Article
Dear readers.
After all published shouts, articles, etc. the path where this game will end is sealed. First to clear some facts. We all know that a few days ago some players used a proxy script which caused a lot of problems. For those who still don't know: In an invasion of multies/bots that attacked our monetary markets, an attack where thousands of bots bought on both sides of MM to create a horrible amount of free gold. That was a big goldprint action. What was the conclusion. First the ones who was rich became even more rich and those who didn't have anything got a chance to make some money and second:
The most important: that was no bug. To clear what is a bug is, we can ask Mr. Wikipedia. For my article it will be enough:
A software bug is an error, flaw, failure or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways.
It means that either the ban reason is false or that Mr. Admin made a failure in the system which caused an incorrect or unexpected result, making thousands of multies buying gold and currency.
Next one. Few things about the ban hammer. I'm thankful that on every new server staff is publishing an article with Game-laws. To make it short. If we make the point that this botfarm was a bug (although it was not) the law says:
If a player finds a bug in-game and utilises it in order to cause damage to, or gain an advantage over other players, they will be penalised depending on the scale of the offence. The penalty can vary from a temporary ban to permanent ban.
I marked the important things in that point. First I really would love to see how that "scale" looks like. What scales did they make in case of exploitation? I would prefer clarity by staff in this point. Second. If someone takes advantage to that bug why do they not apply a debt-penalty? In this case it would have been fair and it's far more effective to fine the people who took advantage, "depending on the scale of the offence". But no. The only way to penalize people is the permanent ban. But wait. How can it be that those who initiated that "multi-invasion" and some others are unbanned again?
The solution is the fact that all people who invest money in this game were unbanned. It's nothing new that gold-buyers have more advantages and possibilities than others but we reached a level where staff don't react to critism, silence about the topic, rather they practise a massive censorship to silence all critical voices it means that it could be that this article will be deleted soon with an also ridiculous reason of "insulting and provoking staff" or something like that.
We reached months ago a point where such actions will make this game die. And Esim will die far more faster than we may think it will. It's almost time for game owners to think about what's more important; to continue favoring all gold buyers or trying something new making this game attractive again for newbies and oldies. If second it will be only reached with changes and not with:
It shouldn't have been done this way
Staff got tons of suggestions on all servers to make this game attractive again but they doesn't even react to them. It's a shame what happens. And this game will die when the last goldbuyer turn off the lights because it's senseless to play Esim anymore.
Best regards,
E.
About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
