Dont hold your breath

Dont believe this for a second - the EVONY game developers have failed this community at every step along the way. For example - in months past the former host of my alliance went MIA and posted his account for sale on Ebay. The whole fiasco almost ruined our alliance. FAIL = EVONY management/developers/staff
EVONY response to a major issue from a group of over 180 players, at least half of whom had invested real money in the game??? (180 players = my alliance and my sister alliance) - OK I will tell u the EVONY response - here is how it all went down:
1. We opened a ticket on the problem due to the fact that selling an account is a violation of the rules - no response from EVONY on the ticket!
2. We submitted a bug report when we did not get a response to our ticket - no response from EVONY on the bug report (yes i kno it wasnt a bug - we were just trying to get help)!
3. We emailed 3 different moderators, the server 5 representative and a game developer after we didnt get a response to our ticket or the bug report - no response from EVONY officials to any of our emails (3 players emailing each of those people)!
4. We posted a thread (see "Ban this idiot" - written by me) - we got LOTS of support from the player community - the end result??? a top thread with 5 star rating - oh yeah and then a forum moderator promptly closed our thread - made some smart comment and didnt fix anything - no further contact from moderators or anyone else from EVONY! Again - no decent customer service from EVONY.
At that point one of the players from our alliance was lucky enough to get in contact with the Ebay buyer who purchased the account (oh yeah this was AFTER the buyer of the account logged into the alliance and booted almost all the leadership and declared war on most of the top alliances). We had to buy the account from him, re-invite all the leadership and then put out numerous fires with other alliances who the knucklehead declared war on. Again - NO HELP at any point along the way from EVONY!
Of course, I/we are not alone here. All you have to do is to read the NUMEROUS posts on the **** poor customer service that EVONY is known for - I am not the only player and ours is not the only alliance who has experienced problems with customer service and been let down by EVONY.
But I ask you this - if a top 10 (at the time - now top 5) alliance can not get help on something as major as a host selling an account in violation of the rules - should u hold your breath on this problem u are having??? Probably not!!!
The truth of the matter is that EVONY controllers/developers are money grubbing lowlifes who dont really care at all how the community feels about their numerous screw ups. They do nothing (for the most part) to remedy the problems they create. When they do "fix" something it is always an incomplete fix and, to quote an old cliche, "a day late and a dollar short"!
They are non responsive at best to problems that many players encounter during normal game play. The proof of this is in the numerous complaints/forum posts about lost troops, lost cities, lost builds, lost research projects and lost resources. Then there is the NPC nerfing from a few months ago, constant ridiculous server lag (server 5 anyway), patches with no warning or explanation, battle mechanics nerfing - and I could go on and on...
Just read the forums - look at server 5 - players have been complaining for MONTHS (i think) about lag issues - so far nothing has been done about it - except for it getting worse. Now it is a daily phenomenon. Day in and day out server lag.
Oh well - fortunately for me I still enjoy the game - although I have drastically cut back my playing time and I will NEVER invest another cent in this game! After all - from what I can see the money spent here just goes to graphic artists to conjure up images of semi attractive women so they can plaster pop up ads on every site possible. Oh yeah and half of these new ads dont even say EVONY on the ad. Just a half naked woman begging her "LORD" to come and play. They advertise it like a poker site lol - but then sex does sell. But it doesn't lead to quality game play for the rest of us - just more money in the pockets of the owners of this site, and the continued crappy service for all of us gamers. Maybe that is why world chat on the new servers reads more like a hormone charged teen chat room than a MMOG.
The game is on its way down the tubes and has been for a while. My only hope at this point is that I can participate in a few more big wars before it becomes to *******ish to play and I turn over my account to my alliance and walk away from the game for good - hmmmm - maybe I will go and play EVE online.
EVONY WAS a great game - now it is just a piggy bank for the developers and a hassle to play. Oh and just wait cuz I am sure if a few players get on this thread and agree with me that either my post will be struck down or this thread will be closed.
I guess we will see...
