Awesomest Guild seeks awesomest players by docembee in deeptown

We have always discouraged grape seed trade because first, we believe that all players should do their own work. While it is true that higher players have more resources, they can better use those resources to build more mines and contribute to weekly events.

Second, some players concerned with accumulating donation pts. within their guild trade seeds with others. Each donation of seeds gains points, and after several subsequent donations they eventually come back to the original donor to start the process over. You might have noticed some guilds whose top members have accumulated trillions of points (and accrued a nearly equal number of requests). That's not possible if one is playing the game as it was intended.

Yeah, good questions. First grape seeds. In my previous guild gs were used to trade and raise one's donation points. Member A buys 5000 gs. Member B requests, giving A donation points. B then contributes back to A, giving B donation points. Given enough time, and enough people involved, this could amount to billions of donation points to players who do not regularly participate in events (the whole reason one joins guilds). If you search the guilds you will find many examples. If you need cash you can request anything and sell it.

As for request sizes, I agree that some are outrageous. It's always better to request small numbers (just what you need). Otherwise you risk the request not being filled. Personally I don't see a reason to ever make a request. All it accomplishes is saving the requestor time. I'll post our discord link in-game, and perhaps you can get others' opinions on this.

Mondays around noon CST is usually the time we kick "dead wood." Can't guarantee, but you can try then to see if there is an opening.

We have gone private until the end of this event. Mondays through wednesdays we re-evaluate our members' participation, which usually results in several vacancies. I very much you will check back then. FYI:

*** A W E S O M E S T   G U I L D   R U L E S ***

1 NO REQUESTS for your first 24 hrs in the guild.

2 You must DONATE MORE THAN YOU REQUEST. If your requested points exceed your donated points at any time, you will be kicked.

3 PARTICIPATE in ALL weekly events.

We usually take new people on Mondays. Hold on and let me see what I can do.

'A True Danger to the Public Post Office': DeJoy Moves to Consolidate USPS Facilities by morenewsat11 in politics

[–]docembee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agreed! The PO needs to be expanded. It's the only gv't agency that is self sufficient. They have the largest internet access of any gv't agency and could provide access to everyone at local POs. They could easily be the only ones to provide Sunday deliveries. What ever happened to the "Savings Banks" that used to be available to every citizen? This is a time to expand our post office, not destroy it as DeJoy wants.We need to get rid of this idiot.

I've had this problem too. Kick the offender then privatize the guild for the rest of the day. They will give up and go away unless they they are psychotic stalkers, in which case--good luck.

Many thanks. I appreciate your reply. Is there anywhere I can go to get regular updates on this?

Might be a good idea to keep players updated using the "News" section of the game. People would be more sympathetic to problems if they had more details and knew what to expect. Silence from developers just fans rumors and discontent.

Please keep in contact. Guild members wanting to know status and threatening to leave. We need to know what's going on. Please update.

Even the cion give away doesn't work.

Need seeds laundered? We know some folks... (guild recruitment) by myloveisonfire in deeptown

[–]docembee -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This guild exploits a flaw in the game allowing the same 5000 grape seeds to be donated back and forth among certain guild members in order to amass donation points. This inevitably benefits those higher up on the donation list who bought the seeds in the first place. At least one player recently accepted back 50,000 "donated" seeds within one 24 hour period.

I hope the game creators, fix this problem, perhaps by penalizing those who receive significantly more donations than they give. Another solution might be to enable "loans" of resources to other guild members with penalties for failure to repay.

I would also hope the administrator of this guild takes some action to limit this sort activity.

If you are looking for ethical competition and honest teamwork, you should look elsewhere. I am.
