I had just come to the realisation that... I am no longer having any fun in this game. The frustrations I get from this game and my personal experience of this game is no longer what I used to percieve. I believe I am not the only one when I say that I have always been in denial that this is not the kind of game I want to 'play'. When I came across a thread on why people play this game despite showing their hate on this forum, I asked myself too. I remember I first got into the game in 2003 and everything was new and exciting. Now years down the road I am just desperately mining FOMA and HELL to regain my losses while decieving myself that 'Hey you're going to get your losses back, look at everyone around you that is doing well!'.
I've become somewhat an addict to the game, depositing and depositing in hopes to get something nice. Now I am sure many of you have genuine fun and I have no doubts about it. I personally had just realised that I have been treating the game like a casino. Being someone who has never gambled and hated it, I realised this is no longer a game for me. So while it is still early I decide to quit the game after I spend the remainder of my peds. I am not rendering the possibility of returning to the game as zero in the future but rather than constantly telling myself that I will leave the game soon, I will take the first step as to delete the game and spend that money on life.
I always asked myself if this is what I want to spend on. I do not know anything about how the game works. When people start viewing the game as a way to gamble then it is no longer a game. Tell this game to anyone of my friends and they instantly identify it as a hoax/scam. I'm letting my investments be controlled by a company when there are way bigger companies out there that wouldn't think twice about taking my money and running away. Cite Lehman Brothers for example.
Before I make this into a rant post I will end it here. I did however truly have fun in the game and aside from my constant whining about the losses, I'm thankful for the friends I made in this game. Just that I realised this game is the kind of game that I shouldn't have touched. I do not smoke, drink or gamble and when this game is turning me into someone I don't want to be then it is time to stop. I am not stopping people from playing as I know there are those out there that are truly enjoying the game and loves it. I personally just went the wrong path and perception of the game. The biggest mistake is switching to become a FOMA/HELL miner. Look at any pure FOMA miner and you will see that at the end of all our deposits, we are not asset rich at all because we dump the peds in amps and bombs. What something is, is basically how you percieve it. My perception of the game changed despite what I had always convinced myself.
I hope those that complain about the game actually question themselves if the game had become a bad addiction. And those that enjoys the game to continue enjoying it !
