Aeros I appreciate what your saying there mate.
Fact is I cleared nearly 4x the amount and began clearing way before him. I offered to pay him half and he said he wanted full.
Also, I still strongly believe he tried sniping this isle on the grounds of claiming back his losses if it fell through.

And I honestly wouldn't ask for compensation under these circumstances, i'd see it as "oh Merda! as if i didnt get there first, ah well bad luck to me"

Erm... he saw the Main House was Level 1, on a tsunami isle, a couple of days after it first came available. Now is it me or is that a pretty good indicator that someone is attacking it? Admittedly he did save Gornall some LWS but he also knew someone else was attacking it already.

Given this colowhore has almost 300 islands: 158k is only a few hours production. What a tight arse!
Pay him nothing!

Personally I'd probably pay him half his losses but then again he must've known the isle was being attacked.

Don't we have a pact with Valheru?

Id pay him, at least half if not all. You were kind of rude to him, and to be honest since the war I think we have been on the wrong side of colo attempts more then right. Hope we arnt getting a big head and all. Fact is he helped you clear the island so should be compensated for the losses he took.

My point being blazed is that he was well aware someone else was clearing the isle.
Then thought he'd attack and try colo anyway. Is that not also part of colo etiquette? No sniping?
Its like someone taking initiative and helping but then asking for payment afterwards with no initial agreement. Don't agree with that one bit.
I haven't got any problem with ego or losing out on an isle, if it was vice versa I would know I was in the wrong attempting to pull the stunt he did.

I'm with Gornall. He looks to have attempted to snipe the isle and failed.
Gornall did not ask for help, so if Doku wanted to suicide a fleet then so be it.

I am prepared to pay back a percentage. At the very most half, but only under the advice of the alliance.
Like eproxy said, there is no way in hell he didn't realise someone was attacking it and did essentially try to Chiavata! me.
He couldnt lose, he either sniped the isle or gets paid back some of his losses. Totally against this sort of foul play.

What goes around comes around. A good deed now will do alot especially since your guaranteed to come into contact with Doku again.
