at 12:13 PM, Saturday December 22, 2007 EST Dear What's left of the Kdice Community, Just wanted to drop a note and say thanks for all the fun times, good laughs and great conversations. I've had a wonderful time with you all and wish you the best. And to my PGE's, I appreciate the time and energy you put into hating me. I am honored. The time has come that I move on... Since September, I have seen this great game just fall apart. From a major game changed to spiked threads, I will not invest my time in a game that does not respect how important the players of a game are. When I first started this game, I thought Ryan was wise and much like a man in charge, he had a group of passionate people dedicated to this game advising him and helping him take this game to it's fullest potential. I was wrong. If anything, the opposite is true. There is very little done for retention of dedicated players and even less listening to them when they do have a valid point. Dedicated players are influencers, your best marketers. Without them, you lose the passion for the game. New players are very important because you have to expect drop-off, but keeping those players who are engaged in the game engaged will create longevity and investment in your game. And by dedicated, I don't mean the top 25, I mean those who are passionate about the game. We all know the RND drama and while I disagreed with most of his style, he was a very important part to this game. Every good story needs a protagonist and an antagonist... with RND, the story of KDICE was complete and exciting. Now, Ryan has slipped into the antagonist role... a dangerous spot for any leader. I respect the work that Ryan does and the amount of time he puts into this game. I truly believe he is doing the best he can with what skills he has. But that is just it. He has not realized yet that he can't be it all. This is a hard lesson to learn... one that I think takes many years to fully realize and one that I hope Ryan comes to understand. Bringing people together and listening to your players will take this game where you want to go. Get someone to help you who isn't a programmer... one that understands how to listen, relate, and reply. I've built many successful brands in my short lifetime and I have seen the problem with Kdice before and will see it again. It's quite common. You're not the answer to the problems of this game, you're are the problem. Once you get that, things will be better. So my final advice... stop being the Brittany Spears of the Video game world, realize what you have, get some help and achieve the full potential of this game. To the players, keep speaking out and creating a dialogue that furthers this game. Speak your opinions and play by your word. Take care of your stacks, DG And for anyone that wants to chat...

Saxon White Kessinger Sometime when you’re feeling important; Sometime when your ego’s in bloom Sometime when you take it for granted You’re the best qualified in the room, Sometime when you feel that your going Would leave an unfillable hole, Just follow these simple instructions And see how they humble your soul; Take a bucket and fill it with water, Put your hand in it up to the wrist, Pull it out and the hole that’s remaining Is a measure of how you’ll be missed. You can splash all you wish when you enter, You may stir up the water galore, But stop and you’ll find that in no time It looks quite the same as before. The moral of this quaint example Is do just the best that you can, Be proud of yourself but remember, There’s no indispensable man. |

Just wanted to drop it like it's room temperature. To all the DiceyGirlXX's out there you suck and you are fat. Time has come to come on your mom's bum. We all know Dicey sucks. Ryan is the antagonist... Danger Cat! Love, Your Mom |

Boo frigging whoo DicerGirl. Why don’t you grow up and get over your entitlement issues. Real reason you are quitting and whining is because people like you are being forced to play for real . You know you can’t compete without resorting to cheating like PGA so you are bailing out. Why don’t you actually get some real skills… Anyway since you are leaving take your entitlement issues with you and don’t let the door slam you on your way out. Kdice will do great without people like you. Now to your post JDizzle 787 Quote “Dedicated players are rarely noticed by Ryan, or anyone other than themselves. I've been an active player and social commentator for this game for about a year (hiatus in September and October) but no one gives a fuck. I constantly try to validate myself to get some sort of pride, but it's useless.†Excuse me but why exactly should we give a fuck? So you have been an active player and whatever.OK fine and it sure is nice that you have been enjoying Kdice for such a long time but… so frigging what? See that is all there is to it. You write that dedicated players are rarely noticed by anyone other than themselves. Now why exactly should these dedicated players be specially “noticed†by “less dedicated†players? I mean WTF are you after for? WTF do you want? Do you want a trophy or something? You seem to think that all these “less dedicated†players should bow down to you and treat you like a superior human being or something. Fuck that. Seriously fuck that. You have some MAJOR entitlement issues. Go get help. Quote “I constantly try to validate myself to get some sort of pride, but it's useless.†Man seriously please do tell me you did not write that… So basically what you want is others to kiss your ass and call you master. You are seeking of acceptance and you have weak ego that you are trying to buff but no one seems to care. Huge fucking LOL because I dont know where to even begin.You need to realize that you are playing a game. Now you may be good at Kdice or not. It really does not matter because Kdice is just a game. See here is the truth: in the end it does not matter a flying fuck if you are good at Kdice or not or if you are a dedicated player or not just because… Kdice is nothing but a GAME and this my friend is also why absolutely no one gives a fuck about you or any other “dedicated playersâ€. So you spend more time on Kdice than an average player? Ok well maybe you should take a look at your priorities and your life. When Kdice comes your life and instrument to validate yourself in other people’s eye’s then you Sir. are nothing but a tool. Most people (the rest of us) come here to play a game in order to relax, to take a break etc. and have some fun every now and then. Yeah we all do play Kdice but for us "regular" players it has not become focal point of our life. Then there are people like you who take Kdice far too seriously. Quote: “. I've put effort into saying what I think about this game, giving ideas, and for what?†Basically you also seem to be unhappy because according to yourself people in general do not seem to pay attention to what you say and post on these forums. Look if you had something to say worthwhile I am sure Ryan and everyone in general would listen to you. Maybe and only maybe so far you have not had anything worthwhile to say so people have just chosen to ignore your ideas, suggestions, comments and posts in general. Just keep posting ideas and when you hit a good one I am sure people will acknowledge it. Btw Learning curve on Kdice is not exactly that high at all which is one more reason to basically say that it means shit how long you are played Kdice as long as we are not talking about complete newbies. Words by great PGA monitor: “Good Riddance! One by one we will take the pga cheaters down. The Time of the great deletions is upon us! 4 down 6 more to go.†|
