we are still growing! sokker wont die

Hard to say. The problem is that the removing of inactive users is manual. So if admins do not have time for that for a while we could grow a lot. And then on one day they do it al, we drop thousends of users at once ;)

Ha! ... the new signups will never login again when they see match delay

+1

they need to decrease the match waiting time or even have in match avertisement because a new user will never think it right to wait for something that long in a game they are not seasoned in yet sokker. needs to remember there are other Management games out there

Depends on what they are used to. If they never played Sokker without the match delay, the match delay is normal. This change is mostly annoying for those who played it without the match delay and now have to get used to this new situation.

I do not think so. If someone comes here and see this he must think the dev is an idiot.
Why would anyone who isn't committed to the game stay after seeing this nonsense. I know I will not try to get my friends interested anymore.

indeed,but this means that you do not care about your loyal customers.They are many loyals since the begining of this game and if you don't care about them your fucked up....your statement feels more like a corporate thinking....you know..and you are not Coca Cola or Microsoft,you are a small business,just try to be more close to your customers!
these are my thoughts




it feels like you want to dodge reality!!!!!!

I don't think a delay is a problem, but the delay is to long at the moment. Look at Youtube for example, they also use delay before videos to make money from ads.

Would be better to use the same as Youtube, the possibility to skip the ad after some time.

Yup and a button where we can click and watch voluntary... once in a while I would do that. No problem.

But that should be also not longer than 30 to 60 seconds.

Small or large businesses, all need money to continue to exist, improve the site to stay competative, etc.

There comes a time Sokker needs to stop being someone's hobby and start becoming more like a serious business. I invest money in this game by bying Plus and expect things in return, for example no bugs anymore and more implementations.

And ofcourse the DEVs have to make sure to piss of loyal users as less as possible, but that's not always possible. BTW, what you call customers are not customers but users, Plus managers are the customers, they pay for the game. Ofcourse you need non-Plus managers in this game, but they should not expect to get the same as paying managers, they don't pay the bills of the DEVs for running this game.
