few people resetting their accounts wont fix the issue, the issue im trying to highlight is the balancing shit. you'll get to a point where you'd need like a full year of constant playing/training to get "decent" stats. most people don't play games that long, it limits the amount of people who would want to play.

and eventually even for long term players, the longer the game goes on the less playability.

the object of resetting is to keep it fun, so theres no heirarchy of bullshit that lasts (literally) years. you guys need to remember at the end of the day this is a game, its meant to be played, its meant to be fun.

most the people bitching are saying so because they don't wanna lose their shit. but is it worth it to let the game die?

Yea I see what you saying man but I dont agree there is diffrent ways to go about it..Just example Advertisment would help out alot... Even Dumb spam ads would help..The Game needs more people to help out woth programing the game..There is not a whole lot they can do tho TBH but more than they are doing...This Idea you have just makes no sense to me...

Would players buying Favs from the warden do anything yes if the game was making more money they would put more effert into the game..Some people have ambition some dont all reseting the game is going to do is get us right back where the game is nowi.

.Also what would happen to all the players that been on here for yrs and all there amens get wiped out that spent 100"s even 1000's on this game..I know I wouldnt come back fuck that shyt...PB is what the players make it to be in the long run with Help from Staff.....Can we do more to help support the game well yea but the people who run PB can also..Just bad idea in my eyes hey I'm only one voice tho..Besides reseting the game what do you think would make it better...

PB is already pretty much fucked. Lower levels can't get anywhere, they pretty much died off. High levels are on top, but without active players they will have nothing to do.

Reset now, their progress is wasted. Don't reset now, they will have more time to be high levels and do things to other high levels. Seems boring either way.

If there was an incentive to higher players on reset, that might be better.

Like after a reset give permanent bonuses based on level, stats, items, and amens.

But that's not gonna happen.

When you walk into any Jail there people on top its all about how you present yourself plain and simple...When the new players have no respect and they are jackass's that talks shyt all the time there just not gonna make it nor would they in any jail or game out there...If new players come and are respectful they have a good shot all us started some where...It's all how you play your game........

If they Walk like a duck talk like a duck and act like A duck well shyt there probably a duck.....

A lot of the argument against this comes from how much money people put in, I think I put down around ~$100 bucks real cash and I don't regret it and I'm not looking to make it back, I got my moneys worth tbh.

But if everything was reset, I also think those same players would still have many opportunities to make up for their losses, because we'd have new events, and the amens everyone has now would be super rare again, and you could paypal em if you want, and make decent bank on it... and repeat. So it's not a total waste.

Some people did disproportionately spend money, sure... and some might lose a lot, but they would lose more if one day they try to sign on, and they realize Idle Media Inc. shut down prisonblock because its no longer profitable.

It would DEFINITELY be a serious shift in how we play, and maybe some butthurt bitches (demolition) would run off crying that they don't have 10 billion speed anymore but i think as shit gets moving, and events come out people would be mad excited to get amens that everyone used to have, but now are rare, and worth like $20-30 real cash on the market. keeps shit interesting.

old gangs would have to scramble to get back together and try to dominate the block again,, underdogs would come up, it would just make it more exciting.

im not too active anymore but that is more about my time to play rather than wanting to play but it seems too unfair to reset..i see where it would seem impossible for someone to start now and catch up to the top, but u cant punish the people who are actually playing the game and spending money/making money for the site(traffic wise, and yes i know the staff said its not profitable but thats not the players fault). a more fair thing i thought about awhile ago like playing battlefield and i dont play but like skyrim i think..is have a max level or stats for a period of time..like say max level of 40..when u get there u cant train..still crime and get amens and shit but stats are froze..then say after 6 months level 45 is the new max..i still dont personally like it but thats the way some other games are set up. and to me seems more fair than taking away from people..just slow them down
