Let's list all the customer issues:
1. Forum moderators threaten and ban anyone who posts negatively about the game, customer service or anything they feel like.
2. Forum moderators have no clue as to the running of the game since the owners don't pay them (except in evony cents which have no value) and never will since their job is to censor negative publicity.
3. The game has serious fundamental flaws.
4. Most people who buy cents never get them.
5. Evony does not provide any support.
6. Evony people do not respond to emails.
It is quite obvious that all Evony wants is your money. Maybe it is time to let them know just how you feel about that as a customer. You can do the following:
1. If you spent any money on this game get it back by contacting your credit card company and asking for a charge back. They will give you one since you did not authorize the transaction as Evony did not obtain your signature. Without your signature, no transaction was authorized.
2. If you haven't spent any money, don't.
3. Spread the word about how Evony customer support is.
4. Let others know where to download the ****** code and post on other forums that discuss Evony.
5. Post on the Evony forum recommending people to get their money back through the charge back system until Evony fixes the game problems and support issues.
You can create as many forum accounts as you want by registering with made up email addresses. The Evony forum doesn't validate email addresses so do not use a valid email address. Expect these accounts to be banned fairly quickly but it is important that the message gets out.
If you are concerned about Evony complaining about doing this, use a proxy (google proxy) service to hide your identity. Servers in Canada and Europe do not honor US based DMCA notices or requests to identify individuals. Even if they did, there is nothing Evony could do anyhow as you are just providing publicly available information. Since they are bombarding you with advertising, you have a right to post on their forum.
A few other things to be aware of.
FoxyBunny the moderator isn't an attorney but will throw out threats of legal action and accuse people of committing fraud. Her posts are hollow and mean absolutely nothing other than to bully forum posters. She has also stated that charge backs are fine as long as you understand that you may lose your account. As of this posting we know of 17 people who have performed charge backs in the last 2 weeks and their accounts are still working so it is probably like the multiaccount problem in that they will do nothing about it.
Evony has gone so far as to file a frivolous lawsuit against a blogger in the United Kingdom, however knowing that it is frivolous they filed it in Australia rather than the UK. This kind of action is nothing more than a scare tactic and Evony players should know where their money is being spent on. Evony has also threatened to ban all of its players on numerous occasions and has stated that it will take legal actions against its players.
As responsible netizens it is our duty to warn other unsuspecting fraud victims that this game is designed to take advantage of. Post this message on all forums that you can and make a difference!
