There have always been a variety of dirty tricks playable on players by both ends of the 'staff' that don't leave evidence to be reported. I'm not aware of anywhere else where the players must also fight the game itself and those able to alter it. Succeed at something? Those who don't like you can change the game around you to make it harder! That is discovery.
The routine system layout changes are totally useless. A fix here and there yes, but unless its absolutely necessary they shouldn't be changing the mod layout, save for adding new systems. You guys are artists that can't stop working on an art piece that ruin it by going past its best point. Its just in itch, and its causes people to pick at the threads of this place, and that only leads to unravelling. We need new systems, not to relearn areas that have been the same for years. No one wants to rediscover the same places over. It also keeps open a margin for careful manipulation. Story changes are expected but they are also often miraculous in working out for the favored factions of those who become devs. It must be a secret prerequesite to become a dev that you love Gallia and agree to protect it.
Its no conspiracy theory that staff on either side have worked secretly against players when they knew they could get away with it, and will deny deny deny all the way through even still. Their argument is always 'how dare player x expect us to not do this or that'. And then they wonder why this place has problems or why population only ever shrank. So it seems no one wants to take responsibility because it might indeed be evidence to suggest she's right...? Doesn't sound so far fetched to me.
@Karlotta this place is not the same mod or group anymore. It doesn't seem like anything is ever going to change here in the other direction, and you can't argue with these guys, they already know everything! My advice to everyone frustrated is to just give them what they want, abandon your bases, lesson your involvement. The majority of the people here now are either faction heads, admins or people with yellow names. Its a devs mod now, they are the ones actually playing the game, the rest of us are only good to them as cannon fodder. Its just a fact, devs remake the game as they like it, and favor who they do. Is it fair? Not at all, but they likely think so. The inner party gets its privileges, the outer party members get reduced rations. The doublethink is 'its better' like its doubleplusgood! In the end, because of all of that, we've seen this place's best years already, and without real change its basically over here except for stragglers.
