Re: Cheaters always seem to prosper
Just gonna put this out there...
Using a one-man out-of-tag-but-in-another-tag planet to declare war on your tag to reduce the potential benefits of your opposition is not abuse.
Sure, it's not using the feature in the way it's intended, but it isn't exploiting a bug. It's actually a pretty clever way of using the facilities to the best of your ability.
People are pretty quick to say that playing PA in a way that's unexpected or puts somebody else at a disadvantage is 'abuse', but a lot of the time what they really mean is "I wish I'd thought of that".
Playing a game - any game - in a way that was otherwise unintended, to gain an advantage, is not abuse. It's ingenuity. It's being resourceful. Sure, unidimensional gameplay is fairer on everyone, but why should anyone be forced to play without creativity to keep things "fair"?
If something is within the rules of a game, it's a legitimate tactic.
