ENY?

ENY, What is it good for? Absolutely Nothing! lol.

I thought everyone agreed we all loved it when we had that ENY Holiday a few years back?   Whatever happened to the idea of scrapping ENY?

About a half dozen players 'loved' it.

Another dead horse ENY complaint

Refusing to even sides is why ENY is necessary. Ive never found it to hinder me what so ever, even when I’m stuck on the side with a 20-30eny limit

I like ENY. Makes you fly different planes.

Nearly every night after ~midnight EST one country (usually Knights) will have ~2x the players of the other countries, often even more than both combined, yet will have less in flight.

When ENY is 20+ forget about any fair chance in the GV game.

The old argument that 10 tower sitters up all at the same time/run a mission and that’s why ENY is good is null at this point. There’s just not enough players at off peak for that to happen, except on rare occasion. The only missions I see at anytime anymore are Bish and few and far between. 

When there’s less than 50 players on I don’t see how it helps anything at all, and that’s also when ENY changes are the most drastic.

ENY is useless.   It's an unnecessary annoyance at best, doesn't work as intended unless that intent was to discourage players from this game, and a PITA for mission planners.  As far as attempting to even things out, you get more millage out of the side switcher thing than ENY on a good day.

Agreed.

Looks like ENY works as intended.
Some were not flying.... probably doing what you were doing, taking a while to investigate why they are limited. The simple fix, even sides.

…Ive never found it to hinder me what so ever, even when I’m stuck on the side with a 20-30eny limit

So this concludes it does nothing.

Yet somehow it’s “necessary”. 

[Eagler]

Plenty of planes to fly that don't need this

Too bad it doesn't limit active bases forcing closer fights of all 3 countries

Why is “even” the goal?  strength varies. the wars are won. the goal is to win the war. the goal is not “Stalemate”.

ENY sacrifices player choice and fun for the nefarious desire for stalemate.  It proves that Anyone who supports ENY is a sore loser, more concerned about not losing, than winning. This Explains why there are so many runners in this game.  Players afraid a losing dominate the culture of this game, rather than the brave trying to win. 
The fact that it is a cartoon should be enough to quell fears of loss. But the fragile egos of the chickens in this game must be protected. So hamstringing your opponents is seen a good thing. 

ENY is for chickens, which defines too many of the players that in this game who support it.

ENY is to slow the winners down. If there was no ENY it wouldn't be long before one team would always have the numbers advantage as well as the equipment advantage. ENY is there to keep the GAME even and as fair to all players as possible, that it is fun for all. It is a game, NOT war.

Well said.  I hate ENY.  Hate it.  But I understand why it is there, and why it needs to be there.  So we live with it.

This is it in a nutshell.
