Honest message to Bishop / UTO Developers
I know you don't like me. That's my style and I've chosed it. I do not ask you to like me.
I ask you to "like" your creation - Utopia game, respect it and get it bigger. It is in your own advantages. I am sad to see 3600 players left and I believe Utopia can have much much more than 3600 players. At least 10,000 should be a good start.
Keep closing your eyes to cheating and abuses... and you will destroy this game.
You've lost 400 players from last age >>> following the server survey. You've won maybe 100-200 returning players.
Gamers INC is clearly farming and you can see on your own, with proofs. Chosing not to delete them, will affect us all... the remaining 3600 players.
It's not about Gamers INC, there are at least two other kingdoms doing that. I won't point the finger cause you know very well who they are. You can see everything.
I've got back and I've got some hate upon me. It's okay, I can deal with that. But again: we earn our EOWCF the hard way and I am so damn proud of that!
Keep closing your eyes and you'll destroy this game.
I ain't saying I'm quiting because I won't. I will play at least two ages hoping to archieve a triple crown... Dunno if that will happpen, but what I know is that I will do my best by "fair ways".
And against all odds.

I can't speak in the name of the other 3600 players, but I speak in my own name:
I feel disgusted of such things happening, when Utopia is so easy to play nowadays - with sitting option and invite option and the mechanics improved a lot. I feel all my effort to be an example is in vain.
It matters not. You are the boss. You decide what's wrong and what's right.
I hope you will take the right decision, without any remorse and second thought. Don't be afraid of losing 1 or 50 players. You will get 5 times more players back.

@ Bishop: you claimed that farm wars are "not illegal" as long as there is no multi/proxy involved. You might be right and "farm wars" can happen "the other way. Close your eyes and here is what will happen (again, from my own point of view):
Personally I will play 2 ages until I get my triple crown - If I will ever get it. After that I'll quit cause no more motivation for me. Because it will be the same farming ****s and dishonest competition.
Improve the competition in Utopia by stopping these "not illegal farm wars" and you will earn more back in long term. It's not about me, I hope you understood my point. However, even if I choose to stay due to stronger competition.... that is still a small gain for Utopia, that is one more competitive kingdom: but it is better than nothing, right?. And I will stay and enjoy this game as long as there is competition left.
