You're talking about spewing out ideas with no backup being something that worries you, and you go ahead and spew out ideas (even ones in support of my proposition) with no brainstorming or support at all. Simply a 'this doesn't need to go' with no backup at all.
So you state that there needs to be a period where the factions can infight... have you watched the towers chat recently? Since release, I've seen maybe two or three instances where omni fights omni, or clan fights clan. Of those two or three, I know one was an accident that was no real fight at all, and there's a good chance that the others were too. But guess what... every day defenders get cut to pieces by friendly towers because of the unnecessary 5% grace periods...
I'm sorry but you're coming across as one of those 'needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many' people. When the alliance system is up and running, which will hopefully be soon, then toss 5% gas back in. I never said 5% had no place in the game, I never said I didn't like it. Instead I said that without an alliance system it doesn't work. Until both systems are ready to go, neither should be running.
And I'm saying given the very new nature of the Notum Wars and the resulting land grab, with no 5% gas you immediately lock out the possibility for people to gain territory for their bases.
