FROM: BOYCOTT 2 B FREE (Game ID: 259646814)
DATE: Saturday, 03 November 2012
SUBJECT: PERSONAL BOYCOTT against ALL Gree Games on all platforms.

Your company has ignored me, your customer, for far too long.
You take my custom for granted, ignore my requests, and expect to have it your way.
In a capitalist society, it doesn't work that way.
Things will change; otherwise my BOYCOTT will result in me BANISHING you from my life.
Effective immediately, I will BOYCOTT all of your games, including Modern War for one week.
If I don't see the changes I seek, I'll extend my ban each successive week.
If by the end of four weeks, you have not reacted to my entreaties, I'll PERMANENTLY BANISH you and your games.
I'll delete all of your games, and post the reasons for my doing so in the appropriate feedback forums available from the stores where you peddle your products.
I will encourage my friends and allies to BOYCOTT and BANISH your games, too.


- I request visible leader boards during all events for the entire duration of said events.
- I request all boosts to be visible to me.
- I request you immediately remove all “non-casualty glitch” accounts, because by giving them invincibility for FREE, you devalued my purchased products.
- Because YOU chose to devalue YOUR game, I am requesting an immediate 66% reduction in the retail price of all in game products on offer. :rolleyes:
- Until you reduce your prices by 66% (across the board), I will not make any purchases.
- I don’t NEED the items you sell, you do NEED my money.
- Or, you can continue GIFTING your products to the “non-casualty” glitchers. :rolleyes:
- I am instituting a one week BOYCOTT effective immediately on all my game play across ALL of your games. :cool:
- I will actively encourage others to decide if your game warrants their time, efforts, and funding.
- I will evaluate, on a weekly basis, what further actions I will employ; should you foolishly ignore my demands.

What do I mean by a BOYCOTT?
- I will not play any of your games during my boycott.
- I will NOT use any gold that I might have in my inventory.
- I will NOT make any in game purchases during the BOYCOTT period.
- I am taking these actions as a single entity, but will encourage and support others in their individual BOYCOTT of your game.

So, they shut down a broken, useless game, so what?

Besides, read the tea leaves, why do you think they suddenly develop other games?

Why do you think a "slot machine" game is soon to be deployed?

This game is a "dead game playing".

I agree with that assessment. Thus goes all things.
You can only survive so long if your games are dying so quickly.
Its costs alot to program a new game. You need existing ones to pay for them.
CC threads show the samw contempt and several key players have quit this week as well.
These are troubling signs for a company as a whole.

I am def not a big gold spender and will never be hearing what I have for the last few months about the non working boosts. Why would I spend real money on something that doesn't work? DuHHH
I've seen the big spenders pulling their hair out because of this and it's really not cool at all because in all reality you would be upset as well gree. What if the shoe was on the other foot ehh?If I get booted then oh well,easy come easy go, but you guys that are trying to fight for us "wanna be"spenders at some point as well.

i work in an industry that involves computers and cash purchases. it is regulated and audited. make a mistake, and you are ripped a new one. GREE is getting away with robbery. if our stuff didn't work as advertised, we would be shutdown. in a heartbeat!

if i was spending CASH money, and i ain't, i would be truly perturbed.

good luck to you and all the goldies. hope you do get your satisfaction.

Thanks PJ and Ferr for starting this. I will also not purchase or spend any gold. I just recieved my monthly gold bonus, so it will be tempting, but it will sit there, unused. I think if enough gold buyers will actually do this Gree will notice it rather quickly. It may take longer then a week because heavy gold buyers normally have their bonus gold at the beginning of the month. The things we have been asking for are by no means unreasonable. Boost units would be expected to work by the average person. Posting the leaderboard at the end of the event only makes sense. Making all boosts visibly verifiable shouldn't be that difficult. And Gree should be able to check out a suspected hacker rather quickly.

Modern War is currently #25 on top grossing at the app store.

I've been playing this game for nearly a year and have read complains very similar to this one. (I myself stopped buying gold months ago after realizing the game was built entirely around that) I know the forum is a place to express ideas, issues as well as communicate with other players. I also know that developers sometimes read the posts and respond. But, if this is a true boycott against the game and it's current state of operation, have you considered contacting their corporate headquarters (if you haven't done so already)? Any decisions concerning profit are made at that level and trickle down. Not to say that CC Mark and other developers don't try to do things to make the game fair, but I'm sure that isn't their only goal.

I worked in corporate America for many years, and no matter what an employee's individual function was, everyone had the same overall goal: profitability.

If this is a serious boycott, it may need to be escalated way beyond this forum.

Not wanting to put a spanner in the works, but if you are really serious about getting things to change it would require more of an indefinite strike than a boycott until stuff is fixed.

Gree/funzio can absorb a small % loss in like-for-like monthly revenue, which I suspect is what would occur considering the number and contribution of the players boycotting, the time, gree potentially putting out a gold sale to make up for the loss later on in the month to encourage those who have boycotted to spend more later. Remember that there are new games out, and that gree will expecting revenue growth anyway

If you are serious, this needs to be either indefinite or at least a month long so that week by week fluctuations do not cancel themselves out.

PIRATE JUSTICE I've always liked to read your threads! They are whacky, colorful (figuratively and literally) some times informative and bring something very unique to this forum! Never understood the haters ridiculing and insulting you, they must be very dry and boring individuals... haha

This cause/thread is big respect to you, nothing less.
Even though I never gave GREE a penny, I would never even consider it with the inequality between the iOS and Android platforms.
If it's not too much, I'd like to add a couple points that apply to us Androiders:
1. Make events pop up at exactly the same time for everyone, not 1-2 days later for Android, not 1-2 days later for certain (randomly?) singled-out unlucky individuals!
2. We need to see the battlepoints too, it's very good we get the rank-rewards (unit + VP), but they arrive silently and we have no way of knowing when.
3. We want scratchers too.
4. Hooray for boss events arriving - good work! :D

Thank you for your kind words. I like to have fun. Sadly, I can no longer ignore the obvious flaws and problems. Your concerns are valid. Please start a thread and let everyone know the problems with the android platform. I have a LLP on an android device, and you are correct. Please post a thread and lay out your issues with android ame play. Thank you so much.

Hi, I'm new to the forum but not new to mw.
I have the same problem.
Mine happened in the last crate event. I was in the top 250 but i didn't get my prize.
I know it may seem to be just a simple issue, but i expect GREE to be bound by their word.

I purchased gold to open those crates and will feel aggrieved if i do not get my prize.

I sent them two emails regarding this issue for over two weeks there has been no reply.
Which is appalling.

I can only imagine how you would feel.

Again i second that!!!!:mad:

GREE Player Experience Survey
---------------------------------------------
GREE is committed to providing the best player experience in the industry and your feedback will help us do that.

Please take a few minutes to let us know how we are doing.
----------------------------------------------
Feedback? You got it! I have been reporting hackers, stalkers,
perverts, players with the no casualty glitch etc. for a year
now. YOU have not resolved these issues. Gree is cheating
every honest customer in the game by allowing this to continue.
Recently reported a no casualty glitch player for the nth time...
received another "it has been looked into" response. Took
screen shots of the aforementioned no casualty glitch player
... attacked...waited for the counter attack...took more screen
shots...stats exactly the same...impossible without the glitch.
I will no longer play any of your games.
I will also contact my Apple Store customer representative
as well as my American Express platinum desk for a refund
on all Gree purchases.

TO: WHOM IT MAY CONCERN; Gree, Inc.
FROM: BOYCOTT 2 B FREE (Game ID: 259646814)
DATE: Saturday, 03 November 2012
SUBJECT: PERSONAL BOYCOTT against ALL Gree Games on all platforms.

Your company has ignored me, your customer, for far too long.
You take my custom for granted, ignore my requests, and expect to have it your way.
In a capitalist society, it doesn't work that way.
Things will change; otherwise my BOYCOTT will result in me BANISHING you from my life.
Effective immediately, I will BOYCOTT all of your games, including Modern War for one week.
If I don't see the changes I seek, I'll extend my ban each successive week.
If by the end of four weeks, you have not reacted to my entreaties, I'll PERMANENTLY BANISH you and your games.
I'll delete all of your games, and post the reasons for my doing so in the appropriate feedback forums available from the stores where you peddle your products.
I will encourage my friends and allies to BOYCOTT and BANISH your games, too.


- I request visible leader boards during all events for the entire duration of said events.
- I request all boosts to be visible to me.
- I request you immediately remove all “non-casualty glitch” accounts, because by giving them invincibility for FREE, you devalued my purchased products.
- Because YOU chose to devalue YOUR game, I am requesting an immediate 66% reduction in the retail price of all in game products on offer. :rolleyes:
- Until you reduce your prices by 66% (across the board), I will not make any purchases.
- I don’t NEED the items you sell, you do NEED my money.
- Or, you can continue GIFTING your products to the “non-casualty” glitchers. :rolleyes:
- I am instituting a one week BOYCOTT effective immediately on all my game play across ALL of your games. :cool:
- I will actively encourage others to decide if your game warrants their time, efforts, and funding.
- I will evaluate, on a weekly basis, what further actions I will employ; should you foolishly ignore my demands.

What do I mean by a BOYCOTT?
- I will not play any of your games during my boycott.
- I will NOT use any gold that I might have in my inventory.
- I will NOT make any in game purchases during the BOYCOTT period.
- I am taking these actions as a single entity, but will encourage and support others in their individual BOYCOTT of your game.
Regards, BOYCOTT 2 B FREE :mad:18801881

AO, the unified message is boycott, if Greedy wants to sit down to discuss the matters with us, then we can select PJ and Ferr to represent us to hammer out a plan and schedule with Greedy. :eek:

You helped, my friend.

Dozens of us got us to this stage in the proceedings.


I'm now going to wait.

I've dropped most of my allies, as was suggested to us by our other co-conspirator.


Eventually, I'll stop with 50 allies.


I'm also going to clam up.

Effectively, I'll ban myself, but will continue to lurk.


It's time to do to our enemy, what our enemy has done to us for the past year, IGNORE them.


It's time to RUN SILENT & RUN DEEP!!!

People wear false faces and put on fake fronts.

It might be best to trust only those you really know.

That said, you need not worry about trusting someone that isn't taking your money.

If someone is taking your money, that person will say or do most anything to keep taking your money.

To some people, taking $10 is as important as taking $100.

No one is less than another person.

We are ALL customers, and we're ALL being ignored, cheated, and take for granted.

As long as you allow them to abuse you, throw you useless trinkets, you'll never be respected or appreciated.


You'll only encourage them to cheat you more!

Brilliant, I admire people bright enough to not allow themselves to be distracted by bright, shiny, jingly baubles or trinkets.


I agree, we all should remain focused on our goal.


Now is not the time to sharpen your knives or grind your axes.


There'll be plenty of time for that, no matter what happens with our BOYCOTT.
