It wouldn't take much for me to feel appreciated by Gree. It's the simple things in life that would make me happy:

1. Make entire numbers visible in player profiles for money and attack/defense stats.
2. Use commas in numbers!

6824

If someone has $10 billion in the bank, all I see is 10000000... It should really be 10000000000, and with commas 10,000,000,000. The same problem exists with A/D stats. I only see the first 8 digits. It's my understanding though, that this is only a problem for some devices. I have an iPhone 5.

It's only going to get worse. Stats increase by around 1000x per year. 2 years ago, the game was relatively new and 1 thousand attack/defense was pretty good. Last October, 1 million was pretty good. Now 1 billion is pretty good. Next year 1 trillion. Imagine what that'll look like. All you'll see when you check out someone's defense stats is 20000000..., when it should say 2,000,000,000,000. You may think stats could never get that high, but most people never thought they'd see 1 million stats.

I'm not asking you to take out ISIS, cure cancer, or even put out an event on time. I just want to see numbers with commas.

This game lacks some serious consistency in the UI. Gree, you guys need help. You can't even get the most basic things right with displaying numbers. Especially the differences between Android and iOS....

2 thumbs up for these suggestions.

Another way to do this is truncate the number and use either K, M, B after as they have started doing when showing prize stats. It is not like the hundreds, thousands and millions columns mean anything anymore! Something like 1.456B when you are in the billions would be nice to see.

Definately!

I keep seeing mention of "Player Appreciation Month," but has there actually been anything from Gree to show appreciation? I know they have the Boss Design Contest, but that's just to save them some work. So is there anything I'm forgetting? Any free gold, special sales, awesome building, or attainable prize? Have they fixed any glitches or issues that we've been complaining about for years? In what way is this month different from all others?

This is one of many "It goes without saying suggestions. It's simple, helpful and easy to do. Isn't your software tested and audited? This is not a difficult issue to fix. Who are the people that have no sense at all? Stop doing new buggy events and spend a little time making MW legible by using a little common sense.

The equivalent of a comma in the threads would be if you didn'ttypewithanyspaces. That's how fun it is to read numbers without commas.

It is time for Gree to run a script to take away 3 zeros from everything. Just divide by 1000 with a min value of 1. Everything except defense buildings, of course, which will still be paper weighs

That would work because everyone's stats would be divided by 1000 too. So a 6m unit added to 2b stats is the same as a 6k unit added to 2m stats.
