Why do you care? You don't see anyone else posting, or caring that we farmed a member that quit mid set. You don't even play in an alliance and represent no one. So why do you care? If no other alliances or people really care that I farmed an inactive member and a tagged member that owed us reps, then why do you care?
If people cared, they would do something about it, like suicide us, or start a war, or even mention it on these boards. You are the only person who does that, its rather pathetic to say the least.
let's see

PM me. I'm tired of this I PS you, you PS me crap that gets fluffty countries into the top 10. Only way they can do well is to take advantage of ghost acres.
NA's oil buyouts and FA chains were more legit than this crap.

Imaginary Numbers does not support land trading. Our members voted on it, and they voted not to accept it, and if need be to go to war over it.

Seth always like to find the technicality to justify his shadiness. Land trading is not difficult and should not consume much resources. I have never coordinated one, but just thinking about it I don't see any difficulty in doing it effectively.
On every server you will find him doing something dirty.

"Land trading is not easy, its not cheap, and its just as strategic if not more strategic than bottom feeding."

Internal farming and landtrading will drives people away from this game. People work very hard to be on top but end up losing to landtraders. Therefore, MOST RD tags should be wiped off the top ten list.

i do it in ffa, but i think it has no place here. In ffa you have 16 of YOUR countries to do as you like, here you get 1.
I am afraid that it will become like FFA, you trade or you have no chance at a top 10. The traders are getting the strat down and making it work more efficiently fast.
Now as for the people defending landtrading... PDM and RD who don't know how to netgain by everyone else's rules.
