Cobra , sorry my question did not meet your Criteria , umm thought this was AK Curly's post .

why do people insist on making personal attacks

Paint,
It wasn't a personal attack at all.

I'm sorry that you construed it that way.

I'm actually surprised that you interpeted that way.

I agree with AKcurly...needs to be fixed, we all know this a quirk in the game and hiding the CV is no different than taking your ball and going home......

I'm probably being too sensitive

FYI: I asked a Knit player to quit hiding the Bish CV as his waypoints had it going waaaaay back to the corner where it would be no use to anyone...asked him nicely and had a discussion about it for 10 min or so...no avail...so I disclosed to Wardog (Bish) where it was and Bish took it back promptly. I would expect all the vets in each country to please do the same if you have a countryman stashing that thing away.

I do not like the concept of "We take your port, we get your fleet". It is enough punishment to the country who lost the port to lose its fleet, giving it to enemy is a clear game design flaw IMHO, which leads to abuses which are discussed above.

It will be enough if fleet owner country will just not get it respawn, if it sank, until it gets its port back. It may be right to add longer time after a port recapture for gettign fleet back for fleet owner, well, half of hour may be enough (port infrastructure is dammaged, etc.), but NOT giving it to the port capturer country.

Now thats a great idea Fariz - GREAT idea. It would accomplish exactly what the people who hide the fleet want, the inability of the enemy to use/get it back. And it would appease the my side, fair gamesmanship.

Great idea!
