Sorry, your country is involved in more than 1 wars against countries without a president. (Little Upsilon)

What the hell is this any why won't Sim Country allow me to be involved in more than two wars at one time?

I cannot declare on the inactive I was planning to attack, nor a C3.

Sorry, your country is involved in more than 1 wars against countries without a president.


This is new ... i remember having as much as 10 wars agains't C3 less than 1 week ago ...


Why this stealth change ???????????

cuz of nutes plan to bring down the game didnt u guys go to the summit? gm is counter acting to part 1 of the master plan.

This is seriously hurting my fun level in this game, Its already slow paced enough now i can only fight 1-2 C3 per day ....

And if it becomes not fun ... Well i will quit.

Shaun what summit are you talking about ? I would like to go check that out.

Thanks Gino~

havent taken c3s in awhile. decided to yesterday. killed 2. let me only dec on 1 more..and after wars were done..still message saying im at war and cant dec on more... i was made to wait a month.

boo-urns

Rather than blocking more than 1 war declaration w3c should have allowed other presidents to declare on CCCs that are in a war if and only if the other president is in more than 1 war. That would have opened up lots of fun instead of restricting the game.

Restricting the game?

W3C's "solution" to all problems and non-problems.

P.S. I had to edit this post upon discovering that there has been a recent change, assuming it is not a bug. We seem to be able to deactivate more than 10% of off forces at one time. Thank you for this increase in flexibility. It's a refreshing change.

2nd Edit. Nope. Only works in secured countries. Too bad.

really fb? how about an option to reactivate up to the number of eligible soldiers you have that would be cool...

Thanks to Nute the idiot and some other loosers who decided to start 700 wars on C3 countries hoping to block that world for new players.
you can see the list of wars on GR.

now, we are unable to start wars on C3s.

2 a too few.
they will not be able to block any world even if the limit was 5 or 10.

so Tom or Jozi:
please increase the limit.

As taking C3s remains a vital part or warfare, despite recent changes, I also request that the limit be raised. Why not make the limit 15? The same as the decs that can be declared against us. 10 would be okay too, I suppose...

Or you could just ban anyone who tries something like that. I never think players should be banned except for overt cheating, but that's just a bonehead thing to do.

Where are the simcommandments? Isn't one of them never piss off the GMs for they wield the almighty IP ban?

See, when you know enough...

/me stares at Romeo

Go back from your came.

Thanks to Romeo, Midget Muldoon left the game because she didn't tolerate being harassed on the forum by a short-sighted savage - my words, not hers -, who loved to jump on her on every little occasion.

I have a problem with short-sighted people, you see, so I have a problem with you.

In other words, Romeo, consider yourself my in-game target for now and for the future.
As it is elections years in my country, I have been rather busy lately, but I assure you I will find time for you.

On the forum, however, I will treat you with the same dignity that I treats other and with the manners you refused to use on Muldoon. Follow suit.

There comes a point, Wild, when the gods need to be spanked, particularly when they behave like arrogant, petulant little children.

Many players are very annoyed with the asinine directions W3C is taking this game with so much unrealized potential.

Of course, the aplogists say "if you, don't like it, quit."

Perhaps some of us are not quitters. Perhaps some us will continue to push and harp for intelligent, constructive change and developement until we are forced out.

Some of us will continue to point out arrogant stupidity for what it is.

The treatment of Laguna and Q has earned my total disgust with W3C. They deserve nothing but contempt, exactly what they have shown us. I will happily pay $4 a month to harrass them until they IP Ban me.

We were always able to deactivate 100% of a weapon type. You have to have a high index to do it. It still reactivates at 10%. I remember getting stuck when I first started playing the game.

Really, Sheep?

That's curious. I have been deactivating these fleets for a few days and this was the first time I could do more than 10% at one time.

So was the bug before or now?

Ha ha .
No chance Laguna. I know you hate the truth.
I have been here since 2002 and plan to stay.

It is curious, that you are so angry when these guys are exposed with their little scheme.

you said nothing for days and now this.

you want me to stop saying the truth. Shame on you.

Maybe you participated in this fine action to block GR. The plan was probably to block everything.

I also think 10 will be fine but with these people having so many countries, and maybe Laguna too, x 10 = ???

FarmerBob
you are not a leader. You are kissing ass of anyone who is aggressive. You are nothing at all if there is nowhere to hide.

Mmm. Now I dislike Romeo as well. Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou so fucktarded?


@Bob, I agree with you about the GM's attitude and recent actions; however the idea to block all the open C3s is obviously a little half baked and a BAD idea.

To the credit of the GMs, costs have been going down on a lot of products and is finally catching up with the reduction in profits. I'm sure I'm not the only one ordering oa2a and bombs in 50k and 60k clumps these days. Where they need to really follow through is reducing GC base price again to make everything truly proportional.

I'm waiting these changes out. I don't like them or agree with them since nothing was all that broken to begin with; however, hindsight will show the degree they enhance or detract from my gameplay experience.

I am on LU, Auriga Bella, Great Liberty.

Come play with me, sychophantic apologist for gross incompetence, blatant lying, and childish bully tactics.

The day I roll over for a bunch of Dutch computer programmers, I hope someone does me the kindness of putting a 240 grain hollowpoint through my brain.

Tell me, Romeo, are you the "great player" with whom our lords and masters have threatened to punish us?

You play an excellent game, Wild. Your grasp of the nuances of the economic model coupled with a realistic attitude towards conflict make you, in my mind, one of the elite players. However, Nute and other players are attemtimg to send a message:

"Stop. You are screwing this up!"

Despite Willards claims that player complaint is the impetus for the war aginst numbers, I really have no issue with the scaling down, not in principle or practice.

My complaint arises from the continual flow of control to W3C's automated and arbitrary hands.

The game is becoming little more than we build, economize, and stockpile; whilst, they create new ways to destroy, waste, and rob.

New Disasters? Really? Some new player is going to say "Cool. Earthquakes, Hurricanes, Blizards, Plagues, and Tornadoes. That's a great idea."
Perhaps one will until their 10th or 20th or 100th disaster, and they realize that this adds nothing to the game. Just a day of logging in and saying "Well, no point in doing anything to day or tommorrow."

Is it too much to ask for a little freedom?

Must my corps really transfer out cash without my permission?
Is W3C, the IRS now? Are we "hiding" money from Uncle Jozzi?
Maybe we want to IPO? But that's right. No actions without W3C permission. W3C decides what is successful, not us lowly players who pay the bills.

May I please contract within my common market with prices I decide are acceptably profitable to the corporations throughout my supply chain?
Who am I stealing from? Myself?
Or is it too embarrassing that players set up functioning internal economies in a few weeks that are beyond the reach of the W3C hand of control?

Is it too much to ask for the simple admission of "Yes. We screwed up and created a quality system that served no purpose and now we don't want to subsidize it anymore. But since the entire economy is built around the high quality, we don't know how to fix it. Any Ideas?"

When a player like Laguna, who has forgotten more about this Sim, than most will ever know, has his posts deleted....
When a good kid like Q tries for weeks to point out a problem that could have been resolved with a few simple, honest sentences, but rather was denied repeatedly in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, and then gets banned....
When a timesless vet like Ms.Claws, a paragon of the virtue of patience, starts dropping snide comments in the forums...

This is about attitude and direction of the game.
W3C is creating a game that makes targets of new players, not competitors.
Go ahead, little nooby, spend those level awards on pop and MIB's without ammo to defend yourself.

My Grandson is a WOW afficionado. I do not see their management attempting to make a level 1 character competitive with a level 80. Perhaps they have a different idea of competition.

After how many years, we still have two militaries? Can't figure out what to do with the "light" corporations if forces can attack and defend? How about light is airmobile, and heavy isn't. Problem solved.

Want the noobies to survive? How about one booster buys a year of war protection? Or five? Or are the accusations of creating a haven for Visa warriors accurate?

There are so many features of this game begging to be matured into something interesting, and what are we getting? More disasters. Literally and figuratively.

You want to apologize for this abysmal management, Romeo? Go right ahead.

I will demand better.

Tell me, Romeo, are you the "great player" with whom our lords and masters have threatened to punish us?

Now I would like to know that one.

Also I would like to warn Mister Romeo to calm the Nute bashing. It has been known to have adverse consequences on your empire indexes. With Laguna after you, it shouldn't be long.

Don't try to be a bigger fool than you already are, Romeo. That is a nearly impossible endeavor. Not to mention a laborious and fruitless one.

In case your reading abilities have diminished again (another nearly-impossibly feat), I am unhappy at you for two things: your untactful behavior and for Muldoon.

You can do what you wish and stay, but expect to stick as many needles as I can buy underneath your nails.

Never make assumptions on what I think, do or say. You always failed at reading even an evident truth on what open people think and say.

I have not been posting, because I have not been here. I have been busy with my academic career and civil duties. I'm only here today, because a matter of my concern needed my attention.

This plan to "block GR" would never have worked and I'm not the kind of person to transfer frustration around. So no, I did not participate in it.

I will tell you very clearly what I want and why once again:
I want you gone, because you are unnecessary, counter-productive, a fool, short-sighted, out of place and rude. And also as retribution in Muldoon's name.

Farm Bob. great surprise.

I am sure part of what you say is true, the question is: why do you stay?

I stayed because the game evolved and it is much better now than ever before and most of the time when I knew, I believed in where they were going.

I also see errors.
They always made some errors but the difference in the way we see it is that you think they are after you and I think that they are trying to move their model from where it was to a different place and there are things that do not move as they hoped for.

I trust them. You don't.

I have been successful in the past in getting things done.
not by swearing but by making a good point and LISTENING to the answer.

I read the answers in the past weeks and they tried to explain.

Shouting never helped with these guys and as far as I remember, Jozi and the bunch do not depend on this to make a living.

They invested a lot, and I do trust they will make it better.

so you can continue to fight them.
If I had to fight them all the time, I would not be here.

I plan to make some points with them and try to find out where it goes.
I understand the deflation point but how far will it go and does it really go proportionally?

They promissed to fix the contract pricing. When?
and much more. but I do plan to listen to their answers.

There are many limitations indeed and many should be lifted.

I remember their argument inthe past that they had to do so because people were trading on both sides (same person). someone would start a second account, loaned a lot, moved it to the other account by smart trading and cancelled the losing account.

We should show them that some of these limitations are nonsense and that there is no danger of cheating and they can remove them.

if you just tell them to remove the limit, and you don't know why it is there in the first place, it just will not happen.
One person started several hundreds wars against C3s.

There was no limit. look where it got us. Now it is 2.

I remeber many of the limits starting exactly in this way. first someone tried to cheat, then the feature was limited.

There was time I was mailing with them a lot and they used to answer.
I don't know how it is these days but I sure plan to try.

I would love to be the one who beats you up but unfortunately for now, I was neglecting my country and specially my army.

maybe in some time we will have a good fight.

I had the biggest wars ever in the game at a time where you could have 1.000.000 weapons destroyed in an hour. Maybe we ask for these numbers to come back.

Your opinion is biased, thus it is worthless.

Your words, not mine. They apply much better in your case too.

Laguna.
Bad news.
Calling me names is a clear frustration and your frustration is not going anywhere.

Get ready for more of it because your days of spreading nonsense around, unanswered and un challenged are over.

I understand your frustration but that's life. go if you can't stand it.

I remember Muldoon. She was a complete fool who claimed the most outragous nonsese as fact, invented al kinds of ideas about game functions that never existed and had people go in all the wrong directions.

Well I told her so. I remember I told her that she should ask, not claim nonsense for truth because people on the forum listen and take it seriously then they make serious errors themselves.
The game is not very easy, true but also not very difficult. Maldoon could not play it.

The truth is not always pleasant and you seem to have a problem with that.

1. Quitters don't effect changes.

2. Honesty is a prerequisite to being treated with respect.

3. Bullying makes me very, very angry.

4. Arrogance in the face of plain fact makes me very, very, very angry.

I listened patiently and with an open mind until Bravo Sierra answers were given and players were banned for calling them on it.

You really need to come play with me, Romeo. I remember the million jeep armies too and 30mil pop c3's.

Call it trial by combat if you want to be their champion.

Words Laguna.
no content what so ever.

Try some constructive content. It may help many around here.
your nonsense in my direction is not getting us anywhere.
I just tried to be constructive and find ways to make these guys move.

It does not seem to be a priority for you.
