Or why should we not have an xp stealing cov op (basically bribing pilots etc.)?
Taking away xp like this unfortunately damages casual elements of the game; it punishes anyone who does not have an alliance big time, and punishes those in casual alliances who don’t def well… and often don’t attack well either! Generally we don’t want to be making the game more hardcore than it already is as we mostly agree that the biggest problem is lack of players.

Alliances XP could be a different parameter from Player XP. All those features could be implemented to affect alliance XP only. Players would sum XP and never lose it. Alliances would sum the XP players gain each tick but lose in those situations.
