Don't be discouraged from a few harsh words from the big bad wolf. Personally i think there's a decent amount of merit in your ideas and i can relate to your enthousiasm. I still have hopes for Dcity and key in any success in the long term is player involvement.So kudos to your ideas and the underlying thoughts.
Something the current president seems oblivious to.
I really appreciate that. A lot of people don't realize the amount of work that goes into putting something like this together (not to mention just putting the post together). As far as the big bad wolf . . . I never take anything personal coming from Jelly :) I've known him for quite awhile.
I always think of this gif whenever I see him commenting in discord . . . lol.
Thanks for commenting BTW!
...this is making it sound like you are addressing me (when you are actually addressing Luca) 🤔
... didn't ask for your help. Just pointing out how it appears on peakd (not hive.blog).
Appreciate it!
Also . . . I'm always up to discuss different ways we can make things better or easier (regarding dCity) . . . and I value your opinion. So feel free to reach out any time!
Yeah, i gotta take the credit for the wolf remark, but don't be offended, i rather enjoy the huffing and puffing. But rest assured, the cute bear image is not fooling me one bit. ;)
As far as the oblivious part is concerned, i was merely referencing to your current tax levels. Ofcourse all the good will (kudos again Mary)or malcontent are irrelevant if nothing new happens on the investment part of this investment game.
I am glad you made an exception and quite pleased to hear my word selection is appreciated by you. The feeling is mutual and i must admit that your particular style and sarcasm has grown on me in my absence from active play.
As you may have gathered from some of my latest remarks,i left Dcity because i was dissapointed in the lack of developments on the investment part of the game and missed opportunities. Also i was frustrated that any input given seemed to fall on barren ground.
With the shifted focus on holding rewards my enthousiasm slowly recovered, as i think that's the economic model that fits the bill perfectly for sustainable growth of the game, as long as it is backed by actual investments with an actual yield. And when i finally realised that the APR in Hive was invertedly proportional to the price of sim (higher apr with lower sim price) i realised that ia better sim/hive peg had emerged. Dcity might not be a dead horse, but rather a crippled pony, in need of a vet and some decent fattening up.
For the first time in a long while i started buying cards again instead of just sellng them off. The investment side of the game is still vague and non-transparent, but there is enough to sustain a balanced peg (not so much on your tax levels) and opportunities a plenty to fatten up the pot. But those will likely remain missed opportunities as i see little happening on idea or investment level.
Maybe i have gone a bit off track wth this comment, starts to look like a post.
My replies are not limited to a format. Still plenty points raised were addressed, if you read between the lines a bit. But i might draft a bulletpoint, direct response to address each pont raised with the attention befitting to non horse manure remarks in a format more to your liking.
