Since when is being in a fence galaxy a taboo!? seriously.. all i heard all rnd, is this issue.. as i pointed to some asc player a while ago.. even asc had "some" planets in fence gals...
So your argument deosn't really count Zotnam.
And just to clarify, i do not regret being in a private gal. As my gal, went under attack from asc in the end of the rnd, and managed to defend excellently. If i remember correctly the first 2 nights one wave landed out of tons of lolwaves.
Now regarding the issue that, if we tried to fc some random planet.. its only because we wanted to win top gal in a "decent" way, rather than.... hitting un allied planets in private gal and getting other alliances to hit the planets we are allied to.
and after the fail... leave tag and hit the gal with even bigger lol waves...
anywayz this only shows how much the gal really was organized and succesfull.
