I logged in tonight to find that my enterprise was expiring. Not knowing that this could happen, I have bought trillions in game money from the direct marketing into it to build it up since it wasn't doing that well. I used it to start companies so my kingdom could make it to level 5 one day. Imagine my unpleasant surprise. Well, lukcily I had 30 gold coins, but I sure didn't want to spend them. How can I get the money I've invested into that enterprise back so I can put them into my country? And why in the world would anyone buy a enterprise if they are going to expire every month? |

You get one entity, either an empire or an enterprise for 'free' and on one world, after that you have to pay GC each month.
Basically, you should be able to earn the GC you need from your enterprise to keep it ticking over.
If you want easy GC, set yourself up on LU where the world runs quicker. Quicker game time equals more profits per month which in turn gives you more GC. |

Enterprises are not as profitable as they once were but you can still turn a modest profit. |
| Stuart T (Golden Rainbow) | Thursday, October 13, 2011 - 05:20 am
Speaking of profit Zentrino - invaded a C3. Its got about 27T of assets lol |

And the higher you in WL you go, the more you will get from it. |
| Stuart T (Golden Rainbow) | Thursday, October 13, 2011 - 05:48 am
I got my next target sussed already. Will invade that one tomorrow. Its corps are worth 25T alone lol |

Stuart, remember me, CraftyCockney from the East End of London?
Anyways dude, check the spins of the worlds nowadays, they are all 6 months a day I believe except WG which is still 4 ? |
| Andy (Kebir Blue) | Thursday, October 13, 2011 - 12:59 pm
WG and GR are at 4 GM/Day
KB FB and LU are at 6 GM/Day |

There was no mention of enterprises costing anything if you had a country, and there sure as hell wasn't any word of them expiring.
I have poured a lot of money into my enterprise. How can I get it back out and back into my country? Or is it just lost? This entire affair has really soured me to this game. |
| David Walker (Little Upsilon) | Thursday, October 13, 2011 - 05:34 pm
I'm sure I remember word of this when I recently signed up again. It would certainly make it clear when you register your second entitiy. |
| Sunny (Kebir Blue) | Thursday, October 13, 2011 - 05:42 pm
It's lost unless you spend some money on the game.
Sad, but true. |
| ZentrinoRisen (Little Upsilon) | Friday, October 14, 2011 - 05:01 am
I am almost certain a blue screen pops up and tells you it costs 30 GC's to register and keep it every month. |
| RagingPencil (White Giant) | Sunday, October 16, 2011 - 08:45 am
It does. Those damn scary blue screens. |

Unfortunately you can make the dialogs informing of this fact as big and and brightly coloured as you like but some people will still never read anything... |

Its waaaaaay to expensive to maintain an enterprise- even the reward of getting 9 months membership won't cover it, which is why players need to build a profitable empire to buy GCs. |
| Appreciated_Customer | Saturday, October 22, 2011 - 01:25 am
Maybe I'm missing something but my enterprises are fueling my entire account for quite some time now...
But that's just me.
They are Expensive to start, but once you get them going... man they sure are worth the start-up costs and waaay less time consuming than these rotten countries |

Hey Wendy I just want to remind you what Andy said here, it was thanks to me why Fearless blue is running at 6 months a day on this game now, as it was MY idea, it was on the vote poll a long while back, number 76 on the poll results page, so because of me the gamemasters decided to alter this and changed it from 4 months to 6 months, so maybe you can start to calling me nOOb now? |
| Appreciated_Customer | Saturday, October 22, 2011 - 05:24 am
Ok n00b, but only if you insist. And if you really think that silly poll had anything to do with that or any other change, you really live up to the name. |
| Appreciated_Customer | Saturday, October 22, 2011 - 05:25 am
James, don't take anything personally, it can prove rather counter-productive. Above all else, despite your deficiencies I'll always love you. As a mother to a child, my son ;) |

As a mother to a child
How the way you've put that, it sounds like you're a single, unmarried mother living off state benefits. I know a few personally who do exactly that, a symbol of much of todays broken society and the cause of much of the riots we had here back in August this year.
Anyway that poll definitely helped pushed it through because it was introduced a few days later, it's like if I fell off a cliff, others would fall off a cliff too, do you get what I mean? Lol |
| David Walker (Little Upsilon) | Saturday, October 22, 2011 - 03:26 pm
Unmarried mothers living off state benefits is not itself a bad situation and it should not be used an derogatory term of abuse.
Benefits provides a support net and stability where otherwise none is often available. This gives the baasis for people to go on to do better even if it the successive generations that do.
There is aslways a minority in every kind of group that can spoil it for the many.
Benefits has also been used to subdue crime and disorder very effectively and cheaper than allowing the crimes to take place and then put poeople in prison.
Many people have many different situations and live in many different environments.
Judge each case on its respective facts. The peddling of the perception of a broken society is what help causes a continuation of social problems and disenfranchisement.
I would welcome a retraction. |

Poor James. Just fails to get a clue. If you would be quiet for long enough to ask a legitimate question....
James, I'm married mother of 3 children. I don't see how any of this relates to your incompetence n00b(your suggestion)
I just wish you would get a clue and stop yapping so much.
Now if I were an intelligent woman, and I am, I would bet, you're some hollow n00b who doesn't know when to be quiet and getting the benefits of a calm gaming community. When I started this game.
People like you and I would be quickly dealt with. I survived. You... I doubt would have. You would have recycled yourself to an all econ account and learned to mind your manners.
Now James I know you are kinda anxious. To fight, learn, I dunno. But I will say this. When trying to bait someone into a fight with you, you'll need to be a bit more clever to disguise your bait(ing) in order to get a bite.
I have not the time or the want to break another mouse on this game. Does the saying, "Sleep with da fishes" mean anything to you?
I'm getting bored, My son. |

"Sleep with da fishes", that is sick. If you look up the meaning of it. You lady, watch you're manners. |

Says who? |
