Recently in the FFA server a string of multiple untagged countries has been farming my tag in quick succession from multiple countries, then immediately after self-deleting so none of the acres can be recovered.
A quick fix to this would seem to be make it so you can't self-delete until say, 24 hours after making an attack? I can't see anything negative that could come out of this? You can't join GDI or go on vacation after making attacks so why should you be able to self-delete?

Thoughts?

Which was itself suggested before prior.

Figured it was, didn't see it in my quick scan. Would be nice if admins would implement it if it's been suggested so many times and could have saved my tag tens of thousands of acres:(

It wouldn't save you 10000 acres. All it would achieve is give some other country 10000 acres because 90% of the time, you won't be online to recover it.

In ffa its quite possible we would get a good chunk of it back actually.
