Stop Complaining people!!

by ArjaaAine
+Everyday the homepage is filled with people saying this is wrong and that is stupid and its going to be a blunder.
Its a FREE game, where you pay only if you want to.
They are doing us a service by providing us this game for our enjoyment and entertainment.
It just seems like you got free food, and then you are complaining how it gave you diarrhea.
Everyone needs positive feedback... its the same case in this virtual world.
I am not asking for your unconditional positive regard but thoughtful appreciation of what they have done for us and what they are trying to do.
With a game this large, everyone has a suggestion... Do you think they can implement it all?
They are trying to find the grounds to please most people. They may not be successful all the time, but they have done a darn good job if the game got over 50k registered accounts in such a short time.
If they make any mistake, give them time to rectify or at least try and understand why they are doing it....
So So many of you are crying over the Trivia system... I want to know how many know the reason admins put it in place. They may have a strong reason to have it despite all the negative feedback or maybe the positive feedback is more than the negative one. I am not sure, but I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. You should try too.
Just like in the media, where crimes are highlighted and good deeds goes unknown. We are always pointing out admins mistakes and faults.
Say thanks to them for creating this wonderful game; Say thanks to them for manufacturing grounds for us to meet so many cool people.

Thanks admins for giving me something to do while I am bored at work.
Thanks for helping me understand the complex capitalist market in a simpler manner.
Thanks for having such a detailed Wiki page which is incredibly helpful to so many of us starting new.
Thanks for showing that there are no cultural boundaries in an online world.
Thanks for such an impressive monetary system.
Thanks for such an Incredible Company-Organization system.
Thanks for trying to make the game as fair as possible.
Thanks for having such detailed and enthralling statistics pages, which I can never get enough of.
Thanks for making us not create a new account for the forums.
Thanks for making the eNewspaper, I didn't even work this hard fixing my grammar in my English class. LOL...jk

Guys just try to imagine your own dilemma when you have worked hard on a problem for many hours and never seem to get what's wrong with it.
Or you solved it after hours of work and then someone tells you its stupid and absolutely useless.
IT SUCKS.
Give them tough love, don't hate them or despise them just because something is not what you hoped it would be.
e.g.
I hate the speed limits on freeways, but I don't hate the government for putting them there.
I barely know anyone who says they like speed limits, but it’s necessary.
I hate to work to get money, but I have to.
I hate to study to get good grades, but I have to.
So, to everyone who is being a b***h about what admins are doing, RELAX.. Give them criticism but constructive, something which will encourage them to fix things and not get pissed off at you.
Forum post
****Disclaimer****
I don't know the admins, I have never talked to them; but I get angry at all those hate news and forum posts.
I am not targeting this at anyone, but everyone in general.
Don't start fighting over this, if you disagree politely point it out and criticize it like a gentleman/gentlewoman.
Have a good eDay.

agreed i am getting tired of that being the "news" every day complaints should not be the top "news" everyday day we need real news about what is going on in the eworld thats what news is for
Hey, if the admins JUST CANT CODE a fking bugfree game, we have the right to complain. Many people pay for this, and the Erepublik team get their money from donations, they dont do this for free. And this bug weren't just small and single ones, they were FKING EPIC FAILS... And the response times to these bugs... Please give me some rest... And I personaly spend sometimes over 5h per day to this game as a soldier I think that I have the right to complain.

P.S. U cant even write an article withouth copying it before sending becouse u get and 505 allmoust every time...
'Many people pay for this'
Like Arjaa says:
'Its a FREE game, where you pay only if you want to.'
People who pay, well it's your own choice, but your not forced to pay. If we would be forced, the Team would have better tools probably and yes, then you would have the right to cry about every little thing.
'FKING EPIC FAILS'
I agree with you that they made some huge mistakes and the Admins also know that complaining about that is just human behaviour. But what seems to be the thing at the moment, is complaining about everything, and not just much but really EVERYTHING. And that's just whining! Be happy you can play this game, the Admins could also just shut the whole thing down, would you be happy then? I wouldn't because I enjoy playing this game and being part of this community.
Complaining is just human behaviour and sometimes you have the right to do it, but please don't complain about everyhting!
EPIC FAILS 😡
It isn't a service to us, because they just earn money with it. For this reason it is allowed to complain 🙂
It is just that many choices are really stupid and many time not listening to anyone. For example:
1. Telling in the blog that people have to email for congress -> just delay it 1 day. The blog isn't representative for the game anyway, so you can't introduce rules there. Besides that, 50% of the day the blog was down.
2. Just after the big bugs (gold/xp) they told everyone that it would be fixed -> many 10day olds on level 20 are still in the game. Probably the gold also.
3. Reversed comments and the rest hidden -> You have to click that button each time to show the first comments. Their reason is that 200 comments take time to load. Easy solution is to just use the forum-way to show them.
4. Restart a battle because of downtimes (Hungary-Romania for example) -> The battle was at 00.00 and almost to an end and they decided to do 'maintenance'. Worse time ever.
5. Telling everyone to use the contact form -> problem is that they almost never respond to the emails. They DO respond to forum/articles, so everyone still uses that to try to communicate.
6. They had two articles about maintenance and they were both removed suddenly.
7. The game is the development-site so it seems. New features are again and again implemented without testing, since almost every feature introduced is bugged.
8. Still no system like mantis-bugtracker. This way people can report bugs and search if they were already reported. This way people get some more information if it is reported and if it is being fixed. Bugs that would give an advantage to persons can be made private, so that it isn't publically readable.
9. Saying one thing and doing another without communication to us.
There are many easy choices that were poorly handled in my opinion.
