I dont get the idea both sides understand eachother. The problem people have with RBR (It seems to me that is the problem at least) is that he barely acknowledges the role PP has played instead claiming it is because of ¨exponential growth¨. He even has on his profile that he ¨carefully engineers¨ his clusters. Like yeah bro doesnt everybody? I have a hard time believing RBR is so exceptionally good at it that he crushes rank 1 with nobody close.
That being said there is absolutely nothing wrong with having PP (bought and farmed), but there is something wrong with not mentioning the severity of the effects PP has on gameplay. I dont doubt RBR has pulled some good moves but everybody knows it is for a large part due to PP. And if you are somebody who just started this game it is very messed up if you join near RBR and get eaten.
Its like the millionairs kid claiming his business is ¨self made¨.
I won't oppose your opinion about me, because in the very end it is what you people think..
But I will justify the (cluster engineering) for you and what I meant with it....
It doesn't have to mean a cluster that looks so good in the map to everyone, It solely means a cluster that suits your own game play and how can you manage it correctly and efficiently, some players would blast to the top ranks from maintaining a wide spread of mini clusters, but some players won't know how to deal with such a thing ? if I am not mistaken!
It might be the terminology I used (in my game profile) that might sound cocky about me claiming that my cluster is the best in an indirect way, well how about I tell you it's not!
It really depends on how can someone manage his account and how good someone can keep doing it...
About the pp spending, I am guessing that every person has the power to PP spend even if you can't afford it, you can simply hardcore farm pp like many players and use it, but don't you realize one thing about all of this controversy ?
PP spending is a skill itself that you have to bear in mind, how do you spend it, how do you manage distributing it strategically and equally to give every single villa equal potentials in order to blast really hard, but unfortunately, people will just criticize you for what they call (over spending) while they haven't even checked any logs or anything? just like you did!
It's not that I do not admit that PP never played a role in that exponential growth, it's that the role it held was not (predominant), + as well as I am trying my best to avoid that topic in order to not get asked a silly question like (How much did you spend?), instead of (How do you spend it?), I would appreciate the second question and answer it wholeheartedly... Alas, I keep getting the first one, even in game mails!

We've got many big PP spenders in this game, particularly in .Net, but many of them just blast super hard early on and vanish by mid game
....
The only difference is (some spend smart, some spend stupid), and since everybody has the right to farm PP, there is basically no excuse to just come at me and say (you got PP and I don't, that's why you grew that fast!), well? why don't you just farm it?, many players farmed 500k PP in 1 world, and I guess that's , enough for you to blast super hard if you spend smart, not even that, but crush the ranks and blow the stats
