I have an even better idea, why not have Plarium develop events for players with different leagues like Holmgang. You just put in a bid to play with players that have different level towns. Then that way it is fair for players with different level towns to interact with one another in this game. 

I understand your frustration to an extent. However there is no need to interact with higher players. If you are yielding then use a yielding gaurd, and simply use a peace treaty on your town. Otherwise there is no need to interact with others.

The problem is interacting with these so-called higher level players according to the games influence points causes and breeds discontent. From my personal experience for over 4 years playing this game, these so-called higher level players are mostly very arrogant towards other lower level players. Plarium Global Ltd. 'definitely' needs to seperate higher level players from lower level players some way so everyone can play a undistracted game.  Lower level players should barely interact with higher level players in events.
