Posted on Jul 14, 2012 Yup - that decision pretty much sunk me and I had to start again. So I did because I enjoy the game - I'm not moaning for the developer to change the rules or ban other players for how they play. The more players the better the game even if you think they are all idiots.Good luck with the lawsuit - last one banned wins! |

Posted on Jul 14, 2012 Hey Victoria - When I get out of jail next time (because I'm probably going back soon) let's hook up. Call me maybe?

Posted on Jul 16, 2012 If you feed off whining, Todd, I feel like there must be easier ways to accomplish it. Let me introduce you to some of my family members, they could keep you entertained for ages!

Posted on Jul 16, 2012 Oh yes I am, I really like a lot of aspects of this game. But I think it's deeply flawed, should be closed for a few months while everything is fixed, etc. The fact that the only rules are unwritten and a lot is possible (buying and crashing other companies, buying out the entire B2B, exploiting the stock market, etc.) just makes it easy to have fun.

Posted on Jul 17, 2012 I'd rather the developer work on features rather than bullet-proofing or policing the game for those having 'fun'. I suspect that's why he has abandoned this game.

Posted on Jul 17, 2012 @Howard - "What about personal accountability? Derp could never have looted the company if it was not left open to him."I inherited a company with a few billion stocks floating around. I don't have anywhere NEAR enough money to buy out more than 10% or so, and growing it just makes the stock rise up in price. By the time I got the ball rolling and about 20% control, Mr. Merde (pun intended) hit. Now instead of something that I can grow and shape, the company has a debt that's a titanic chunk of my net worth, and the company is beyond unfixable because of it. Did Marde have fun? I don't know, and I don't rightly care. But did he ruin something that I spent weeks building up, from the last person who went through and sold everything? That he did. Am I upset? Well, only somewhat, but he is like a bully who runs down the beach kicking down other kids' sand castles - the sand castle isn't the issue, the fact that he needs a good smackdown to remind him that he's not alone in this world is. |

Posted on Jul 18, 2012 Marshall – That sucks.Sounds like you were a pretty good CEO/Chair for that company. There is no doubt Derp is a scoundrel and judging by his posts he might be missing a chromosome or two – but the fact is he did not break any rules in this game. He is just another player using the lucrative if not overly original exploitation tactic of buying up control in exposed companies and looting them to line his own pockets. This forum is full of players who have been burned the same way & the EoS stock market is a graveyard of abandoned companies stricken with a similar fate. But why does this keep happening? Control is key. Derp and vultures like him will cease to exist if a company is protected. They cannot do anything without a majority. If players managed their ownership perhaps we wouldn’t need a developer to babysit us or a forum to rant about what rules we need to make the game ‘fun’ again. I have a proposition for you. If you want to turn around a company but don’t have enough cash for a 50% stake – Let me know. Sounds like you are a pretty good player and maybe we could partner up on a takeover/rebuild. Regardless, I hope you keep playing. |

Posted on Jul 18, 2012 Marshall, thanks for sharing. As the accused in a few 'corporate raider' lawsuits - I dont find many of the arguments above very compelling, or factual; but I did enjoy your comments - to me that is the only coherent argument you can make. Happy to help you get back on your feet if need be.
