Thread: The honest truth (Fianna isn't trolling here)

  1. #1

    Default The honest truth (Fianna isn't trolling here)

    I'm going to take a quick moment and set aside my entirely crazy online persona and be somewhat mature. Here's how things are. You can hate me for it, but I speak the truth.


    1. Evony does not care if you quit, ragequit, stop paying, or threaten to do so. You are one customer among thousands. For every one that quits, another will replace them. They are banking that enough serious people will keep up the occasional payment to provide a constant revenue stream. That's their business plan.

    2. This is their game and they can do pretty much whatever they want. I know this isn't much fun to admit, but it's true. You agreed to their terms of service when you signed up. They can change the game however they want, for any reason, with zero notice. it sucks, but there's not a damn thing you can do about it.

    3. Most of you are playing for free. If all the people on the boards who claimed to be paying members really were, Evony would be quite rich indeed. As it is, most people (including many who claim otherwise) are free players. This means the company is providing you with hours of entertainment for free. Your high horse doesn't have ground to stand on.

    4. Getting worked up about prestige, honor, medals or the like is stupid. yes, you invested a lot of time into this game. Yes, you're a brilliant strategist and much, much smarter than anyone else here. But so what? You can get as angry as you want but it will change NOTHING. So why put your blood pressure through it?

    5. Your time means nothing to them. They really don't care that you have spent 2354636363565336 hours building your virtual empire. It's not an argument. Other people have also spent time... this brings me to my next two points:

    6. This is a game. Games are temporary diversions from the stresses of life. This isn't your job, and for the love of God I hope it's not the basis of your social life. If this game has stopped being fun and become a major source of frustration for you, then quit it. Go play something else that is fun and relieves your stress. If you hate the game but keep playing, we must assume that you enjoy the stress and you get zero sympathy.

    7. A real world exists. While you're on here complaining about your poor, poor troops dying because the game isn't balanced, there are wars and genocides going on in real life. Remember how upset you might have been when the "npc nerf" killed off your ballistas? Did you get that angry when you heard about suicide bombers or recent civil wars, and the many innocent people who actually died?

    8. Anyone on the forums who says they're quitting; isn't. When you quit something, you usually go away and sort of don't come back and stuff. I quit band practice last year. I don't go back there every morning to whine about how they are still running it.

    9. Don't brag about either your Evony life or your real life. mentioning you have ten bazillion prestige doesn't make your point any more valid. Likewise, dropping the "fact" that you're a bigshot lawyer or executive doesn't make you an expert on anything.

    10. Your opinion means nothing. here's a list of people who may have opinions, in descending order of importance:

    -Evony Owners
    -Evony Managers
    -Potential Advertisers
    -Evony Employees/developers
    -Evony Representatives
    -Moderators
    -Players who are actually playing the game and not whining about it
    -The General Public
    -Convicted Felons
    -A cat who randomly walked across the keyboard
    -You

    Shouldn't convicted felons be higher up the list, say under managers?

    Text strikes now considered an exploit. Experience and items gained from it are now retroactivly removed.

    I just love how she put the player base at the bottom. If the player base doesn't have their voice heard, the top guys lose money. They had BETTER care about what their players have to say.

    Pointing out exploits is now an exploit. User banned.
    If something seems too good to be true, you're supposed to shoot it just in case.

    Unfortunately, everything in the OP's post is true. Except the Moderators, we're ranked right there with you at the bottom
