History -Makes pretty fun game that happens to have an extreme sexual theme. This in itself is fine. Sex sells. The fact that sex is filtered here says a lot about their hypocrisy. -Markets game to children through various social networks. Facebook/twitter/ads. Lots of dirt here. -Is required by apple to slap on a 17 age recommendation. This means nothing. If anything, all it does is make kids lie about their age. I see it on the lb, mods have done it, it's everywhere. That 22 year old you're hitting on is probably 14. -Game slowly becomes more pay to win, although still not too bad. (parties were introduced here) This splits the player base. -Other games are failing (fc and gaw) so they compensate by increasing profits from here and kaw. -Does "promos" which encourage people to spend time and money on pimd or fall slightly behind. The first "stronger" avatars happened here. If you didn't get the avatars you fell behind greatly stat-wise. -Makes game extremely pay to win and demanding of time. (cat cafe introduced) Further splits the player base. Many long term players leave, but the majority stay. -Knows the majority of players also use the game for a relationship or have developed a relationship on here. Most forumers don't, but forums are actually pretty dead now. If you are reading this, you are the minority and your opinions really don't matter to ATA. -Makes relationship feature. More pay to win, also encourages in-game dating. You aren't going to spend ec on somebody you don't trust. This is a great way to get people who don't care about stats to pay a little extra. Remember ATA gets most of their money from you simply playing their game. That roleplayer who spends 8 hours at a time on here makes them more money than the person who plays once every few days but spends real money. You do not have to spend anything. Many big players forget this and wonder why ATA doesn't listen to them. You are the minority.
i agree on most of that but the avi thing. They havent made any exactly as strong as the christmas dude true but they have a couple of close 39% strength ones.
So many 16 yr old below wants rs thingy, pimd now turns to dating game and so many pervy like me wants rp like me jk. btw i miss the old Party In My Dorm!
It's important for them to know we are unhappy and can't be swept under the rug. No matter how hard they try to ignore us and how many lackeys they use to try and make it happen
Yet we all still show up and continue to play because we have either met friends on here... Have an addiction to power abd the need to continue to grow and compete... Or really could care less cause its just a game and whatever ata brings is ok. I personally could care less... Im here for the people and enjoy the bs in cc and have the choice to either spend or not... Use new features or not. I dont like a lot of the changes but if i was on the ata side of the equation id smile everytime i got a bank statement.
You forgot the way devs tell you to email them with your complaints and then ignore them, OP. Other than that I think you did an awesome job with this thread.
