Quite simple reasons.....
Quite stupid reasons actually. You clearly have no leadership skills and I'd certainly consider you to be selfish in your approach to this game. Please allow me to shred your post
First if you do not have premium I do not care what anyone says, when they come under attack now (2014, not 2009) you cannot defend properly, if you have thousands of incomings it's simply too slow and you will lose regardless how good at defending you are, my previous experience supports this rather well if not entirely. and an issue i didn't highlight but should have, the majority of people can afford premium, alot of the people that don't have it can, they choose not to buy it as there not that bothered about the advantages, as they don't really put any effort into the game, hence why i would never recruit them. for the very few players now that can't get access to
Show me a new account in
THIS world that has 1000's of incomings. You are applying mid-game and late-game theories to a world that is 2 weeks old. While I will always use Premium, I have no fear in recruiting someone that is not using premium
AT THIS STAGE of the world. Several of my recruits have said that they see no need for it
AT THE MOMENT.
So are you going to turn that player away if they applied for an invite, but intended to use it in 2-3 weeks time???
10,000 9900 are useless, hence why worlds are so quickly finished now, theirs nobody to replace them as fast and the worlds are a much smaller scale, although the pace of the games scale has increased so much, most likely why the game has declined as it's too complicated and requires too much time and dedication to play properly.
What total bullshit. Are you seriously saying there are only 100 quality players in this world?? I brought more than 15 gun players to this world and have found a few more along the way. Extrapolate that out across the number of tribes in this world and your '100' quality player theory is total bullshit.
The game has always been complicated from a tactical point of view, but if anything, the game is now easier due to scripts and the new options with farming etc. When I played the game 5-7 years ago, we did not have scripts and we certainly did not have barbs that grew, which allowed for infinite coins/packets.
At that time, I had a 1500 village account. Imagine controlling 1500 villages without scripts or farming aids. Additionally, there are now quests to help the new players and to point them in the right direction. There are also events that boost your resource production if you get the right one.
TW is in decline due to many reasons, none of which is the crap that you listed above.
Wake up you muppet.
and obviously bashing w1-5 players was an opinion but regardless i think you'll find when i started the majority of them were bad players, they did not evolve with the game nevertheless an opinion.
Yes it is your opinion and we'd prefer for you to keep it to yourself. All you did was slander
ALL early world players. I probably fall into this category as I first started playing in W7, but I'd happily war you - early-game, mid-game or late-game.
This game is about adjusting your gameplay to suit the new and evolving tactics of the new worlds. I remember when backtiming was non-existent but now it's the norm. You change your game and you grow in experience by doing it.
Please do not insult the older world players. If it weren't for them, this game would not exist. Meh...
and why do you get known players? well i'm surprised i'm going to answer this, people cannot be trusted in this game to do simple things or be active ect the list goes on, so you get tried and tested people and minimize the risk, otherwise if you get random people you lose wars, accounts go inactive or get stolen, or the people on it are generally useless, common sense anyone who has led a tribe or being frontline knows this.
So what are you going to do when all of those known players to you decide to quit the game? Go and have a look at the big names in this game and most have quit.
In contrast, I have an extensive list of friends in this game as I give new players the chance to play with my tribe. I create new friendships and I mentor them on the finer parts of the game. I'd have a noob that is willing to learn over an elite that will not listen or will rage quit when their nuke dies any day.
Here's a thought.... a few years back, I joined a world and I knew no one. I ended up playing with a completely new group of players. My God.... we won the damn world. I did not know a single player in that world when I started as the settings were completely different to my usual group's preferred settings, but I now have a larger group of friends to draw upon.
and as for teaching people, I offer people a chance to learn from me when i turn them into farms, I give them a nice message and say I've had rank one, 11 times and several top 5 accounts across my 6-7 years of tribalwars across lots of servers, i even tell them i will send them resources to there new village on the rim and that now i have confirmed that if they restart i will send resources, then I must send them otherwise they can report me as it states in the rules.
Wow... !! 11 times as number 1... wanna a cookie?
I've also been #1 in other worlds but it means sweet stuff all in this world.
Please refer to my comment above about known players. You will end up with a smaller and smaller group of reliable friends to play with if you use this approach. Admittedly, you will definitely find idiots when teaching people and you cut your losses with these ones, but every now and then you will have the chance to find the next #1 player of a world. You will then have the satisfaction of being able to sit back and soak in their achievements.
Even more important is that
they will be loyal to you forever as you were the one that gave them the opportunity to shine.
but do you know how many takes the offer I give them? NONE as they all think they know exactly what to do and there just as good, when in reality they are useless pit whores, stupid people are often the most prideful for no reason other than "for the sake of it", that's just a common observation from my life, and with a large % of the population being stupid it's pretty easy to confirm this, although many people will disagree with anything i say, everyone has there opinions, it's just that my opinions seem to get me rank 1 every world i play properly.
But as always theirs exceptions to the rules........
I liken this game to life as this is as much a social game as it is a war game. If you apply your above statements to life, you will live a lonely and sad life... too afraid to trust those new people that you will meet. Good luck playing with your 'elite group' of friends that will dwindle with time.
You remind me of that type of player that wants nothing to do with leadership and expects everything to be done their way within the tribe but they refuse to assist. You'd be the one that would question
EVERY council decision and would ignore sensible requests. You would be that player that is happy to do their own thing because you are so 'elite' and you are 'so special'.
Over the years I've had players like you in my tribes and we've booted and rimmed them as they are not worth the effort due to their selfishness. In a nutshell, you seem like the type of player that makes leadership a tiring job.
Meh....
