I mean, if the owner didn't bother to somehow respond to BretGov for a week or didn't even log into the game for the time frame and didn't take notice about the base getting removed, Bretonia is just as dead now as it was one week before, except for people having been able to shoot at Bretonian siege ships.
Space Tamagochi is fun, but you can't pick only the fun parts of the game and ignore stuff like doing the absolute minimum of responding to an RP comm. The moment you build a destructible base in Discovery, you sorta have to keep in mind that it is, uh, destructible. Hell, a few years ago people paid both the lawfuls for protection and the unlawfuls for not getting sieged.
It's really not Darius' job to wait months for someone to potentially respond or not. It's actually the job of the PoB owner to take care of the PoB, both ingame and forum-wise, simply to prevent situations like these.
