so ive come upon a predicament in my world M2
so, we have this brotherhood called the EDGES. my alliance is EoR and we are currently first. our only brother and long time brother, EoC was in third place.
we are currently fighting a two front war
while EoR was fighting one alliance to the north, the other alliance to the east started to stack units near our hive, EoC didnt like that so they attacked the op with everything they had, killing loads of units but losing all of theirs in the process.
the north and east enemy alliances started to swarm EoC for their crystals
they had nothing to defend themselves with
we had a last ditch effort to move our units and take the crystals from EoC before any other enemy alliance could touch them in order to prevent the enemy from getting any stronger as we are having a tough time as it is.
a fellow from the enemy alliance messaged me accusing us of farming....
I find this hard to believe...
we only prevented the enemies from getting the crystals so they couldn't have a bigger resource gain per tick and ultimately win the war.

what do you guys think
do you think that was farming? or do you think that was helping the brotherhood as a whole and trying to have the brotherhood win instead of anyone else?

let me put it this way...
were we supposed to have our units sit idol by an op near EoC and watch the enemy alliance take all their crystals when they are right next to us?
NO!
so we did what we had to do and now we are being threatened and accused for farming

i wanna know
what do you guys think?

The original question is NOT an example of farming and is a perfectly legit tactic.

Now for my question ... I was playing a world and was doing good , but lost everything .

Would it be against the rules for me to support an ally by building them op`s?
