I have seen some major changes come about here and I want to express how I think some of them are good and some not so good. I think that a lot of them take place with more thought about immediate impact and less about long term effects. Some were rather abrupt, creating major shifts on player's focus on the game.
The long timers are affected least on here, they know the tricks and many share with others.
The new users are affected more because they don't have to use many tricks to get the first 48 Levels done.
I'll post a second entry where I will start at the top working down and edit it as I go. For those who aren't at the top, they won't understand it yet, but those who are, some will see what I'm saying, while others will not. I hope to not alienate anyone while I do this.
