Income from regional buildings
Why don't regional buildings earn any tax or regional income?

The cheaters/hackers have ruined the Contest of Mayors. EA is not handling this properly. I keep reporting the cheaters but it is always too late for anything to be done before the contest ends. The top prizes end up being forfeited eventually by banning the hackers but those who should have won the contest end up with less or nothing.
As I mentioned in another post, EA needs to withhold the results of the contest until they can verify the winners and then post them in the respective circles at a later date. If they don't have the staff to do this, then hire them. Otherwise, expect the hacking to continue and a big decline in the people playing this game.
As for the regional HQ, .... just a money grab by EA being greedy. Can't really blame the hackers when EA puts so many of these challenges for the regional HQ in the contest but restrict the HQ to be open for a limited time unless you want to pay real money to complete the challenge, or wait until it opens again and miss most of the contest.
This game used to be good and fair but since the regional HQ started, it has become stupid and the hacking/cheating has become rampant. Basically, EA has shot themselves in the face and are about to repeat with the Mayor's Pass once people realize the scam that it is.
I sent request to ea about this issue.
I'll put here part of the answer
'Please let me inform you that regions pay taxes depending on the population directly in the city hall of the capital city as they do not have a government building, for tax collection. Also the region city produces taxes in very small amount compared to the capital city.
As the tax which you collect is the total tax from both of the cities so the tax from the Region city will get added directly in the city hall of the capital city.
As the population in the regions city will increase you will see change over the tax in the city hall of the capital city.
It will become more noticeable as you get much higher populations.
For Example: 100000 Population vs 10000000 Population. The increase is very small on the first amount.'
I have over 3 million population In regions and at least by raising it by 300 000-500 000 don't bring one cent more taxes.
I'm I the only one who's thinking its so sad they have destroyed such a good game?
