Remove reputation ribbons from games

I think the reputation ribbon rewards need to be removed from games. I liked and enjoyed the Coop Challenge when it was about hard work as a group. With the addition of ribbons as rewards for the Japanese memory game it has gone too far about an individual spending money to buy ribbons.

    Agreed. The reputation ribbons need to be removed from the Wheel as well. Too many players are simply spinning for pts instead of playing missions. But of course that would mean less money for GG. There are too many ways to buy your way to the top, making it vastly unfair for all of the others.

    That's not going to happen, sorry.  How do you think GGS keeps their servers running. It is intentional to "sell" ribbons.  I am certain GGS has NO intention of removing them and continue to brain-storm ways of selling more ribbons, just like they have been added to the Shinkei-Suijaku School game.  And I am certain they will think of more ways.   What you should be asking is if GGS can come up with at least one competition event with no possible way to buy points; you may have a little bit better luck there.  But then again, I am thinking the HWE does not "sell" any points.

    And do not forget that we do get tokens and gold for free from time to time.

    BigFarm is business, it costs real money to keep it up and running so ofc it is only right that there is a cost for us players. How much we buy is up to us and by our choice we spend the gold/tokens we buy or get for free.

    And tell me, how fair is it to envy those who do spend money buying gold? Without them buying the game would come to a halt .... no more BigFarm. So I guess we should say thank you to those who buy gold and stop envying their advantage, but chalk it down to the fact that if they had´t then we would´t have this game to enjoy. And we do enjoy it, right?

    I have played several online games and tbh this is the first one where the developers actually listen to the players. Not only that, but go out and ask for the players opinion and actually make changes accordingly. I am rather impressed by GGS tbh. 

    My thoughts anyway :wink:

    The developers do not always listen and they do not always make appropriate changes (such as a billion pigs for the asia event).  They do try to promote gold any way possible.  This I understand 100%. They have no other real options.  But I do believe they do the best they can.  They do give in-game gold for free, they also offer so many other resources, such as seaweed ferts & feeds which is just as instant as gold.  Saving and using the seaweed items strategically can be very beneficial.  They also offer WOF tokens and FUKU coins (well they used to offer the FUKU coins, they seem to have cut that off).  They do give players that cannot afford gold a chance.  It is not mandatory to buy gold, it is an option and they do try to be somewhat fair considering their server costs.  I try to be as understanding as possible about their promotion of gold except for when I get a popup in the middle of my screen selling stuff for gold while I am in the middle of farming and often almost accidentally click on it.

    Summer (SKN1)   Well said.  I'm grateful to those who buy and spend gold because they're the folks who pay the bills at GGS so that I and millions of others can play for free. :)  You can say what you want about the unfairness of the competitions, but the fact is that they're not really "competitions" in the literal sense. A competition is when at least 2 persons strive for a goal that cannot be shared, with both having a chance of reaching the goal. This isn't possible in the game when a gold buyer is competing against someone without gold. Ask yourself this question: Would you play poker with somebody who could just buy a better hand than you? Probably not. ;)  That's the reason I don't take any of the so-called "competitions" seriously. B)
