    excellent ideas. Especially raising the cap on dilithium from 224. There is a huge barrier to entry that beginners need to overcome that should be addressed


    As for the Wall-o-Dilithium 3rd party "offers":
    At best it screams "tacky" & "desperate"; it's extremely poor optics for TP.
    At worst it's an invasion of privacy for a system -designed- to gather your info but not pay out because you only meet 99% of the required 100% criteria. Support is going to get flooded with tickets both for the system operating as intended (kicking players out after gathering personal info but that person not meeting 100% of the requirements) as well as the system being broken (actual completed offers that never end up paying out the dilithium).

    The wall is a a BAD, BAD idea, and makes TP look minor-league and amatuerish

    Cap on chronitons, not dilithium.

    Yeah, the intention of my post was to give TP a clue about other avenues to improve revenue. Really more of a response to the offer wall, not intended to be a “offer wall feedback” thread. It was retitled though, so, yeah.

    I thought you raised several important and debatable points in your Opening Post, so thank you for launching this discussion. I will endeavor to keep my comments on-track in the future, and I apologize if I disrailed your thread. 🖖

    I suspect the derailing was caused by Shan renaming the thread to something completely different to what it was set up to achieve. Hopefully you will see this comment before I am censored.

    Oh, and I will never use even ad-warp again after this. I spend lots of money on this game directly. Neither WRG or TP need my paltry pennies from ads. I still wish there was a button or preference setting that would allow me to "opt out".
    I want to become a Dilionaire...
  • Well, that certainly explains a lot. And also means they're not going to change a damned thing regardless of how much we complain.

    We can use their address on those predatory surveys and file enough criminal and civil complains to make the money not worth it.

  • That's a bad thing about this. They're a marketing company, not a game company, and they have no long-standing tied to this community. There's absolutely nothing in this for them other than money. When they signed on, the game was probably looking like a good deal - maybe it needed a boost financially, or with the right team behind it it could break the bank, or whatever it was that sold them on it. I doubt they bought it because they're Trekkies who spend all their spare time playing video games and wanted to make this better just on that.

    So if we make it extremely painful for them, what reason do they have to stay in? We're proving we're going to fight them tooth and nail on an idea they may very well think is a good one, because some other game does an offer wall, and *they're* raking it in, and not in any court battles or whatever.aybe it'd be cheaper for them to shut it down than worry about a lawsuit every time they try something different. That I'm aware of, they have no legal obligation to keep the game up and running. I'm sure they spent a good chunk of change buying the rights, but you also don't spend good money after bad.
