( 1 ) specific base ?
Not about PoB´s in general ?

Or only about unlawful bases ?
Only bases outside of ZoI ?

Said nothing in the thread topic about that so far.

I was talking about PoB's in general.
But what suprises me is that this topic started right afther that base in Omega 9 got destroyed there was no other bases destroyed afther that one and sudenly we have forum voting.
So this smels to me like an atempt to get it back ?

I think the question is valid, even if I agree that the timing most probably means that the ownner or a close friend wants go get a wrong rightened. Or so as he sees it.

But still , the discussion itself is valid :
Should there be a time cap for the *validity* of an attack thread announcement ?

Pro :
  • After all , the thread is meant to be a warning, so that some other RP thread is not overlooked
  • it takes very much time to build a base and the time it takes to destroy it is VERY much shorter
  • a regular warning might increase interaction possibility


Sry that I will not write the contra ;-)
I am a base owner, and fully admit to be biased.
Feel free to write more pro & contra

Have you ever sieged a base?
You can't compare building and sieging times cause you also need even less time to destroy a fleet who is conducting a siege.
All you need is a few Battleships or even better few nova torp bombers and woala no siege anymore.

But if this atack threat warning posts becomes a reality than perhaps siegers not the owners are the ones who need a Phone aplication with alarm when PoB hull starts going down cause someone is lazy to suply it.
