It´s hard to discuss with you, if you think yours opininons are best, which are really not. You don´t have overall picture at all. Most of your posts are just OT trashtalk. You should use self-reflection time to time :). I think Path Pandora has some cool features and I can imagine that is future of Travian, because it solves many issues including issues in this topic. Basically it forces alliances to play without big coaliton. Defending farm it not thing, game is more live - players don´t need to save their armies to artifacts/WWW.
With the new features in Path to Pandora the folks at Travian understand that there will be a lot of alliances that will have members, who will mostly be there to generate villages for other tribes' alliances members for them to conquer.
Travian rates this as playing the account for it's own benefit and stepping back for the sake of your alliance, should not be punished.
This topic was already solved by this post. What more do you want?
