If you attack (military) someone you are flagged as a criminal. You can now be attacked by anyone, and they will not lose fame or be flagged as a criminal. Criminal flags last 15 days if nobody attacks you, and for each attack on you, 5 days are taken off.
I want other people to make comments for or against the criminal system.
I relize the Criminal System was removed from OMINIX due to the request of a majority of the players. I also relize that it did not fix any of the players complaints that they thought the system was causing.
A slight ammendment, i like the idea in principle but to open yourself up to the entire server is too harsh. To allow the person you attacked a "free" hit in return is good IMHO (by free i mean NO fame loss / attack restrictions)
I completly understand that aspect of the Criminal System, you just have to look at in a differnt way.
In regard to the " free hit comment "
- Suiciders are already open to every after they attack, exept for regons larger than them ( THEY CAN STILL BE ATTACKED EASILY )
- Regular attackers are open to everyone and yes larger region can make land grabs ( YOU CAN STILL BE ATTACKED BY REGIONS YOUR SIZE )
The point is it cuts down on attacking, and yet at the same time opens up attacking. People who can manage a region and build faster and better should not be completly restricted from attacking.
It doesnt make you infamous there is a major differnce and that is your effieceny. Remember your efficency goes down when your fame goes down to the infamous level. It is like being infamous in reguards to that other people actually can benifit a little for your Criminal Actions. Its not Harsh its just.
Suicider will not be affected by Criminal System. This will only make it on their favor. I was a suicider. I even advertise that they attacked me every 3 gamedays after I suicide. Now I dont have to advertise if the Criminal System is implemented because they will not loose fame and they will have an easy land grab. I even wanted them to retal provided that my army is away.

Yes most suiciders do want regions to attack them, when i suicide i always do to make sure my science is 100%.
It wont make it in there favor it will just make it evan seeing how the region they suicide on will be able to retaliate back and get a % of thier land back. Where maybe they couldnt due to the 1/2 1/3 rule along with other perks
it would diminsh suiciders ...... wouldnt eliminate.
I dont like it.
Alot of the fun for me in this game are the military strikes.
Who wants to be part of a game where all you do is nurse land and networth, for fear of retaliation if you step out of line.
Too many people playing this game are scared enough about attacking.
Lets not make it any less appetising.
That is the downfall of the Criminal System, i cant debait that point. It will scare people, yet what people dont relize is when they make an attack they still have that same fear hu ? thats wierd.
By the way who wants to be in a game where all you can do is nurse land and networth if you outgrow everyone and you cant atatck due to the 1/2 1/3 rule and not to mention the fame loss if you were able to attack ?
but then there are still going to be those few that do get way ahead in NW, and the only ones they will be able to attack, and it will be unfair, will be little regions that go into combat against eachother.
Such as if this system had been in effect last s2 round Citizens was my ally and was WAY ahead of everyone, so if we waited till someone attacked me and was criminal, he would have been able to hit them 5 times with no problem and no consaquence. after a hit like that, it would have been easy for me to fisish off any hopes they had left.
Its not that it would be a bad system, its just that it would make this a very different game. whole new stratagies to learn and use.
He cant hit you 5 times its more like 3, but then again after your attack your put into protection right ? So maybe 2 attacks at most.
For a little side not if you are working with an allaince you could easily have a allaince member send in the minimum # of troops and attack you ...... this way you get out of the criminal status without loosing anything
yes yes good plan good plan...hey...how bout you guys go out and get lives? hmmm how bout that plan? you leave your computers for a little while and go to a bar hmmm? get out of your parents basement and go have a little fun! while your out there the off chance you get a girl maybe it will tear u away from a terrible terrible game like this one...yes....good plan
