Imperial support

#1
Only recently noticed that Imperial support seems a little unfair in that it is dictated by build points.....seeing as it requires real money to buy rubies I think this is wrong. Some players get more than double the res per 15 rubies than I do. Should we not all get the same regardless of points? Should a new player not have the right to get as much res for his money as an established player? Seems that those who recently paid for established accounts are raking it in now with Imperial Support.... theoretically a low point account can send huge amounts of rubies to a high rank and get the res converted at a far superior rate....even after "commission" it's a win win situation.

so I ask this....can Zorg please keep a level playing field and make the amount of res per 15 rubies in Imperial Support the same for EVERYONE regardless of points....it's still the same amount of money right? :)

Totally agree with you on this even though I am one of the players that receives a higher reward for my 15 rubies..

If anything I think a player under 100,000 points should receive more...however this would lead to a reverse of what is more than likely happening now...eg...a higher ranked player would then send rubies to a n00b for exchange... so a simple fair deal would be that all players regardless of rank and build points receives the same from support..for their 15 rubies..

My suggestion is to workout an average value such as 5 million metal, 2.5 million crystal and 1 million deut... this is almost half of what I currently get fo my 15 rubies now...

Personally I would suggest just take the highest imperial support values and make them the same for everyone, so as a universe gets older and the largest metal mine goes up a level, the imperial support values increase for everyone.

but yes I agree that one way or another the imperial support should be adjusted to be a little more fair.

There is a same max limit for all.
(Massacre also has a limit on how many IS one can buy per week.)
Also, it is not based on build points. Find what it is and utilize it in your favor.

Remember,
1)The game is competitive.
2)We allow you to send credits to each other.

What more...

Oh, one more... Imperial Support is our main income. Remember this as well.

If it is the main source of income then surely same for all would benefit yourselves even more....why would some people buy rubies for such a poor return in res when they know full well some here get far more. As for utilizing it in my favour....that's not what we want......same res for rubies for all.....nice and fair...As for IS limit....interesting to know what this actually is. You mention we can send credits (rubies right?) to eachother....so when I stated above that some with poor IS can send a stack of rubies to a higher player to convert , this is now allowed??? Please clarify exactly what you mean please Zorg.

Let me make it more clear then.

First, any "dispatch" must adhere to the hourly production rule and must only be towards alliance members.

Now, if an alliance is organized enough and cares to help newcomers, then we can afford to allow you to make something out of the newcomers. It is a fair trade between "the game" and veteran players. You can help the newcomers adjust and in return you may gain some rubies. How? Simply send them your hourly production, once per day perhaps. This will greatly help them and in return they can send you rubies.... as a PRESENT, after you have HELPED them so much. It is just that easy and no one will hunt you for this.

Just remember, don't make this a trade and do not set rates. Do not ask for rubies. Do not make this a policy. Spread the rumor and the newcomers once helped will help you back. Then everyone wins.
