The Newbie Mindset ... For elders to understand... v1.5

Hi Friends and my fellow erepublikan players...
I've been silent on the media since 7 months... I never made an attempt to even write any article on ANY topic because I thought it was a waste of time... Now some really important issues need to be addressed regarding the future of eIndia i.e, the newbies who join erepublik...
I joined Erepublik by getting spammed by S H E L D O N on Travian... I can say that this indeed changed my gaming choice...
My First day was very energetic... Like any newbie, I ignored the presidential message... did the missions on the left... and fought till level 20... Used all energy bars... Gold everything... There was a RW in Kerela

Just Read this:The Trap for relating to my incident...
Now the main part...
I saw the map of eIndia and saw CROATIA and ALBANIA as an OCCUPIER.. My Instinct was to Liberate ALL the regions for eIndia and become a HERO!!!

But Little did I know, eIndia was very weak country... Economically...

I fought other wars too.. We lost all of em...

I was prepared to leave erepublik because I never saw any progress made...
Then I remember Ayush12121 came to me on the chat facility on erepublik (I miss that a LOT)... He chat with me asking me how the game was... We introduced each other and he gave me the GOLDEN TIPS for NEWBIES...

1. Don't use GOLD other than TG upgrade.
2. Don't use EB... Store them...
3. Don't fight, Just TRAIN...
My immediate reaction was "Whats TG? Whats EB? Why NOT fight?"...

He also asked me how the game was... Ad I replied "IT was UNORGANISED"... Our government didn't Notify people about wars and all... He told me that the wars which were going on WERE NOT GOVERNMENT FUNDED...

I began wondering whats that!

Our chat ended... He gave me links to guides full of screenshots... they were TOOO long... I was impatient and I didnt read em.
I didn't listen to him or the guides... I fought hard in the tournament... Stacked xp like crazy... I realised my hits weren't doing DAMAGE in the battles..
What I want to say is:

NEWBIES are VERY ENERGETIC and IMPATIENT... I've seen MANY of em.. They want the ACTION, DAMAGE, DRAMA, GOLD and that too FAST.

PS: I don't MEAN ANY offence to ANY player.. Just pointing out how it feels...



I can relate to them... Can you?

Then an Argument with Kushal Aggrawal regarding strength made me realise the value of it... I started 2 clicking and got a LOT of strength.... I got Gold by some friends and upgraded the Free TG... I took 2 90% TC and 2 50% TCs... I did 60 Strength per day...

The two clicking HELPED ME A LOT... I got to d2 and fought well... { before this shit division update}...
A message for NEWBIES...

Don't Expect a FULL eIndia very soon... We are economically weak... WE need time.. We need more eIndians to achieve this dream... Our political Leaders are doing their BEST to strike deals with our occupiers and prevent further threat to eIndia... We sent Bosnia and Albania away from our eCountry... but the threat of an airstrike always remains...
PS: I don't like pictures in articles... And I'm Lazy to even put em so PLEASE FORGIVE ME...

***Show this article to newbies who are excited... Let them understand...***
