Really, it was taken out of the game by the new coding. I'm sick of people justifying their silly land policies on the basis that they are trying to stop a practice that doesn't exist.
If you are small and hit a bigger opponent, your land gains are drastically reduced. It should be a very hard break if the bigger target bothered to buy some defense.
If you are big and hit a small target you get drastically less acres.
If you are roughly equal (15-20% either side) in networth this is a 'good' grab (as defined by the coding) and it is not a topfeed.
If you get 'topfed' and lost a lot of acres, the only real result was that (a) you were on too many acres for your networth level (hint: buy $2-3m more worth of defense) or (b) a smaller country somehow broke you because you had no defense. Lets face it, one of the reasons the land:land advocates keep no defense is so they can farm untaggeds and smaller countries all set.
The race to see how many acres you can get on no defense by farming untaggeds/exploring (then crying like a girl when someone actually does a good grab on you) is a crap way to play the game!! :)
