For example you can put your alliance name in it yes, but in fact you can put anything you want in there, if you put your alliance name there, all will know from which alliance you are....

Yes like you misleed other players, so you will be safe, unless they come to know which alliance you are really from.

But if you use a tag of an alliance you are not a member of, that alliance may take reprisals and attack you. And using somebody's else tags is not very effective because you can always see which alliances you fight in the Alliance History. They only have to send a scout or flying sauces to figure out if you are really one of the species (for example, you could take as well other alliances).

Also note, that it is unlikely species said anything of the sort, more likely one of their enemies just saw you as a nice target, and then replied to your message to gain opposition to Species. Not a nice tactic, but quite legitimate. Why dont you name the player who attacked you, then we can all judge ourselves!!!

I did!
And I connected him to Species, somehow... Not sure if someone told me, or he was all the time around Tweety. But, what ever... Put that tag, so I dont do it again.

lol, then it was just a simple attack, no problem.

The old
Quote:
Why did you attack me??
question, is always kind of hard to answer, like "I attacked you because....(I could score??)(I am an asshole)(Thats the nature of battle games usually.)etc etc.

@Lou, can you honestly tell me that if his fleet looks like this
1000 400 1 6 you are not gonna send some apollos his way???, or whatever else you have at the time if it suits. Of course you are, so am I.
