it isn't as expensive to declare on a small OP, is that true?
1 million for q50, 2 millions for q100.
They bring 3 people since Guild B (who currently owns it) only has 3 active members. Since Guild A is Kami, the Kara Alliance (or whatever) brings 30
I meant the number of defenders, including not only members of defending guild, but everyone who has joined them. If this number is 8 or less, attackers would have to match it. If the number is 9+, attackers would have to bring one full team and that would be enough to call it a "real" attack. Nobody attacks a guild of three expecting only three characters showing up for defense, unless a GvG match has been arranged, it's always a faction thing. And if you want to troll a faction, here is nice and legal way to do it.
This situation is similar to previous attacks on kami outposts where 1-2 (clowns as you call it) will show on the attackers side and more than 10 on the defending side. Of course respawn point are nearby for these outpost being harassed as you call it. Sadly it was not mention on this thread up until now.
I wasn't playing when these attacks happened, all I heard is some rumors. I'm not going to defend these people or justify their actions. Their behaviour was unacceptable from my point of view.
Owning an OP doesn't only have merits, as an owner you should take the flaws with it imo
It's all true, but you see, there is some disbalance as of now. Owners of q200's and q250's are well protected from fake attacks. They have high declaration fees, they have strong NPC guards, and if someone declare on them for trolling purpose and shows up at the OP only for a minute or two, they can report that person to CSR. On the other hand, owners of low-level OP's have no protection at all. Not only the attacks on them are cheap and NPC's don't worth their dappers, they can't even report a troll, because technically everything is alright. And as Bittty and Afriel pointed out, it might be just a couple of persons behind the attack, but it's entire faction that gets on the receiving end because of some interguild quarrels.
I want Code of Conduct taking into account attacks on low-level outposts, as it clearly has been written with only q200-250's in mind.
