I'm loosing patience with the game because everytime I try to branch out of my local area in order to get bigger in a relatively un-populated area, I get all my new turfs capped by other players. Now I don't care that they have been capped, cause that's just part of the game and it's nothing new, but my problem is, is that on 4 separate occasions I've been capped by 2 players that are on 13k mob. I don't understand how nooks get protection from mid size players but yet the mid size players get no protection from the big big players. I don't wana spun like I'm whinging cause I've taken beatings and capping all in my stride before, but now I'm just getting frustrated

This has been said countless times. All I can say is, read the game name again.

I understand this. The reason midlevel players don't get protection from the big guns is there just aren't that many of us out there. Mud level players can of course take some good lumps as you've said. All I can say is keep trying keep mobbing up and exercise some good diplomatic skills

And at 4k mob you really do need to mob up. Every day

Scatch and claw, sure u can't beat them, but u can at least show them that there are easier targets out their.
Look at their comments for other players they have also done that to, and see if you'll can combine forces in a V if anything.
But of course above all keep punching codes👊, and remember all Their names for future reference

Also try asking them to stop first, that works too

Troggy's right, just look at his mob 4000. He is right in the range you speak of and I can personally vouch for how he treats those who ask for him to stop. Not only does he cap noob turf in a respectful manner, but when a player named Tech--who happens to have turf right next to me in Wilkes Barre--asked him to stop, he explained the dangers of the area he was in and informed him of how he purposely didn't take much of his turf often. Being new to the forums myself, I am in the process of mobbing up, but have learned through these forums that I have no right as of yet to attempt to move into the hugely populated areas...

Therefore, I sit near my hometown, mobup, and wait until I am bigger before throwing myself into Philly or New York let's say. Also on these forums I have noticed that the real big players seem like really nice people and like the way Troggy treated Tech, I bet the majority would help you that way as well. If for no other reason then that it gives their huge mobs something to protect rather than just sitting their bored waiting for somebody to give them cause to slaughter them.

Before you go into a new area pm the big mobsters and ask them if you can safely drop turf

Don't forget to build out of their range if all else fails.

Cheers for the tips fellas. I do try and mob up when a can, but it's not always possible. I'm currently talking to one of the guys that is attacking me, and the other, well he just kicked me out of North London... Cheers Ed Shooter 😒

I know what u mean, ain't that easy to jus sit there n punch codes, people often say if u have time to come on the forums u have time to punch, crap, sometimes I just don't wana do that especially after a long day. Stir up trouble with some smaller mob players. It'll bring the drama and fun back.

I don't mind punching codes, It's just I don't get many opportunities to punch em, what with work and trying to renovate my house! VADAN you've got me on my toes after capping my turfs the other night!😝
