People were only worried about SGW dieing when attack was gone.
Now its back, and all these magical reasons people came up with disappear, and they go back to the daily grind.

No the attack bug just gave people time to sit back and think.
And clearly a general thought that popped up was, "Where is this game going? What's happened to it over the last few years? Is it going up or downhill?"
One person posted that question and look a day later 11 pages more or less on topic of people expressing where the game is going, there's reference to updates and changes over the years, not just the attack bug which was only the last few pages when people's tempers lost it.

Lol.
You have to much faith in humanity.
Attack was down for what? 4 days? people get that every week from PPT.
Stop fooling yourself.

That's a SLIGHTY LITTLE BIT easy vision of things don't you think?

topics and the general sentiment of "where is this game going" and how it's becoming "worse" with each subsequent update is nothing new as you would notice if you'd look around a bit.
guess why the topic asking for the origins server popped up in the first place goodie?
or you think that was a burst of randomness from a bunch of players?

Guys could we please stick to the subject of the thread and the discussion of what should change and how we can make it change. Arguments can be taken to MSN for all I care.
And goodie the attack bug didnt make me think. I've had this discussion going for the last 3 months among people like Lore, Semper. Im sure they can varify that

i got as far as page 5 and got bored so i dont know if anyone one suggested this i always wondered y when ur attack someone its only the weapons who get damaged either ur unit live or die i was thinking that they could add that u have to build hospitals on ur planet or train medics and maybe u have to train people to man ur mother ship maybe other buildings as well and maybe ur planets have their own defense soilders just some thoughts
and one thing that annoys me about the game now is that people in the game think to force people to play game thier way such as if u have a too high covert compared to ur def they think thats a sign to mass u to teach u a lesson

I don't think its just the bugs, and my doing have no say here, whether you end finding out about them, I don't care... SGW is a very popular game and I recognize that, I just wish it would stay that way, just a lot of stuff needs to be improved... I am looking at it as a gamers opinion, with a background in programming... I want to see a renew of interest of this game cause its just hitting a down side...
I have been trying to play the game without bring dragged into the war because I have a 40 hour a week, a fiance, and game of my own which I love working on as a hobby... And I love playing this game, to be honest SGW was what inspired me to make one from scratch... Even though Jason, at the time, was unable to give me any advice on creating my own...

I have deep respect for this game, and that's actually why I have not quit, even though I have disappointed with some of the less thought out features...

yes and this attitude must be stopped
the people that continue to practice this act should be subjected to an ingame castration

Granted I will concede that this thread was up first/attack bug wasn't 4 days (3/2 days I believe, feel free to correct me, as opposed to just calling me out on it, thats why there was a question mark there)
But how many others posted only because of that? Time will tell.
For the record: game play was screwed up a while ago; now its probably even worse.

I have to agree with Goodie on this on this one, the system has been going downwards and I wish it was improving...
