Not as much fun anymore (goals complaining)

How about just giving us more to do on here for when we have finished earning for the day (there is only so far you can go in one day). I have no life so would like to be able to stay on a little longer sometimes.lol.

i agree prices should be alot cheaper on evrything and the goals should be easier to reach

I know, it's ridiculous.  For a while it was fun because I could really see the goals getting closer.  But this is going to take me what, at least a month or two?  I don't see how this site can last if they don't change some things.

There are several levels that take over a month to do....the earlier goals used to be harder, you'd never see people who've played for a week be level 9

and the site has lasted well over a year in France, and almost a year here, so......

That's because the French site is far superior. I wish my French were better and that I remembered more of it (I took six years in middle and high school) because then I would definitely try it.

I'm on level 11 for over half a year now and no 1 challenges me

To keep players in a game, the game company should try to ensure that players always have a sense of progressing or exploring.

The lengthy (20 day plus) training periods are probably driving away a lot of less patient players.

I am not sure how big a company Ouza is.  It could be that they different people working on game design (what the goals are, how the challenges should work), than who work on programming. 

And it might be one group of programmers works on fixing current bugs, while another group writes the new parts of the game (i.e. writes the new bugs).

Adding and configuring clothing might be something the Admins can do without needing to turn to a programmer. 

All this said, I agree 100% that priority 1 should be bringing MissBimbo up to the level of Ma-Bimbo.  Then they will only have one set of programs to maintain.  Priority 2 should be fixing the worst and most common bugs.

my point is what are you gonna do when you get further in the game the more you level up the less easier things become. Did I ever say it was a timeline too complain my point is its people here who have been playing the game for a year and they did why cant we lol!

My mistake. I'm on edge and have consumed at least 800mg of caffeine today, I may have jumped the gun on you.
Don't take it personally, I'm going to bed, I swear.

its okay we all have are momments no hard feelings
Ive had a little too much caffeine myself today lol chocolate and coffee a girls bestfriend ha ha!

some levels when you have to train for the next career levels can take 20+ days.  Talk about boring.  So while your waiting, you can add IQ points and challenges. 

Good Luck everyone!!!

Point one: I agree completely about lengthy periods of time driving away less patient players. You should work at MissBimbo/Ouza/Ma-Bimbo (or some other game); you'd be a good worker at a company like that.

Point two: I see what you're saying, but I saw you said something like that in the "lbs or kg" board, and my response was this:
"Well, I think fixing bugs should be first priority. Otherwise, if they upgrade to Ma-Bimbo level first, we'll have even more bugs to deal with.
First bugs (especially real-money payment issues as real money and the real world are obviously more important than Bimbo Dollars and this site and if you pay real money for Bimbo Dollars and don't get your Bimbo Dollars, that's called getting jipped and that's a crime), then Ma-Bimbo quality."

I can see how your way would work, too, though.

Either way, they should be trying to do one or the other and it doesn't look like they've done too much of either recently (although maybe it's just very gradual and therefore slow).

that wouldnt be fair too all the top players who had too go threw all the traning's. for them too shorten em just because someone thinks its too long .yes the traning is long but is not realistic too have the tranings extra fast. in reallife you have too go too school for awhile too get degree's and complete coarse's

its just a game and it wouldnt be fun if the tranings where extra short

I kind of see where you're coming from here, but bringing this site up to where ma-bimbo is shouldn't cause that many new bugs, and would probably fix some of the existing ones. I think it's ridiculous how even some of the things that are on both sites seem to be running on different code. It's like they're rewriting everything almost from scratch (not completely, as evidenced by a few things like the victory message on the Mastermind game), and using that as an excuse to make it a lower priority. Some of these bugs wouldn't even exist if they'd just pulled the code intact from the French site.

I mean, the code already exists. It's not like it has to be redone all over again. My boss last summer would have had some words to say to me if I had ever written something that couldn't be moved to a different machine.

Good points there, Deltania.
Yeah, if they just use the existing code and simply translate everything, it probably should work the same.

Still, bugs such as problems with real-life money in the bank should be taken care of first so that they don't have people suing them because they never got the Bimbo Dollars they bought.

Yeah, if they don't change some things indeed. They also need to work on the bugs and bringing the site up to par with the French one and listening to more of our ideas.
And I realize it's not the moderators' faults. The mods here are really cool, and while they have quite a bit of power, they aren't the top dogs and therefore can't do everything they know we want/need such as fixing bugs, making the site like the French one, and putting good suggested ideas in action.

this site has been around for a year and ive heard older players say this site has had bugs and problems for along time now. complaning about it over and over again isent gonna help all of us are just gonna have too be patient.

and as much as I would wanna see this site get too ma-bimbo's level its gonna take along time for that too happen. cause ma bimbo is the original site so therefore things are gonna be done alot faster for that site than here

Yeah.  True, Diax.
But Deltania had a good point about how they should just take the same code from the French site and use it here (the only change would be translation to English from French, of course).

I agree things would be much easier this way hopefully things will change soon will just all have too be patient and wait. they have added new clothes people are finally able too get off level 23. slowly things seems too be picken up around here
