Merge 2025 - ORG community




  • Dear GO, I can see you haven't gone through this thread thoroughly to grasp what is the subject but since we are not toxic and very kind instead, I will gladly enlighten you;


    - Noone here asks for a new universe's spec's that will be aired in blabla days. In fact, noone here would like to see a new universe at all.

    - Our staff -which includes you at the moment but not limited to you or chaosk, yohdh etc.- has been telling us there could only be two x10 economy universe's in a community.

    - Recently we discovered that .de community staff decided to make 4 of their universe's -and no, they did not wait for new servers, they changed spec's of old one's- boosted to x10 economy.

    - We asked why they were telling us random lies for years when we asked for poll's and increase of our universe's to x10 economy

    - yohdh and chaosk said they don't want to make us feel we were left behind and it's said "this will be evaluated".



    Now question is, how does this evalulation process gets carried on? One thought our admins/coma would contact GF and ask for a permission in case they can go with x10 economy servers for old one's. Once they say yes, our lovely admins here can notify us and tell how, when and for which universe's these specific poll's can be asked for in case they pass 70% vote's and we get our universe's upgraded as wel..

    Besides, chaosk had suggested it can't be changed now since it'll affect merger. Well merger is finished, right?



    Now if you have any answers which I highly doubt you do please reply on these specific matters. If not then please stop commenting and trying to look like a teddy bear to certain individuals you are trying to make an impression on.



    Thanks in advance!

  • What a fail of a reply :headbanging:


    People asked multiple times before merge started to happen, months before about any information regarding it. Your entire team had nothing to say and then you suddenly hit the merge button and open discussion thread in which you all proceed to say "its too late now to implament anything from this discussion" and then you come here making a comment how the playerbase should be PATIENT and hope for better merge next time?? LMAO!


    Why in the hell did you even bother giving this stupid reply? :rofl:



  • Maybe a couple million DM every few months is not enough. Maybe one wants more or it's not about DM at all and one wants recognition, respect. Though it's a failed attempt at best and he is expecting respect from the wrong party... He could have gotten way more respect if he had listened to the community he volunteered to offer his services for, if it was really volunteering and community work ofcourse. :wink3:

  • First of all I wonder: why do you call me GO? I wrote immediately at the beginning that I was writing as any player.

    A GO, in any case, does not take part in the discussions which you have kindly summarized for me. Therefore I am extraneous to the entire internal process and I know what is happening regarding this topic at the same moment as you do.

    Can you therefore avoid treating me as a staff member? I'm a player like you

    In my own small way I asked myself:
    why did this happen in the German community?
    here on the org will we have the same conditions to be able to apply the same rules?

    I have read that you have asked the questions and I, like you, am waiting for the answers

    Years of falsehood?

    I must have missed something, I don't follow the German community.... but has it been years since the foreign communities had more than two 10x universes?

    Or are we talking about things that happened less than a month ago?

    I don't know your job and your position. My position is that I am not the absolute boss and I am required to do what I am allowed to do.

    The merger is over yes. What if they put the 10x in a server where you aren't?

    Since the merger is over.... wouldn't you yell that they were disloyal, because if you had known, would you have managed your merger differently?

    So for fairness, should there only be 10x universes?

    Then, continuing to read, I thought, at a certain point: since I love resting my elbow in the central tunnel when I make long journeys..... why didn't the Mercedes CEO explain to me why he approved such a short armrest, despite my negative feedback?

    Can’t we simply wait for them to give us an answer, without mocking anyone?


    We remain at your disposal and wish you a pleasant gaming experience


    Let's think about it
  • Can I have a little bit of what you're using? You brain seems fried and I want it

  • First of all I wonder: why do you call me GO? I wrote immediately at the beginning that I was writing as any player.

    As a player, you should see see that other coms are getting to do things that we are not permitted to do. As a player you should see that we are being told its not possible for xyz reason and thing's dont seem fair. As a player, if you look at this situation and don't wonder why things aren't adding up, then you are not a player at all and its impossible to separate yourself as an SGO and player.


    I see in your second post you apparently seem to agree? yet your first post only defended GF and all the work they have to do letting other coms change their settings make more money off another server opening no one asked for instead of retaining current players. But hey, at least we got an artifact event/ shop that seems to have more bugs than a ratted out trailer in Fairhope Alabama.


    Its the GA's job to advocate for the players they represent, not make excuses for GF. At some point (just guessing here) around December 20th, 2023 spines were lost and it no longer felt like the team had our back. They have proven time and time and time and time and time again that they do not, no matter what you try to say to defend them... because as players we can only see what we can see, which is allbeit less than you in most situations. Don't give us some BS that you don't know things. We get it, but you can't tell us what you do know in situations where you do know something so the only thing we can do is assume you know everything. I will say Yohdh seems pretty good though. Little Devil has literally never engaged with the com they represent here (yes I checked) and our friendly ghost friend, well he would make an excellent dog. Sit. Stay. Roll over. Beg.

    The point is... confidence is at an all time low with the Admin team. At no point would they, or should they announce they have rolled over and allowed GF to take advantage of us/ neglected us without a proper fight... but optics are optics and lack of communication at all suggest they are in cahoots. A spade is a spade after all. As a player you should be questioning those things but you can't and that's ok.


    Also I haven't seen it mentioned here, but ill mention .us will be holding votes in about a week in a half and all newly merged servers are requesting x10 eco. The GA, as incompetent they are were in communication about server changes from the start and never had to make some BS excuses about not being able to change server settings. Good luck defending that one. Ive not even bothered to check any other com but im willing to take a bet that other coms got different responses too.

  • There is more to it than that some times no action or feed back can mean a GA don't want to be dishonest with the community.

    Or as you said could care less.


    But I think we all can agree on the fact as players more open answers and clarity are needed.

    And our community not be used as the live alpha test bed community for do less make them pay more standards we have been subject too for far to long.


    Thing is we have to look at the community also.

    many jump on new servers to try to be in the top group of players while other join to continue to dominate servers.

    that's fine and well dandy

    And gives no reason for GF to change that habit

    for our sake as players

    we as players should take three years and not join any new servers and for 18 months not spend one dime.

    Untill we get heard and het the positive constructive changes we have pointed out till we are done talking about it and just have frustration left.


  • As much as I agree .org should also be allowed more x10 unis, let's not get ahead of ourselves and just assume all communities get better treatment than .org.

    In .dk we've been waiting for over a month for a proper response here - Forslag/Diskussion: Ser ændring Polaris.DK


    And even longer since we asked in the discord server. And we can't even get out of that community. At least you have several decent universes. Our merge targets were utter shit in our merge

  • Think/say what you will about the admins... They do really care. However, please keep in mind, no matter their intentions, GameForge ultimately will do what they want and leave the volunteer staff to take the blame and pick up the pieces.


    No matter how much they advocate for the players, the company makes the final decisions.🤷‍♀️



  • As much as I agree .org should also be allowed more x10 unis, let's not get ahead of ourselves and just assume all communities get better treatment than .org.

    So I was just informed ogame.si recently changed their settings too.


    This makes .us, .de and .si able to change settings, but we are told we can't because of laziness time constraints. Im not assuming anything, im merely pointing out facts. I don't give a flip about uni settings personally but saying something can't be done while simultaneously allowing it to be done elsewhere is preposterous.


    Sagacious I think we are painfully aware of the machine GF is - Myself more so than most having gone toe to toe with them before as an admin and nearly walking away dealing with shitty COMAs. Lack of communication and engagement on the GA's behalf contributes heavily with partial blame being placed on the admin team and I highlighted this in my last post. You seriously can't defend someone who has never engaged with the players (Little Devil) or someone who only post ominous words whilst not actually answering specific questions asked. Im happy Cas cares.... I would hope he does, however he shows it in funny ways that tells the players he does actually care and there is only he has the power to change that perspective. Truly, all trolling aside I hope he considers engaging more. People will insult troll, not like what he has to say sure (hell ill probably be one of them) but damn it at least we can say hes tried, also same can be said for the devil person.


    Admins like Master Yoda, Blankie, Thundersheep, Kamil, Borg, Queen Leo, Pink Floyd, Valent and im certain Cassandra has at some point or another (just to name a few) have all publicly fallen on their sword or at least attempted to by sticking their neck out and were always at the forefront offering transparency. This has never happened here under our current Admin Regime. Stopping transparency is a choice that they chose - which tells the players they care more about their position then the com. Lack of communication is a choice the admin team has made themselves. That can not be blamed on GF. If GF tells you to F off, then tell us that lol. At least our anger can be placed in the right place. I love a good Casper trolling, but at least let me do it properly for things that actually involve him jeeze.

  • Gameforge: consistently inconsistent since 2005:beer:

    There were good times and bad times depending on the COMA and Teamlers involved.

    The current COMA is horrible. And there is a disconnect and poor communication between what the COMA says and the Teamlers (GO/SGO/GA) get from the COMA and with how they're interpreting the rules and enforcing them. And part of that is going to be from having different rules in different communities that aren't standardized and having teamlers that work across multiple communities who don't realize the rules are different from one community to another. Or the COMAs and GAs interpret the rules/T&C differently due to how they're translated, poor wording, subjective/vague wording, literacy level, grammar/punctuation issues, etc.

    Kewlness was the best GA ever, hands down. Those were the good years and the COMA then actually listened to him and they both engaged with the community, and had a good grasp of the players and politics/drama in each individual uni. The current crop could care less about the community here so they can't connect the dots or see when 1+1 = 2 in the tickets.

    It is very clear since at least the officers in 2007 they (gameforge) see their players as marks, chumps, and losers. They even bragged when people were furious after the officers they bought beer with the money from it. The clean their soles on you and you continue to pay them.

  • what was the thought process behind closing an active miner universe like yin and giving us horrible options to merge into? we had two merge and die unis and then lacarta a minning server with horrible mining settings plus no galaxy space for anyone to place their mining planets that they paid alot of money to get slot 8s in in old universe. like whoopty do we got free relocates and nowhere to relocate too. , like are you guys just tired of running this game and just trying to get us all to quit or something?


    why have a mining universe with no galaxy space as a destination? why not have yin as a destination? it had more galaxies. it had really good miner setting and it had a great community of active players,. instead we all got screwed and for what? if i messed up at my job this badly i would be fired like what the hell man

  • I had a major issue with my account in Keid. GA and GameForge are not helping with just one player to get back on track. (its a very long story, but the conclussion is corruption)


    We have absolute zero to do with the game. GameForge wants to make the last profit out of ogame. If u take a look on the company results it seems like a good idea NOT TO LISTEN TO PLAYERS!


    About my issues the highest (GA - COMA) I have tried to come in contact with GameForge about 10-20 times. They will not tell me anything about how to complain or just ask general quenstion. They just say read the Terms and conditions, but not where to look or anything.


    I will say with 100% that the game is corrupt and smells also a bit corrupt when the players/people have zero to say and If they want to say anything just get the message "Read Terms and conditions".


    LEAVE OGAME NOW! - Go get in fitness, go be social, go learn making the new dish u been thinking about and leave account vmode and money on ur bank account.

    DO U LIKE TO GET SCAM LIKE ME?

  • I don't know what you are talking about, I play for free. :lol:

  • One german guy spent 20k euro on one account. I think they dont care about u/us and care about him! XD <333 much love

  • luckily, I don't care about them either.

  • Many spent much more. I personally knew one who spent more than 30K € before quitting.
