you'll have to get some LP. it really is not that hard.
are you majoring in theatre at your local community college or something? get real. calm down. stop bitching. make actual critiques and suggestions instead of raging the fuck out at everything.
I got a suggestion for you, kiss my fucking ass you appologetic ass kisser you should feel right at home in the crack. how's that? 6000 base LP? And how much character lp is that at 360% learning ability? STFU with the "base LP" crap trying make it seem less than it really is where actual work is concerned. You try to make it appear as though even IF a player grinded out 6000 character lp for an hour clear cutting (Instead of actually playing the game or doing everyday village maintanence which gives so little LP that hour would actualy be 4 without a break) that they would be fine, but according to the statements that is NOT fine. How much "Base lp" would actually have been added to the authority from 6000 character LP at 360% LA? The truth is, according to the statements, that your character would actually need to grind out 21600 personal LP to have grindined 6000 base lp...so fucking say it like it really is. That's about 3 hours of relaxed clear cutting + stamina breaks per day just to BREAK EVEN (Or maybe 1 1/2 hours of OCD carpal tunnel cutting with tea.). Exactlly how is it that you find that "reasonable" as the new "game". By the fucking time you are finished with that you really don't have the time or ambition to then do all the regular daily tasks you need to do in your village that MAY actually give you some extra "base lp" to your authority. That's the fucking point, the game is nothing but grinding lp now to keep a village up and casual players will have nothing else to do but keep on top of the authority grind. They can't map, or socialize, or decorate or silk make, or walkabout or anything else because the tiny lp it produces just will not cover the constant drain. It is as I said, nothing but a orgasm for you and the small group of megas. All the casual, small and normal players will now be able to do nothing but authority grind in effort to keep their village idols up between them and their small groups.
Suggestions? Why? It has been clear for fucking MONTHS man that unless a suggestion or critique comes from you and your little buddies like Jackard it NEVER get's anything but pissed on, laughed off, pashawed or ripped to shreads no matter how good, bad, reasonable, or noobish it is. A suggestion would be like Emina said, to find some reasonable way to judge whether or village is active or not...such as time online. But that's too simple, doesn't grief enough, and gives NO benefit to the "shiney medal clique". Which of course renders it useless and not worth the time. Sure if the Learning ability was factored in and character LP was driven straight to the Authroity as is THEN your argument (or appolgetic jargon) would at least have some basis in fact where the attempt to "calm it down" was concerned. But it doesn't because that too is way too simple and wouldn't provide Loftar the joy of smoking another pipe and playing with his pretty calculations to see what new game grief he could add that would both polefuck casual players while giving you and your buds a shit and giggle to cement your positions. Any 2 week noob could see a better way to decay abandoned villages IF that were really the point of this update or excercise which it was NOT! That's where the anger comes from.
