The player base here is too small on many servers to be self sustaining. My suggestion is to create a robot (“bot” for short) that is automated and can interact with the game and run a country just like a human could. It would bring more land to the game, help keep the markets moving, and also create a whole other dimension to the game for real players. Nothing fancy needed. Most important part is that they be as reliably addicted to the game as human players. I think this could totally change the game for the better and encourage new players to come and ensure existing players stick around and don’t bludgeon each other into Utopia.

The alternative is to let dibs bring his multies out of protection. I think the choice is clear.

Lol

bots or dibs? tough choice but i choose bots.

*facepalm

Lol

start it off even with more bad bots that only grow to 2k acres or whatever

Doesn't this already exist on a few servers? ummhmmm........
