From looking at all the bitching and complaining about the new item market, or how points and the pawn shop have changed, or whatever else you want to bitch about this week d3vl, damn get a life.
So I have been playing this game a while, and there have always been changes. You can argue they are good or bad (depending on how it directly effects you), but at least he is making changes that force you to adapt to a new way to play. Sure people in the old days had it easier to make money, and sure that isn't fair to new players, but this game is about longevity. The longer you play the better you get. Unless you are a whale there is no way to get gud quickly. And who cares about those whales? Let them spend their money so you can play a free game. How many games are free these days (or at the very least don't bombard you with ads every 5 sec)? I keep playing this game because it doesn't become boring over time like other games. New items, new functions, etc... Just like life, some updates are great, and some suck.
For those of you saying Ched needs to learn how to build a game, well it seems like he has built a pretty good game with a huge player base. Plus, how many of you complainers are out there making your own game? Oh that's right, you aren't. You just want to bitch when you have to adapt. "But Ched should listen to the players" Why? Because a few people are loud and think that they are entitled to have their voice heard? Pssh go complain to the void more. Or leave the game (looking at you D3vl).
In closing, either go build your own game with whatever you think is better, or STFU. I'll be here another 20 years.
After hitting 20 years in this game I was curious on how many of us are still around playing. Is there a way to pull that number? And sorry, restarts aren't counted.
Also Ched, where are our 15 and 20 years of service merits?
Following the results of a city-wide poll, the people of Torn decided that the first 100 people to reach Level 100 should be given nothing. So here it is. Absolutely diddly squat. Zilch. Nada. Nowt.
