Again by that logic, we should be able to donate our roids to someone and also donate our ships to someone (a zik) but thats currently not allowed. No its not cheating as it hasnt broke the rules but that does not mean nor imply that the rule shouldnt be in there, just that the PA Team didnt think about it.

also pateam has already said that this is not cheating so this is all in your opinion, and not many people share it.

We've discussed this quiet alot in vision channels and hardly anyone (if anyone) has said they like the idea of donations and most regard it as unfair. We can all say 'not many' or 'the majority'.

most likely BA's boost has not affected your planet at all. unless you're in the top 10 (well perhaps top 20) then it really has no effect on you. so why complain that it's unfair? especially when it's already been established that he won't win the round with it.

Does it matter if its affected someones planet rank or not? That has no bearing on weither its balanced or fair or should be allowed in the game. You even had to correct it that it has likely directly affected the other top10/20 planets.
Also, what does 'he wont win the round with it' mean? that doesnt have any real meaning, there are very few if any events or exploits you could do at the start of the round to ensure a round victory. It only matters if he has got an unfair advantage from it which he has.

people complain about pa round after round that they want things different, but it's stuff like this that makes it stagnant. they might have to code it out to keep a few players happy, and the rest of us will play on as if nothing really changed.

It does give us an insight into how they want planetarion to be. If the PA Team fully intended donations to be used to get someone to #1 rank and double the value of the #2 rank, then they'll keep it in especially if they think its balanced.
Actually its lack of proper changes and just constant formula tweaks which makes PA Stagnant. I dont regard this as a change, its just an unforseen consequence of private galaxys where the loophole will be fixed for next round (more than likely).

Its not and that shouldnt be allowed or at least it shouldnt be allowed to do it in such volume to propel someone to #1. As ive said before, donations should only be available to planets below the average galaxy score.
