Guess just increase them all to mind blowing and then you don't have to worry about it.

Just don't look at the cost for doing it

Easy solution...........


stop being an idiot and watch where you click.


However I do like the sound of the planet shrinking button. That would be pretty nifty for all those times we go out planet raiding and find a fairly good one but its a large or huge size.

When it comes down to it, we just need to be careful with what we are doing.

If we can't have a confirm button for planet Abandonment, Why not remove it for every other little thing on this site. We dont need them then. If people forget they on ppt and spy/attack, Their fault, Quit their alliance, Again their fault....

I posted in the wrong section of the forum, but anyway, back to the planet confirmation thing, yes i think we will need it, cause just because i uses a laptop and have a crappier accuracy with the pointer, i think a confirmation page should be added, it not much code to add a confirmation page

Gah

I just abandoned my planet I spent lots of money on. By accident. It's in the morning too, a hell of a way to start off my day.

I voted against this.

If your foolish enough to click the button which says ABANDON PLANET then you dont deserve to have it.

A big part of my game is to steal and abandon planets quickly, this change is only being requested to make it more time consuming when abandoning, even if it is just an extra second or two.


There are far too many features on planets now, they are effectively a built in feature to each players account.

Its almost getting to the point where they might aswell be fixed features and not attacking assets.

1 planet per 24 hours

The owner can retake the planet inside 24 hours, or inside 12 hours if the person is on PPT.

Beacons are now available allowing users to track planets and at a cost of 1billion per beacon.........

MPDSD - A feature which is a fair one for all parties.

and i'll not continue lol i could go on for days on this subject only wish i had been more active in the past before the changes came into effect.

Admin should notify people of changes upcoming like they used too, rather than installing them and then seeing what people think simply because the majority will lump it and live with it.

Sometimes people make accidents *gasp*. And sometimes their mouses arent that great.

Then you know the answer to that dont you?

Get a quality mouse and keep its sensors clean and free from dirt. Also learning how to use the mouse accurately would be of great advantage to you.

Honestly how many times are we gonna have to listen to the same old dribble from those who are just to silly/stupid (take your pick) to either :

A - after moving your pointer over a button, confirm its the button you want before clicking
B - actually read the buttons first before clicking them or even rolling the pointer over them.
C - make sure you read everything on the page before doing anything, as it many have changed in layout or opertaion

If your too daft to do those simple steps then you really dont deserve planets, they arent difficult or time consuming. Neither is learning proper control of your mouse, in fact its quite simple & one of the purposes of the game Solitare (I suggest you try playing it a lil)

Oh I can only hope this suggestion gets consigned to the rubbish tip as its quite obviously where it belongs

If you dont like what I post, then tough. Either dont read it or dont bother replying to it.

not taking the game serisously no, just it is kinda annoying to have to listen to the same dribble over & over from ppl who obviously dont know how to use the computer equipment at their fingertips

If you find yourself clicking the wrong buttons then either keeping your mouse clean or replacing any factory standard model with one of a superior quality should reduce the chance of any pointer jumping. If its a case of not reading the buttons before clicking then your just stupid, never click unless your sure.

Honestly this is gonna be less of a game soon and more of endless list of 'are you sure' messages or tickboxes. Talk about anal & fun destroying, its like the health & safety people live here :P :lol:

Do you want to read this post?


Are you sure?


Tick box to continue...


Are you REALLY sure you want to read this post....

You see the point i'm getting at, the notion of having to double or even triple check something is ridiculous, thousands of players don't have a problem clicking a button, why should you be any different?
