    Evony Questions/That Need Answers

    I Understand That Evony Is A business like any other and needs to make money to keep the game going but please answer this. is money so important that we have to pay to speak in world chat i mean come on i know you can win speakers and all that but really how often does that happen and then you charge hosts and such to address their alliances in group mail this can be done away with in my opinion.
    I also understand that this is a war game and fighting is part of the game so why not have a hosts chat so alliance hosts can discuss diplomacy in a closed confrence cause whispering is to weird to use espeacialy if the host has spaces on their lord name.
    Can evony clean out all inactive members that have not been active for say like 30 days or more keeping them around takes up space and resources that is becoming increasingly hard to find.
    if evony was to offer a monthly rewards program for cents based on prestige and honor it would make for more active members and more people wanting to join evony because it would force newer members to evony to spend money on cents to try to start getting those rewards so it then becomes a never ending cycle and members and staff alike would be happier.

    The speaker thing again?
    I'll summarise the points
    -It's a good way to get money w/o folk complainin' that you need CS to advance in the game; be happy they don't change you for every title you want to achieve
    -Serverchat would be horrendous if it was free. It's already cluttered to the eyelids w/ spam, we don't need that bein' 1000x worse from freespam

    The group messages is fine. It's a small charge and there's nothin' stoppin' you mailin' individually for free; that is a pure convinience option.

    Clsoed conferenc? You mean like PM windows? I always like that, but seems pretty unnecesary w/ this genre of game, especially since mail and whispers are free anyways.

    I don't know about monthly rewards; we already get daily rewards, but I definitely agree they should do a lot more about inactive accounts. As it is accounts that have been alive for a few days and built even a few buildin's become permanant fixtures on our map that we really don't need.
    Prestige caps to prevent inactivity deletion shuld be much, much higher than 1k. This is the biggest issue in the game (in my humble opinion) and really needs to be adressed.

    I, too, have always been troubled by the speaker thing.

    I understand that they might have reason to limit chat in the world channel, but seriously... 240 coins for 100 speakers? $25 USD for 100 lines in chat? That's ridiculous. It's not even funny. (And yes, I'm aware that speakers sometimes appear on the roulette wheel. I don't really care. The wheel isn't much justification for trying to squeeze your players dry, ESPECIALLY when you put crap like insta-resources and single speakers on there and award them commonly.)

    That's my only rant as far as the store goes, though. Well, that and Michelangelo's Scripts.

    Oh, if we're talkin' about price then I won't argue. It would defintely be nicer to see them cheaper, but I maintain that they should be there.
    Every game I've played that's had unlimited serverchat has been crammed w/ so much spam it's quite literally unreadable; thas jus' not fun.

    Oh, I agree.

    Unlimited chat is a bad idea unless it is actively moderated, and I really don't think that Evony lends itself to that style of chat. Some form of limit is essential, be it speakers or another, more arbitrary, device.
