This Was a super cool game until players like twice my level started hackin' and attackin' every time i try to play. Meh. . maybe in a couple of years enough people will play that the less adept nerds will have a "fighting chance"

If you are getting attacked that much either join a legion to help you or go more into cloak so no one will attack you. That is what I did when I first started and I only got attacked when I attacked others. Most players in the game are decent people and I'm sure you can work out what ever problems they may have with you. This is a great game and I would hate to see you quit just because of a few bad experience's. If you have any further questions about how to better enjoy the game feel free to ask I would love to help ya out.

Also I noticed around rank 60 you stop being attacked as much.

Ya it's just in the early part of the game that everyone attacks all the time. Once you hit around 60 you start getting more and more traps and so players stop attacking as much.
