Excessive Attack Times

Sorry, me and k2 are together on this one again. It is a big part of the game and shouldn't be taken away. Your a duke, you should know this. Sorry, but me and k2 have some same ideas.

O.o

also kcmat, when his pin ends pin him back so he cant do anything with that accnt. Then go to ur alliance and tell them to attack the main persons accnt, sooner or later he will want to make some sort of agreement

pinning is a loved part of the game and why do you care. its one sub if ur a duke u have about 5. its 1 sub!!! and if u are gonna complain about pinning. go into refuse war if u can stand a fight. but if their just pinning to be annoying that could be a problem...but personally i only have used pinning to steal subs

Again,
It's not Pinning I'm against. It's the excessive pinning by accounts that are so far below you in level it's meaningless to attack them back. And finding the "Main" account of the person that is pinning you is sometimes next to impossible. How can you really tell who that lvl 1 account belongs to?
I am all for pinning. But there should be a cap on how far away you can pin someone.
Or maybe a counter attack option to intercept the pin mid-way?

Then why do they want to pin u if they don't want to farm u with there main?

They pin for one of 2 reasons:
1) They do it to be annoying
2) They do it to completely shutdown that city for an extended period of time.

In Server 9, If you have level 10 Turrets Up, Very Few people are willing to risk an attack on that city. BUT, They will pin it in place to keep you from doing anything with it.

Maybe instead of a cap on Pinning, they instead allow Resource Exchanges and Market Trading to continue until the attack is within X Time from the city. 1 Cat 12 hours out should not shut down a city...

just attack them ALL back ,starve um steal and resign therre forts they will get the point and eventually stop

ok well why do they want to shut down ur city? are u attacking them? tell them u will stop attacking if they stop pinning

well then if its the market you want to use, then suggest that city only shuts down 30min before the attack, when the enemy can be spotted by the city. but when an army is still 4 hours away for example, trade can continue

I understand the strategic value of pinning, however in a more realistic world it is often abused by players who simply want to be annoying. There is absolutely no reason to have a city shut down for long periods of time as it often makes a player not want to play. Also, I'm sure many of you on the forums have been playing a while and probably have saved up quite a few coins. Those of us who are relatively new cannot afford to go into refuse at any given moment.

I can't say I have been pinned too many times, however I can see how this would negatively impact game playing.

Gotta agree that pinning is part of the game. Lol kc u have multiple acc and pin with them so why are u complaining any way. Phalanx which is your alliances uses these tactics nonstop. Same with using alts to take subs. Ironic
