CC I thinks you have another frivolous C & A abuse warning to issue. From what I see are 1 v 1 on diff maps with players of various ranks. This is incredible. Purely just something for the op to do.

WARN OWEN.

Look, everyone knows you troll. I made a relevant post, and you didn't. Just because I told you off and you ran off like the crybaby you are to go tell on me to your clan leader, proves what a coward you are. Listen, do everyone a favour and make some sense - you're sounding like an idiot. Mods, close this down or this will get ugly and remember, I didn't start it - I was being civil but jefjef is intentionally baiting me on top of again trolling/spamming. He needs to be warned please.

7 1v1 games against various ranks & diff maps is a frivolous complaint.

And this post is a bait and a flame. Very adult of you.

This is a vindictive complaint. How did this player piss ya off owen?

Listen, you really need to take the time to read before you shoot off your mouth again. I know you're MUCH smarter than that, and I'm sure you and your girlfriend alex951 surely could combine with something more intelligent to say but really, from the bottom of my heart - kiss my ass. This is a legitimate claim based on FACT. Just like the fact that you're an idiot. Simple as that. Again, mods lock this down please or my next post will be purposefully laced with profanity because I won't take this crap from some kid.

I'm gonna cautiously wade into this one here. Owen has a point. Just because he's a freemium doesn't mean that he can't farm. I'd say it makes it easier to farm because 4 farms at a time really do fly under the radar. However, I do think that the variety of maps is something that does need to be considered. I'm inclined to think that a conquest specialist is more likely to farm than someone who just likes 1v1s. Also, Luxembourg? Really? That map is almost as luck based as doodle earth is. It's an interesting correlation for sure, but I'm not sure all the indicators are there.

Coming from someone who's admitted farming before? Sounds kind of hypocritical to me.

Three new recruits out of the games that I picked out. People, don't be foolish and say something without understanding where this is coming from. First of all, the rule about farming:

http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=73745&hilit=farming

"Newbie Farming" is the technique of setting up as many games as possible (either by starting or joining them)

There is a pattern. All it takes for you, is to simply click on the player name, then click on "Find all games..." and you'll see how systematical this player was in specifically hunting down lower ranked players and new recruits. This is an obvious open and shut case. Watch all the trolls/baiters come out now and try to prove me wrong.

This will be looked into. Guys, quit it.

Update:
Checking bclark26ay's games, and not just the ones presented here, I'll be needing more than what we have right now. He still does have a variety of mixed opponents - veteran accounts, ranked players, and new recruits. He usually joins games where he has a higher rank and I can see how this can be suspected of farming. However, he does creates games sometimes and not always joins in. Targeting low ranked players is something that is yet really confirmed as farming, and for this case, it can be seen like that, but this can be also subjective. I need a substantial number of new recruits that he joined into their games or maybe some proof that he sends out invites to them. Something that would look like a "trap".

Nonetheless, in my opinion, if you are already no longer considered a new recruit, you should be knowledgeable of the game and whatever your rank is, we are all capable of winning. This shall be noted.

If you guys, continue with your "loving" posts as seen above, do not be surprised if you get any disciplinary measures for it. Don't bait and don't be baited. Not in here.

Well. That's not really just your opinion. That's the actual rule put in place by the site owner.
