Market Supporter Status :evil:

:evil:

Ok this is really beginning to annoy me, I used to be able to send stuff and everything and sometime last month I started to notice beside my ingame name {Market Supporter Status} now since I traded stuff (turns) on the market for naq/UU I assumed that this was because of that.. Then I realised I was on this permantly...

Now here's my Beef....

1. I did not ask to be put on this..
2. Nowhere did it explain to me that if I performed certain actions I would be put on this..
3. I fail to see the benefit of Market Supporter Status..
4. I can't seem to come off it without having to pay money, which in a sense is blackmail...
5. Going again for point number 3, whats the point of it and how is a benefit to me and others in my game.

Like its really bugging me cos I never asked for it and was never informed about it.. And yes I should read game updates but I rarely have time to read them... So if I brought this on myself great however if I can remove it EVEN BETTER!!!!

You have to actually DONATE money to the game to become a real supporter. Until then, you are merely a market supporter, because youre not really a supporter. The broker is only availible to real supporters.

look the problem is this ... supporter status avialable for ingame reasources made it soooooooooooo easy for certain people to multi it HAD to go simple as that if your not a multi its damn inconvienient but les inconvienient than a game ruled by multi's

and there is no blackmale your playing for free so you have lost nothing!

Yes but what I'm saying is I don't have a credit card cos well Im paying back loans for college n stuff.. I can't actually pay for FULL SS so there must be some way to get off this..

Most of the people who play this are in their teens they all don't have credit cards and I think it is unfair for people who do not cheat or multi to have to go on Market SS and lose their abilities to trade within thier Alliance's etc..

Like the Alliance I'm in if someone is attacked or assending I can't help out with Units or Naq, and most of the other people are able to do this.. I want to help my Alliance and I just feel cheap for not being able to help when I can, they all help me when I need it and I thank them greatly for it..

But again I feel that it is unfair for honest decent players to be punished for something they didn't do.. And putting in a system where it doesn't give you the option you either PAY FOR IT using real money or don't have full status when you clearly can't pay for it is Blackmail into being able to play the game..

I play this game to relax and I enjoy it so.. But it wrecks my head when I feel like a cheapskate for not being able to contribute to things in my alliance..

Not fair I tells ya

It is irritating for those who don't have money but it does deter multiing, and you do get full SS automatically and free of charge when you ascend. I believe it's also possible to 'buy' full SS with 1,000 Glory and Reputation points, for those who don't want to ascend. I don't think that option has actually been coded yet though.

Ya I saw that alright but you have to get into the top 1000 for starting getting G&R Points, which I am not..

Maybe they should extend that to the top 2000 or even 2500 and just have less points for the lower you are.. I'm not really sure how the G&R points system works tho...

Its like having 1st and 3rd class citzenship within the game..

J.S.

It is possible for someone else to buy you full SS. I know that there are players out there that will do so for ingame resources (I am not one of them). I'd suggest that you make a post along the lines of

"Looking to trade ingame resources for Full SS in (whichever game)" in the Black Market.

1.you did you paid ingame resoucres for SS which has now changed into market SS

2.it did at the top of your commander center a week or so before this update was made there was a message from forum to everyone to tell them about the SS changes if you never seen/read it then thats your own fault

3.it helps combat the cheaters and their multi accounts

4.its not blackmail this game is free and you can play perfectly well without full ss you dont have to pay cash to get full SS you can either ascend,use 1kG&R to buy it or sell some ingame uu,naq or turns for someone else to buy it

yeah it is a bit unfair but NOT AS UNFAIR AS A GAME RULED BY CHEATS

its a question of the needs of the maney outwieghing the needs of the few if say 10 thousand people are hard done by for the sake of 40 thousand being able to play without multi's walking all over them then you have to look after the 40 thousand its just logic

and if you REALY want full SS suck it up and aim for the G&R if your in a good alliance and a strong commander it is TOTALY possible to earn G&R without spending $

*sorry i read most of the thread*

another way to get ss is to do what i did, buy it with ingame reasorses (although now it might be better just to acend for it)
If you listen to what i say you'll learn lots
if you argue with what i say you'll lose
if you disagree with what i say your an idiot

Next time you feel that way, just think about the fact that the reason you are in this predicament is because you are TOO F'N CHEAP to support the game, but not too cheap to **Filtered** about not getting the same bonus as those who do.

It SHOULD make you feel warm and fuzzy inside.
