A note, au contraire, we do NOT all pay. Basic access members do not pay, but they do rep steal. If a basic player attacks the enemy of an unlimited then they are taking rep away from someone who did in fact pay for it, hence there is rep stealing
Disney gives peeps the free access...there is still no stealing...its a term we use when something we value is lost to us...but as its allowed by the owner of the whole shebang,,,I still stand on that...that its not stealing and we shouldn't have our expectations of others "manners" in a free- for- all type game, to a fever pitch....thats my final word as my posts explain meself , I hope......

Carry on if ye will, this thread, as I believe new players seeking advice will read your contributions and gain a wide viewpoint and, perhaps, act accordingly...as well as lead to tolerance by those who have gained the most....Thank you.

OK. Rep Stealing causes a lot of hang-ups but it is not the legal definition of Stealing that is meant here.

"Rep Stealing" is more about actions and behaviors and a total lack of home training and manners and the emboldened actions of the anonymous Internet game player. Calling it "Rep Stealing" is just easier than calling it "Rep Reducing" or "Rep Stop Acting Like A Rude Little Pratt And Go Work On Your Own Bad Guys."

It may not be stealing but it IS, in certain situations, downright rude.

And I have to disagree that POTCO is a free-for-all type of game. It isn't.
