I see people thinking of a lot of creative ideas to express their disappointment with ATA. If we want to let them know, let's do it. Go to the appstore and give pimd a one star rating, and SAY WHY. Look at how many ratings there are as of now. Now look at how many people are on pimd. If you all wanted to, you could easily put ata's games on the shit list of the appstore. They will listen.
Why? At one point you could say that you were gay without being silenced or at least I never saw anyone get silenced for it. People asked for girls and boys to chat all the time and didn't get silenced as long as it wasn't dirty chat. Most of the objection seems to come from the underage kids who don't like it and seem to think that anyone over the age of 20 has no right to be on the game. Newsflash. A COLLEGE themed game was never aimed at 12 year olds. College people drink, smoke and have sex. Hence some of the innuendo on gifts and parties. People leap up and down screaming that it's catering to 'pervs', that stupidly overused word on this game but it's simply the devs having a sense of humour that anyone over the age of consent would understand. Don't like it, don't play.
My guess Is no longer silencing for ages and locations, saying it makes it easy for pervs. I disagree with that. Saying city and town still silencable. All age does is let someone know your a certain age. Alot of you say it's a game. Games are meant to be played by all ages. This one happens to be 17 and up, but lets e honest, we've all been playing grand theft auto since we were 12 years old. And sneaking into R rated movies and all f that at Youget ages. Don't be so quick to judge the younger players. Pervs will be pervs regardless of the rules. And it is a game yes, but the chat and public chat channels make it a social app as well. Depending on what you use it for
There are also a lot of people who would like to know the age of the person they're talking to for innocent reasons. Older players may not want to be chatting to kids and kids may not want to chat to older players. Not everyone is some kind of lurking paedophile.
Well anything that assists pedos is scary but I don't read that in the changes but I can say I understand them either. The changes in Kaw listed 9 years caused 3 MOds to quit. 2 were the best Mods the game has known one only a handful will miss the other one. Encouraging us to revolt I believe is against Tou. The DEVS have a thread they do listen and the changes they claim are due to our requests. My suggestion is you list these objectionable issues on their thread. Frankly in my 3 years on ATA games I've not witnesses a more proactive Dev.
Nothing's going to change Bretton you of all people should know that it's been getting worse since disbanding days. They don't care. Lol.
This was more directed at the people who constantly post campus messages telling how the new rules suck. -_\ I see everybody disagrees.
Disbanding Days? You mean the change in pwars? In Kaw where a group of famous botters invented the pwar anomaly they are gone completely and arguably for good reasons. The mechanics were different as a OSF was pure atats as was an oaf. An OSF had to drop an item (bottle of mist) to create opposition. The bots automatically dropped mist so no hit ever got a dtw. This happened long before PIMD existed. FC Kaws twin pwars still exist but no pots or Botts. The DEVS installed new bott catching software to catch the cheats. Currently prolly Kaws biggest osw in the history of the game has been going on for just short of 2 months. Over 3,000 kawers met on a 35 clan war The DEVS busted 2 famous Botts our rivals in this war. 4 more Alts from the same ip address still to be banned. We are one of those old clans with massive 24/7 pwars ( no Botts ). These pwars gave us a huge advantage, big banks, 400-600 trillion. Once a OSF is HLBC or built complete they can't take on allies (tuts) that will create resistive stats so the funds are awarded to a small stat player that can't be attacked. That player becomes a bank. The banks grew on average 90B every 48 hours. In a year the bank or banks can strip a rival empty in hours. The banks clan then farms their investment back with 4,200 steals. Sounds tough but with 1,400 ppl in a clan easy breezy. Pwars have to go, she said while at one. The DEVS being less forceful in PIMD will make parties more profitable to fade them away.
