Yes. As I said, I play on 1x harvesting multiplier. Based on what you said, you play PvP, which have (at least used to have) 4x multiplier. And, as you say, the option to harvest from someone else’s base.
That stuff just accumulates when you play the game.
Of course, as I don’t play PvP, I also don’t lose my previous paddings to malicious passers-by.
