In my opinion GA has hit a new low with these ABC/AHC dominators springing up everywhere. It's now impossible to play the game legitimately any more. I can't imagine who thought this was a good idea.

Hahahaha!! Automated alt doms to eat for all the non-alt farmers. You should appreciate that change, of all people, AL!! X-D

Contrary to popular belief, I've never alt-farmed. And my jail broke iPod is still in the drawer. Though I've been sorely tempted today; it's impossible to navigate today without burning pots like there's no tomorrow.

Um, that's probably the point? To get players to buy mana! GA needs some way to make more money, since so many of us pledged to not buy mana until they fix the crashes and/or revert to the state-based BG's.

I agree that the automated doms is an idea which was not thought to the end.
The positive thing is that it makes it easy to me to leave SC off for a while (was becoming quite a time eater). And if it remains as a feature after this campaign then I'm pretty sure that I will uninstall SC for a while.

Worst. Idea. Ever. I know of at least one permagreen gateway because there's an AHC Dominator that spawned... Somewhere. No idea where, because it did not spawn within cloudview range, let alone viewable range.
They also seem to have an unlimited range as far as capturing gateways. Earlier, I had an AHC Dom spawn 3 miles north of my physical location, which was 4 miles north of the gateway I was about to set up my work day camp. Granted, I can only harvest at that camp when I am on lunch, or otherwise down that way, an AHC Dom 7 miles away is NOT a good thing.
I seriously see no benefit to these automated doms for anyone other than alt farmers. Please remove them.

I also fail to see the point of making ABC doms unharvestable if you are "too far from your physical location." I thought maybe that was the one cool feature of this change, that while beacon hopping, if you came across a full one that a pea had left behind, it was like finding treasure, free energy. Nope. GA really screwed the pooch on this one.

Terrible!!! Now I have an animator dominator in my realm that's too far for me to reach! And it makes any neutral gateways become animator gateways. This stinks!!!!!!!!!!

Also, I noticed that if you destroy the dominator it comes back again in a few hours, but it only seems to appear when you log in.

I really don't like it. That coupled with the constant crashes and horrible lag that followed this campain. I wont play until the technical issues have been resolved.
