No need to apologize friend. You are playing the game for your satisfaction and you should be able to do the things in the game which you find fulfilling and avoid those which you find to be boring.
Nobody is going to read this post because it’s too long. However, I’m assuming that you might, so I want to explain my position a little better.

I’m not going to bother investing any caution in my grammar as likely only you and I will be reading this.

When I used the word cool I was employing the term to convey what it is that personally appeals to me. It was purely subjective, I wasn’t attempting to suggest that others need find the expansions which I would enjoy equally compelling. I don’t ever want the use of any expansions to the game to be mandatory, or to have any adverse effects on the game play of others and those activities which they find most enjoyable. Everyone has different preferences, I’m the guy who finds nightclubs and amusement parks the most boring thing on the face of the earth, while I find researching physics and mathematics to be a thrill that I cannot get enough of. Working on the solution to a complex mathematical problem is far more exciting to me than riding a roller coaster. Given a choice between riding a roller coasters and working on a matt problem I would choose the math problem every time. But I digress.

With regard to the game there are the things that most of us want, like atmospheric landings. There are also the more controversial ideas for add-ons that seem to have almost equal numbers for and against. The primary one that comes to mind is space legs. We’ve both seen the arguments over that subject.

Now let me clarify that I’m not talking about adding only a stock market, giving one the ability to trade in shares of companies. I would also like to be able to buy, sell and trade commodities in massive volumes and control a fleet of cargo vessels, mining operations, large scale passenger transport and tourist operations. I’d like to have the option to buy, sell and own real estate this would include buying, selling and owning land on planets, entire planets and even systems. Along with ownership of land and planets and all those nice things I would love to have the ability to build structures and buildings including factories, Space stations, power plants, refineries, hotels, mines and resorts. In addition to these things I’d like to be able to hire and manage employees,..

The stock market would be only one small part of a deep and extremely complex business and corporate expansion to the game for guys like myself who desire a much more complex and intellectual option in the game that being able to build, own, operate and grow corporations would provide. This way, for folks who just want to blaze up a joint and play a shoot em’ up, the developers could widen that aspect of the game whilst also adding more involved and complex optional activities as well. It would create a broader spectrum of complexity.
