here's a thought on how to fix our HSX unhappiness... i'll throw it out there... be back in a few hours to discuss...why dont we

Posted by i'm not Undead yet ! (aka pacrat) Oct 23 '08, 06:59

email dmac or someone else working there and basically say 'hey, why dont you just set up a separate hsx spot thats set up the old way for those of us who dont give a crap about networking, schmoozing, etc and let us enjoy the game we like it instead of forcing this networking pap on us?'

i'd be willing to not have access to my port for another week or so if it meant going back to the way i'd prefer to play the game....

discuss :)

i'll be back to throw in a few more cents' worth of my thoughts on it after classes

Responses:

Because D.Mac is not the person who has the power to make that happen. I'm certain he's already gotten his fair share of complaint emails - Mr. Havens Oct 23, 07:27 8
- I have one: KILL THE FUCKING CONSULTANTS! - Marlowe Oct 23, 07:33 2
  - I think I blame HSX management more. Consukltants do what they're told and they were told "Make HSX into a social networking site" - Roger More Oct 23, 07:44 1
    - Maybe.. But killing them would set an example to the world... - Marlowe Oct 23, 07:54
- I'm just wondering then, if they're now open to these complaints...why weren't they in the damned Beta? - Will Hunting Oct 23, 07:30 4
  - I say again: you make your Beta useless if you have such glaring mistakes that people can't even explore the nitpicky stuff. -- nm - TFox Oct 23, 07:44 1
    - Or, worded another way: doesn't the word "Beta" imply there was an Alpha test? - TFox Oct 23, 07:44
  - Because now it's HSX staff responding. Before it was HSX management and consultants. -- nm - Roger More Oct 23, 07:38
  - I don't think my porfolio looked like that in beta. But, I only had a few stocks so the display was probably different. -- nm - Amy Oct 23, 07:32
I'd pay for the old version--not a lot, but money nonetheless. -- nm - rayray80 Oct 23, 07:26
If they shut down TT, no way will they go for that. -- nm - Spawn Oct 23, 07:16
If they fix the game play, it's the same concept. As it is, the schmoozing and all is a huge add-on to a now broken game. - Will Hunting Oct 23, 07:10 11
- Not the posting and whatnot for money.. - Marlowe Oct 23, 07:17 10
  - Or limit it to a weekly max. There was free money before, and still can be, but it shouldn't be unlimited. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 23, 07:23 7
    - D. Mac is doing this. $100K per day max, with a $50K limit on posting -- nm - Roger More Oct 23, 07:45 3
      - Where does it say this? That is a good first step. -- nm - TFox Oct 23, 07:47 2
        
        Somewhere on the Support boards. I'll try and find it, but it's a nightmare finding anything in the Community section -- nm - Roger More Oct 23, 07:51 1
        
        Don't stress it. I asked specifically b/c I didn't feel like looking either. - TFox Oct 23, 07:52
    - Yes, there was.. One could make *maybe* H$ 200k a week.. - Marlowe Oct 23, 07:29 2
      - That's what I'm saying. Keep it, but say you can't get more than $50,000 a week from it or something. - Cuzzin Todd Oct 23, 07:30 1
        
        Get the 50k on your first post of the day. Otherwise, there will still be 50 spam posts from everyone wanting the schmooze. -- nm - CovingtonCat Oct 23, 07:47
  - Well, I got that in the broken part of the game. - Will Hunting Oct 23, 07:21 1
    - True.. I misread.. Or under-read.. - Marlowe Oct 23, 07:26
having two systems side by side i perhaps not the intention Cantor has? -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Oct 23, 07:04
THey can add-on all the other crap they want to, I can ignore it, but just get the game functionality back. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 23, 07:04 3
- As far as they take away the posting-craping-schmozielinging for H$.. (NM) - Marlowe Oct 23, 07:11
- agreed -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 23, 07:06
- yes and more performance please!!! -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Oct 23, 07:04
not going to happen. I still think we could put one together in a few weeks ourselves. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 23, 07:01
