A newbie’s insight on eRepublik
PRINTSY
I like to consider myself a baby citizen of this virtual world in order to not get upset (or angry, depending on the case) when I want to fight for an achievement and it happens with people that from 1 single hit have more damage than I can possibly make after 200 or more. Is there no division for baby fighters like myself? Now, seriously, is there any justice in this e-world? 🙂
We have all sort of institutions and people that lead them. Just wondering why since they don’t also help newcomers to put things into perspective and to learn how to best approach the game. Ok, one could Google it and find useful information online, but it’s different.
I consider myself lucky because in the first days of the game I received some donations. But this wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t watched Clopoyaur’s stream where I won a giveaway. Some more followed in other streams and things started rolling a bit for me. So yes, I’d say that without the help of some people from this community, I would have gotten bored after the first 5 days (or less). (I’ll take this opportunity to say thanks to all those that helped either with donations or endorsements to my previous articles. Really appreciate it!
My feeling is that things are a bit dusty around here. If you keep things really simple and play by yourself, it’s better to shut down your computer and read a good book or something (actually, this might be a good idea either way, but let’s not be mean).
Ok, yesterday there was that guerrilla competition organized by the same Clopoyaur (by the way, after writing my previous article about his stream, I found out that he actually is an ambassador. This sounds like a cool program, at least on paper), in which many people got involved and participated, but besides that I don't see many things happening.
After 20 days of eRepublik, playing without reading any articles with tips and tricks and without any tutorials, my thoughts are as follows:
- I’ll play for fun, not for medals (there is no way I can compete with older citizens, so no point in struggling to fight for I don’t know what achievements. Although I might add it feels good that I’m ranked 2nd as a slayer in the Opponents Defeated Leaderboard of Romania, Division 1 and 1st in my MU last week. Not much to most of you, but to me it’s cool 😃
)
- I have to learn how to be patient. At this stage, few things can be done. No energy, no strength, no nothing. I’m curious where all these will take me…
- there is no point in asking myself why after so many years of this game, the media module (press module, whatever it’s called) has so few features (and I imagine that some other modules are probably in a similar situation. I wouldn’t know though, so better not to talk about that). No notifications for new comments, you can’t see your subscribers and so on
- it’s better to try to become part of a community if you want it to be fun
So yes, a newcomer might feel like Alice in wonderland (but without the magic of it) wondering which way to go and what to do next. I’m curious how this experience is for other baby citizens (who are playing for the first time this game). Maybe some of them put more thought into it and do their homework, not like me. But, hey, I don’t intend to be some kind of a role model citizen, so I can afford some laziness and no strategy whatsoever.
PS: If you like my articles, don't forget to subscribe (that subscribe button should be under "vote" button to make things easier, if you ask me). I wouldn't mind getting that media mogul medal at some point (if I stick around that long, that is) 😃

Great article again! Congratz!
Thanks 🙂
well said
It is a hard e-life for the new players indeed.
This is the main reason a lot of new players quit game after a while.
So hard bro 🙂
Hei, newbie! Ei bine, ai un inceput bun! Si da, si mie imi place eViata fara strategie. Dupa 3 luni de eRepublik, eu am scris un articol cu lectiile pe care le-am invatat si ceva sfaturi pentru noobs like me - poate te ajuta -> https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-advice-for-a-noob-3-luni-de-erepublik-and-counting-2611468/1/20
Oricum, cel mai bun sfat pe care ti-l pot da este sa intri pe Slackul erepro si sa cunosti lumea - they're pretty awesome. Sper sa te vad acolo!
Hugs and kisses from a fellow noob ❤
Ce e aia? Detalii, pls 😁
Este chatul comunitatii de romani. Daca vrei, pot sa ma interesez si sa iti fac rost de o invitatie :3
Daca chatul e cu invitiatii, si nu e public, e clar. Or sa fie acceptati doar catelusii casei, restul or sa fie banati si tinuti pe afara de cei care detin adevarul supreme. Acelasi lucru au facut cand au ingropat Rizonul.
@zmeuNY Nu suntem una si aceeasi persoana 😛
Deocamdata nu vreau sa aloc mai mult timp decat o fac deja. Insa iti voi spune, daca e Multumesc 🙂
Sigur! Let me know whenever! >😃
zmeuNY Comment deleted - asta spusesei si mai sus? E amuzant, ca nu esti prima persoana care zice asta 😁 Dar nu, sorry to burst your bubble. There actually are girls on the Internet!

Si eu care credeam ca PRINTSY si Adinusk e aceeasi persoana, si ca e de fapt barbat....
I love it! The way you think. How old are you? Are you studying something?
v+s+s+e+whatever you needed
I learn everyday something. I don't call it "study" 😃 Thanks for all those 😁
V+s
subed 🙂
hope that I will see every article that you get out....
wen I srarted the game there was some cind of academy in Slovenia and about 10peaple were always there to talk to you and help you understand your game, probably that was the thing that made me stay in this game for the first days, but now there is not so many new players
Thanks

no romanian language?!
Este un articol (povestioara) in romana publicat acum cateva zile. Am prieteni din toate colturile lumii. Mi se pare corect sa scriu si in engleza. Dar stai pe-aproape, urmeaza sa mai public si in RO 🙂
start buying stuff from Plato and fun will cum... if not for you than for Plato.. 😃
I dont intend to do that 😃
Wise choice!
He has a point, though... 😃
Good afternoon
Hello to you too. Good luck with the elections 😃

Thanks

Daca vrei Media Mogul trebuie sa scrii si in engleza. Nu cred ca mai sunt 1000 de romani dispusi sa apese pe subscribe.
Nu mi-ar displacea, dar e posibil sa nu am atata rabdare 🙂
aaaa, si despre zmeu... candva m-am distrat copios cand a inceput sa-mi explice ca sunt clona, cont preluat, barbat, etc.; rasul e o forma excelenta de exercitiu, te mentine intr-o forma fizica si mentala excelenta 😃
Trebuie sa ii multumim ca ne ajuta 😛
probabil ca asta se crede despre toti cei noi. Nimeni nu isi inchipuie ca cineva ar avea rabdare sa inceapa jocul asta acum. I can't blame them for that 😁
prea multe articole într-un timp prea scurt.
mai taie din ele........
Care este frecventa pe care o consideri tu optima? 😃
Nu te obliga nimeni sa le citesti, sa stii. Multam ca te-ai obosit sa treci pe aici... 😉
you dont get it.... do you?
oh, the irony.
I guess it was you who didn't get it 😃
Have fun \o/
