In programming or any professional project development, dev teams are typically tasked with discovering the essence of a problem, in order to provide a proper and fitting solution. Clearly, this pre-examination of the root cause of the initial issue has not been performed with much due diligence. Here now, for the point of demonstration, let us take a look at how the beginnings of the complaint process began some time ago.
Let's use two fictional player player names: SolarEclypse and Deuce1313, a real-life boyfriend and girlfriend who enjoy playing online games such as Tynon. Unfortunately for the couple, their overall demeanor, bad attitudes, insulting behavior and foul language has driven them from one guild to the next, until they are finally relegated to either starting their own guild or relying on a smaller guild who is desperate for players.
Because they have found a home in a guild with other similar less-popular players who are literally social outcasts due to their erratic / snide / hateful behavior, the small guild has a serious lack of guild funds. This in turn has the direct effect of not allowing the guild to grow as quickly as it would like to, thus limiting the amount of cities the guild can develop in their guild hall. Lack of players = lack of funds = lack of cities. It's very simple math, and quite easy to understand how it happens. You treat people like crap, and you are bound to upset enough of them that the decent guilds won't have anything to do with our fictional couple, SolarEclypse and Deuce1313.
Fast-forward to Guild War time. "We can't win against these bigger guilds," they say. "They have all the bigger players and all of the cities. They just take all the new cities right away, too. We can't even get one!"
Upon further examination, SolarEclypse and Deuce1313 and most of their fellow guild members have not been as active in playing Tynon as they could have been. Additionally, few of their guild members, if any, have spent a dime on the game in order to strengthen their heroes and accounts in general. They are the typical lazy loudmouths who tend to ruin every game they participate in, both in real life and in the virtual world. They want the world to hand them out a 'freebie', rather than actually work hard for something they achieve on their own. These are the exact same type of lame losers in real life who don't have a job but do have EBT cards to buy cigarettes, booze, drugs and lingerie while the rest of us work very hard to make a living and support the idle idiots too.
SolarEclypse and Deuce1313 Decide to send in complaint forms using lots of alt accounts that they have, which of course, is a direct violation of Tynon rules, to have more than one account. SolarEclypse and Deuce1313 don't care, they did the exact same thing in Evony until they ruined the entire game for everyone. The devs receive dozens of complaint mails about 'how unfair' guild war is and decide their must be a real issue here to fix. The real problem, however, exists because the devs didn't dig deep enough into examining this actual issue, that of the lazy, non-paying, non-playing account holders who would rather cheat the system than work hard to build and achieve excellence.
Thus endeth the parable of SolarEclypse and Deuce1313, two very lazy whining complainers who have now twisted the devs around their little fingers. Compounded by dozens of other players who also have dozens more of these tiny, new, no-nothing alt accounts, and you have cropped up a plague of locusts that can easily mow down strong players who have worked hard and spent lots of money on this game.
You want to stop this nonsense immediately? Ban all alt accounts right now. Do it today. BOOM. Problem #1 solved. Your complaints decrease exponentially and these tiny alts and tiny new guilds cannot cheat their way to victory at GW.
