War Teams Just Staying Under Shield
This needs to be addressed, getting tired of teams staying under shield for hours when leading, we’ve lost a few wars because of this bug in the game. Suggestion teams start losing points depending...

Hi Meesfeet, I do apologize and you are correct nothing you wrote was removed (but I must add I think a couple of things probably should have been and Darko just missed it) regardless I was incorrect, next time I’ll look....well probably not. Also I did say clubs and not mayors which does not effect the ratio of 20 to 1...it’s the meds, As related to me always responding to this topic, I have to take exception...I only respond when I hear something profound or simply ludicrous or just makes me laugh or hits me wrong. I do have an issue when someone states their opinion as fact and tries to debate with someone much more knowledgeable when the evidence is overwhelming that they are wrong... (just to clarify I am absolutely not referring to you at all and if you send me a PM I’ll let you know the specifics so you can read for yourself - don’t want to get tagged for naming and shaming, the worst crime of all). I’m guessing that is probably why your 200 mayor estimate is low...you only counted the ones I responded to. 🙂
I believe I was very clear on what was offensive and I think we’ve addressed that properly, it certainly had nothing to do with acting like a child or not facing the reality of the day...I actually find both somewhat amusing. Where you lose me is in the fact that you “understand and somehow respect the reasons behind this strategy” - I don’t...I find it to be disrespectful to your opponent and extremely selfish - to me it’s admitting you do not have the talent, intelligence or tenacity to compete straight up (which forces legitimate competitors to adopt a similar approach) - it’s sad. I accept nothing, defeating a turtle team is not a problem...but why suffer through the boredom and frustration? The war game use to be a simple team building exercise that provided some entertainment...now, not so much.
Take care.
Hi PinnacleValley,
You're right, something of what I wrote on that thread should have been removed by Darko. But If you remember what HopeUGotKevlar wrote, after my first post he became very, very offensive with me, so I tried answering him without overtaking the limit, and somehow I still think I didn't. At the end it hasn't been a nice show, for both.
I don't need a PM to trust you, as I said before I have a big opinion about you and I'm old enough to understand, there's no explanation needed🙂
BTW, I use to read this forum everyday since 2 years ago (not writing so much, doing it only if I got something not useless to say), before wars were added to the game, reading every new thread or post, that's why I think 200 is an exaggerated but reasonable number (not to count same mayors expressing their opinion in different posts). But even if it would be 500, that percentage wouldn't change a lot, from 0,015% to 0,037%! 1000? 0,07%!! 😉
(FYI, I used the equation signed accounts/100=complainers/x to find the percentage, named x)
Don't want to act as a teacher, but let me tell you this: in my life, I have been a game operator on another RTS game (not EA) for long times, an important game that still exists and have a forum system maybe even bigger than SCBI's one.
Providers and players got very different points of view, as for the provider is just a business. You told correct things: feeders, dead clubs, mayors not reading nor writing in this forum, mayors leaving the game for unhappiness. All true things. But at the end it's just a question of numbers. Happy customers rarely feel the need to express their happiness. In reverse, is when people are unhappy or got a problem that they need to express it, that's why these forums are always full of "negative" threads. Even with dead clubs or mayors leaving the game, the game looks still alive and kickin', still a business for EA, that won't change anything until it's a business that displeases a 0,015% to 1% of the customers.
What more to say about the bubble problem? We got very different and opposite opinions, and probably no one of us will ever convince the other!:D
But that's one of the fine things of RTS games (and life too): many heads, many opinions, and it's great and constructive to compare its as there's always something to learn, even when your opinion doesn't change. At least until not loosing correct manners, but that's not a problem concerning you, that's for sure.
Best regards!
