WHY THE WIPE?


Why does there have to be a territory wipe? Is it to give a chance to the other clans or is it to simply just re-spice the game because there is already a stagnation of sorts? Maybe it's just me, but it took a long time for the clans to get to where they are, and short of disbanding the large clans, the inevitability of the same conclusion eventually becoming the norm again after a few months, well, that depends on the ruling clan if they want to do what they did all over again. So, does the wipe do anything good? The Soulless after all this time come back and simply re-take everything from the warriors of Pangu? I hope it's nothing as simple as that, can't be something as simple as that. It would really be a case of being unfair to be fair. Or better yet, being cruel to some to be kind to others.

So the question is: What would be the solution? Though moot and academic because the solution is already to be done is to make owning just one territory very difficult. Like, for example, when a territory is defended via a bid block, it simply falls into the bidder's hand by default when a bid wins and no one defends it. Kind of like a time bomb effect. Winning a bid buys the territory and the defender, the past owners have to defend it, even without really defending it by still destroying the enemy fort. Not doing so forfeits the terrain. It may seem unfair, but isn't "ownership of territory" wipe just the same?

I helped take a few territories in my time, and I think it's unfair that all we did long ago has come to this. Lost! Why? Because the Soulless simply were able to take it back with us not being able to defend it. Lame dude! Really lame!
