Fish Plates

We need to establish an etiquette guideline for fish bombing higher level players.

The plates are appreciated, but should only be used on farms, wells, and cutters.

Sometimes I have a few minutes to log on and get baskets on a bunch of high end buildings.

Then someone will fish bomb them all and I have to log out and they wear off after 1.5 hours.

Then I miss the opportunity to basket buff the buildings with a 9 hour buff.

I want to stress that the plates are appreciated, but when you get to higher levels and have a buff schedule, on well intended fish bomber can throw a monkey wrench into the works.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to address this beyond this thread? (I'm afraid many newb bombers are not on the forums)

You're absolutely right, there needs to be some sort of consent box you can click in you'r friends list that allows people to buff you or not. I can see how this would be especially infuriating to someone who only has a short window to come and do their buffing/maintenance. Also if you ninja buffed me last night pls let me know who you are so I can return the favor (you buffed a mason and 3x copper mines with sandwiches I believe, it was appreciated!) :)

Maybe we could mention it in chat. I have had this problem before and it really can mess things up. Great Theard SirRoy.

well, mail all ur friends not to fish bomb which buildings :)

I think u r much luckier I'm. I had some friends who buff my sleeping buildings(whatever they r called).
people have to learn more about buffings......

We need a buffing etiquette thread.
I see they finally came out with a buff that removes a buff (in the rarity provision house).

Why don't you tell your friends not to waste their buffs on your buildings cause you don't want them? I think they would appreciate knowing.

And now you know...The Rest of The Story!

Or if you know the culprint doing it repeatedly you can also remove them from your friends list. Just saying. Now if their in your guild.... you might have a bigger issue.

well then how about a "open for buffing" switch that you can turn on and off? When it's off no one buffs lol

we put notes in our guild notes for each of us stating if he have buff prefs.

In addition to run only when buffed, a do not allow buffs switch would be useful.

I would never tell someone not to buff me, they are doing it to be nice. I work around it.
But I understand some ppl can only check in once or twice a day, and it messes up their buffing schedule.
