See, what you're dealing with here in this thread is the mentality of the Cupcake Generation (if you're unfamiliar with the term, the Cupcake Generation refers to a generation of children who have grown up with helicopter parents who never taught their children there are winners and losers in life -- these are the kids who, when they played team sports, at the end of the season, even though they came in dead last, they still got a trophy... in life, everyone is equal, everyone should be a brain surgeon... everyone gets a cupcake!)
Unfortunately, this disturbing mentality has started to permeate its way onto Evony, a game which at its fundlemental core is about winners and losers.
What happens when a Cupcake Generation player gets onto Evony?
Well, they attack an HC, and when the HC comforts repeatedly for hours on end, the member of Generation Cupcake gets all mad and stomps off to the Evony forums demanding the game mechanics change so you can only speech-text once every 6 hours, or pray once every 4 hours, or disaster relief once every 2 hours...
In other words... don't learn the game, don't build strategies or find ways to work around some of these obstacles to make the game enjoyable... no no no no no... CHANGE the game to suit ME... because I am the important one... I ENTITLED TO MY CUPCAKE, dammit!
And there... you have it... Generation Cupcake, meet Evony.
