People who make a deal with you then renage without any explanation.

Expanding buildings then forgetting to hire employee's Doh!!

Finding your research finishes in the middle of the night.

People ordering coins, me sending the coins 2 seconds after the order and then having to wait for 2 days before they sign the contracts..without a word..grrr..

it happened to me twice, when I sent contracts pending, I rushed to accept some fast before ppl will sign my contracts, but no luck twice.

My customers actually accepted the contracts faster than I could click accept to my incoming contracts.. that's how u get to a Billionaire with only about 300m fixed assets..

I don't intend to do any more contests unless they utilise the buildings I have.

If and when a contest come that I can participate in, I will sell on smallish contracts and covert the money into raw materials straight away.

People who have forgotten what it is like to be new and enthusiastic about the game and instead of saving their bitterness and negativity for those being utterly brainless about not listening to good advice (Like "don't try an sell sometthing for more than Raw Material LLC (NPC) sells it for") instead try to put down any and all newcomers, thereby making the forums an unwelcome and cliquey place that the new folks avoid!

Thank goodness for experienced players like Horizon Holdings who help balance those kind of jaded and overly negative people out!

I wasn't aware we (we = people that post a lot on the forum) did that to new players, at least not on a regular basis...do we??

It happens on a number of forums.... only one main source of it on here that I've noticed (Clue... it isn't you!). But it definatly is one of MY pet hates. I've seen that kind of thing virtualy kill off forums because nobody new was joining and staying long enough to become a new regular.

Aaaah... I know whom you are speaking of..lol...(I think), yes he can be quite scary, especially the first time you meet him.. after a while you get used to it though..in a twisted strange way you even get fond of him.
You know, like your favorite lizard or ant..

I don't find net trolls scary but I know many younger folks who play such games do.

I can guarentee you I don't get 'fond' of overly negative people. Brusk and robust is fine and dandy, I've been tarred with those brushes a time or two, but negativity.... if someone is feeling that negative that they need to vent it on game forums then they likely need to get out of mommys basement and go socalise with actual real live people.... prefferably some of which will be of the opposite gender

Mind you I might get 'fond' of poking him with a virtual pointy stick

my hate pet is when small companies (500000 fixed assets, 50000 cash)and send me the message "can i buy cars"
or "do you want to do bussines with me?" and when i ask them what "do bussines"
and mostly when ppl send contracts of 1000 power for 1000c each etc!
the bad thing is that when you grow bigger the more such messages you accept!
