Asunto: »7170 managers in Sokker!

anyone knows PERSONALLY the owners?

lets hope someone of us will won the lottery and gives higher offer than that :)

If at least admins would do their job it would be ok.
I had to wait two weeks for my new account to get activated.

I would say if you dont have a friend here or some other big reason to play (like me with my comeback) NOONE would wait, you would be looking for a different game.
User count was cut to half in Austria from when I registred to now, because account acitivation took so long that noone ever even logged in!
Beside that I would not need any new crazy features that force me to do something every day.
This is not this kind of mobile game...and should not try being one.

borkos007, you have all my respect, but i tried twice to play the footballstrategy.org. i think that game is way under sokker. too much information to deal with. better graphic presentation, but less satisfaction that you have by involving in the game.
i think that giving challenges and satisfsction of achievement would be the key also for keeping sokker alive. people will never be attracted to stay in a game with plenty of conditioning factors and few clear achievements in a(maximum) medium term.

admins do their job mate we cannot activate plus we can just send message to devs and that is all we can do :)

regarding registration there was a huge amount of fake accounts generated form facebook app
all them we have to activate manually that is way in some countries there was waiting period on top of that some divisions were full and for that admins cant do anything :(

now we have time to clean up inactive users so that is why statistic is more proper but do not forget admins are just volunteering here.

I was talking about account activation.
My Plus was automatically activated because I payed with paypal? Took a second or two :)

/edit
Ok, understand.
Thats the reason for the huge "loss" of managers the last weeks
(editado)

the great thing of sokker is tactic editor that controls the game footbostratygy has some great things but over all is far away from sokker in that matter

I have also tried FS before and considered it too complicated, stopped after a week.

But they have toned it down, it's much more 'sokkery' now, doesn't take much time at the beginning. The tactics system is much easier to grasp in the beginning than sokker's, setting the training takes time at start, but it's intuitional and you have to do it only once

Sokker seems easy because we already know all the basics about tactics, training etc. For a newcomer it's totally illogical and hard. Even creating an own tactic was always a problem because people didn't know that they can move the 'ball'.

These were not fake accounts

These were normal accounts due to a small promotion of the game by one of the users. Had it been done years ago, sokker would've easily reached 200 000 users.

it was explained before what we mean by fake accounts
yes promotion bring user to facebook app page but thats even 5% of them never logged again .....

And what I ment is the reason for them to not log in is that the account activation took weeks.
Now one can say this is because no teams were free but thats for sure not the case.
An account should be activate at least the next day if not on the same day else you lose the user by a count...

New managers should be able to login right after sign up, but with some limited access. If that's not possible, there are no free teams available at that moment. That is ofcourse also a problem, but a 'good' problem because too many teams is not a real problem ;) But if the reason for not enough free teams is lack of cleaning, admins should get to work and start cleaning those countries.

If greg would do what he has promised, there should be a bottom league in all countries by now, a league like junior league, so all new managers can always start a team as free teams won't be the problem anymore. But unfortunately it is greg ...

too many teams could be a problem especially if marketing campaign is not synced with devs . Obviously devs and the servers and all set up were not ready . Of course marketing campaign is great thing but unfortunately it harmed more . This is my opinion i may be wrong. Of course Greg fault is that did not react properly but probably he felt that extending servers and leagues will be for nothing. Any way there is no point we talk here since nothing will change in short terms :(

Hopefully we will be warned before this game will go offline, because if things continue like this, then the end may come quite soon... :(
