Crypto vault and other BS

Dear friends, enemies and fellow e-citizens,
don't u think it's about time you wake up and smell the coffee ?
Stop arguing about a dead "game", about obsolete game structure,
non-existent economy features/opportunities and powerless
admins/game developers, that are not allowed by the ridiculous "Plato" figure
to even consider improving your experience here.
Recent changes in regard to the exploit of your data and
your online presence here in a way to financially benefit the owners
of this ridiculous "game", should have given you the message.
You either can't see it or you just don't want to see the writing on the wall.
The owner's effort, is shifting from trying to make you pay $$, to trying
to keep you engaged on this online shadow of a game called e-Republik,
so that they can exploit from your online presence, data and repeated
site traffic.
In the last Cupid joke of an event, it was obvious that you couldn't even
get the basic decoration without buying a couple of Cupid packs or
spending energy bars or purchasing packs.
Personally i have stopped financially supporting this sorry excuse of a game
in any way possible. The reason i continue to be here, is because i have
my companies (that i purchased in the past), so i can continue being here
without spending any money at all.
Now the owners found a way to make money out of me, simply from my
presence here and i start to reconsider being here at all.
We have all being deceived and received false promises of changes
in this "game" years ago...
If you want to continue to be here, it's up to you but don't expect
anything to happen that will improve or enhance your time here..
The only people that support this ridiculous "game" are only internet
bloggers and streamers that make money out of you visiting and
donating money in their web pages and streams and some no-life morons
that keep praising the meaningless and ridiculous efforts of this "game"
so that they can have a life for themselves online since they are complete
nobodies IRL..
That's the ugly truth..
Good night and good luck

I don't expect admins to do anything but milk those few players still spending cash.
Baaaa
"Recent changes in regard to the exploit of your data and your online presence here in a way to financially benefit the owners"
What do you mean by this?
I guess you haven't read this update
https://www.erepublik.com/en/main/privacy-policy
I think this is basic fingerprinting, that could be avoided by some of the more private browsers and if you care about privacy, you should be using a vpn anyway. But I understand your point.
not to disagree with your points, but regarding the policy, i\the only change in it in comparison with last year's is the company's physical address
ignore my reply, I saw someone mentioned it lower in comments and saw your reply 😃 good night
@jujich good idea but the game dose not allow you to use a vpn many functions are disabled when you use one.
I think that most players aren't even aware of what they agree to,
even if that is the only change (which i don't know since i don't have the previous versions of it)
pointing out the agreement to users about their use of their personal data is a good thing.
(Which in any way does not cancel the fact that they have your data and use them for their
benefit financial or otherwise)
Haleluja!
Praise the Lord!
Amen! 😛

You spoke very harshly and hit the truth in face and while i can't argue with that, just wanted to say this place is more a social site, a gathering place of friends, than a game to me 😁 we abandoned the game many years ago.
And despite all of that, every one here still has a reason, You still have a reason mentioned too.
And this article will probably get deleted soon.
I think that most people socialize with other players through other communication platforms
that are outside the game such as Telegram and Discord servers..
I am not socializing with anyone in here.
The only reason i continue to be here is because it costs me nothing
except a few clicks every day.
As for the article being deleted it wouldn't be the first time,
yes it has happened to me in the past but i continued to publish my articles
no matter what...
Valentine event was pretty much extortion for the decoration. Last year same event required 400 gifts for the third one, this time: 600.
Very disappointing. To say the least.
And things will most likely only go downhill from here...
93k pp, 560 gifts 😁) that was including the 2 free keys.
Fact checked for truth.

"In the last Cupid joke of an event, it was obvious that you couldn't even

I'm so happy that i've spent 40e in order to get the 3rd Cupid's Decoration in my profile! Sadly hadn't have enough gifts to receive it, so i had to spend money from my wallet..
I don't disagree. Game admins are awful. I can't imagine anyone arguing with that.
Even if admins wanted to improve this thing that we call game,
the owners wouldn't approve since it would raise costs and all they are focused on
is not spending money to improve it but squeeze every last penny they can out of all of us...
Truth
I completely agree with you, I like his way of thinking. V+ E+

"The reason i continue to be here, is because i have

Its almost the same as giving money. Because you make the game work with what you make in you factories. If you dont like the game, stop playing or keep playing and shut up.
I come everyday for 2 minutes, get my clicks (work, train, buy gold, sell shit and fight) and bye-bye until the next day. Most of us do the same. We are keeping the game work but at leas we dont complain. This type of article is as old as my account...
You never played the game like i and other players have...
So why all the hate ??
I am ok with good intentioned critique but you are telling me to shut up,
so i will answer to you in the same way that you addressed me..
Your true patriot dmg is a joke, your strength is lower than mine although you
started the game 2 years before i did and you are lvl 269 after playing this game for 13 years..
You were always a 2 click non paying, insignificant player that was and still is freeloader..
You are irrelevant..
Go play backgammon, you are in no position to address issues that involve people
that have payed good money, so you can play congressman for free...
First, not everyone has money to have stats. My work in this game was for 5 years as a drill sergeant and day-night wall watcher on battles. I was on IRC 4-8 hours helping new players settle in. I did my bit in full for the game. Not to mention getting donations for the new players, food and weapons etc.
I didn't even look at your profile, cuz it matters not what stats you have. Now I know what type of person you are and player. Some tank, some don't. I don't, I had no interest in tanking. My pleasure was helping new players get stronger, understanding the game and not leaving the game after a day.
Now, every month there is someone complaining about how dead is this game. Its started dyeing the day everyone started moving from IRC to discord or telegram or others platforms. Its dead and it will never be what it was when there was a wall.
As you like you to complain about a dead game, I like to tell people to shut up and play or leave. The game is dead.
Save your energy for the day they shut down the servers.
"If you dont like the game, stop playing or keep playing and shut up."
…or, alternately, keep playing and don't shut up, which I think is what the author has elected to do.
pretty sure once you've paid admin, you at least get to complain if nothing else
me, I've never given them so much as the time of day, but I know I'll complain if I want to
plus as you sort of point out, if there's no complaining there won't be much media...
As I said to my fellow player, I like to complain about people complaining about a dead game. Its dead.
I was in the Greek new players academy, second in command and did exactly what you claimed you did,
plus i purchased and payed $$ to maintain the production of weapons and the payment of wages to new
players in the game out of my own pocket.
Yes i was in IRC and Team Speak servers as well and i still have achieved what you see in my profile.
I payed real $$ not only for my account but to help the Greek player base.
However unlike you i am respectful towards others.
So if you don''t like what i have to say, you can just move on and do your thing.
Telling me and others like me to shut up, is not only inappropriate and rude but also arrogant.
You are still commenting here in an effort to be relevant and somehow a judge of who has a right to complain..
You are at best a "has been" that was always a freeloader on others, even when you were just
"organizing donations" LOOOL
In fact you are not a "has been" you are a "never was" !!
Now go play some backgammon..
lol... My bad, I forgot the rule of erepublik, "bow your head to players that put more money in the game than you". I will take my words back, so, pls keep complaining!!!
Backgammon
VOTE GOOD LUCK 🙂
You are in the hotel California.
Very true..
slava hunkakaricumiko!
The biggest disappointment this game has had is the people running it.
Unfortunately you are absolutely right
Could not agree more. They do not even try to give a shit. Just grab as much money as possible.
the ultimate
'grifters"
you are saying the truth, very correct!
its sad, but its still true.
as for me, i thankfully use erepublik in order to socialize with my friends, kinda like FB, but more intimate and relaxed.
and i also use the game for the political part of the game, work, and for posting articles.
other than that, i wish for new things to be added in the game, but i know that the devs wont do it at all.
so im just chilling in here.
I feel you friend, we are just trying to make lemonade out of the lemons we are given...
I really wish that they had chosen a different path so we wouldn't be having conversations
and articles like this..
Lucky for you, you use this "game" to socialize with your friends
Respect o7
Not a red cent for Admin.
Call for all presidentz. Do not open a war for a week or more ! Let's show to Plato how serious we are about our requests for meaningful changes in game dynamics.
Without e-worldwide boycott, they will never give a sheet.
The only people that support this ridiculous "game" are only internet
bloggers and streamers that make money out of you visiting and
donating money in their web pages and streams and some no-life morons
that keep praising the meaningless and ridiculous efforts of this "game"
so that they can have a life for themselves online since they are complete
nobodies IRL..
That's the ugly truth..
x33. xDD

It's true, this event was very difficult, I only spent on the small pack but it gave almost nothing, and the others were very expensive so I had to spend a lot of bars to complete the first mission, let alone complete missions.
We need to talk about a huge stop in the game, like for a month. no TWs, no Packs buying, Something like that, to send a clear message to plato.
