This round we have seen a lot of "out of tag" defence, and the multihunters warned all alliances not to break it when they discovered this. Yet one alliance in particular must have chosen to ignore this, as they defended out of tag all week long against our attacks. This had to stop, so this saturday i reported a good bunch of players in this alliance to see what the multihunters had to say about this. We are now awaiting to see if there will be any action at all. One of the multihunters told me that even if the rule was broken, it was up to them if they chose to enforce it or not

Maybe its time to either change this rule drastically, or stop saying it will be enforced, as it is very unclear what punishment you can expect, if any.
It is certainly unfair to those of us who chose to stop defending once reached the 3 missions if there will be no punishment.

Personally i dont see why we need this rule at all, as you can see it just creates complications
and which alliance is this? I do believe that Apprime are also giving, and recieving, out of tag defence...so you are as much a part of the percieved problem
