Join the new world

Old time was better.

I'd like to interject that the citizens don't completely build erepublik; there is still a decent amount of barricades that prohibit actual human nature from floating in: No Crime, no corruption, etc etc. As I said in a post somewhere else long, long ago, this is more an idealized world than a simulated one. My question is: would you ever consider implementing the more...shadier side of humanity, or will this remain geared towards idealism? The problem is that no matter how much you want to believe otherwise, whenever you insert us real humans in there will be some form of natural corrosion of your idealism, regardless of how hard one tries to prevent it. Will you continue to fight this?

Much better... But I understand the reasons so we will have to get up early over here for fresh news, specialy on elections days.

"no corruption" oh I wish that where true but as the deletion of cloning accounts is slow (no offence to admins I love this site) its quite easy to change the world through pure numbers.

Platonic knows as well as anyone else the cloning of accounts (not saying that you do it, mate). Either way, what he is getting at is if the general flaws of society are not implemented into eRepublik, then the society won't be as realistic... I think.

LOL, I was also about to comment about the "no corruption" comment. Even not including blatant cheating, corruption is certainly very possible in the eWorld.

I meant implemented corruption. Cheating is cheating, and that's another beast entirely. What I meant was implemented corruption: there is no possibility to shut down other companies, no way to negatively influence another country other than all-out-war, no way to harm other citizens in any way. That's not the way life works. Other than, say, bribing your mayor to lower taxes or something, there's not much in the way of a black or even grey area in the game. It's out-and-out-pure, which is hardly a reflection of reality.

"there is no possibility to shut down other companies, no way to negatively influence another country other than all-out-war, no way to harm other citizens in any way."

Sure there is, just not directly. And I guess that's point proven.

.....there is no way for a &quot😉ictatorship" to happen....at least as far as I know >_>

one party countries are almost dictatorships.

I was talking with my friend about it today, and we agreed that it would be fun to see different types of goverments. Also, I think crime would be a good thing to implement (give weapons something useful, and can implement police stations+make more jobs <i.e. police officer&gt😉

I do agree that its not 100% a reflection of real life, but Im not sure you're aware of all the sideconsequences of what youre asking for. We are human in and out of the game, and ther has to be limits to make it fun to play for everyone. Slowly they are giving more options so I guess everything comes at a point. Talking about the "grey side" as mentioned.... If youre not corrupting, influencing negatively, shuting down companies... its either becouse you dont know how to or because you dont want to. Theres lot of possibilities. Its a matter of imagination. 🙂

Totally agree with meiko I can imagine lots of ways to make corruption 😃. The game should give the option to apply at least economic sanctions to citizens or companies, there is no easy way to do it, so countries could create a legal system and judges. And even with this feature coutries could auto-regultate clonning accounts.

totally agree with Meiko and Kano

totally agree with Meiko Kand and formentera6. Well, not really, but I didn't want to spoil the trend. Of course Corruption etc. is possible. As soon as you introduce Humans to anything, we have a nasty habit of corrupting it. But it's not very effective corruption. I can, what, bribe my congressmen to ask for higher taxes? Bribe a GM to fire an employee I don't like? That's really about it. Undercutting competition or hiring out other employees are legitimate tactics, even if other people might not like them. Out-and-out bad stuff, however, is fairly impossible to do. Embezzlement, takeovers, international interests, monopolistic practices, all of these are more or less impossible. Which is a shame.

The Devs are Romanian? How interesting.

Assassinating the president is impossible too 😨 * Daniel hides his knife. What Korbin? I wasn't planning anything. 😛

This game is WAAAAAAAY too limited. Fix or fail.

CHANGE BACK TO OLD TIME!!!!!!

i dont get this game.........i want gold..!!!! and a better paying job...

@ Daniel - My Colt trumps your knife. 🙂

hi

What's so surprising that the devs are romanians Soren Mace ? We got lot's of briliant programmers here, even at Microsoft 50% of employers are romanians.

Now back on topic...the game is not that limited. A good feature to add is a option to make a donation invisible so it can't be viewed in profile, with this option we can bribe without being caught by the citizens 🙂

You're a brilliant mind indeed then, because hiding donations will also hide possible multi-acc manipulations.

@Solen: Absolutely. Their traffic population is the highest by far. Also, @Admins, Will Pilgrim started discussing thoughts of switching to communism in his newspaper article recently. Just thought that you guys would be interested.

my question ( as a noob ) is :
Is there any possible way to actually have democratic socialist nation ?

i hope on one day, each country can implement their own law.. @gobrowns1 : yah u can have a democratic socialist nation ....

at the top of the site it says "think you can do better".....yes i think we can but we would need to face what those goverments face I.E. corruption,speical intrests,lobbyists(same?),all around bad stuff besides this a game and i think some would like to be bad guys...not me i like the idea of being a cop

the youtube implementation is great, thanks

Hell yeah! Let the commnunist flag raise!

Marx, we´ll raise tomorrow!!

I´ll let the Brazilian people tho the TOP !

Good good!, this game will be great in the feauture!

"What is the most important aspect Citizens should understand is that CITIZENS BUILD EREPUBLIK. All the problems that you meet can be resolved by you and the community, a big part of the new ideas comes from your suggestions and, in the end, each country is administrated and organized only by its Citizens. We, as administrators, are focusing only on providing you as complete as possible platform and supporting your actions."

can you please keep your words? : )
