Good job making fun of someone for spending money on a game they enjoy. KEM farming was not available at the beginning and for a long time so if you wanted something you bought it with real cash purchased donuts.
The people who actually spend money on this game are the ones to thank for actually keeping it alive this long.
Do you happen to recall what methods there were to earn donuts without money? I know that Maggie game didn't come along for ages and donuts were never a prize in Daily tasks. It took a long time to level-up (for one donut payout) because there were so few tasked characters, and special events weren't multi-stages with numerous freemium characters to "win".
It was almost impossible to buy any premium items to raise the whatchamacallit multiplier.
And they SURE didn't have the maximum game level with 3 donuts every time we level up!
Or that Super Collider for free! THAT item is what proves, in MY opinion, that EA decided to give out more donuts to freemium players. As a teaser. Once a player gets a few premium characters, it's a LOT easier to tempt them to buy more.
The IRS building, too, convinces me they want to keep players involved.
Now that there are hundreds of characters, it's so much easier to make money.
They used to be very, very stingy giving out donuts, right?
If they did NOT want long-timers to farm, ALL they would need to do is stop giving 3 donuts per level up. Or increase requirements to five million. Or stop giving Level Up donuts at a certain point.
The idea that EA is upset that some of us old timers are farming and getting scads of donuts for free is absurd. They could put an end to that with ONE LINE of code. ?
