Why does GGE punish it's players for taking a day off? I've been playing for 3 years and when I have to be out for 1 day, (or two) I return each time to find I have been penalized for not being able to be here!
I'm sure you don't dock your employee's for their days off. Why punish us if we cant be here for 1 or 2 days? A reasonable person cannot be here 365 days a year.
Show some respect for your avid players and extend the time you allow a player to be off line.
Thanks for the opportunity to speak out...

GGE wants people to be active, so it rewards us by giving better chests for being here every day.
its not a punishment if we miss a day, its reverting back to the beginning. we get a bonus if we are here every day. GGE is not required to give us a golden chest login chest every day, they do it as a reward, meaning extra. no punishment.

When it takes 7 days to rebuild what you've lost for a single days absence... That's punishment.

again, not punishment. they reward you a little more each day for being active. if you miss a day, then you lose the bonus. its not saying you did something stupid or bad, just you did not meet the required terms to obtain the bonus, therefore you dont get it
if i get 75 daily achievement points, i dont say that i got punished since i didnt get the 80 point reward. there is a clear set of rules and goals in order to get that 80 point reward, and if i dont earn the points for it, thats not a punishment, thats me falling short

Ok! I'll concede that it may not be punishment. But think on it. It is unfair psychological warfare, waged by GGE to insure that we, (the very people who pay for the every day operation of this game) have something to loose by not being here. And this is but one of the "tools" used by GGE to wage that war.
Having said that... I think Empire is a great game. Well thought out and (admittedly) being improved upon. However, loyalty is not something you gain by pressurizing the game environment and it's parameters.
Loyalty IS rewarded in many ways within the game and having been here as long as I have, I see it pretty regularly. I've spent a LOT of money here so it's not like I'm going away over a difference of opinions.
I stick by my assertion that the practice is unfair for those, (like myself) who ARE here everyday but who, once or twice a year, simply can't be.

If I don't attack another castle lord for more than one day, I loose glory. Is that punishment?

well then for a grand total of 12-24 days a year (the days spend going back up to the top rank of chests) you lose a chance at a better prize, leaving you with over 300 days that you have the best chance for good prizes. unfair to use psych warfare? maybe... does it server a purpose? yes. game companies love it when we are on more, so they do whatever they can to make us play.Lord of Pools (US1) said:Ok!

you lose glory no matter what. 2% a day for you, .05% a day for your alliance, and 10% for all those at the merciless title. the only way to keep your glory is earn X glory, not attack 1 castle and your safetomtomtomwest (GB1) said:If I don't attack another castle lord for more than one day, I loose glory.
