if this is inappropriate please tell me how



Ok I have had pretty much enough. I see it everyday and its really getting on my nerves. People are complaining about getting paid and then a person that cashed out with them got paid that same month. How come certain people in this game get what ever they want and others suffer? I for one am pretty upset with this. I get messages from people wondering why two people in the game are running it. Do they spend that much money that they now own the game? I know i spend a lot of money and i know several others that spend a lot of money on the game that dont get the same treatments.

I really like this game and its a shame that two people is ruining it for everyone. How can two people get so much control. They dont have to listen to the admins cause they just go over there heads and get anything they want. I for one am sick of this. If it takes me to quit buying moves and quit buying a sub i guess i will have to do this. Hmm i bet i am sounding like someone else now lol. When someone says something they disagree with they go to the boss and tell him. If they catch that person in chat then they berate him and treat him bad. I remember when people used to get banned for that. I think its time for us players to stand up and let it be known were not happy with these two people.

Ohh and how come when someone finds them they get free homestead moves and they share more coords then anyone i know. Poor cheetah and adams got hit by everyone in there alliance within 24hrs of someone finding them. Now that is crazy. I thought sharing coords were against the rules. remember when the two complained before about it.

The game is just a game. I happen to like the game but i am willing to take drastic measures to ensure that people gets fair treatment in it. I hope if i do them others will follow me. I know it makes me sad all the money i have spent on this game and just because two people it sucks to play anymore.

Please everyone if you think what i have written is true and you support it post your name and let it be known im not the only one with these feelings.

I dropped my old alliance pretty quick after seeing Eric's post about sharing coordinates.  That was a big portion of that decision.  I don't personally know if sharing between anyone else has occurred, but from things I have heard from others, it wouldn't surprise me.  Until Eric came out and said something about it, I thought it was ok between alliance members.

The issue here at has kept me from buying moves or putting anything else into the game is the payouts that have gone to some that have cashed out very recently, while 'lesser known' players that cashed out many months ago are begging on the Payout & Prize Forum for their cash.

The amount of "giveaway" trades between alliance members (and this has happened in more than a couple of alliances) right before someone cashes out is not really unexpected, but seeing "giveaways" going back to the player that has cashed out is just unreal.  Some will wait a couple of weeks to send things back slowly, but it happens.  A player got banned from the game recently over being less stealthy about it and just shipping out MD's, but what is happening around these other players is really not anything different.  Not against the written rules (especially not with trading the way it is), but definitely against the spirit of the rules and game.

The issues may be happening from a very small number of people out of the thousands that have registered, but it only takes one person to see begging for a $5 promised payout to disregard the game and thrash it across other message boards.  When that happens and "non-shareholders" get paid out easily and quickly, there are major issues.

Yep I do aggree with ya on this because something has to be done before folks decide not to buy moves and cancel there subscriptions.

I have seen alot of it that newbies comes in then they see all the arguing and how those 2 being rude to someother players and they quit playing and also folks is started to lose interest in the game cause of it and might be canceling there subscriptions.

Thats the truth because they complained about 1 alliance posted coordinates on the forum and how can the same alliance attack slow and adams within 24 hours period that is hard to do unless they were sharing the coordinates to each other thru the msn or yahoo. If thats not cheating then what its called a beauty contest cause they know that they only get the slap on the wrist. And arguing with folks with in the room and start trouble and nothing will happen to them but if someone else does they will get banned from the game period. That right there is favoritism.

All players should be treated equal but its not because they put alot of money into the game. I believe that they own the game simple as that. Royal treatment to the perfection and they allow to do everything wrong and agruing but nothing will happen to them.
But one thing alot of other folks buy moves and get a subscriptions like they do but do they received the royal treatment like they do nah they don't because they will get banned in a heart beat.

I am thinking about canceling my subscription if nothing is done about those 2 folks and find some other game. I really loved this game but if nothing is done I will quit.

I, although some points unaware (e.g. about the cash out thing), agree with most points made by taco and jeff.... it is unfair

If money really is MORE important than the overall game image and game play of its members, then the "I AM THE KING" card and "I OWN GMs (game moderators)" cards may as well be sold in the purchase page of the site so that people with money can get everything their way in game...



Eric: if you are reading this, i have been quite offended by a specific member always throwing nasty comments at me and other members.. with her sarcasm and name calling... but i have not emailed you about it because i know you wouldnt do anything about it...
also, i have also seen you let their wrong doings slide by....no punishment
(you should know what im talking about because im know avs and glory sure does...)

sorry, i also agree on points made and restated by spyder.

forgot to add....
decent people...LOVELY people like ckirk are thinking about leaving Exodus3000 for good because of some of the actions
She even said she liked those two but just cant stand arguments...

I too enjoy chatting with one of them when she is calm. but it is rare to see even 1 day of no argument in chat nowadays, it really is saddening.

Also, it is disgusting the way the moderators are treated, they deserve way more respect from those two than they receive now..
Glory: i am sincerely grateful for all the help you have done in trade and all... dont let some other people get you down.. GO GLORY!!! and Avs Tongue

something else we were all talking about in chat. how come one person complains about a name being inappropriate but her friend talks about smoking and being messed up all the time. Something needs to be done. a guy had to change his name cause of it and they talk about it at night more then anyone i know. This is wrong. wow i should just shut up. but they get away with so much that the normal player would be banned for

I must admit I have to agree with Jeff.

 Though I do not tend to say a lot in chat I have it open, and on, a lot of the time, and have seen players get banned for far less than has gone on recently. The sheer aggresiveness of what has gone on in chat
and in some of the forum posts just astounds me it doesn't, or shouldn't be tolerated in the 'Real' world and nor should it be here.

Especially as there are a lot of younger players here.

The Admins should be respected by ALL players and have the FULL backing of Eric, he appointed them in the first place and
they are only carrying out what he wants them to do. There should really be a No-Tolerance policy about disrespecting the Admins
If you disrespect them you are actually disrespecting Eric.

I really do not know what has happend to the game. When I started in May there was none of the arguments or agression that there is now
but, there again, Eric was more IN the game then ..... Is that a factor ... With the lack of payments to some players and the apparent lack of
response from Eric to their complaints and Emails, coupled with the total disregard by some people to general decent conversation with no action taken against them.

This game is slowly starting to decay I only hope that something is done before the rot goes to far and no amount of additional features
30/30's 21/21's etc will pull it back.

I have no intention of threatening to pull out of the game if x or y is not done, if it gets so bad that I really don't enjoy it anymore I'll just stop playing.


Seems slightly inappropriate fro this thread ...But ...


Have Fun

im not threatening to pull out of the game "if x or y is not done", im saying that if one player gets banned for voicing the absolute truth and their opinion, then i will back them up....

"This game is slowly starting to decay" --- mgoody: i could not agree more
would this have happened from the beginning if there was a night admin to moderate all these rubbish?

"Especially as there are a lot of younger players here. " --- yes i have seen very inappropriate sites posted, nothing happened to her even after reporting...

well worded jeff and I too will quit or get bannned because these 2 people have control of the game, it was uncalled for the way those 2 women ripped into jeff in open chat.  i always thought Eric owned the game? whoever gave these 2 the right to tell spyderdude he can't use the nick stonedspyderman?  he's on meds, leave him alone. Bex herself last night was using inaapropiate words, did she get kicked? NO.
I'm with you jeff and adams spyderdude and slow and all the others who enjoy this game, and thats it

Also I believe this is the White House cause they can do whatever they want too and get into trouble but they get a lolipop for causing trouble and keep on doing it.

When they get into trouble all they have to say I am the President's daughters and let go.

Thats how this game is because they harrass and cause alot of trouble but nothing is done to them cause they put alot of money into the game. Oh were the president daughters can do what they want and cause trouble and get a lolipop and get a hug for doing a wonderful job.
