Who owns Innogames as a company whole?
Do they have a CEO or a staff or is it just a partnership among a few programmers that joined to make an incorporated business here?
Once I learn whom to speak to at the top brass, I will express a great many of accompanying friends that have formed a petition
against such purchases in the game. Gold is bad enough as it is and even buying it de-equalizes the classic playing field of strategy games on a foundational level.
One does not pay the opponent in a chess match, do to so would defile a persons honor and stain their character very directly and more seriously than many think would be possible.
There is a respect among people who stand and deliver the fair play strategy games offer to all walks of life.
To denounce this baseline format and express buffers by purchased units and buffs is widely viewed as despicable and unbecoming any sort of a gentleman's game.
I feel personally responsible to speak for my fellow players in all servers the world over to represent our desire
to keep classical strategy a main part of Grepolis and keep out milking who they will for their money many dont care about to spend seemingly unlimited.
I wish to reserve the rights to play fair and have the equal field we all start with, knowing any foe that faces my alliance would have the same tactics available with out running out the poor while keeping only the rich to buy crowns. Its going to lose you a lot of gold buyers
and your loyal customer base will dwindle. The rich will grow bored like they do in most other things eventually, fancying only what they wish for the moment.
Many rich or well off people seem to me as spoiled, having only being handed their money or inheriting it and loosely blowing it on a game effect really spoils the rest of us very quickly.
Do not make this change available.
Make more lasting changes, like an engineer building and added weaponry that is researched to unlock and use, as well as added ship types or abilities trained ingame with gold or with time like everything else is.
Make lasting additions to the game everyone can use alike.
People who only buy 10 dollars worth of gold to use are still a valued resource of income asset to you all here at Innogames.
I stress you treat us all with the same ideal favor and equality we deserve as free people.
If we so chose, we could all quit and render your lights off for good, if united in this cause.
I have such a large company opposing this idea, it has now moved to petition status to firmly make our point known clear.
You want to keep making money, we want to keep playing.
Consider that when you think on what youll decide here, its a fair thing to ask for.
Cordially your concerned gamer and loyal community supporter to and for the people,

Grepolis player since its creation.
