The reason I don't hit t/ms is purely out of respect. I consider random exchanges, even most waves, as play time. I'll hit t/ms if they hit me, but otherwise try not to hinder kingdoms unnecessarily.

If things are serious or we have a mutually agreed war, then I'll strike t/ms as priority. I'll even go so far as not hitting attackers in critical chain alignment, so I'll look for retal vs attacker groups in tight nw proximity. I'm a nice guy and would much rather face challenging opponents than vulture.

All a guy has to do is message me that their kingdom is prepping for war and I'll leave them alone. No need for CF.
