View Full Version : Gree, why not do something positive that shows you don't hate your players?

You know what would be a nice gesture to your players after how badly you screwed up the last war? How about issuing the bonus gold before war.

Your long term gold players are quitting left and right. Why not throw a bone to the few that are remaining?

Or, you could just be ****s and issue it a minute after the war ends. Sadly, this is probably what you'll do.

My expectations are even lower that they'd do 40%!

But, we can dream, right?

If you're looking for GREE to actually give away some free gold, you could try to make a thread that's not insulting to them. Not making this thread at all would have been a better approach.

Nope, my old account got deleted, never figured out why, so I just created another one.
But seriously, do you think this thread makes them more likely to give away gold?

Nope. Nothing I say or do matters to Gree. I am not buying more gold, and do not have a bonus coming. I quit gold after their screw up last war and the rediculous stat inflation that has priced me out of this game.

ok, so I guess there's no real point to this thread except trashing Gree?

Free gold would be nice. I think a 50% off sale on gold would be even better. They need to do something to makeup for the recent screw ups.

It would give people a chance to catchup. Maybe it would stop a few players from retiring.

They have done something nice for the players this war. They have changed the top ten prize to honor a players passing.
The top ten prize is now called LG's buggy.. Congrats to those who wrote gree and to the gree staff for making it happen

You mean actually giving burnt out players a break for the first time in near a year from back to back events was a redeeming action? Not a "we're losing people who spend money so we'll ease off one event" action?!

Just saying.

I was seriously going to type this...good thing I finished reading the rest of the posts. Honestly, this small gesture means more than just another 40% sale. Wouldn't expect most of you people to appreciate it though.

This, and I liked the near-24-hour break to relax before the war starts. Gree usually builds in an extra day of buffer because there is usually a scheduling issue or something gets pushed back. Then the last event usually ends right before the war begins. There were no problems that I'm aware of this round (maybe just an hour or two), so kudos to Gree for that.

Now as far as getting something for nothing except to satisfy some sense of entitlement as the OP suggests, well, sorry cupcake.

I like cupcakes.

However, if you read what I wrote at all, you'd have seen that I am not due a bonus because I did not buy any gold last month. The people who are due a bonus are hardly getting something for "nothing" because they've spent thousands of dollars to get those bonuses. They are paid "by the 7th" and are usually paid around the 3rd or 4th of the month.

It sure would be nice of Gree to reward its paying customers by issuing those bonuses before the war ends.

But, I would like a cupcake, for free of course. I'm out of gold to pay for it.

Idiosyncrasy
10-03-2013, 11:04 PM
I like cupcakes too. I had one two days ago, but I have no more.

Why should Gree deviate from the plan? It is the responsibility of the receivers of the bonus, in my mind, to ration what they have and project what they need to save for an upcoming war. If they don't get it before the weekend is up, it will be there for the next war.

Perhaps I did mis-read you a bit since I was imagining the free 200 gold we get from time to time. That's what happens when I forgo my body's signs that it is time for sleep.

I do not have very many problems with Gree currently. All I do want is the 30% modifier for building upgrade decrease. CC was not working and sent in tickets. Took about 3 or 4 weeks to finally work. But I know I will not get it (a few months ago it happened)

Perhaps you can post a list of free stuff Gree has given to people as a direct result of people whining for free stuff on threads just to help all these "new" people out.

Yes, I'm probably delusional in hoping there's a chance they won't screw the players.

1. Gree is not a charitable organization

3. They want us to participate in every event
4. They don't give a rats-ass about us complaining

Hey, quick question. How did HTC Blue have 775k points after only 6 seconds of battle? Did you see that on your end too? I know y'all are good, but not even FC's that good.
