I agree with all that Ryan has said.
While we, the players, understand that GREE needs to make money, players that have worked hard and spent moneyto achieve strong players see a lot of that come to nought as you keep removing the foundations that we've come to expect. Please make HRB a bit lower in health so that those guilds that had completed for the first time before the change, have a chance to complete again. HRB is a big community event with everyone helping each other. This community is the main reason people continue to play.
Now.. As per the 5/6 day war announced. I, for one, stay up late into the night during war. I buy gems and typically try to save them for war. But, like most players I've met in this game, I've a time consuming real life job, and a family. As it is, the war starting Friday during business hours and ending Monday during business hours is very challenging. Extending during the work week is essentially a non starter for many. If you go ahead with this plan, you should expect to see significant "retirement" from this game, and likely primarily from those that spend a lot.
It's the people that work for a living that pay for this game and your changes are disenfranchising too many.
It's obvious to us, as we see fewer guilds fighting and more and more mergers, that it's due to significant player loss.
Those of us who are loyal KA players beg you to please reconsider.
Thank you,
Gal
