Please tell us what you can possibly do about this, I know that you only are for maintenance and right we should not be selfish and should not force you to work more is you don´t get pay to do it, for now I think the best can be a simple fast solution, for this time I can agree with kql solution of remove temporary the bonus system, and see what happen, meanwhile you finish your maintenance with the game, and after all that we will see is it neccesary add the bonus again and is it neccesary calibrate/tweak it to make it fair later.

agree 100%

We can possibly remove the CP bonus and reduce the Capital Army max CP generation. However, we are not going to make any changes to the Battle Report window, so it will just show 0% CP bonus.

We will have to check it out tomorrow to be 100% certain.

that would be perfect. the war report in itself is a neat feature. it gives a really good overview of what is actually happening.

RG as a guild is good with what you propose Rune...turn off bonus...nerf capital armies. Perhaps the dual account issue is not as large as we suspect, maybe you are in a better position to know that, but i personally know at least 5 players who either have or have offered to have, dual accounts. RG policy is simple...no dual accounts and we kick those we discover having them. RG is officially registered as being good with current proposal put forth by Rune...nerf AI armies, set bonus at 0%.

Is it possible to remove farmers from the bonus mechanism, count only players that are battling?

i DO hope the AI horsies are nerfed more than 40%. as said, with the current population it is almost impossible to make headway against it. if the bonus is scrapped and the horsies are nerfed for 40% or less, we'd still be at the same spot or worse.
(added edit)
in any case, us darkies are mostly fighting the AI horse and not our real opponents, the players from the other side. one might argue that the if we're going to set values at 0, the same can be done for the AI armies...the war report for nov. 21st is telling. my whole day's output = 2 horse attacks. which is about 1 cycle's worth...

good horsie! but i agree...and bluntly without the capital army, game was over a week ago
