We went for some time with no events and that is the only time I ever thought of quitting and I have been playing like close to five years.
I don't fault the storm team for putting a building "The SCHOOLHOUSE" for sale to make money to pay overhead, employees, etc.
And as a former office manager I would not make every day a gimme.
Meaning if one day ...the last day is not hard how the heck are they going to get players to buy THE SCHOOLHOUSE boost.
The bottom line is if the company does not make money then the game ceases to exist.
I do not mind buying some gems to support one of the best gaming companies out there.
They even put THE SCHOOLHOUSE on sale for 88 gems.
Players are able to earn gems by sending trains, some drops from pets, watching a video or from show ponies.
I save my gems to buy the building boost for these events.
If you have zero gems then 88 gems is going to cost you about FIVE DOLLARS.
I don't think that is gouging.
Heck I look at it as the price of a coffee and a donut.
Support the game and the events.
Thank you Storm8 staff for continuing to do events for us players and for the first time ever giving a pet for just turning in five collections.
The star path, the pig in the locker and the library cat, etc were outstanding decor.
Like wow hats off to the designers.
