The Growth Cap

Can this be moved up, please it's hell annoying, I'm only a prior, have over 3bil planets and only making a small 36mil planets per day, I should be making like 70mil planets instead.
Can the Cap be moved to like 10bil planets or something then take a % off the UP instead? Because it really is truly annoying to think that each time you get a Charisma level the % decrease gets even higher

you would think it would help your UP get better instead it does feck all

So please up the growth cap.
Also, no one ask how I done above 3bil planets and only a prior and I do pretty much nothing on ascended and my first ascension was crap

... Maybe I'm just that good

Joking xD

A bandaide on a broken bone?
I will agree it needs to be adressed but id rather see the real problems in ascended fixed. If they were fixed this would not be needed.

The only way the problems in ascension and main are going to be fixed is to do a total reset of the entire game (both servers). Everyone will start off equal (pretty much as it is now). Then Jason codes in the ability to ascend once every six months to a year and voila! You actually make ascension and main less broken than they were when ascension was first introduced. People won't ascend JUST for the bonuses because descension will be implemented immediately for ascension so ascending well will actually mean something (and involve a little bit of risk). And people will not be able to accumulate a 30% or greater bonus to all of their stats in main in less than a month (as what happened when ascension first opened).
Eliminate raiding (on both servers) and combine attack and defense into one "military stat".
Eliminate the current "massing technique" by making a realm able to attack another realm only once per turn. That way, to destroy someone on main takes a great deal of effort and coordination amongst several players and not just the ability to hit the Enter key 300 times in a minute. Perhaps after the game has grown a bit, this can be revisited and upped to maybe two or three times per turn, but I wouldn't go beyond that.
Eliminate miners in the game and the mothership/Command Star in both servers.
Eliminate planets from the game or, if you do keep the planet idea, make it linked to your ascension account somehow (you can have X amount of planets in main per Y amount of planets you have in ascension)
All of these suggestions combined will keep the growth of ascension and main in check, without the need for artificial caps like rank mods, plagues, CER restrictions, etc. It will actually require a degree of skill and finesse once again to be successful in the game.

is to do a total reset of the entire game (both servers). you can't kill the work of 2 years

Ummm yes you can. Jason did that with his updates of ascension recently. Those that played ascension from the beginning got goat-f***ed while those that just ascended for the bonuses got rewarded yet again. If I am going to get goat-f***ed, I want EVERYONE right there along with me.
