I will keep an updated list with what I would change in eRepublik.
If you send me your comments, I will add them to this list.
1. Faster page load. You are talking about an investment of 200K Euros and 500K more in the future. With less money some video uploading/sharing websites have been founded. You really need to do something about the EXTREMELY BAD page load of your game. I feel like I’m trying to run Windows XP on an 133Mhz processor. It is not my connection’s fault, ALL the other websites work really fast. And some of them are MMORPGs.
2. Thumbs down on the news.
3. News categories and news moderation.
4. Administrative jobs in all the companies. I mean, think of it this way. In Real Life (RL) the owner of 5 corporations does not do any real work. I have some companies and I want to hire: a CEO, a HR manager, a and a Marketing manager for each of them. The CEO will have all the powers of the owner except the possibility to sell the company or collect profit , the HR manager should be able to hire/fire people and the Marketing manager should be able to sell the products, set prices, etc.
5. Forum moderators.
Add your request by commenting on this post. I will update this post when something bothers me in the game.
Remember the free eRepublik invitations.

George, thank you for the fast answer.
2. I am talking about the “Vote” button on the news.
Now it works only like a Thumbs up, why not make a thumbs up and a thumbs down? There are some pretty lame spam articles around that we might want to keep out of the main news page.
4. It is fun but having 5 companies is a lot of work. And having middle management is the secret of real-life investors. Plus, a skill in “management” besides food, housing,etc would bring value to the game.
I realize that this requires some changes to the database but I am sure that it can be done rather easily. As long as the owner keeps the monopoly on collecting profit, I believe that a busy owner should have the option of using hired middle-managers.
Thanks again for the great comments, I’m off to update the conquered countries list. R.I.P. Ukraine..
