[Pfeiffer] A 'normal' eRepublik day

Day 2,508, 19:31 • Published in USA USA • by Pfeiffer.
An article brought to you by the Pfeiffer Presidential Library because I was bored.


For the first time since 6 minute health regeneration was introduced, I've not had any boost to my regeneration rate.

For two and one half days I was gaining 100 health each hour.

That's how long it took me to get the 500 prestige points necessary to get to 20 health per hour, and I wasted less than 300 or so health (due to life, normally I don't miss any).

Sure, my work/train takes 600 health, but even so...that's a long ass time.

As a 'wealthy' (lol not really) older player who doesn't want for any consumable resource in this game, I'm in a position to always use every bit of health I have...but now that I'm seeing how slow things move when you aren't spending money on the game the mechanical weakness of eRepublik is ever more apparent.

Once upon a time, multiple Admins read my paper. If you're still there, please take note of this mild complaint. I'm known for flaming you guys, as you often deserve it, but this is me talking to the handful of you who might still listen.

Take a hard look at the mechanics. Engage the older players. Talk to Iain and Misho and all of the others you've known for years. We still want to help.

Yes, I know this is probably pointless, but I had writers block and have been watching The West Wing so I decided to just type whatever I was thinking into this box.

Back to work.

Yours,
