Real Life vs Game Life
TheJakal
For all of you reading this article, 90% of you will understand that eRepublik is a game and that ePakistan is a virtual country in a digital world.
For the 10% of you who get confused that this is your Real Life, please grow up and stop whining.
We all play this game by choice, because we enjoy it, some of us spend crazy amounts of money on it, others don't.
Some of us take active positions in the government, some of us don't.
Some of us go for battle honours, others don't.
The point is, if you take up a government role within the game, please don't ruin the game for everyone else by bitching about how important your Real Life is and how you don't have time.
Several people who miserably fail at what they do, take up their Real Life committments as an excuse for their sorry ass performance in game. You know who you are. No body cares, get over yourself and stop trying to be a power hungary fool.
Some positions are more important than others and some positions require additional time and committments from the ePlayer.
We have been steadily growing due to the efforts of a number of people who by choice spend time on this game and play active roles.
It really doesn't matter what you did in the past, what matters is the present and the future, so if you don't have time, than stay away from key positions.
ePakistan is NOT dependant on one person, it will survive regardless of who quits and who takes time off. No body cares.
Enjoy the game for what it is, a game.

Agreed & VOTED
True...at the end of the day, it's still just a game 🙂
V!
also, the people who take this game seriously need to calm down a bit. Believe it or not, you won't die in this! So try working together instead of throwing tantrums and tossing allegations at everyone
and this msg is dedicated to??? 😛
well if you dont like someone dont put em up in such positions that effect your country... say if the CP is inactive, doesnt have time for this game, so dont vote for him next time
and at the end i would second spakfyre... it's still a game no reason to give it priority over RL
totally agreed. Voted.
As THE JOKER would put it, "Why so Serious??"

Totally agreed with thejakal and
Voted
True. Everyone who thinks he/she is busy in RL at that particular stretch of time, should refuse to take up important positions "before" taking the position, not after failing to deliver. Staying away from the game and being busy in RL is always a part of this game if you play it for a long time. There are other far more capable people in the game who arent tried out yet. They should get a chance too........!
Well said Annihilator10.
true...voted.
Its usually people without an actual RL, as in people who lack appreciation, affection and importance in RL. People who have no meaning in RL and who are insecure and have complexes. People who fail to achieve anything. These are the types of people who have a psychological problem and their game identity becomes a sort of an alter ego. Within their subconscious mind, they begin to believe that their life makes sense. Its basically evading real life responsibilities. Life needs to be balanced.
I had witness something today on our chat room, and i must say there are much to learn not only in this game but also as a human being. Fun is very very different thing but insulting someone is really very different thing. Voted hard for this article, it bitter but it's true every single world this man TheJakal has written in this article
I smell a score being settled in this article.
btw thejakal, take it easy. After all its a game. I hope you won't go again dividing people into groups as you did in dodial's term. : )
Ah logic, its funny you mentioned dividing people. I'll have a follow up article on that too.
As for score settling, I think the article is brutally honest, if you feel your one of those guys than you need to change bro.
Voted! 🙂
