Icheliebebrad Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 PROBLEM: Right now you can give yourself a double donation at the end/beginning of the month and it puts you way ahead of everybody else. Throw that on top of the 1mil you receive, and raid some new people a couple times(steal their money/tech/land) and you've put yourself way ahead of the pack. SOLUTION: Get rid of donation deals in tournament edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newhotness Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 (edited) I agree, i think that if foreign aid isnt allowed donations shouldnt be either. It takes the skill out of the game because you only have 3 months to get as strong as possible and stay there. But if you get donations, you can buy your way to the top Edited March 28, 2009 by Newhotness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewish Lord Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 yeah this would make the game a bit more fair and not set to be won by only ppl who have the money to do the DD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fokker Aeroplanbau Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Doubtful that the mods will get rid of this Golden Goose. For if you do away with donations; how, exactly, do you expect Admin to get any money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentFury Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 yah i doubt they would get rid of donations... I understand how u guys r comin from but i dont think CN cares they want the $$$$$$$$$$$ lol and i would assume they probably make a good amount in TE hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fokker Aeroplanbau Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Standard Edition donations They likely think that at some certain point the saturation levels of the Standard Edition will reach the point where they sort of slack off to where the only real purchases are when war-rebuilding happens. Actually, that's likely already happened; which is where TE comes into play. It's a steady money-maker. No way they'd do away with that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dealmaster13 Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I support this - or at least decrease the benefits donations currently give, or make sure each round starts at the beginning of the month rather than the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popsumpot Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 I don't like this. Donations keep the game up, it isn't only fair that those who help donating money get rewarded. But I'm not sure how much value a donation has, I mean, there is $40 bucks down the drain from a couple of nukes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOLUTION: Get rid of donation deals in tournament edition. You want the Admin to work for free because the people who pay the bills get 100 infra for $20? I have only bought donations in Standard not in TE but in my opinion you should get more for TE donations. Think about the hours of enjoyment many get from this game without any costs incurred and the times you've dropped $50 on a piece of crap video game that you shelved after 30 min. I appreciate the people who make the Admins time worthwhile else there might not be a game to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingDingaLing Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Anyone who you notice jumping up real quick at the beginning you should just get 2 buddies and nail them if you want the donations to be worthless. If people have the money let them spend it. Then just make it a waste by nailing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medicjoe95 Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 The admins wont get rid of their only means of keeping the website up (and making profit), lets be realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxfiles Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 (edited) I say keep the donations for TE, if people are crazy enough to spend money on TE. let them. now with rounds only 60 days thats three donations total. 1 right at the beginning, one at next month and one in the final month.. its all good. Put your money into SE. Edited April 6, 2009 by maxfiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvenStar Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 No plans to remove donations. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
