Players should not be allowed to find loopholes in the game mechanics and abuse them in such ways. This is stepping into manipulating the code and even hacking, which I believed to be against game rules. This should apply to be raiders and defenders, and I'd hope that either the admins fix the bug, or the mods punish those who abuse it. It is not fair for certain players to know how to manipulate the game code and others not - this is causing a clear INjustice in the game, contrary to UDL's motto "Justice shall not be abandoned".

Of course, that's just my opinion.
While we're at we could get rid of WA Delegates, then both sides couldn't use that either! Hardly good logic on this, the whole Military Gameplay world is based on an exploitation of the game system and nothing grossly malicious is achieved with magic endorsements contrary to Tikal's fearmongering.

If this glitch is absolutely needed to maintain WA delegates (as many of you claim), why not remove it and keep delegates? Come on, you can raid the old fashioned way without having devious cheating and/or backhanded tactics being used. I could be wrong though. I think raiding is a bullying game that can take out entire well-founded regions that have no founders and hijack places and screw with people. Why have the glitch if it makes raiding easier? Doesn't that take the fairness out of the game? There's no point of having this glitch if it makes the raiders have an unfair advantage against defenders. Same on the other end. If it makes both sides just dangerously devoted to each other's targets and gets nasty, then the raiding mission will have destroyed not just a region but players too. The mods don't want to get involved in such games unless someone starts firing bombs at the other side. When the mods get involved, the whole thing shuts down. Who wants that?
I'm not a raider/defender. I'm against raiding. But quite frankly, if this gets used more frequently, there will be more accusations of using unfair tactics (however legal they may be) and the possibility of personal attacks may go up too. Who wants that?
P.S. If this code were to die and WA delegates went too, can we remove Liberate proposals too?

It is worrying though that the ability to use technical code stuff is almost required to compete in the gameplay world, with recruitment scripts/tools, the data dump, and now this.

When we raiders find the code that allows us to pre-ban you guys, are ya'll going to have a small conniption fit? When does the code abuse go too far? Will it ultimately be that defenders will be endorsing pointmen and raider leads banning them before they even set foot in the region?
Where does the line get draw if not at this "pre-endorsing" tactic?
