What happened to #1
Anyone knows?
He was #1 a while ago. According to pilkara he dropped 30% in roids and some score. I newsied him, and there are no signs of an attack, so the only possibility would be he infringed a rule.
Who knows something about it??

he means the "If I Sneeze On You" planet. He probably farmed, but didnt multi, as in, his freinds let him roid their planets. In the past they took away roids/score for that, probably happened here too.

alliance retals = farming
looking at the description of farming it does kinda make sense though:
"Any attack launched with consent of the attacked planet’s user with the agreed goal of giving the attacking planet asteroids or ships, without suffering what is deemed as normal fleet losses in the process.."

As far as I know the 'retal' was against an allied planet he had no direct interaction with whatsoever, and got 6 ticks of free roiding for it, totalling towards 1k roids. That's not a retal anymore - that's farming.
He was reduced in size and score as punishment.

PA crew seem to consider authed retals as "naughty, but not quite as naughty as farming". Hence the 30% roid confiscation in the same vein as Rabba's slap on the wrist for ship farming last round.
And for those just dying to say how just/unjust it was based on current hostilities with that planet, it is Dragons command. Now let loose your bias, er, flames.

2 options i suppose
1, kick em out and roid them dry.
2, make them assist others attacking without benefiting from it.
obviously option 1 is extreme but each case should be judged on it's severity

A viewpoint I agree with.I've argued in favour of alliance retals, as I personally would not like to see them put equal to farming.
However, you cannot deny that the 'alliance retal' is currently being abused on a grand scale in order to get roids to top planets, rather than as an actual disciplinary action.

Suspending defence for a period of time, low-priority defence for a period of time, escorting the wronged member to gain roids back from another planet.
Theres three right there, and i'm sure a little thought would come up with more ways that don't involve a direct infringement of the rules.

Alliance retals are not farming because the person who is attacked does not ask for the retal.

This is how authed retals should be handeled
<Maddix> fury wanted to retal a legion gal cos a rah member from a legion gal was doing a rah authed retal on a rah member in a fury gal without fury's permission
<Maddix> (if that makes sense)

The problem is that it presents a loophole to the no-farming rule. If authed retals were legal then everyone would claim them when closed for farming. A necessary evil I believe.

Closure/Deletion of account: removal from the account from the game.

New rule for joining LDK:
attack one of the LDK players with 1 fighter and get retalled.
Ok, soz, couldn't help myself.
Come on: we all know the rules, close that guy!! There are hundreds of planets that need to be investigated for all kinds of cheating, now for once you seem to have sufficient proof. At last. Act or stop the round and say LDK won for outplaying the multi hunters.

The planet in question was closed upon finding him guilty of farming, and it was decided that a roid/resource penalty would be the most justified course of action. The planet in question did not agree with this and thus for reasons that need not be made public, but are known to those concerned, he was closed longer than normally would have been the case.

And in this case the extent of the offense. I assume there was no evidence of earlier acts of farming, so closing would have been unproportionally harsh. Removing what he gained and a bit OTOH sends a clear message to the alliance; they can have their own rules but have to operate within the rules of PA.

Wow!
New code of conduct introduced kewl!
Just to clearify, farming pentaly now equals a percentage loss of roids & fleet instead of Close/Delete, which has always been the enforcment of breaking the PA rules, which are there for everyone benifit.
If so, is it depenedant on the attack he was caught doing or ?
If answer too both is yes. Then I would guess will be a very bad thing thing to enforce/achieve and in my opinion bad.

I am sorry Zeus, but I can not answer that question, as I am not one of the multihunters or admins, and because I have probably already said more about this case than I should.
However, PA Team tries to be fair in all cases that they handle, and in this case the decision was made not to go for a closure/deletion procedure of his planet, but to impose a score and size reduction. This is not a unique case or even a highly uncommon way of punishment, and in no way does this legalize farming or does this exempt people from the rules of Planetarion.

As PA evolves, rules will become more clear. There's a reason afterall why it takes so long to pass a new law in any given country.. Has to make sure it is very clear and concrete, and pays attention to every little detail...
My opinion.. well.. PACrew are doing their best without being oppressive.. Because believe me... there's nothing stopping them from closing planets on mere suspicion, except of course for their sense of fairness, and I'm sure they don't want to be oppressors.
Bottom line: Live with that the crew decides... Don't see the point complaining.. Just makes one look like an arse.

Well, how stupid is that? I mean, he was my MoC and later GC this round.. He never condoned cheating whatsoever..
Pa-Crew is totally redicoulous, authed retals has always been there, its a way for the alliances to 'punish' members.. Clearly, it should be very easy to see the difference between real farming and a retal?
Really, this guy would never cheat..
Pa-Crew, you guys blow, and you've just lost ANOTHER player.
Pld you, way too narrowsighted.. *sigh*

and btw, NOT closing for farming is lame, it will just make more ppl take the risk..if the benefits are taken away they end up same level as the honest players anyway, so where is the exact punishment then?
