GONNA DOUBLE TEXT IN ALL CAPS AS SOMEONE PASSIONATE ABOUT GAMES THAT DOES TANGENTIALLY WORK IN THE INDUSTRY AND SAY IN ANGRY ALL CAPS THAT THE BEST WAY TO GET PEOPLE INVESTED IN YOUR GAME IF YOU WANNA PROFIT ON MICROTRANSACTIONS AND SUBSCRIPTIONS YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO YOUR PLAYERS AND FIND OUT WHAT PAY MODELS AND SCALES THEY FIND REASONABLE, AND LISTEN TO WHAT THEY EXPECT IN TERMS OF GAME AND COMMUNICATION QUALITY IN RETURN. REEEEEEEE.

I still think it's weird to make a change like this and I can't understand why they would do this. I do know that the owner of the site (Sweetasnuts) like to mess with us (check his posts in the forum and you'll know what I mean). So I suspect him of doing this just to stir things up.

But since nobody knows for sure and Team BImbo went completely silent all of a sudden we can only guess why. But if this update stays like this then I am going to stop spending money at least, maybe even quit. It takes a lot of fun out of the game.
lol i was right, this site is just a social experiment
LOL You are so right :)

I agree 100% with TewDea. Myself and many other players are feeling less and less comfortable spending money on this game. If these basic procedures were put into place, it would remedy my discomfort.

I'm SUPER happy that this was addressed! And it was taken into account on how it would change and impact the game. Nicely said and done FWN

I agree with those who have pointed out the unfairness of these percs and that now certain states are more favored than others.  Since I can’t change it at the moment, I will choose to look at it another way.  I can say that any achievement I have earned is more appreciated!   I can say that despite being an outsider I am doing well.  If it is the policy to give others percs, I won’t let that hold me back!  BIMBO POWER!!!!!!!

One other thing:  In a way, ALL Bimbos are considered “outsiders” somewhere — I guess it’s easy to forget that!

I feel like since there's already tabs for the wiki and forum a blog announcing changes that are either upcoming or already implemented wouldn't be too difficult.

I had kind of assumed that there was one that I just couldn't find but we actually have to figure that all out on our own after the fact, huh?

Really hoping they roll back all of this and give the benefits to people who voted, if anything.

probably plenty of people have said it already (in which case count this as a vote for what they said!!) but if they could manage to get the perks to just the folks who voted for the winner... n maybe a tiny reward for voting in the pb election in general, that'd be pretty much perfect, in my humble onion

I agree with everything that has been said. Elections serve to do the best for everyone, not just a group

Honestly...it makes me want to stop playing. I'm still very new to the site and I understand that perks are given to paying members. I can deal with that and it is understandable but because that state won they get perks that no one else is being given...it doesn't seem fair. Considering that some of the people who voted for the current Prime bimbo didn't vote for the candidate in their state because they related to that elected official's political propaganda for a lack of better words only to be excluded after the election... feels like a slap in the face honestly. 

I absolutely agree with this comment. It's bothering me that players themselves are thinking which candidate is going to initiate most beneficial changes inside the community but then there's this unfair treatment due to updates or non-openly discussed agreements that puts us against each other instead of sticking together and making the most of this game. Just like in real life voting and engaging in politics is being "rewarded" so should it be here. And I get it that this issue is possibly being for the sake of the challenges and keeping players competitive but it's definitely contraproductive when you notice that you're not making any progress and your opinion is not being considered.
