There isnt a thread about the bot banning so ill put my comment here

I'm pleased bot users are getting banned but its pretty dumb to give them any warning / second chance in first place, let alone publicise such a system

You've basically told everyone they get to use bots until they get caught and they can stay on the game as long as they dont get caught again.

Ive never used em but starting to feel tempted seeing as you get multiple chances
Its a start if nothing else

Carried out years later than it should have been and cost GGS thousands in lost revenue from players who have left the game in disgust

Be interesting to see if there is any shake up in the top alliances after this ;-)
just 24 players so i think not
I assume the "permanent ban" is the 7,000 day bird we`re seeing people go into.

1. You guys planned for the return of the Royal Capital in your Q4 announcement, but that was the last we heard of it.

2. This private RV thing isn't a great idea.  I'm afraid this will create more defense walls that are basically invincible.

3. Bot-users shouldn't have multiple chances, thx for perma-bans.

4. Please no more "new" events.  Please keep improving the lag thats in-game.

With 10 major events total you do have a good point and I agree that at this point no more events are needed. For example Berimond, Monthly, Shapeshifters, Alliance Tournament, Storm, Outer Realms, Royal Capital, and those other three side quests that show up sometimes are a ton of major events in the game. Plus, their is also Kingdom's League coming up in January, an event for collecting skins and a few decorations, nobility contests, and server vs. server in the main empire as well in addition to invasions.

boring outer realm
at least start an event with it:(

[5016989] PJH_ (GB1) [GB1] :: Dec. 16, 2018, 9:04 a.m.
No tabs for Khan shops in this mornings event :(

 B) and back by 20 past the hour.... nothing to see here, move on

oh yes, village tokens all present and correct - wasn't expecting the price/availability differentiation but do both stack the same in currency overview so don't think any difference :)

Can someone explain to me this fascenation with perminant look items that i cant add gems too.

I have played the game for a very long time and have always played events to get stuff that will strengthen my castles or commanders.  In fact thats the very essance of the game.  

Why on earth would I play an event where the primary reward is an item that actually weakens my castle / commander.

By Weaker, I mean If for example I get attacked and have I permiant look ltem on my castle I have to remove the look item, then i have to put in its place  a proper look item with a gem on it.  Which if its a close range hit is going to seriously effect my ability to defend properly.  Surely I am in a much better position if I dont have a look item on at all so if i get attacked and need to switch I can do it quickly and easily.

I dont get it, I dont want to buy one, and i dont want to win one, I am certainly not going to play an event thats primary reward is one.   

Give me something that actually increases the effectivness of some part of my game and I am on board.  

If I wanted a game where you can spend to make your castle look shinier, I would play a game with decent graphics.

Maybe its just me but I am not gonna start buying things that at best make life a lot more difficult for myself, and at worst make me weaker!!!!!

im not sure if there is a thread for this new outer realms nonsense. This idea had so much potential. For a longtime I have thought what an idea it would be to have like a clash of the servers, it would take away largely the bad blood on pretty much all the servers and give guys something else to concentrate on, I went in there to find its another storm. Are ggs not happy with the amount people spend on building 7 castles?? complete scam these events even more so when you see the rewards. So why after all this money that has been made on this game do gge feel the need to make another event purely ruby based to get anything out of it, what would have been wrong with using our main castles and have an event with the other servers which I still believe is an amazing idea instead of having to start from scratch with 21 days on the event, which I assume will be done again and again. I for one will not be doing this event, its a complete con. Really disappointed with the lack of vision on what could be the best idea gge has come up with

The event for getting just permanent look items and only a few decorations I think is more of a side quest that is optional like Storm Islands, Blade Coat, Underworld, and Thorn King. When I come to think about it if you value look items that require gems so much then do events like Underworld and Thorn King instead of the one that gives only permanent look items and only a few decorations. I think that once someone gets enough points for the first decoration and perhaps also the permanent look item for the army the rest beyond that is not really needed. Considering the fact you can get up to 21 commanders and a lot fewer cast I think that it may make more sense to get a permanent look item for the military than it is for cast. Also, if the permanent look items included a gem slot would that not make the "temporary" look items useless for the most part from equipment trader and from other events? That is another problem with being able to equip gems on permanent look items.

@BM Fujiwara any news as to weather the private rv's cont towards achievemnets ?

Or any news on the event schedules re multiple Khan events and no Sams  ! ?
Thanks for poking me, I'm still waiting responses on a number of issues (including the event schedule and the lack of the Yoshiro comm)... however, I do have confirmation that private RVs should count towards achievements
12/20/18 ..still no Yoshiro comm
