RE: Splinterlands Strategies: Insanity, Renting, Reward Cards.
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I've been playing steadily since alpha packs and seeing all this unfold for Splinterlands has been fun. I used to say jokingly buying fire beetles will be more worth than buying ethereum, turns out I was right.
Btw our guild has become more active, I don't know are you paying attention there but guild brawls are now worth playing, you get new gladiator packs only for brawls.

I have many Fire Beetles, they are one card not worth combining as the rental price sucks. The card has it's use in some situations!
I have not looked a Guild Brawls but as my deck is split amongst 2 accounts if a certain splinter is needed it may not work. Otherwise I may give it a go.
I am on the verge of placing ALL my cards up for rent, and then of course I won't be able to compete at all.
I didn't expect you to kick me out of the guild after 2 years. A message would have been nice, I contributed DEC in the past but I guess that doesn't count? I did rent out everything for a season, but have decided to play again from this one. No matter, I will find another guild.
I don't do the kicking so it wasn't me. That's the thing, new guild rules became strict and are live for 3 seasons already, 500 Dec per season, not much really. Maybe if you said something in the guild chat everything would be fine.
I see you are taking on a bunch of Bronze players. Do you think they will continue to pay 500 DEC a month? They get about 1 DEC per match. So it wasn't you.., fair enough I wont hold it against you, but I do feel that your guild is kicking above it's level.
I have never been a fan of mandatory contributions, or demands. I did rent all my cards out on both this and the @bingbabe account. Both were kicked probably because they were in the Bronze league. I have since stopped doing the 100% renting and am back in Gold on both accounts.
The brawls I was about to give a go, and then I was kicked. I am pissed about it but will find a guild that doesn't make demands, I am happy with the voluntary system. Renting out my 'chaff' cards on a single account gives me far more than 500 DEC daily.
@thebluewin, your leader.. ought to communicate more, that's all I will say on the matter.
You can always rejoin, I'm sure blue will get you back, but maybe this guild is not good for your personal tastes considering the new rules, I don't know.
It seems that battling in lower leagues brings better results than going higher where the competition is stronger, in the end you actually get better rewards playing in lower brackets.
I can understand the 500 DEC a season in a top 30 guild but look at where you are? Do you want to be kicking seasoned players out with Beta's and adding newbies that don't have a hope of getting in without paying through the nose? That's what Splinterlands is and we all know it. I am currently looking for another guild, and as I say... no bad feelings between us.
I hope they will patch this exploit up. Splinterlands is a pay to earn game, and as bad as it sounds my capitalistic viewpoint agrees it should remain so.
I am using this to react to the whole conversation between you and moon32walker.
Yes, you contributed DEC in the past. That and the 2 years in the guild have been the reason I was waiting for 2-3 seasons. I don't like to kick members but I also want the guild to be competetive and that's only possible with enough active members. I think 500 DEC per season is not that much but gives the guild constant small growth allowing us more upgrading of the new buildings, which are probably very worth it with all the future things coming in SL like the lands.
I am not a fan of mandatory contributions either. But what does it bring if only very few contribute something? I was always hoping for a SL feature like guild tax where every member automatically contributes a small % of ranked DEC earnings every match, but that's not here yet.
You are always welcome to join back if you want, as I only kicked you out of the reason it looked like you have been inactive (guild wise).
Our new guild members are all playing higher than bronze (at least before this season's soft reset), had a lot of matches the last 4 weeks and they all have at least a bit of an own card collection. They deserve their chance.
We have a great core of active and well (brawls) playing guild members which would not be possible if we just kept all old members.
