Hey guys,

Thanks for the new 'retrain' button immediately after battles; it's really helpful.

The crown ship is an interesting development, to buy 100% more crowns than normal, spread over 7 days, instead of straightaway.

Like most guys, I've looked at it and thought maybe for emergencies, but definitely not often. Not for me anyhow.

So please, please, please could you reduce the automatic red exclamation mark alerts, EVERY SINGLE TIME that the crown ship is available.

Sure, it's ok to warn us that it's come back, the first time that it's back, like you do with Marco... but it's unnecessary to warn us every single time we read the warnings...

It just looks a bit desperate when the alert is always on (which I'm sure was not the intention. Presumably just an accidental programming oversight?).

Reduce the warnings to the same as Marco and it'll all be cool.

Thanks! :)

It's funny which negativity you react to: my negativity about what l consider a trivial issue vs his negativity about a trivial issue. :D

You need a life, or job, or hobby, something!

Oh Mani, dear oh dear, oh dear...

There's a lovely quote by Eleanor Roosevelt that kinda sums you up: "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people".

I used to be impressed that you'd got an incredible 1,310 posts and ten bars. And then I realised that nearly all of your posts are negging on genuine posters who have something useful to say. I imagine that, once upon a time, a long while ago, perhaps you used to post about actual issues. And then you got bored and decided to troll folks instead...

That's ok. There are clubs and political parties for folks like you. Please join one. You'll feel more comfortable there...

(thanks for raising the tone back to where it needed to be No Angel! Love it)

It's my hobby pointing out ridiculousness in all its forms. You complained about something that bothers you in a section called Bugs and Known Issues. The crown ship alert is, frankly, neither.
But who knows, maybe it's time to leave this forum to the children. Thanks for giving me the push.

Ps: And thank you, for proving your own point. :D
Pps: you were impressed by my posts and bars? Really, there are much more deserving things that should impress you.

Mani, yup there are far more deserving things that genuinely impress me... The Brasilian rain forest, eco aircraft, China's rail network, desalination plants for the developing world, cancer vaccines... but you don't seem to want to troll about those...

Negging is trolling, pure and simple, however much you try to dress it up after the fact. And especially when you always need to make it personal.

Beyond Roosevelt's observant comment on human nature, there's a more contemporary one... Stronger teams play the ball, weaker teams take down the man... So try playing the game. If you've got no issues with anything Nexon are doing, and there's nothing you can think to improve, then be happy to just sit tight, perhaps even post some praise and thanks for the awesome work that the devs are doing (because they do)... then let the rest of us make some analyses, suggestions, discussions... When you feel able to contribute to others' creativity, feel free to jump in... Just play the ball, instead of needing to hurt original posters.

If you can only get your satisfaction by negging, I'd urge you to seek counselling. You need some positivity in your Life. You will feel better for it afterwards...

(Edit: Let it go, buddy. I assume you'll reply, but I'm gonna end my input to this one here. I'll respond to you on a topic by topic basis, constructively around the issues relevant to the topic. Ridiculous happens. Ridiculous is also subjective. Some people think seat belts are ridiculous. Or smoking bans. Or taxes. I agree with the last, lol. Criticism hurts. You love to give it out, so I assume you're mature enough to take it. When you're back to calm again you might want to consider why an absolute stranger, whose only interaction with you is responding to your forum replies, might talk to you like this. Sure, I'm being an a-hole. But are there things you can change in your own behaviour? Can you be a better man?)

I'm more than happy to take it and I'm more than happy to talk to you on a number of topics but I'll always 'tell it like it is', I only hope you can also take it 'like it is'.
See you around the forum then! :D
