<div class="IPBDescription">Stay out of my area dagnabbit!</div> Ok in the closing minutes of a game on Caged, that must have been going on about... oooh sat 2hrs. We had a lot of abandoners when the aliens started losing. Marines started screaming useless crap about how we are so going to get owned, etc. I single handedly secured the Sewer hive and took out their main base (I s*** you not, Lerks are godlike) pushing them back to a new base they had set up in the generator hive. So to win we had to do it with Skulks, Lerks, Gorges and Fades as securing the 3rd hive meant winning the game.
So to make sure we were pretty secure around the map I was running around like a manaic as a gorge spewing out offense and defense plantations left and right making sure it'd take them a while before they could secure any one particular area. When that was done I proceeded to start setting up a forward Offense and Defense plantation just outside their base to give health to nearby aliens and to stop anyone from leaving that base.
Along comes MAB, mab is only in the game for 3 minutes. MAB does not know that I have painstakingly retaken and secured most of the map so of course he starts building offense, defense, and movement chambers near the 2nd double ladder from the Gen Hive room (ummm its where you intially get a RN if you spawn with a hive in the gen room intially)
"STOP BUILDING YOU FOOL!" (Censored for PG13)
He's taken up 3 of the possible 8 defense chambers I can spawn in the one area as well as 2 offense and 3 movement. After a heated exchange and him basically insulting my score (Its was like 9 - 28, but hey I did all the work =p) we won the map but I learnt an important lesson.
<b>2 gorges building in the same area will NOT get along too well</b>
Exceptions to the rule:
- The 2 gorges come from the same clan
- The 2 gorges have been playing since the beginning and knows what needs to be done
So if you just joined the server and your going to go gorge at least show some common courtesy and ask WHERE chambers need building because that gorge who was holding off marines for 2hrs is gonna be pretty annoyed when you start screwing around with his battle strategy

Call my vindictive, but some punk gorge just out of his gestation period has no right invading on my build area =p
"GET OFF MAH PROPERTAH!"
This really wouldn't be a solution for this problem, but I wish there was a way to destroy your own buildings and get maybe 1/3 of the resources it cost back.

I feel the EXACT same way.
I hate it when i am building my infamous 4x2 (wall of lame) of o and d, and some gorge walks by and plops down a d chamber and walks away spraying health. I HATE that!!

The average Gorges I see in public server is 4-5.
There is a kick gorge feature, just build a structure ontop of them. Unless they are clever enough to build a movement chamber next to them they'll have to kill themselves. If they are clever enough to build a movement chamber to get lose they probably ain't noobs and shouldn't cause any trouble.
Usually when I am a Gorge and set "claim" to an area, announcing I'm going to be the one building defenses in certain location, most the other Gorges will steer clear. I suppose I'll be in for a bad day when another Gorge builds on me to steal my land. I haven't had a bad experience as a Gorge to date, of course.. I've only played Gorge about ten times.
