I won't even dignify your other statement with a response.

admitting to have the access is different from adding other stories in it. saying they would all be cheating means you already jumped into conclusion without knowing the exact truth, even without the attempt to hear the other side of the story. that is, again, according to your conscience and it reflects your personality. but i'd love to hear also from hanlong. bad thing is that he got banned immediately and was not given the chance to explain himself in public. or might be that he was publicly disgraced on AT by "other people" that he thinks there is no need for him to explain anymore. that, we don't know.

also, to note that it was only for a limited time that hanlong accessed the db. that can be confirmed by the threads i quoted from the admins. other than that specified time, the admins says he did not access/attempt to access the db.

again, we can speculate a lot of things that might have happened. but that doesn't prove that we are right. even the admins don't make such statements.

What do you think he did while he was logged into the EE DB? With his Boxcar access?

I'm not saying he specifically did one thing or the other, but I cannot think of any action he could have taken that would not be cheating.

nobody said hanlong did everything you said, even the admins won't admit that, unless somebody/you brainwashed you/yourself. :p

The admins cannot prove exactly what hanlong did with his access because their logs are not exhaustive. That is not proof that he did not do anything. I'm not going to go back and read every thread, but I think they said they can prove he logged in multiple times to the database.

What do you think he did while he was logged in? Immediately log out after verifying his backdoor account still worked?

we can think of many things that he "might" have done but those are according to our own prerogatives. i am not saying that accessing the game db is right, but accusing people of things that they "might" have done without the need to hear them is a different thing. those can be considered hearsays in the court.

the way you say it made me think that if you were hanlong you might have done the exact thing you are accusing him.

Yes and no. While I wouldn't expect people to remember everything they've done in this game (I certainly don't either), I think it is odd to forget people who were supposedly your best friends and worst enemies.

But this is not what has been happening the past few sets for certain alliances. They will run straight up landfarms, where one country explores every day, and then gets farmed. It is not a player that has quit and is going to be detagged.

However, it isn't right for a bunch of restarts to be able to kill a larger country as easily as they can.

What makes you think it is so easy? It still requires a week of being relatively unmolested before a restart can do anything but lemming.

Before these restart changes, once an alliance was tag killed they could not do anything other than be farmland for the remainder of the set. There was no point in playing. I do not see the benefit of moving back closer towards that. The game needs to be more fun to play, and the restart changes are a step towards that.

Older countries are still vastly superior to new restarts. It is not like restarts are killing original countries left and right. The best countries restarts are killing are countries who are sitting on low military because they want to stay in humanitarian range to farm. It is entirely within the power of most LaF/SoFers to be out of range of the restarts if they wanted to be. If they want to sit at low NW to farm/stock, then they should be at risk.

Having a friend kill you so that you can restart with a better country is an issue, I agree.

If you are just complaining that restarts are too strong in general, you are being silly.

You might be able to have 4k acres by the time you get out of protection, but you are not restarting with 4k acres.

I never understood the longterm appeal of D2, and I don't see where D3 is any different. In both games you get to the highest difficulty and farm the same content ad infinitum. Where is the fun in that?

What was so fun about D2's "end game"?

a) ~50 SoL Restarts + ~40 MD countries vs ~80 LaF countries + ~10 LaF restarts != an even war
b) LaF cheated last reset (and the reset prior, and possibly more) and did not deserve an even war

LaF had a clean slate this set, and a chance to prove they could win an even war without the aid of TC/Hanlong's cheating. I don't really have anything to say about RD entering, it is how the political game is played. But don't compare it to last reset as if they are similar circumstances.

1)MD had WAY more stock than Laf did at that point. MD with more time stocking should easily have been able to have the ability to break and Sol kill which makes it an even war, with Laf simply performing way better.
2)Your angelic side has planned multiple uneven wars and never wanted an even war this set. If you wanted one you would have gone to the bother of arranging it and an FS time instead of "surprise" FSing. Don't whine when you get your own medicine, especially when MD requested it from RD last set.

What whining? I specifically pointed out I'm fine with RD coming in. You are reading words that are not there.

Don't act like LaF had a tough time killing SoL last set. You pretty much wiped them out in the surprise FS (as happens so often with the way EE is setup) and were already farming them and restocking. 40 original countries don't compare to 80 original countries no matter how you want to spin it.

I'd rather deal with not having as many features but know that the guy hosting the site is trustworthy, rather than rely on a guy who's been caught red handed breaching the game's trust.

You aren't in the middle of a war where the other side has way more tools than you and you have no options left atm :P That's the other perspective.

I tried the Monk, Barb, and DH during the beta. Barb I found to be too clicky, and was making my fingers hurt by the time I got to level 10. Monk was boring, but I thought he could be fun to play in later levels since he gets the group heal.

DH was my favorite because you can just turn on rapid fire an mow everybody down =)
