I understand, but couldn't you say that's what America does? How many countries can attack our homeland while we can wage war on any inch of the planet? We aren't exactly 'locked' but we are almost untouchable.

They could easily wage war with us if they made it here there is a high possibility of us losing the war aswell. Japan got us good if they would have pushed they could have won.

Honestly, at that point in time, Nobody had a chance against us.
Japan took two nuculear bombs to stop. It was a terrible event in humanity. If Japan still tried to fight, we would have dropped more on them. Japan never touched our mainland during the war, so they didn't really make to much progress. Its the whole idea of crossing an Ocean to attack us, most countries don't have that ability, and the ones that do we obviously are very friendly with.
North Korea on the other hand can reach our soil with missiles, but they know we can reach them right back.

So, to compare Nyain San to America is probably the best solution. Nyain attacks, but is unable to be attacked back as easily.

8213 Dem Durrty Boyz Renegade Alliance 1587	Posted - 2014.02.02 20:58:00 - [1] - Quote So, the hot topic is district locking. But why does anybody care so much how someone else plays the game? Is it because they are righteous and are looking out for the betterment of the game? Is it because it just annoys them personally? Is it because they feel the need to police everything around them? I don't know. I get a lot of mixed singles from the PC Playerbase about this topic. I really am starting to see a growing separation of the pub world and the PC world. Over there, people complain about RRs and Tanks. Over here, we complain about gamemanship... isn't that kind of separation already the biggest problem in the game? Its almost like high-society forgetting about where they came form. /my 2 ISK Fish in a bucket! Darken's Testament SKIPPY

Roman837 Dem Durrty Boyz Renegade Alliance 107	Posted - 2014.02.02 22:23:00 - [11] - Quote No compassrison between dust and real life. They are not alike one bit. Attacking an enemy with all your clones, then locking all your districts is cowardly. And it takes away from the game. Its suppose to be about strategy and resources. Not broken game mechanics. Just because the Japanese didn't make it to the main land, at least they had the option to. Not some invisible wall. They weighed all the pros and cons, and made a decision based on that. What choice do we have? We get mass attacked, which is fine, bring it, but when we weigh our options to retaliate, we can't. And then the other side sticks their tongues out and says "haha you can't attack," Its rediculous. How can one realistically gauge the progress of. War, when one sides cheating and exploting a huge glitch to farm isk. Someone please try and refute that logic. Simple solution...after a successfull defence, your district goes into a state of "reconstruction" and can no launch clones for 48 hours. Also, during this time frame, no isk is generated from it. This way if they lock their own districts fine..so be it, but they can't launch attack after attack from it and profit from it. Maple Syrup Drinking Canadian

PC design is terrible and CCP Foxfour should feel bad for it. I have no issues with Locking of said Districts. While I like to bash my friends over being a locking scrub the truth is they are really just pressing the pause button in hopes that dust will be better in the future. Pretty sure thats why most of us play, in hopes that dust is good someday. [CCP]FoxFour> STFU beers[CCP]FoxFour> Erm [CCP]FoxFour> I mean[CCP]FoxFour> shit [CCP]FoxFour> you were defending me
