Reset?

pTr · **on:** October 12, 2007, 09:51:42 pm

Is it just me or does anyone else think there should be another reset? The airline value system is wierd(examples will follow).. and with airlines leasing all those planes(dun think examples are needed)... I'm a little lost on what I should be doing... and sorry if I'm sounding a little rude, but for the past 10 hours.. it doesn't seem like the admins are doing anything about it..

Airline value:
http://www.airlinemogul.com/airlinemogul/view_airline.php?id=4570
someone please tell me why this airline is worth €6,113,414
http://www.airlinemogul.com/airlinemogul/view_airline.php?id=5207
and also, why this one is worth €12,026,957, he/she doesn't even own a single plane..

If the game really isn't ready yet, in my opinion, the game shouldn't be started. I dun mind waiting longer for the admins to perfect the system before actually letting it operate.

I'm not saying the airlines above are cheating, I'm just saying the value looks funny

Besides the brokers somehow people are cheating and they will be found.

I'd admit I didn't do anything in the 10 hours prior to this past hour.That comment wouldn't be fair to other admins though.
(According to someone, I am useless anyway, so it doesn't matter).

and yes, they are being found as we are speaking.

Its not about finding them out... its about the system not being operational just yet..

We should play a small mini-round... of say 72 earth hours.... just so we can ensure all the modules have been tried and tested in the real working environment.

Better alternative than playing from 1950-2007 with bugs.

First, this round goes from 1950~1960.

Second, if you think we could get all the rule-violating accounts banned in 72 hours, you are an optimist. I can't do that even if I don't sleep.

The people who I have spoken to today would testify that I am emotionally high right now... at least when compared to when I spoke with them.

actually.. another choice would be.. when the game starts.. reset the whole thing.. so everyone would be back to the starting point

Then what was the purpose of the 24 hour pause? It wasn't for testing (okay the first reset kind of was), it was so that everyone could establish themselves at their convenience (not when the game starts).

Rampant cheating is a common thing on any MMORPG. You have to be prepared to accept cheating as a common occurance before even starting a MMORPG. Luckily, the admins of this game seem to be very active.

At the moment, all non-official broker airlines are only suppose to have 1 plane, so its easy to tell if they are cheating, but what about later on in the game when people own thousands of aircrafts? I dun believe the team has enough man-power to search through each and every one of the accounts. Plus.. we don't want the admins to be over stressed do we? so thats why I'm suggesting the game to be closed until the problems is solved.

No worries... we are over-stressed already. I am feeling like exploding.

We are recruiting 3 membership officers though. Email Stephen with the required information (and preferably more) if you are interested.

oh.. and cheating won't be noticed further into the round, so no big deal

I think 3 might be enough to cover the ammount of work you do. We'll have to expand later.
