You are no better than tyrants.

That is how I feel at least. I loved (pay attention to the PAST tense) this game. I enjoyed this game. I do not like wanting to quit this game.

Forums: Ghost Town.........Reason: People are quitting
Game: Ghost Town......... Reason: The new auto-spawning enemy dominators.

You are an unrelenting force of horror!
First BIG mistake you ever made (in my time) was the COUNTRY WIDE BATTLEGROUPS. Which changed to regional, JUST AS YOU SCHEMED, which was not really that much better considering the 22 state spanning Mountain & Midwest Battlegroup. Next up: Another increase in the lag and crashes. Maybe that will start to improve for the 4S users, who now have 4G. After that you created the Tomte. I mean, it discouraged PVP by making people laze around at Tiermes spawn to kill a 10 hp spirit for.. 25-30 unbuffed energy?

After a brief reprieve from the chaos, you put in these.... doms...
In the beggining they actually increased lag and crashing, and though it is now lower, it still constantly happens.

You have not fixed alt farming, but have now started encouraging it? This campaign is a complete failure and needs to be SHUT DOWN.

I am sorry if I am ranting incoherently.

It's just, people spent hours trying to help you out on these forums, and you dismiss them with a simple SINGLE STATEMENT. People send you proof of physical threatening, being POSSIBLE, and that they are possibly in danger, and you do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. (Talking about my friend >_<)

I spent over 100+ hours trying to help you out, and you do not comment on ANYTHING, except a poem and a few post where i took a break. You show absolutely no care for ANYONE on these forums. You dismiss are responses and constructive criticism like we are flies and you are just swatting us away.

Well I have to say you are quite easily succeeding this time.

So many people are quitting.... I am getting to the point that I just can't take it. I haven't checked these forums in 4 days. I usually check it every single day. I am on the verge of quitting I have found other games. I went back to Puzzle Pirates. It might be an old CPU RPG(8 years) but at least they listen to their ****ing customers/players. (The game is free, though you can buy an alternative money to speed up purchases of furniture/items/etc.)

If I quit this game, chances are I will never come back. I am tired of seeing GA, who started out amazingly, go so corrupt.

This is how this campaign helps you with proift.

People have to buy pots to destroy all the ****ing enemy doms they spawn!!

I will return tommorow. Depending on the response/new campaign....... I will decide to stay, quit, or wait. I doubt I will stay, but I HOPE TO GOD, you can make me wait.

Good luck pulling this game out of the ****hole.

From, Taylor Logan Cockerham,
..........An Active Architect Forumst & Potential Lost Customer

.... I am gone....

I am only one person, so I am not a big impact, but I doubt I am alone.
I am finished with this game.
I will only do the following.

1. Log in to game to keep in touch with friends. I will no longer compete, just destroy the green doms when I log on (considering I hardly ever crash).

2. Check the forums for interesting topics, and to keep of the counting game. Interesting topics include: Works of Literature in the Off-Topics, new "un-renewed" suggestions, that contain originality, and to check on the update possibilities to see if I will come back.

3. Update my books as I write them
--------Story of Spectroma (Am at beggining of Chapter 4)(Chapters 4-6 planned out)
--------Quest of Madness (Am at the middle of chapter 3)(Chapter 3 planned out)
--------Wanderer of the World (Unposted) (At the middle of chapter 4)(Chapters 4-10 planned out)
--------Archives of the Ancients (At the beginning of Chapter 2)(Chapters 2-5 planned out)

4. To check for information on the other 2 games you are making, so I can possibly play them before destruction.

5. If you are lucky, I will still try and think of ideas for this game. If I get a good one, I just might post it.

6. I will continue to update the following posts as I add on to them.
-------- Ultimate Guide For GA: Problem Solutions
-------- Add-Ons & Settings: Forum/Game Improvements
-------- New Sigil List (Current: 117)
-------- Spirit Houses: Old and New

Special Case
-------- New Spirits

I will continue to update this one, but I will strive to "tableize" it. I will attempt to make it neater when I update, as well as better detailed.

Note: I will not work on these as constantly as before.



GA, there is no hope in this game anymore. There is no future. I hope to GOD you come to your senses and somehow revive the hope and bright future this game had.

I do not have any hope in YOU anymore either. You have shown as your gifts, and your amazing flaws. Your amazing flaws all have to deal wit customer interaction and satisfaction. I do BELIEVE, that someone there has sense and is trying to stop your rampage, but again, I have no more hope in this.

I for one am beyond waiting. Shadow Cities has now been deleted from both my iPhone and my iPad. I am done.

BTW, Taylor, the 4G thing only applies to AT&T, but it does seem to help. I've noticed since I updated to iOS5.1, my speeds bottom out at 6Mbps. My speeds are now topping out at 13-14Mbps and averaging around 10-11mbps. Something in the hardware seems to have been unlocked. It's still the same HSPA network, but speeds have improved drastically.

Yeah, I only know about it because my parent's have the 4S and AT&T.

Btw, keep in touch with me on Facebook, I'll send you a message when I get home so you know who I am. I have spent to much time trying to help them improve to go, without getting some kind of response. I am about to post a copy of an email I sent to who I think is the other co-founder. (The main co-founder and CEO being: Ville Vesterinen)

I am sorry to see you leave... this is the second time right? This game is becoming a literal living nightmare.

Depth - I totally agree with you. GA completely ruined this game and continue to totally ignore their customer base. "We know what's best for you, little mage. Just keep quiet and keep buying mana."

Words really cannot express how sad I am at the loss of what started out to be an AMAZING, GROUND-BREAKING app.

I guess the 'suits' took over at GA. :-(
