    Well, it depends what server do you play on, because each server has different fairplay rules.

    Not really no, and the only thing you can do is call bigger alliances to beat the bully up.
  • It's fine. Attacking is part of the game; it's medieval-themed.

    Attacking burning castles are breaking fairplay rules really
  • ... And Fair Play is British invention... this one probably only speaks English.

    On United Kingdom 1 server, it is considered breaking the 'fair play' rules if you attack a burning castle. The only time a burning castle can be hit is if they have left the game, or in ruins (Not in an alliance).

    Complain to the attacker, or the attackers Diplomat.

    Well sometimes burning castle sometimes show no activity, but out of curtesy i send a message asking are they rebuilding if i get a response, they no attack . if no reply i assume they are not interested in game , but i only send small attacks for shady .So i guess its the response from players, but it changes once you are at war , players will be farmed , and once they reach a point where there is complete damage it cost no more rubies to repair .

    When we are at war are non ruby players are targeted first , so they take priority,in our defence . i hope this helps

    I've never really understood this, fair to me might not be fair to you which might not be fair to Joe Bloggs down the road.

    For a very long time one of the biggest irritations towards the BSK family alliance (I was leading one of their alliances at the time) was "police stating" the server - dictating to the rest of en-1 what they were and were not allowed to do. I can't help but feeling in full agreement with that, any and every alliance should decide on what it considers appropriate behaviour and what it doesn't, whether 10 levels diff or 20, 5 clicks or 50, burning castles or not, RVs or not etc.

    Alliances have rules. Servers don't, and the fair play rules are variable, interpreted differently by different alliances, and entirely non-binding to anyone on the game.

    If someone hits your burning castle, PM them politely and ask them to please stop to give you chance to rebuild and put fires out etc. If they do, great, if they don't, go find someone who will support your case and help (you can contact me if you like, I think repeatedly hitting someone on fire is very much smelling of douchebaggery). Good communications fixes most problems.

    As long as every alliance is aware that other people may not appreciate their behaviour and that there may be consequences for stuff, no harm no foul, it's a war game, on we go.

    What I really really dislike is people throwing the bully word around, bullies are people who traumatise other people in real life until they're scared to go outside or to school/college etc and make their lives utterly miserable, leading to people self-harming, suicides and all sorts of seriously serious stuff.

    Hitting a burning castle on a pixel hobby game does not ever warrant a bully title, That just sounds laughably silly at best, and disrespectful of victims of actual bullying at worst.

  • I have been attacked while burning 5 times last night, I do not think it is fair and i was hit    because  someone in a rogue sub stole their monument.

    I had nothing to do with it. I didn't even know the member in the rogue sub,  after being bombarded at every castle

    yes ,   (tim owens   of Dream legion   ) went to each land and continued to hit me even tho i was innocent and each time i asked,   they would not tell me,  so i had no choice but to open the gates.

    I think there should be a rule,  who ever is making the mistakes   THEY SHOULD BE THE ONE TO BE HIT

    not just anyone.

    This game has enough "Nomads" "Berimond" "The underground" "The blade Coast" "Robber Barron's" "Barbarians"
    Foreign Lords"     TO EARN GLORY     those are computer generated battles they are still fun and challenging.

    This could still be a fun game if people would quick attacking   those players  that haven't done anything to them.

    don't hit while burning,  that is just soooooo wrong.

    You don't get glory from any of those events you listed except for Foreign Lords.

    I'm fairly sure the attacker in question wasn't after glory if repeat-hitting burning castles.

    The whole thing does smell very strongly of douchebaggery though, Charlotte, did you contact his leader and ask "what's this guy's game? Is he really planning on treating me as a personal pincushion for the next few weeks?" and if so, keep message copies (particularly the insulting / rude ones) and find someone willing to go teach said person a lesson.

    There's always people out there that will take on people being an idiot

    one thing he said is that one of his sub's member stole a monument. That war right there. First boot that member out then contacted the leader and return the monument and tell them it was a rough player and ask to end the war. Bayby give them 10% of your funds?  
  • we do not hit burning castles in my alliance , during war no rules . or if your on fire and hit us you will need a fire dept . just play fair .give the burner a chance your glory will be better.
  • In my alliance, and most of our server is totally not done to attack burning castles. There are indeed alliances who don't keep the rules or players that don't follow the rules, but you can always text the diplomat of the alliance its about.

    It is allowed. But you're not supposed to attack burning castles according to unofficial tules.
  •  Charlottegreene the incident your referring to is due to your alliance at war with DL.  That means all rules go out the window.  Maybe if you actually paid attention to the MM that Stated WAR that the game sends all your members you would of known the reason.  Or maybe looked at your diplomacy you might of figured it out.  What Tim Owens did was perfectly legal in times of war.  However whining about it is not.
