Interview with a strong lady of a strong country!
Hillary Clinton1
I got some interesting offer to make an interview with a player from eIreland her name - ReMiiX. She decide to allow me to interview her and she have alot to say to all of us and even for those who say that "eRep isn't a place for girls".
I hope you will enjoy!
😃
1. Hello to the Party President of Irish Republican Party at eIreland - ReMiiX, thank you so much for agree to make this interview with me, but before we start would you agree to introduce yourself first?
Hello and thanks to you for the interview. My first account was created in 2009, but it was deleted because of the trolls from eSpain. Later, I created this new account. I have served in many eCountries, alliances, MUs, etc.
In RL I am living in Spain, but I wasn't born here. I'm between 22 and 26 years old (never nice to ask this to a girl) and I'm more motivated now in game thanks to an active community in eIreland.
Many people know me for beautiful things, and many others for not that good things, but I explained this many times in the past, and this won't be a new one I guess
😛
2. What you love the most about eRep?
The society. Due to my low strenght, I don't participate too much in wars (sometimes in air battles), and economy was interesting, but I am waiting to Black Friday for starting hard in this area. I am very active in politics, but every day is more and more dead. However, everyday I know new players who surprise me greatly and with some of them I talk daily. For example, a couple days ago Verzus (erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/1818587) wrote me, I had no idea who he was... but he was one player I met long long ago and who sent me coins from his RL country, because I am collections coins from all around the world.
Also Mahsa.S (erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/1911028) wrote me a couple days ago, and we made really good friendship
🙂Everyday you can meet great people here.
However, in any basket there are rotten apples.
3. Can u tell us about your unit - Eire Aontaithe? you are the commander but your unit have only 4 members
Yes, I bought it not long ago, for changing DO when I need it. I was serving in many MUs in my eLife, from all around the eWorld, but now I'm more relaxed because I can fight where I want, when I want, and I can help to my members with donations and stuff. In eIreland I served in ICA and Irish Army, and there are great people there, but I feel better and more comfortable if it's me who helps to my fighters, and it's not me the one being helped.
4. How it's feels like to be a "girl" at this game? I said that because there is no much girls here and i was wonder
I think there are plenty of us playing nowadays, not only to eR, but to many other games. I think there is nothing special on this. Long time ago, around 2012 I thought about creating a MU only for girls, with MaCeDoNa (erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/4576009) and Yetlanesi (erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/3393578), but we never did it.
Maybe the worst of being a girl is that there are some players who think with something that is not the brain, and they are a bit toxic. For example, I got messages about sending nudes via Discord, or calling me hundred of times for I accept the videocall with players I don't know.
5. Many people said more than once(so i have heard) that eRep isn't a place for a women i hate to hear that because we need alive the community but what do you think about that saying?
I heard that sometimes too, mostly from trolls who say: "Or you send Nude, or we don't trust you are a girl". I receive a lot of hate from eSpain, but that eCountry is dominated by trolls, so I don't take it too close. Wherever I went in this eWorld, I saw people very receptive, and always treated me very well, normally the same way as a men.
6. Why did you got the Erepublik Elite Citizen medal?
I got level 100 recently, and Plato gave me this after finishing the mission. I never thought I would get it, but it seems I got it. Now the question is: "For what?"
7. What is the hardest war you remember you had?
I never was in war module, and I never believed in alliances and that stuff, but I would say that this new period of CODE vs Asteria & Hydra is being quite funny and many players who never fought are doing it hardly. Asteria has been dominating the eWorld for the past 5-6 years... so now the situation seems to be changing a bit. I would say that this weeks has been exciting and probably the most important wars I remember.
8. You are here since Oct 2011(with this account), how do you sum up your experience so far?
"Roller coaster". There were periods when I felt important, useful and very motivated in game. And in the other hand, I had periods (motivated mostly by my RL) when I wanted to leave everything. Now I am in a good situation, where I can help to other players and motivate them with knowledge in politics and in economics.
9. Why did you decide to go to eIreland? If we look at your countries you have been you left eSerbia and then eUkraine it was so bad to be at those successful countries?
I was in eSerbia very long time ago (probably in 2012), and in eUkraine a couple times. I like eTravelling in game because I can't afford it in RL.
Why eIreland? Well, I heard they were quite strong in Air Battles and also a very active community, I wanted to try to experience. As soon as I came, I fall in love with this. You can't imagine how cool and motivating is this eCountry. I strongly recommend eIreland to everybody who searches for activity, cool people and Irish Beer!
🙂
10. You were a CP, MoFA at so many ecountries, eCP, vCP and the list of the things you were is very long, can you see yourself as a CP of eIreland?
That is a complex question. Right now, I'm quite happy with my work in eIreland. I just came at the very end of December and I am already Party President of the most important Party in eIreland, I'm Head of Congress for 4 months in a row, Minister of Immigration, and all this takes time. Some players adviced me about running for eCP, but I think it's not the time yet... maybe one day, but not this term, nor the next.
11. What do you think is the biggest problem of eWorld those days and if the community can fix it?
I think the game is Pay to Win, so the new players just try the game one day and leave, that is because we lose a lot of people (old ones get bored, and new ones don't try the game). Also the admin's work wasn't the best.
12. If you could change ANY THING in this game tell us 1 things you were pick to change and why?
I would do just one change, and it would be to create a new server, starting from zero. Everybody would start from zero strenght, zero companies, zero gold, zero currency... at the same level. Maybe people would motivate themselves for starting once again.
13. Do you have any message to our readers?
Just to tell you that life and eLife is like a roller coaster, but always, after the storm, the sun rises up again. I had eFriends who died IRL (ManuR for example), eFriends with who I talked hours via videocall, friends who sent me coins for my collection IRL... and also I met people who insulted me, who called me hundred of times, who lied... but just keep strong, and search the most comfortable environment for you.

Women taking over eRep. How did we let this happen?!😝
Don't forget next week is her 10th birthday for this year
Make sure to donate him lots!
Don't forget to AS eIreland and leave again the war because you are being eliminated from map. That is my gift 🙂

Brilliant interview. We girls need to stick together and show the boys we are as useful as them. Remiix proves that!
I don't really think you should show us that you are useful or not. This sort of thinking "of prooving yourself" just like irl gets you the thought you are being treated worse than men whilst it is the exact opposite actually.

ouch. you got me right in the feels, ReMiix. RIP, ManuR
very good interview with a motivated player. her enthusiasm is always refreshing. thank you for publishing
G'wan Remi!
Hail o7
Voted for the interview
I do remember her during past years, an immature girl begging for weaps, food and gold while changing MU and countries every week.
Hope this has changed since then.
No offence
I got bad news for you..
Chuchi I, you don't have in me in friend list and you know what I do? Nice.

Everybody is a troll but the banned and later marked as scammer one.
Good interview tho, have fun
She didn't say everybody is troll only that Spain is dominated by them. At least Spain's "performance" in the game doesn't refute what she is saying.

I briefly chatted with ReMiiX when she transferred from the Irish Aviator Project to Icarus through the Aviator Exchange Program we tried for a while. She seemed nice. 🙂
People say it's a pay-to-win game. No it's not. It would be if there were win conditions in here. But there are none. It's practically a sandbox game, so the only win conditions are in each player's head. You can still do heck of a lot if you just use your charisma, intellect and planning skills. Then again any game doesn't have to be played only for the win (whatever that may mean in game mechanics terms), but that's a different story altogether.
New players aren't gone in a day. They are gone in mere minutes. If no-one reaches out in those first moments, the chance of them sticking around freaking crashes. The odds were not that favorable anyway and they may not change if they get contacted, but still. Do reach out. It's vital. This is a community game. Do try to find one you can call your own. Do try to build up communities wherever.
Also write stuff. And read. This used to be a content-heavy game because people were so much into creating narratives on top of the bones that is the code. There was that MMORPG vibe around. Now it's pretty much gone. It's button-mashing -bot-automated button-mashing too. Seriously, that's what are people willing to pay to win at? A button-mashing contest?
Sorry, but admins destroyed the community game a long time ago by pay-to-cheat/win rules:
- CO
- AS
- Dictatorship
- IK
- MP
...
Again all those are for the military module alone. I get it, the mojority plays this as a war game. This is NOT the only way this game can be played though. CO are down, AS is a nice strategic addition; Dictatorship is kind of a bummer for a player that played the politics (only) game, sure; IK and MP only relevant if your game is medal hunting. There are many victories to be won elsewhere if you only stop thinking in account stats terms.
you sure you play this game ? x D
if yes, stop drugs, please : P
Yeah, I play this game. And I tell you this game plays as you want it to play. That's virtually it's one redeming quality. No drugs.
So strange that the game is dead then...
Dying not dead. And mostly exactly because lots of people don't explore it as a creative social space and only focus on the war simulator aspect -which quite frankly was underwhleming even in the glorious days of yore.
it is dead. for good.
social space and (war) game are both linked... that's why I asked you if you're sure you play the game...
What does it mean to play the game? You log in and if you log in than you are playing. So the game is not yet dead. But since it is unable to attract new players and to renew itself it will surely be dead, no matter how profitable it is for the admins at the moment. The reason why there is no content is nothing left to talk about, noone left to be convinced. The people are here for more than a decade, know each other's narratives very well and are tired of it very much. What left is button-mashing, to go against the other and take them down from the map with time and money-investment, as long as this is satisfying (how long?)
I can't write an article that would go beyond stating pure facts, which is the media-version of the simplicity of the button-mashing. Narrative is at most in how these facts are presented. But it's useless to repeat the old narratives and impossible to create new ones. Of course some (or many) players play "parrallel games" that have no connection to the main story in the war module but these have very little room in this game and are rarely interesting.
CODE is/needs a new narrative. The 'little fighting Ireland' is a new narrative. I'm not talking super-involved fiction style writing -which has its place too. I'm not necessarily talking ground-breaking original either. I'm talking perspective and flair. Build your experience of the game into a stroy so you may share it with those that didn't originally get to live it along side you. Write to inspire, counsel and guide. Write for the fun of it. Doesn't have to be game related anymore, if you feel the game on its own doesn't offer much to write about. I've seen great discussions of irl topics in the comments under blog style articles. 'No stories left to tell' is an awful sentiment. We've been telling stories for ten years sure. But humanity has been telling stories for millenia and it keeps doing so.
Well, in 2017 Pacifican-Asterian people were constantly telling how big diplomatic failure we are. When they saw Croatia, Turkey and other CODE countries becoming strong because they put time, money, effort into organization and improving themselves until they didn't had to bow to Asterian diplomatic superiority anymore, the Asterian reaction was the game is shit because they could do it and many of them left the game or stopped actively playing. They could still win if they would put only a little effort into it, but they don't. They didn't even try to solve ANY of their problems in Pacifica, they just went inactive and let to fall it apart. We are building an active community in eIreland, which is fun, but to know we are doing it in the middle of a wasteland which has no future is just awful. Why I invest money and free time into building Irish airforce, if erepublik eventually will be chatting about RL topics in outgame forums?
