Hi, my name is kkipperr. I like a peaceful game. I want to build my city and that is really all I want to do. I do not want to be attacked by other people. Their sole motivation seems to be that they want to feel powerful because they have been placed at the top of the neighbourhood by randomness and they think that gives them the right to ruin another person's game. I enjoy working with others. This game rewards working with others. It is one of the beauties of the game.
People have asked to be able to opt out of PvP on the forum before by Sandz of Time and Lady Lynne. I imagine there have been more that I haven't found and I know there are a lot of other people playing now who don't want to be involved as I have been speaking to them. I believe that the game should cater for it.
In one of my Guilds two people left the game because they were being constantly attacked. One was being looted by three people every day. I do not believe that this game should be a place where people can bully others and that is what that was. I find that this could happen extremely abhorrent.
I have read the moderators responses before, and it seems to be that it is considered to be part of the game. i consider this a false argument. When this game first started the previous big game by Inno was Tribal wars, which was a fighting game and so I understand the reasons this was included, but the game has changed through the years. Most people who play now want to Sim City. It is what attracted them and it is what attracted me. You cannot just say it's part of the game. The game changes, and it needs to change again to keep up with the demographic that is now playing. Two years ago there wasn't an Oceanic Future or a Level 4 in the Guild expedition, but there is now. I think the tavern may be less than a year old. See. The game changes. The players who are attracted to this game have changed and such a fantastic game deserves to change with them.
If people do want to fight then an opt out will still allow them to. remember, if I opt out of fighting I am not dictating to the fighters how to play the game as they can fight amongst themselves (although isn't GvG for that), but when they attack me, they are dictating to me how to play the game. There is only one reason that you can possibly be against an opt out button and that is that you want to bully other players who do not want to be involved.
I have sent nasty notes for a while to people who attacked me. This was deliberate. Finally, yesterday one blocked me. This proves my point. Why can I not block them attacking me when it hurts my game. However, they can block my mails when I only sent it because they attacked me, and they attacked me without any provocation, solely to steal my stuff.
I think that there should at least be a poll. And I really mean at least.
Before I sent this message I first contacted tech support as I didn't know that I should write it here. I got people to send them messages saying "I support kkipperr". I think they got a lot. I feel a bit mean for that now, as they have been very nice, but I believe that the fact that people sent those messages proves that this change is needed.
I think the beauty of this game is that it rewards working together and that should be what is emphasized. Recently a guy put up a post in my Guild asking for 5 trades that hew was desperate for. He offered 3 FP for every trade that was accepted. I didn't need the trades, but they didn't hurt me either, so I took all 5 trades and contacted him. I said that he should only pay 2 FP per trade. the reason was I had a GB that was very close to levelling up ( about 30 points left) and if he put 10 FP in it I would quickly finish it, then he would get 10 FP back (plus some medals and blueprints). That is why this game is great. We both gained I got 10 FP on my GB, and didn't lose anything, he got his trades, it cost him nothing extra and he got some medals and blueprints once I levelled it up. I know it was unusual that i would have that 10 point slot still available, but as I said it demonstrates why this game is great. Please understand that looting people diminishes this games strengths.
This is very, very important to a lot of people playing the game.
I know that my demands can be ignored by the moderators, however knowing I may be ignored has never stopped me before and so, nevertheless, I demand that a poll at least be run. Better still, accept that the game has changed and simply change it to meet the wishes of a great deal of the players.
Thankyou for listening to me
PS At least a poll
