QQQ VVV!

#1
I want to QQ a little because I thought it would take more than two weeks into Zorg gameplay before being attacked by the #1 Alliance :) lol

So, if an alliance starts attacking another alliance, isn't it etiquette to declare war on the Alliance War forum prior to attacks? If the #1 alliance in Zorg cannot hold themselves to this standard, then I suppose the Alliance War forum should be removed and shame on them :P

Attacks are not declarations of war. Players attack for a profit. War declarations only allow players to bash each other (attack more than 5x in a 24 hour span) which is pretty useless. Fleetsave, and don't leave resources lying around. GLoTR

Oh I see then, I guess it was just a coincidence that a few people got bored at the same time and started hitting us :) Knowing how big they must be, they probably hit the whole galaxy lol.

I fleet save, and move all the Res with them, also I never sleep so that is a bonus hehehe.

By far the most important resource for a fleeter is deuterium. With very few exceptions, if you have been attacked, it is because it was worth the expense of fuel and the tying up of a fleet slot for the time involved in order to attack you. No one made it to where they are by pounding planets for no profit. The forum is full of advice on how to fleetsave, but it is also important to spend your resources. A turtle shell one system over is easier to hit profitably than a relatively smaller one 50 systems away because I can send more ships to hit the close one for no loss with less fuel spent then would be required for a smaller turtle further away. Do not rely on your shell to protect your resources if you have more than a couple million total resources and less than 30k LL or equivalent.

The fact that numerous members of your alliance were hit means that numerous members of your alliance are not playing the game optimally. No one wastes the time and fuel to pick on little guys.

That is of course great advice, thank you Shaftoe. And you are correct, whatever I do have I do spend, Zorg Res certainly don't collect interest from the banks. Only interest with others trying to get them :) I fleet save the Res I need for my next big project, like say a Nano lvl5 or research lvl 14. Is that also an incorrect thing to do?

that ranking number next your name means little to me and it should mean little to you..no matter the rank if someone leaves res lying around than they shouldn't expect it to be there when they log back in..if it is consider it your lucky day.

and for those that think just because they don't put there ships all on 1 planet no one will hit them..recycled ships is another form of profit..not just the res on the planet.

My activity may not be what it once was but it is still higher than 99.9% of this server.The armada is just waitting for someone to slip up and the tons of new players that thought putting all their 21 planets around me in the lower G's will no doubt realize what a bad idea that was here soon ;)
