First, I completely agree with you, and have posted many times on the subject of how to get Playmesh more money, and us more fun and value for our money. In short, if you play this enough, you will find the game is unplayable without spending some money once you get to a big empire (i.e. Aurora's Blessing).

How is it unfair? It is already unfair that somebody can spend money to get ahead today. What sucks though is what I said above about AB.
The bottom line is that Playmesh is not a charity providing free games to people! They HAVE to make money. I have said this before, but with this super expensive model they use, very few buy, and many get ****ed off and quit because it gets too frustrating unless they fork out $20 a month, PER WORLD, which appeals to Bill Gates and Warran Buffet, but not to us common Joes who already cringe at our $100+ phone bills.
I will pay you a few bucks a month to play this game, and I know for a fact that many others will too. Beyond that, it is too expensive.
Lastly, I recently bought some coins. Conclusion? It didn't help enough to make it worth it. It was way too much money for not that much gain. I am sure it probably bought me maybe 1.5 days advancement in the world I used it in.
I am pretty close to done with this game unless something changes to help us manage large empires without spending a ton of money.
