Well, without reading EVERY single thumbs up / thumbs down comment on here, I think it is hilarious. And I'm sure the site won't die from losing a few sign-ups on one day a year. Well done, folks.

I said it somewhere in the forum but I'll say it here again. The April fool team of CC are morons. One thing is to change the visuals but to change the product's functionality (THAT WE PAY FOR!) is a complete another matter! Bring that back and let us play our turns. The saddest part is...it's not even funny.

No it's not nice......I'm sure that wasn't intended as part of the joke........but it sucks.

Please turn it back on.


They will... in about 24 hours.

It's not the first time Bob wasn't usable, and I'm sure it won't be the last time. It's just that this time, it's not usable because all the names the program looks for, got changed.

So, no bobbipins for a day. Big deal.

However... Lack, while I appreciate your attempts to make new April Fools jokes each year, I think this one's a little overboard.

You can take your turns. You just can't use Bob to do it for 24 whole hours :o :ugeek:

and you don't pay for Bob, it's something someone designed to be nice... so, you can design bobbette and program it to work with the suweeeedish speelink

If I didn't have to take my turn before 24 hours were up, I would not play today at all, as I have problems seeing where my areas are and where I can attack the best possible way.

I totally agree this really is one of the most stupidist things I have ever seen. Is this site run by six year olds?

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=141615&start=15

over fifty percent of the people that have responded to the poll so far dislike what the company did here. If that doesn't scream what are you doing I don't know what should...

Not sure how many of you have jobs in business but if you did something that over fifty percent of your customer base disliked what do you think would happen.

Not that it matters but when my subscription is up here this will be my last year on this site. I am tired of the admins playing around with it like this is there toy.

If that is how they want to act then fine, but I am not paying to be a product of someone elses humor. If I was in the minority then fine I would shut my mouth, but I'm not, and the lack of customer service in the form of admins ignoring a large portion of their customers opinion for the sake of their own personal humor while maybe not illegal is definitely not ethical.

Funny sure, but it cost you at least $25.00 so consider this 'promotion' a giant success....I can assure you it did nothing to increase your customer base if anything it irritated people. I highly doubt this made anyone that was going to not renew their membership renew it. I can tell you for a one hundred percent certainty though that it made at least one member never come back as a paying customer again. Job well done

OK. I'll try. But I'm still using Firefox 4.0, and it worked yesterday. Reverted back to 3.6 and BOB is still broken.

I had placed the chat section on top - now it's at the bottom - and with this Double DutchSwede I'm not able to work out where to check the settings.

And when I hover over my name, my areas are not highlighted on the map, which is a great nuiscance, really.

Also, when hovering over an area, it doesn't show which areas I can attack. This is terrible for me in games like Age Of Realms 2: Magic. so I'm not pleased at all.

Glad I haven't renewed my membership. Hated this garbage when they did it a couple years ago and it surely is garbage again.

I'm pretty sure you already have an infatuation with him and this site from earlier comments so I'm pretty sure you were renewing anyways. But if lying makes you feel good as well as name calling, well than have at it.
