Frustrated with eRebublik
Illig INC
Well life is good here on eRepublik for the most part, but lately I got some major issues and cant seem to find answers anywhere! Ive contacted the admins & high lev citizens to find the answers. At least the citizens I contacted got back to me, I herd nothing from the Admins. I feel my messages to the admins is siting somewhere in cyberspace space collecting space dust.
First off I can't see some pages of my buddy list and this may sound like a minor problem but as it gets bigger and bigger I find it hard to communicate with people. I have herd of others with this same issue, what causes it and how can it be fixed. Also before someone says it, I tried from another pc so its not a pc issue, its a eRepublik Issue.
Now my second issues, after roll over from day today my to do list doesn't update so a few times. I didn't work or train because it didn't tell me I needed too, as I thought I must of already done it that day. Now I got in a habit of checking this now but as I invite new citizens into eRepublik they have this same issue, How can this be fixed?
Last my biggest issue with eRepublik, I'm after that Society Builder Award. I have invited about 20-30 people into the world with the thinking half will get involved and stick it out and stay here, knowing I need 10. Now they have started hitting lev6 the target lev, but I'm not getting my reward in gold. Now I've asked and made sure each in using the link as they should and all say they have but so far I got 5 people over the lev6, they are like lev8-9 now as I waited a over a week to complain. Now I contacted support/admins about this and herd nothing. What is someone to do about this issue? With 7 people I've invited all sitting at lev5 right now and several more at lev4 I can see a bug here somewhere and you would think they would fix it. Out of the 5 people so far, Ive got gold for 2! This rewards is with in my reach I feel! Is this the reason why you don't see many people with this award?
Here are my questions for the admins. Why have a contact on the site of you don't get back to anyone or fix the issues? Why have such major issues with out fixing them? Last when do I get my gold? Yes I'm a money hunger cyber politician!
Thanks for letting my rant a bit, Im usually not this cranky but I got woke up at 4am because a water main broke in my front yard for the 2nd time this week. I'm not a happy camper right now!

I agree. All of those bugs you pointed out happen often and also annoy me.
They are bugs. We play on THEIR game, that they don't make us PAY for. They could charge us 10 Euros a month if they felt like it, not saying any of us would play IF they did, but the point is. YOUR PLAYING A FREE GAME.
There is a difference between a "Free to Play" game and a "Subscription" game. People play "Free to Play" games because they are FREE, and typically these games are not quality games and usually have their share of bugs and crappy Devs. In a "Subscription" game, for example World of Warcraft, you pay $15 and if you don't like the game you would quit and thus the company would not have your $15 so they do their best to make the game fun and attractive so you DO spend your money.
So simply put your in no place to complain. Your not even paying for it. You don't like it. LEAVE.
eRepublik needs quality good new players, it doesn't need whiny prissy noobs who cry about everything. Sorry I don't mean to be rude but im laying the truth as it is.
wow Armadez people like you are exactly why this place gets on my nerves at times, if someone asks for help about something you just bash them. People like you never offer to help or anything.
They do ask for money with the little banners all over for gold or storage so you can't say its a free game. What if I'm a paying customer? Does that change your opinion?
The reason I posted is maybe if enough people stat they have these issues it might get fixed not to start some sort of bitching session.
you didnt work because you didnt have a reminder telling you to? wow... try that in rl.. lol
He didn't ask a question. You want answers. ASK THE QUESTIONS. Simple. This is a post about how crappy this game is.
Also please note I said "Free to play" you don't have to pay to play eRep. Now you can pay to get items and benefits others don't get but that is your choice and when you purchase those items your acknowledging that the game may be crappy but your putting your money into it.
Im MORE than happy to help anyone out, but I lack patience for whining and people acting prissy. You arn't a king so don't expect to be treated like one. If you got a question PM and to the best of my ability ill answer it.
Also don't go off your reminders list. It is just that. A Reminders list. Just like in real life, you could forget to write something down. The best way to go about it is to just start memorizing what you do everyday. It is of course simple. Work and train and the occasional vote.
lllig inc again if you need help, you shouldn't start posting complaints. You should start reading the many many many MANY FAQs and guides people make and ask some of the Vets like me. Im a helpful and awesome guy to know but I have no tolerance for BS.
There have been many bugs lately, But some of them have been fixed.
I guess it's what happens with a relatively new game.
Dos any1 else have the alert bug?
it shows i have 3 more alerts but there is nothing new, i tried to fix it by deleting all alerts but still shows 3 more alerts...
I have had the buddy problem too...
can't see my friends list at all.
and its BS
