I have always stated that this game is great, however some of the updates made the game too easy, and nerfed things that would have made people play this game longer ... however, balancing is a juggling act, yup, advertising is a great approach, I introduced a few people to build up the player base, also was like Bigheaded and Kalms with competitions to keep it alive, give more incentives, however, I do have limits, we just need players that can persevere and the game creator to put in more love to the game, even if some of the old updates & nerfs be removed. Maybe some more content, which would be easier.
But again ... I have null voted on this suggestion, yes it is a good idea to advertise, and the OP is an old gamer with the same passion as others like myself and you. However, the community of loyalists to the game have been forking out to support this game, it is original and different to others, but I would like to see a "Council of Members / Trusted or not" formed and have some say in implementing and testing a lot of the suggestions from different people, like
myself, Cartrack,
and many more.
Thus Null vote.
