Title: Zilong and all the pledged assistance
Post by: Gunfighter Frank on February 24, 2007, 06:59:16 AM
OK everone we all want to Zilong get her power back to before the NAW/ LOI, TH war thing.  With all the pledges of support if all of them go through this will end up power boosting Zilong.  I believe that Sir Emi should reset her account to its pervious status, and let Sir Emi deside a fair ammout of growth.  YOu opinions on this are wanted.  I will give this post 5 days for responce

I must say I disagree to this. Like I posted in the other thread, were I to leave and get attacked, I wouldn't go begging Emi to reset my account. If you want to help zilong, give her donations through cash/market. This game will have gone to the buzzards if emi starts resetting every person who gets attacked while they are away. I will probably quit, because this game will truly have turned into boring, endless, repetitive missions. Attacks would be useless if people got reset every time they were attacked.

its a game, she got attacked, sure i may like the idea, but no this shouldnt happen, beacuse then you would have to pay everyone who goes afk and gets attacked back there ships??

zilong may have alot of friends, if anything she should get money though the market for the ships lost from the people who would like to support her.. not get her ships back by emi

blak, lamma, zilong did not leave, she ha da medical complication that no one could have seen coming All games usually make a compensation for people when they have some sort of medical problem that causes them to disappear all of a suddent without a chance to prepare for an attack. Leaving willingly is one thing, beign forced to leae medically suddenly I believe is qualifiedfor at least a reset to her original power.

The only things that I could consider qualifying a reset are
1. Major bug/error (as in all ships instantly dieing for no reason)
2. Cheating/Hacking (this would be a bad reset, as in putting you back where you were when you started exploiting)

I cannot think of a single game that I have played (and I have played many) that have given people stuff when real life caused problems. Give her money through the market, but don't demand Sir Emi to reset zilongs account. It's just not right. Isn't it unfair to those who attacked zilong, seeing all their hard work go down the drain?

Or, we could reset zilong, give the people who attacked her compensation + growth for the money they lost on the marines they bought to board her, and restock them on the turns they lost + growth, then take into account any of them who got attacked and lost stuff because of their loss of turns/marines/money while attacking zilong, etc. as you can see it could degenerate into this...if it didn't and zilong was just reset then it would be just unfair to pretty all 31000 players except for zilong...

ranger the reason frank mentioned emi reseting zilong to formal power. is cuz if everyone made good there pledge to help her out with x amount of creds. it would jump her for beyond her formal power.

so then if everyone is so eger to help her out have the few people that would want to give her money get toughter figure out how much she lost devide it by X number of people and each person give her that much..

I have no problem whatsoever with boosting zilong...put her in the top ten for all I care. But do it with your own creds, don't ask emi to go resetting her account. The money has to come from the players willing to give it to her.
