Dear Citizens,
As many of you already know, the 14th of October will be the pre-launch of Erepublik V1 to our existing community of BETA users. This will be followed by the official launch on the 21st when we begin to actively share V1 with the outside world (press launch). As a result, the site will be down today as we make the transfer from BETA to V1..
Here is some fun stuff about the development:
- 4 months of work until the first blueprints were created
- 10.000 hours is the total amount of work for creating the specs, design, developing and testing. Not including the brainstorming fights we had.
- More than 2000 tickets (tasks) for the developers
- More than 200 pages of documentation
- Around 40 km walked by George within the office
- More than 20 team members worked on creating this product
- 4 different major layouts changes
- 2 team members broke up with their girlfriends because they spent most of the time at the office.
All of this because:
- We had a crazy idea that proved to be interesting not just to us (thanks for that)
- You the community quickly showed us the limitations of the beta and how we could make it better
- We were prepared for hundreds of challenges but had to resolve thousands;
- The BETA design did not support a large amount of simultaneous citizens online and we couldn’t grow it technically to its potential; so had to rewrite everything for scalability;
- It became harder and harder to add new features in the old code;
- We have a huge amount of involved citizens that have driven us to work on the weekends and during the nights because we are passionate about making Erepublik a better place for the community.
What we’ve done:
- Changed almost 100% of the code and design;
- Created a slightly different gameplay based on the same ideas of economic, political and geo-political simulations and community interaction. Erepublik is still Risk meets Civilization meets the web on steroids;
- Came up with new modules, improved many and took out a few of the old ones;
- Focused on the “15 minutes user experience” so that citizens that are less excited about their political or economic careers can still have fun during their time in Erepublik.
- Improved the citizen’s interactions
What we have not done
- Gotten it all perfect right from start. We know that some will not like a few of the new features in V1 and others will not like certain things we removed.
- Make all the modules as good as we would like them to be.
- Put all the changes that we wanted to make in this first version of V1
- Found all the bugs, although the ones we know about have been fixed.
What we’ll do:
- Top priority: resolving bugs and security issues that may appear over the next few days and working on the scalability of the new platform;
- Improve the current features and implement new ones: API system, multi-language, mobile version, citizen’s adds, 1vs1 fights, random events, reputation system, create polls, private forums and the list continues
- help the API devs create new interesting apps connected to Erepublik.
Conclusion: We will present to you in a few hours a new Erepublik. A new world in which we have invested a lot of work and energy. A new world that we consider a big step forward but, at the same time, a world that needs much more work and is far from being complete.
The real world might have been created in 6 days but… we are just the admin and the only person with superpowers around here is Cristesco (apparently he says he can find multi accounts when sleeping). Consider this version of V1 as day 1 and enjoy it when we go live!
Thank you all for your support and for being a part of Erepublik.
The Erepublik Team

Along with this major change I have to announce that Cristesco from now on will be Cristi Badea (my real name).
Thank you guys for everything, thanks for helping us in Beta, you are a great community and I feel like I am the luckiest guy in the world for being able to work with you in the New World.
You all have been great! See ya Beta, welcome V1!!
Thank You
Can’t wait… thanks!
isn’t it the 12th? and the 13th Tomorrow?
Bring it on I say.
tomorrow is october 13th right?
or am I lost in time?
Awesome. Sounds like it was a very daunting task - I hope the release goes well. Bring on version one!
hope this will be what we all have been expecting . btw: the test release version sucks big time btw
Last time I checked, Monday was on the 13th…
So which is it?
Now while we all appreciate what you guys are trying to do for us, many of us from the eUS are concerned about the direction in which this V1 will take erep.
I’m sure many others and my self would’ve been content with opening up the Current Beta to the public, and then slowly introducing new elements, instead of this shock that I’m sure is going to lose many players.
Now other than being lever 12-14 or whatever starting out, Are there any other incentives for being loyal citizens before V1?
But, today is 12 :S
I hope there’s better ways to get GOLD! I want to make a company and a party
K.I’s right.
Finaly…
ketigax..
God save our eSouls!
Oh! This article diappered for some time. It’s back now. Looks like Admin Changed it. Wouldn’t be suprised if in a few minutes the site was back up
what’s up with pre-release?
So, will the site be down on the 13th if it’s even closed today? Or is it coming out a day early?
Get rid of the god damn trivia
Yes!
Tomorrow will be a long day without eRepublik
Bring back mayors or governors or whatever you want to call them so new members have something to aspire to.
I appreciate good to do a very good game smart and well done, but continue to feel that this change that v1 did in beta, maybe not going to please everyone:) more with everything still think it’s a great game
YAY!!! Tomorrow’s a great day to get unbanned!!
I will miss the beta, V1 sucks.
I will try to remember today, the last day of a fun Erepublik.
Stupid trivia…I see you guys just ignored my petition
So how about fixing all of those hacked accounts instead?
I also hope that in V1, there’s a new and improved newspaper sytem
well well well, it’s finally time for V1 to be released. Honestly i liked the BETA version better and even though i do not exactly approve of V1 and many of its functions, i appreciate the time you, the erepublik team, have put into it.
I hope you also have a better war system.. I’m assuming yes vto all my uestions as you’ve said you;’ve changed the code nearly 100%
You guys are awesome!
I guess they closed it a little early, but was just some hours so they can do it at a ‘normal speed’ to not create more bugs than the ones that will appear, :P…, you need calm to do that big work,
Heh, good luck, software rollouts are always a PITA.
And I hope the problems with hacking we had today will get resolved
Only problem I had with v1 was the insane difficulty it takes to break the resistance wall.
That honestly needs to be reduced to something more realistic and relative to city size or something
- 10.000 hours is the total amount of work for creating the specs, design, developing and testing. Not included the brainstorming fights we had.
- around 40 km walked by George within the office
- 2 team members broke up with their girlfriends because they spent most of the time at the office.
Lol….
THANKS AND GOOD BYE BETA VERSION!!!
good luck
Finaly! I trust you, admins, this will be a good V1
im so sorry that 2 of your members broke up with their girlfriends! hope they find a better one!
also i wish it worst doing all of these hard works
cant w8 to test the real one!
good luck
Good Job!
Good job and good luck!
Good job, i thought it was on 14th october, so much better
May we have a more specific time/date that the site will be back up?
I don’t think this should be rushed in the first place.
Nice article! It got me realy curios about v1. Altough i’ve already seen it:)
And your idea about that Quiz is still stupid.
Site will be up tuesday.
Good work, devs.
6 days according to Bible, 2 according to Harry Potter, and some billion more according to science
I hope those devs who broke up had a choice not to work in the nights.
can i have the phone number of the two ex-girlfriends?
“The real world might have been created in 6 days but”
lol wut?
You are indefatigable
You seem to forget that its the 13th in a few hours, or in Romania its in one hour (?).
They may have started out a hour or something early but its really nothing to react over.
Devs:
I think that you should have listened to the thoughts about the Trivia and delayed the V1 for a short time, but its not always easy. I, and I think the whole community, appreciate your hard work.
Thanks,
Flammbar
Thanks for giving us a great game. We enjoyed all this time but now… Welcome V1!!!
Great work admin! ^_^
You guys have put more work and effort into this then I could have ever Imagined. I thank you for your committment, your drive, and your passion for this game that we all do love to play. I know you may not have got it all perfect(trivia), but noone could have. i know you are working for us and to better the game. I will stay with you guys through V1
Thank you all for the hard work, you arn’t thanked enough.

-They may have started out a hour or something early but its really nothing to react over-
Maybe it is because all the hacked accounts just before they shut erepublik down. Many people who tested V1 were infected and lost wellness and gold/currency. I hope this will be reverted, since privacy and security is one of the most important parts of a (web)game.
will our money, gold, and company carry over?
Good Job guys!
Great job on all of the hard work put forth into the creation of V1 admins. I think that it’s something that needed to happen one day or another. The improved scripts will allow for easier and faster fixes and additions to the game than the Beta version would have ever allowed. I for one approve of the switch and look forward to the new version.
See you on the other side
I was planning on putting this in my paper, but since it’s down, I’ll put it here:
We are at the dawn of a new era. Where we will go from here is all up to us. We have had good times and bad times, but we must now willingly go forth and enter the unknown. The admin have given us the tools we need, and now we need to use them. Perhaps some of us will be unhappy with V1 (My petitiong seems to have been ignored, and I am perfectly happy with V1), but it will be a new adventure, or more correctly, the same world but one with unknown possibilities.
I wish you all the best of luck in this, the “new” new world.
Sincerely,
Leo Ruby
Awesome
Congratulations, admins. Although many people are putting defects and complaining, you did a great job for us addicted to erepublik. hehehe.
Regards,
Sparta Kratos.
I appreciate the hard work that you guys had in V1 but you should listen to all “oldschool” players when they say that the trivia must be removed (and im not even gonna talk about the war module lol). Oh and another thing.. you guys are trying to make profit from this game and im not talking about buying GOLD. I’m talking about the All Features Unlockable..
Honestly I thought that V1 would be great but i had a had a disappointment I miss Beta already ;_;
Per Lev : Mentre postavo sul tuo articolo si è spento il mondo….Ci rivediamo in v1.
Cu @ v1!!
Great Job Guys!
v1 is finally here…
Thanks for the very time you spend for our fun!!!
P.S.
Could you go faster?
XD
What happened? Like with all those hacked accounts? Greece’s President was hacked. I was forced to buy most of his companies to keep them in contact. And I also hear alot of the other country presidents got hacked to. WHo was it? Why?
Good Job Admin, I look forward to checking it out
Really going to hate being on holyday just the week you release it.
I said it a few months after I started in this…the advertise for Erepublik should say “time consuming and addictive”
Thanks a lot for the great job done! Keep it up. ^^
I hope you’ll fix the hacked accounts when releasing V1, or else there will be a shitload of things to do later.
Thanks for all the hard work and everything… I guess it has to be hard to satisfy us
Gee, sure there are multiaccounters here.
Also, DO NOT KNOW IF WANT.
If at all possible you guys need to issue a press release with a massive pie chart explaining how silly this game is.
Also, you guys should release a YouTube video of the whole development team doing the Truffle Shuffle.
Thank you for gracing the Internet with your… ahem… quality programming.
Very impressive, very well written. Good job Cristi!
Please if you are going to put a test for work and train, put in SPANISH for all of the countries that speak this idiom!
It is going to be very difficult transalte all in 20 seconds!!
Please, think in South America and Spain
anticipating tomorrow.
Please provide more screenshots before Tue, even sample pages — we need to be prepared to play the new game
Good Bye Beta , Welcome V1.
Thank`s for all the effort you make to give us a great game.
At first I was as happy as a child from changes.
Then I saw minuses of new changes.
Small payments should be both in gold and in local currency (part should go to the Budget) and quizzes are in such a place that they are totally out of keeping.
Wow, awful lot of work. You guys have a tough job. Still, too bad V1 is released on a day of school. I never did play this game and never heard about it until I saw it on a site, and wow, did it seem good. You guys sure did a lot to make this game popular. Great job! Keep the work up!
Yo escribiré en español, parece que nadie se atreve. Los admin tienen oficinas en Madrid!. Quiero saber como puedo conocer más información sobre las APIs…hasta ahora es todo un misterio. Todos hablan de muchas cosas de V1, pero sobre las APIs nuevas no encuentro nada ¿donde hay información?
Good Bye Beta Welcome V1. Great job to all ADMIN, cant wait till V1 is up and I can do my best to continue making my country and our Alliance the best that we can be.
Wow they aren’t kidding. The trivia thing sucks.
And V1 is an entirely different game than Beta, so take taht for what you will.
También quisiera saber cuándo son las votaciones de partido, ¿son el 15 de octubre o el 15 de noviembre? (Tuput dimision).Gracias.
hi to all erepublik team i hope to quickly see v1
and now i am still wating
good job
Good luck administrators, you will be remembered by history as the creators of the best online game ever… But the trivia is a horrible idea, its the worst way you could think of how to screw up this amazing game.
I don’t believe. You said 13, not 12 15:00.
We couldn’t work, copy our inventory, money, etc.
Too bad.
I dont understand, you said that will close the website all the 13th, but you did it all the 12th, and the 13th will be closed too? so 48 hours without eRepublik right?
is it true you cant donate anymore
I hope you change your mind about the questions for work and train.
A lot of people are going to leave the game because of them.
They dont speak english very well, and if you translate them, the questions still wrong.
For example, how many time the last four presidents of Argentine…? Our 2 last president have his job for more than 4 years…not less than 1 year…
here is 3:00pm ¬¬
The Real world was obviously made in more than six days. Don’t foist your religious beliefs on us.
the quiz are extra.good luck
say my sorry to the guys who broke with his girlfriend when finishing V1 … cool!!! voted!!!
ROFL
V1 sucks
The only thing I dislike is the downtime D:
Ah well, we have to suffer so it all might become better! And I’m sure it’s getting a lot better!
hi dear friends
my english i not good ! but i want to say :
Bravoooooooo
thank you very mouch
i dont now what can i see in V1 but i know V1 is very good because you do youre best
i am waiting for it and i try to help you as i can
thanx a lot again!

Tettoot…wrong answers, PRoductivity null !!!
You mention how much testing you have done. It is great tht you did this but I’am very dissapointed that yet again you gave an advantage to some players and countries (Romania to be more specific).
If you wanted to test you could have choosen people, who are not in the front line of the game. I do not know why Alex Craciun, who is the former president of Romania, member of the current Governemt, and owner of a couple of companies, got to test the game. It seems to me that all players are equal, but some are more equal than others. There are 4000 people in Romania, why have you choseen people who are involved in the decisions of a country. This way I think you are offering favours to some countries and some players.
Really good , but some of the features have to be reinstated:
1. Mayors/governors very necesary
2. 10 slots limit sucks
3. Od interface needed
Bring it on, baby!!! Por fin tenemos V1!!!
Finally the V1! yeahhhhhh. And I cann’t help you. Maybe in the next versions. Thanks for all, and I hope that the V1 come with lotf of amazing hours.

Good job. Being a programmer I know all about the effort required for something like this.
I just wish we had more info on what is coming. I have alot of questions that I never got answers to and depending on how those are handle it could be a good first few days of V1 or a nightmare trying to sort everything out.
Thank you very much
This is for all of you who can’t see the obvious.
They said the 14th would be the first day of Erepublik V1 not that they would start implementing the V1 changes on the 14th.
So that’s why they started on the 12th, because these things take time.
And for people who also can’t read properly…it was also said that they would only START on the 13th, not the 12. Hence the confusion.
what do I learn first, english language, the history of Japan parliement, or british settlement in western australia?
Unbanned me.. i`m the agent.. diplomatic immunity
So they discovered it may take more time than they thought it would. It’s not like they changed their minds and said, “Hey lets make an beat em’ up instead of a strategy game
Thanks erepublik team…
Awesome
Agradecidos, y salud y fortuna en esta nueva fase. Pero ademas de las 10.000 horas que han dedicado a la nueva versión del juego, no hubiese sido mala idea haber dedicado un par mas de horas a traducir el cumunicado. No vean lo que me a costado entenderlo, y no seré el unico.
i have a bad feeling about this
welcome to new world at V1
let’s we take a book on left and a gun on right arm’s
to many question about geografi so confused on my
but saluttt to erepublik team to make improvement in this game
let’s make the real world rock with this game
merdeka bung
Don’t Be Tired
“- 2 team members broke up with their girlfriends because they spent most of the time at the office.”
It’s SO Bad
i SOLACE 
Counting down…
well, it’s nice we going to v1
but i don’t see any new documentation in erepublik wiki
can someone give me the link please
What about the hacked accounts? What’s being done about that?
Trivia? Find something funnier and clever, please.
i have a feeling that the new erepublik will by beter.
Hello,
Any updates about the progress?
14th is getting closer
Thnx,
Dorel
thanks for admin…
thamks for erepublik citizen…
thanks for Indonesian Defensive Socialist…
thanks for Erepublik Indonesia…
Viva La Erepublik!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally. But since do I do to play to the new version?
Awwww. I managed to be free for ‘in a few hours’ and I’m free for the 15th (when it was), but if my friends are right and the wall comes down tomorrow afternoon I’m going to miss out…
Keep up the good work?
Well good but…TRIVIA IS STUPID!!!
I think that it is a good idea but why can’t we play today
Thank You
Welcome V1
Woohoo !! Good Job eRepublik Staff ! You did a great job, can’t wait to see its result
Its a honor to be part of this project!
i check it every 30 min
we are waiting for your magic!
please show it as soon as possible
Wow! Cool! Thank you admins/scripters for the v1
I have my brithday today
Happy birthday to me hahaha.
By the way… you launch v1 on 14 of October… one day after my birthday
are u guys all here still? looks like the serctuity code got wrost lol can we grt it in two colors? i cnt see it im color disabled
“the advertise for Erepublik should say ‘time consuming and addictive’”
Totally agreed Meiko! I was told yesterday that I am a junkie… I hope V1 brings a whole new dimension of time wasting! But, why, oh why did eRepublik have to be down on my day off???
So what do the hacked V1 get as a bonus
lol just joking. the fact that I tried V1 before everybody else was great.
but seriously I lost quite alot of money due to hacking. Do I get it back in V1? :/
Can’t wait for the new release of the version. Hope that the new version has much more posts in the company so that people can be involved and earn more money in the game for other useful purposes.
@ice_freeze
Press the refreshbutton. It has a green,yellow and a red background
@admins
I forgot to say good luck
Hopefully and probably the vulnerability will be fixed after V1 is implemented
what time is it?? 00:00 14oct ??? someone.. answerme pls..
As long as they don’t end up with one another, the two guys who broke up with their girlfriends should be fine!
Why do you call trivia to V1?
I think it’s much better!!!
still its the same color backround and numbers…. how do i get to V1?
Beta is better than the V1, you know they will lose players with this much V1 because that V1 that had lost a lot of resources in beta, the Paracas V1 is the beta for bugs and very little recurços
wait…. what are you guys like icefreeze talking about. I don’t see anything except this blog.
Beta is better!! in the V1 e can´t see my gold/money/food etc…
beta is better for few things.
trivia in this game is not objective for global game.
I can`t wait anymore too see it !!!
El trivial es algo inservible para los usuarios que no sepan inglés. Es bastante dificil tratar de comprender la pregunta con una cuenta atrás. Además los acentos y letras especiales como la “ñ” no se ven correctamente. Esperamos con urgencia una versión multilenguaje.
———————————————-
The trivial is unusable for users who do not know English. It is quite difficult to understand the question with a countdown. The accents and special letters like “ñ” does not display correctly. We expect an urgent multilanguage version.
I’m glad to see v1 coming, but You should told us that we cant do anything in game today.
I wanted to change my money (buy a weapon), give few gifts and now I’m stuck with full wallet and inventory.
Mejor esperaré la V2, que acepta las ñ y las tildes, un mundo multilenguaje, no solo el lenguaje anglosajon, lenguaje de los barbaros del norte…
How do I get to V1?
Or
How do you all know what V1 is like and stuff?
am i missing something here?
Most people ended up accessing the temporary V1 site…
How do I do that… when i type in the link im stuck here at the blog
me too
Congratulations! Good luck with the rest of stuff that needs to be done or improved.
“Around 40 km walked by George within the office”
That’s a good sport, might help for beach football
hi
Countdown… about 5 hours, 40 mins here in the U.K.
thanks… and im waiting…
How do you see the V1 site? A few Q&A:
1.)How much gold will it cost to make a company/party now?
2.) Will there be other ways to get gold?
3.) Will all your money+ items transfer to V1?
Thanks if you can help me out
Oops, forgot another question:
Will you have to make a new account?
I lsat posted as Matthew if your confused
I forgot my password.. I’ll still be signed in though, right?
‘Cos Sign in always is always ticked. I hope I don’t have to start again and even worse.. have to wait till the 21st! If that’s the case, I’m quitting E-Republik. I’m not waiting 8 days and having to start again!
Matthew, the V1 will be available in a few hours.
1. 20 gold
2. The old players with some level (based in experience points)will have unlimited invitations, but the people who joins with your invitations need to reach some level, only then you will receive the gold.
3. yes
I’ll be here on 14:10:2008 00:01 … you better be here too or else…
See you guys and girls in the real eWorld.
together we ride…..
Is the V1 gonna make us have to start our charcters from scratch again? Not thats it that much of a biggie, just wondering.
question: it will be released at 0:01 tomorrow, but what time zone is that for?
4 hours, 2 mins in the U.K
Time remaining : 12 hours
Good luck and thank you for everything Erepublik team!
100 year latter!!!
we are waiting for V1 !
http://www.erepublik.com/parts/EN/Profile_user_secondary.jpg
Gives a rough view of what Version 1 is gonna be like. Hope it tides you over the 3 and a half hours we have to wait.:) Thank me later othe pics there too
I have GMT+2 time
it mean, that for me, launch of V1 will be 15th october 9.00? :D:D:D offff
V1 only be online at 8:00Am GMT
GMT+2 it’s 14 oct 10:00 am
The time zone eRepublik uses is PST (America’s West Coast).
if you hard work you can suprise we
Not mi then
i will miss beta.only good thing is experient points for elections!also travia is suck!i want beta back
OH! WHAT A HISTORICAL TIME IS IT!
Well here in eastern Quebec; it’s 3:50 ATM so 3:00 am will be the launching date for V1 here
I guess it’s the 13′th in some countries and 12′th in others?
I hope Croatia will be included in V1. I never forgave admins for not including it in Beta version.
Question:
What is your favorite game version?
1. eRepublik Beta;
2. eTrivial Porsuit V1;
I pick option number one.
I’m from the U.K. E-Republik V1 comes here at 8:00 am does it?
Yes Matthew! For GMT it’s gonna be 8:00 am.
Well, this is it, isn´t it???
The V1 version coming tomorrow!!1
hurry up and launch already
Lega Nerd was here.
it has been 24 hours already since the page went off the air, what happened!!!!!
It should be coming out tomorrow. Don’t forget, beta testers, that we did our part, too. May the creators of eRepublik never forget us.
D&F too was here
You guys suck, even Aquila et Gladius was here
@it has been 24 hours already since the page went off the air…
It went offline early, probably because of hacked accounts. The deadline is 9am CET time so far. That is 0.00 gametime.
They should also be cleaning-up multi accounts and adding new security. Might take longer depending on how much they need to correct.
very cool, i saw it not to great but i might be the only person who likes how we really have to work together in the new war system other than the indestructable wall its pretty cool
anyway i have a feeling you guys will be able to clean the bad stuff out easy with the new code
good luck and thanks for the work

When we are finally able to log in to V1, will it be tomorrow or yesterday? I’m rather confident that it won’t be today. If it turns out to be yesterday, I would like to predict that V1 will be released today. Otherwise, I’ll have to settle for losing a full day altogether. Sorta like those week long parties in Vegas that only last 6 days. You just lose a day someplace.
i predict about 10 messages that its 12:01 and they cant log in. Prolly because they forgot the game clock seems to run on PST
they didnt even say by who’s time…its already 14th in many places..including romania..they basicly said nothing….
They’ll release it in 3 hours. They’re basing it on the International Date Line.
where is V1?????
kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
lets go!!!
If anybody actually decided to pay attention, they would’ve noticed that v1 is coming October 14th, 00:01 eRepublik time. Which is Pacific Standard Time zone for those lacking any sort of www.google.com abilities whatsoever.
2:36h to go
*DING* *DING* *DING* HAMBAGA WINS
He was right, Oct. 14th 00:01 (PST). Because of time zones it appeared the message was released on the 12th, but it was meant for the 14th.
^woops meant for the 13th
omg i cant wait 2 hours!!!!
فقط یک ساعت و هشت دقیقه تا ورژن یک مونده
Yes! Only like one hour to go! Thank you to the Erepublik team for making such a great game for everyone! This is the exact kind of game I’ve been dreaming of for so long. Thanks!

PST?! Why does everything have to be in my time zone? I was expecting it to be in the erepublik servers’ time in Switzerland.

a quick question, in 30 mins, will V1 just come on if you have the Beta link? Thanks 
V1 still work now
“2 team members broke up with their girlfriends because they spent most of the time at the office.”
So much sacrifice………
I think that it means you can play as long as you’re already a member. You have to wait till the 21st to register. Is that right?
25mins i hardly await the V1
Good work guys and get a better GF’s maybe some that could work with you :p

404: That page doesn’t exist!
Now you’re wondering, “what do I do now!?!”. Well…
during searching the marketplace
Where is my gold I had on the market? Is it vanished?
What the heck. My validation email expired/was invalid one minute after being sent it, I keep getting a ‘please fill out captcha challenge’ whenever I try to make a new account, and I cant even send a bug report.
Kind of getting tired of it failing, to be honest.
carbon yes I have that problem too ! :S
GEE YOU ROCK
An ultra-slow page, too many friggin options too many friggin polls…
A barbarity to buy food!
FOOD!
Great! You guys rule!
in the past we clicked 3 or 4 times to do everything
now we click 15 or 20!!!!!!!!!!
Guys, thanks for feedback. We are working on those issues and in the next hours we will resolve much of the problems that appeared.
Complete disaster!
its so slow!
I think it’s about time you guys started paying attention to the forums. Especially since there are reports of hackers.
Site is now down. 404.
