He's been a delegate of The Eastern Islands of Dharma for like, more than a year. >_> Why should he not have been?

Out of curiosity, is there any way to tell the total amount of influence that Jakker had throughout his time as Delegate (considering: other natives that had to be kicked, the password that was implemented, defenders getting kicked, etc.)?
I think the difference is also the fact that Dharma didn't have a sleeper nation as the point, but instead just a raider pup--if it had been a sleeper Quelesh wouldn't have been as much of a block. Meaning, if the raiders had (for some reason, Dharma is a bad example here) had a sleeper in the region for a long time before they would have been, well, fine influence-wise and been able to grief "properly". I don't think using Quelesh as an example of "proper griefing is too difficult these days" is really a fair example.

I firmly believe that the R/D gameplay has slowly narrowed to the point where very little occurs other than tag gameplay.

As it stands now, griefing is a month or two month commitment, but without any competition for the raiders. Griefing is time-consuming, it isn't difficult -- stop confusing those two terms; time-consuming is only "very difficult" for impatient people.

Hey it's not my fault the UDL couldn't get enough troops to Liberate your region that they did for say, Italia.
Yes you consider piling to be the most significant problem facing R/D at this time. But I am fairly convinced that you did not in fact read my agenda in the Reps Only thread considering your response to it, and as such I do not expect to hear from you to lobby me towards various solutions to the list of other problems I set forward that had nothing to do with griefing.
General Halcones wrote:in RE's case, TBR made a mistake and left RE with only a few endorsements
Incorrect. The Brotherhood of Malice made a mistake, not TBR. It was their operation. We were merely there as support. Besides, the plan was to password just before update, then refound. A glitch caused that to fail.

Full post can be found here: viewtopic.php?p=12092102#p12092102First, in reply to [violet], I don’t believe that large or complicated changes are necessary to make this game ‘interesting and fun’. Changes surely need to be made, but most would seem to be moderate in the greater scheme of things, at least as I see things. We don’t have to turn the game completely upside down in order to spice up the R/D world.
