But to be good at the ''fun'' parts of the game, you have to invest time in grinding and grinding to get the gear needed.
You need money to do what you think is fun. Thats ok. We all need cash for something. But just like in WoW, you cant just do raids without putting the time in and collect needed gear. In MnF you need to collect some money.
Alt Farming to get money is like hacking in WoW and giving yourself exp and gear. Its a way around the intended way of the game. And yes, we all want to play the fun parts of the games, but using means not intended by the makers to skip the path and head to the reward is, in fact, cheating.
Lots of people have found ways to earn money besides the minigames. Like stripping, auctions and challeging people for rodeo. some girls and guys sell pictures in return for money. But honestly, just cheating it in is very lazy.
And in my experience, delaying the fun, as you call it, will make it better. Just like sometimes in sex you shouldnt cum right away and let it build a while yaknow?
Alt farming was a loophole in the rules, the devs patched the hole up. Thats all what happens. Now the community get to search for new ways to earn money.

Honestly i don't care. First of all, i am not here to discuss your opinion about me, so if i am lazy, bad, dishonest, well WHO CARES? This forum is not about me, it is about the game. I don't really care if someone from the other side of the world thinks that i'm a bad man. Really.

About the "Delaying the pleasure" part. When in sex you delay the pleasure you still do something that you like. It's still having sex! You are just delaying the most beautiful part of it, but you are still making it!

Not at all: if i do that in WoW, or in any other similar game, i will be able to RUIN other people's game! If i get stronger than you and kill you everyday, just because i cheated, that's wrong, because YOUR game experience will be bad for MY fault. Here There is no problem , for no one. I am not stopping you from having sex, interactions and so on. You will just play happily as always. You would not even notice that!

In World of Warcraft, or in any other farming-involving game, correct me if i'm am wrong: if you are, let's say a warrior, you will not have the main warrior adventure until you farm, before, but you farm with other adventures! You fight now weaker enemies, and later will fight the important ones. But you are having an adventure while fighting! You are not riding a mechanical bull! You don't get completely bored in doing something unrelated to your main purpose! Is it so hard to understand? In Mnfclub you join for interacting with other people, but the "necessary farming" will be something that to me is completely boring.I want to fight, let's say, with a giant troll, but first , for a number of reasons, i have to fight with somebody else. It would still be fighting! It is still part of the story, it is still part of the game! You are not moving your mouse left and right in riding a mechanical bull. If i come here for the interaction, and you make me ride a mechanical bull, it is DIFFERENT! I can't have an interaction while doing that, i can do nothing else! It is completely different from the main purpose of the game!
Lol, imagine that you come to my restaurant, and ask for something. Even if it is a FREE restaurant.
If i tell you "ok, i will do it, but first please try another food. Just to try, for free." THAT is delaying a pleasure.
But if i tell you "OK, you'll have what you asked, but before go cleaning my house". THIS is something completely unrelated to what you want, something boring, something that you can't enjoy. And i decided to do that, so i am the developer, and so on, but clearly i am not making something that will make you come back to my restaurant. Even if it is a FREE restaurant.

Please don't keep pointing out the obvious things. Even if i know that, i am here for giving my feedback too, and that's completely ok. If we are TALKING about it, if this involves some sort of feedback from the users, then money should be WAY more easy to get. OR it should be more interaction-related and sex-related. Because really, making left-right-left-right-left-right on a mechanical bull is WAY different from roleplaying, from chatting, from having sex in a room, and it means that it is completely different from anything that you can like here. If i have to do it, it should be brief.
One last thing: I am not a stupid, i know that now you can buy money, and that has been made to earn more money even from non-Premium users. But really, focusing on how to make me pay BEFORE focusing on what i pay for, is a bit... unconvincing. This game lacks a good chat, even if it is just an elementary chat system, just a bit better than what you have now. With a sidebar for usernames that are in your same room, for example, or the possibility to read more than just a few lines. The possibility to click on username on a sidebar if you want to see a profile, instead of looking for him/her in the room. Nothing complicated, but just somethng technically better than this. The chat was just one of the possibility, and i know that this is not the technical feedback forum. I am just saying that raising in some way the prices for something, without even making it decent, is a good way to make people go away. I don't want more positions, or more clothes, just something A BIT better. And i know that i can go away, that if i don't like the game i can just not play it. I read that post. Really, Captain Obvious would be proud of you. I think it was Inala, i am not going to check, i am lazy, lol. But if you want a feedback it is to ATTRACT users,or at least to let them stay, not to make them go away.
I hope that it is clear now, lol. Sorry if i always make it so long, lol.
