Dear eUnited States of America,

I have two things I need to discuss/get off my chest. However, firstly allow me to preface this article by making my point of view abundantly clear. I do not care if you think this game is dying, nor do I care if it actually is. In fact, part of the rationale behind this message is to allow newer players such as myself to feel they have an avenue into achieving something and enjoying themselves. Maybe it will reinvigorate some of you older folks, too.

Basically, don't comment Henry Pfeiffer Arundel if you're going to be negative as all hell. This is an NaCl free zone.





Attitudes of Certain Players

As a new player, who for some reason has an incredible amount of interest in this game, it is disheartening to continuously be subjected to the sheer amount of whining some of the older players seem intent on sharing. If you really dislike your time here, you know where the door is. Stop being a sour egg and preventing the eUSA from thriving. The game has higher numbers than when I signed up two months ago, and while I'm not certain if this is a common cycle or a new positive trend, you're destroying any modicum of the eUSA growing and thriving. Please, stop.





eUSA Forums

What a cesspool. I'm aware I'm probably going to be criticized heavily for making this statement, but it's true. Again, as a new player with an eUSA forum account, I've made just two posts. One in the introduction thread, and another in Bewbs 4 Newbs. I never did get that food...

My point is, the forums are, in my opinion, one of the most unwelcoming and uninspiring boards I've ever seen online. Ever. It's not that I'm shy or afraid to get my points across, but I've yet to see one decent discussion that hasn't been derailed, and even then there are few of them to even be derailed.

I understand that this is a game and there has to be an element of fun, but at the same time, this IS a game about military, media, and politics. I feel as if to really give this community any longevity, something has to change.





It's not all doom and gloom, however. I have encountered a few people in this community thus far that seem to care, and want to preserve something, and potentially build on it. While I can't list everyone, I can certainly offer some thanks to particularly amazing individuals.

Jimmy Cincinnati was one of the first people to contact me when I signed up, and it wasn't just a mass message and that's it. I responded, and he gave me advice and direction.

EdgarFiagro is someone who frequently offers me an engaging thought, and is also my mentor. He's fair and respectful, and does his job well.

Aramec invited me into the Feds and made me feel at home immediately. He spent almost three days straight listening to my probably obnoxious questions, and still stayed cool and offered everything he could.

Hale Kane and I have had little to no direct communication. However, I see him regularly in my feed, always eager to offer a helping hand and seems to be a lynch-pin in retaining new players. He was certainly a factor for me.

Of course this is not everybody, but these are four key people in my mind at this moment in time. Thank you again, to all of the eUSA. I look forward to your comments.
