New Relationship System Creates Reward System for Griefers

by Alphaville Herald on 15/04/04 at 7:04 pm

Believe it or not, EA/Maxis has topped itself on the brain-dead-o-meter. In the new relationship system they rank the top 100 sims in various categories including “most infamous” and “meanest”. Well, anyone who has read John Suler’s work on griefers will know what will happen. There will be a contest among griefers/scammers to see how can reach the top of the list. Just in case you are keeping score at home, here are the top griefers as of today (3-5 are various incarnations of Evangeline):

1. Janette
2. Viva T
3. Evangeline
4. Eve
5. Voleur
6. Mrs. President Bradley

    Yeah thosec were thedays scrambled… back then i hit my 1st million the “players way”, the hard way.. My sim never made that list because the next daythey took that out of the system LOL..

    YES EA has hewlped sellers by making trades sooooo much easier and faster and when they update the tweaks to the -payout penalties because those at stratics are complaining and want them lowered that too will help sellers..

    There’s no need to petition bringing back “tagging”… TSO HAS just made it FAR EASIER with the new friendship thing…

    It’s EASY just go up to someone and try a Mean action… If they accept it then you get unfriendly points, but on the other hand if they don’t accept it you STILL get unfriendsly points.. So now EA/Maxis has “fumbled the ball” again, TY Uri I think you said that? LOL..

    So now you have it that they HAVE made it MUCH easier to give someone red tags/points now..

    Great job maxis you monkeys really do good work… I’m certainly glad you aren’t in the nuclear warhead business ;-p LMAO
