Mommy's boys of Manwing: "try it noobs" results in bans before war

Sophomoric? Perhaps. Fun? Undoubtedly.

I wouldn't call it a decoy base. I'd suspect the opposing clan looks at it...then moves on without much thought. A decoy base would be one that is believable enough to waste the opposing clan's time scouting.

No? Most start as newbie/newb... Few start as noob.. There is a big difference

I would and, in fact, do!
It is a decoy in the sense that it is a warbase that is not my true warbase. Its fun for me to keep up and makes my true base unscoutable.

For the record, I have a warbase that fits your description of a decoy as well. I've only used it twice because I just have too much fun with the other one.

Our clan motto (not to be confused with our offical clan catchphrase) is "FOR LOOT AND LULZ!" and we take both very seriously.

Fair enough. You do realize the other clan has a full 24 hours on war day to look at your final product. That's when we scout bases at least. I suppose for some clans it just throws a monkey wrench into things.

I'm kinda impressed you got banned for that.

We had a clan last week who a few had bases that said Go F Yourself and they were not banned.
I'd post the screen shot but I don't want to get banned lol :D

Only thing we look at on prep day is how the CCs are filling up... I can still see that with a decoy base so yo ahead and leave your decoy out!

100% agreed! Why play with fire when it's so easy not to do any of that stuff at all?

The logic doesn't make sense to me either.

I have reported several sexually explicit / offensive / vulgar bases during prep day and nothing ever became of any of those....
May be they see one as bullying and are worried about legal implications while the other is just explicit and covered by the rating.

We too have had these F.... You bases and men's junk and nothing happened to our opponent. Kept tabs for about a week after.......nothing. Their collectors were always emptied and builders busy. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to who or what. Still anyone that has a base like this is just asking for trouble in my opinion.
