Only able to drop freeland (So you didn´t build it yet) and after 24 houres.

That means if I want to drop 100K land, I have to hold it for 24 houres unbuild, before I can drop it.. Sounds like a reasonable plan, and it would balance things out.

And most important! Other people can not abuse it that easy.

Instead, perhaps a cash penalty?

Say, 1 million per acre dropped. That means slasher would have had to pay $40,000,000,000 in order to drop that 40k land.

Add 10,000 per acre food penalty perhaps as well?

That would be 400,000,000 food, $40,000,000,000 cash for the amount of land he dropped.

Or perhaps an administrative account could catch all the land dropped, and feed it back into the game through 3 or so land farms - maybe 5k acres to each per day?

That would be good as it would keep the land in the game, e.g. if i dropped land because i didnt want to be high (as i did do and was going to do anyway) then they could get it.

But if you just wanted to be low, why were you afraid of attacks?
[edit] And then why did you attack me in the first place?

No, there's no rational explanation for what you did. Let's just pass over it as a mistake -- everyone makes those.

Big mistake ;)

I do not think Admins should spread around free-land.. On the other hand, the sugg. you gave about the cash penalty 1 Mill for 1 acre sounds good.

Check this out for a suggestion:

Cost of drop land also sounds good.

ok.

How about the land that gets dropped can be bought by other people and the money from them goes towards the raffle or something like that

Promisance games where buying land is an option, are mostly easy to play servers, and too land fat.. Not a good idea

it IS a good idea if you have these noobs that drop lands for nothing, it will be a strat if you have way more lands, but this isnt the fact, so i say buying 500/1000 lands per 48 hours is good, cuz there wont be much buying since the playerbase is low..
