    the game is still quite alive on some servers, others not so much, Forums are pretty much Devoid of active posters, theres about 20-30 that regularly post now.

    As for the log in troubles That might be the famed "post maint lag" where some servers have difficulty loggin in after maint, and at different times through the day when many many many users log in at once.
    my server ss38 had fairly severe log in troubles exp after maint a while back, Now its somewhat eased.

    ***WARNING POSSIBLE TL;DR AHEAD***

    It is sad to see the forums have fallen so far, Exp when ive made quite a few good mates on the forums, and more in game. But the forums are slowly dieing cause there is nothing "new" anymore, Battle mechanics has been pushed to there limits by many players (2 mill+ phract smacks and mech hits) and there is simply nowhere further to go, People used to come to the forums for info, to chat, with questions, show off reports, ETC, But now days there are so many "Experienced" players moving from server to server, they teach those they meet, and those learn the game fast, without having to visit the forums, so they dont join the forums.

    True enough most of these guys never learn the game as well as there mentors, But they have enough info to get them by, so joining the forums is "unnecessary" now. When i first joined the forums i did it cause it looked like fun, The players from my server would hang out here to chat, smack talk, waste time through maint, Waste time while farming runs were out, Have a laugh, mabey even cause a little trouble for the mods by posting questionable content - The wonderful Alusair knows this better then most.

    Those days are over, They had ended by the time server 107 came out. that server had mabey 2 people who had accounts and posted on the forums. (This was before the first forum change, long before i was a mod) My 107 history thread had 2 pages of posts, and 2 people from 107 posted in that thread, one of them was me. I did the same thread for my server 6 comrades and it ended up being the greatest collections of a servers history in the entire forums. I had players from everywhere post historys MOST of whom no longer play for whatever reason, But the fact remains they dont have reasons to post like they used to. People stopped wanting to learn when they thought they knew it all, People stopped wanting to mess with the mods when forum rules were enforced more often and many "popular" people of the forums were banned, I shant go into names, you all know who im talking about. (tho many of them did deserve it going TOO far) This is not to say the forums hasnt gained useful posters in the last 3-4 years, But the number per server has severly dropped. what happened to the guys who would post -10 mill burn war citys?, arch waves and hammers?, their First mech hit (10k + mech)

    people leaving the game has also taken its tole on the forums, many of the best posters from my server, no longer play the game, and the day that happened, they never looked at the forums again, I respect people like Eric0095, Acer5200, Alusair, AbstractAngel and many more mods who not olny quit the game many many moons ago, but stayed on the forums, and even helped moderate them many till very recently. They all embody what im talking about, They wernt just here because it would help there game out, It was for fun too.

    in the alliance i am in on server 173, Im willing to bet everyone has looked at the forum every now and then, But posted, I bet most cant say they have more then 10 posts to there name.

    In your first post you asked IS evony dead. For some its been dead for years, For others days, mabey even hours. but more will come, Its just a shame the forums never gained many of the new crowds to replace those great posters that leave.

    /endrant

    sorry for the TL;DR

    As I've learned long ago in employee evaluations... the only time you hear from people is when they have something to [unspayed-female-dog] about.

    Thus, the fact the forums are devoid of posters is proof positive that Evony is doing a wonderful job and very few have anything to complain about

    I came back to try it again on Server 173. But after going thru BP I have lost respect for the game. Server is botched. In BP I thought you could not be Scouted. I got my you out of BP email about 5am.. never started my game at 5 am.... but i logged in around 7 am and seen that i was greeeatt. Got scouted twice.... I look up my BP lurels are still on my screen, said okay might as well goto levl 5 with the townhall... I get the ... ' if you build your townhall to level 5 you will lose your BP status .. are yousure?' message... After a few hours oftryin Chrome as well to see if it was my browser not updateing. By the afternoon said okay might as well build it. Sent in a bug report on it.
    A day or two later I sent in a report, got response 3 day later asking for a screenshot. lol... i couldn't even show the mails sent and received and scout reports as they had all expired as well. Great turn around time there Evony Staff. Great service too.
    If you like poor service and uncaring issue trackers, pick Evony. An 'OK' game gone bad.

    BP is counted on the number of maintenance cycles your account has undergone.

    After 7 maintenances, you're out of BP.

    The laurel icon stays there for 8 days, whether you're still in BP for the last day or not.

    I also have learned about employee evaluations - the only time to drug test them is when they make statements like your above - report to the nearest clinic for your evaluation!!!!!!!!!!!!

    it is sad to see the state of forum ... but it is properly a picture of game too

    it is dying and have been for years - no new players and no merge to try get remaining players to find new friends or foes

    most of the new things u learn inthis game u have learned by merging - as u see new ways of playing both as defender and attacker.

    it is actually sad as this could be a great game - but it seem there is no real plan for the future besides maybe a few new items noone really need and new servers which die out in months

    so evony for those few remaining players can u tell us what u plans are for this game ......

    everyone was looking forward to something new when u talked about aether1 but as it turned out it was just alot of hot air nothing more

    so maybe for once try listen to u coreplayers - we want new ppl to play with - if u cant give us merge - then make a server port or something (should not really be that hard to make - and u should be able to earn money from it)

    zhay
    thanks milly for the sig
