if you have ever owned a city than you should be able to have more geos than 2500. Aspecially for us guys who can't become donators because we are to young to have credit cards and our parents won't let us.


I have 2,480 and i have no citys

if thers a cap at 2,500 and i make about 650.00 a day of all my resources not including jewel hunting wont i be screwed in a way . :(

because wouldnt i lose my resources cause they generate money and yeah

i hope u see where im going with this

Im am one of those ppl that cant donate


Please look at this from my point of view

i hope we can make this happen

If anyone else agrees please also post to this thread

If you get a city, I believe you can have more then 2500 geos, even if you are not a donator.

I agree, but think that it is important to the game. The game does need donaters and you should go after cities. Just take a city like Orlando or Missoula.

Everyone understand why you can't donate, but why can't you take a city?

You are right about that but still what if ur planning a strategy

and u need to save ur money while at the same time spend to protect ur city


u wont be gaining as much money because you'll be spending it to protect ur city that u need so u dont have a 2,500 cap

Do u see where im coming from

when u take a city u need to spend money what if u need to save your money for a strategy


I am trying to tell u :rock to hold a city u need to spend money if u want a big city like tokoyo u need a lot of geos

if u hold a city worth 13 million ppl will attack and u'll need to protect it so in the long run ur not accomplishing anything

because u'll be spending money the entire time

you seem to think that you can jump into the game and grab the largest city out there. you are very confused. maybe you need to move to rcmp recon for more training.

and i'm confused about your poll. if someone votes "if you agree" are they voting that they agree that they want to say more about the 2500 geo limit?

exactly right. Part of the game is that you participate. That means attacking and trying to hold cities.

It is unfair to have someone sit by themselves with no troops or cities and collect Geo's for a few months, and then launch 1,000,000 troop armies on the world.

People have to be enticed into participating.

There are reasons the 2500 geo-limit is in place, firstly it stops most people scripting for jewels (in combination with the feature that stops you jeweling once you have a certain amount of money) and secondly it stops people having fake accounts and saving up loads of money to send to their main account (again, in combination with the feature that makes you own a city before you can send money)

Lastly, it stops people like you saving up 10,000,000 geos and going on a rampage, the whole point of it is to get people to play, rather than wait in the shadows - if everyone was saving up for a big city there would be no war, inflation would go through the roof and we'd never get any new players because its so boring for the first year (while you save up enough to kill the billion troops inside wake island :p)

It wont get lifted no matter how much you all whinge (like babies, I might add) So in your own words, "Just shut up and play the damn game". :cool:

Hey noob (The guy that started this thread)

I also thought how you think but what you thinking right now is not cool man... Everything has been set by the admins to a level of being equal... The game is flawed and i dis-agree with you...

You poll is also a little :sad

I had like 7 cities at one stage, then got owned, then i got back up, had 3 cities and got owned, then i had 2 cities and got owned... Got sent back to the stoneage thanks to Red Ivan and WILDCAT... But you don't see me moaning about my geo limit even thou i had much more than 2500...

Live with it...

I think i should get another city... Mmmm... I'm going to be all over Wake Island like a fat kid on a cup cake... And try and squeeze my 10,000,000 troops in there... *cough*

:D :D :D :D :D

But then you'd get to 4,800 and go, I think that 5000 is too little, it should be 10,000 and so on.

As mentioned before, the limit is to (1) stop cheaters (fake accounts/scripters) and (2) entice the user to donate.

The main reason for this game is too fight. Saving up money is not fighting - and we want constant action, not every attacking once they get to 10,000 geos.

Also, the poll doesnt make much sense...

I reckon the 2,500 limit is fine, i've never had any hassles with it. (only became a donator today anyway)

I remember I was freaking out about the limit.....so I quickly became a donator.......hey man...just chat w/the parents....the money to become a donator is much less than a computer game and/or console game.....You won't have time to play those silly games any longer...It will save your parents in the long run!!!!!!! :bang

I will admit it's funny that a "No" response wasn't added to the poll.
1. Yes...
2. Longer Yes...
3. Shut up
