To me, the solution is very simple -- make noticeable improvements to the site.

You bit off more than you can chew and opened Bimbolands in an extremely unfinished state. Complaining (for the lack of a better word) about money problems now is a bad way to start things. Bimbolands has only been open for two months! Now you're basically blackmailing people into giving you money to keep bimbolands alive and growing.

The fact that this has turned into a pay-to-win game only rubs salt into the wound. Now, if there is anyone who may be able to turn this thing around, they have to pay and hope it's worth it.

exactly. it shouldnt be so much responsibility on us to make bimbolands a success.. i mean how do we know that any money we put into this is actually going toward the site and things that we want on it? everyday that goes by without a word from SweetasNuts is bothering me because in order for us to make this site into something decent we need a strong leader who wants to make a good game and who wants to pay attention to what we have to say. we need to be able to trust the people running this site and so far they havent proven themselves at all :/ i really dont want this site to be a watered down version of miss bimbo where you have to pay to have anything resembling fun.. i know it can be better than that. it has alot of potential because we already have a nice community going right now. there's just too much uncertainty thats not being addressed by those in charge.

I should have went with my gut feeling when they required you pass a test and connect via your facebook. This might seem silly to some, but I feel uncomfortable knowing that the people that run this site have access to my personal facebook where they can get my name and whatnot. I saw how immature and aggressive the mods/people in charge were in the forums. At times, I thought their facebook and MissBimbo was being ran by children. I understood the site was meant to be fun but there's a point when it's not fooling around anymore and you're just being an annoying troll (something I saw often). I saw someone mention if the mods were still unfair -- lets hope they're not, assuming we even get past this version of MissBimbo.

This is really sad, though. There are some really good elements here like these new forums and the dress up system, but we still have broken avatars. Usually I'd have no problem investing into sites like this, but like you, the fact that no one has replied to people's concerns but still have the audacity to talk numbers and back us into a corner by saying the only way this will succeed is if we drop some cash is just too much. I'm still shocked that SweetAsNuts had the nerve to say they invested 10K to get this place up and running, like that was going to guilt trip people into giving money back. I don't know what he thought was going to happen when posting that.

I feel a bit sorry for the people that sank money into this because I highly doubt it's going to make it to the end of the year, if things keep going the way they're going.

I completely agree with everything above.  I'm finding it hard to trust that this is not a scam for money.  We are an established community from miss bimbo and we are all very familiar with SweetasNuts. In fact, he and his team used to post videos on youtube from the miss bimbo HQ office.. It's all very strange that miss bimbo ended and a new site is created with a different name and a different game all together.  Whenever any company asks for money, immediately red flags go up.  I'm having a hard time trusting the fact that SweetasNuts really is who he says he is and that we are not being scammed because we are such an easy target because we know we can trust the miss bimbo name and have poured real money into it in the past.. so what would stop us from giving more money to "Miss Bimbo" 2.0?  I would love to have proof that this really is the same SweetasNuts from miss bimbo... after all, its free to post a video on YouTube and you already have your own channel.. it would be nice to know that we are not being scammed.

The Duchess is right, we should at least have proof that SweetasNuts is who he says he is. i'm sure it would put some of the uncertainty to rest (it wouldnt fix everything but i feel it's needed.) we really need SAN to speak up and address our concerns and confusion, a video would be a good way to do it.

The strange thing is all of us are from Miss Bimbo. We try to return to Miss Bimbo site but get directed here and that's exciting because we think Miss Bimbo is back amd running again!  We take the test and excitedly look around for all the fun stuff we got to do on Miss Bimbo and then we are disappointed to find this site is NOTHING like Miss Bimbo, so of course the majority of players don't return.. this is boring, strange and quite frankly, very offensive because for some strange reason, SweetasNuts thinks we are naive enough to give him our money for a game that doesn't deliver and for the hopes of a game, that we loved, to make its return.  Unfortunately,  that isn't in the plans to happen.  I get that Miss Bimbo was highly controversial and frowned upon because children were playing it and learning (according to the levels) that beauty is what's on the outside and not what's on the inside.  To be beautiful we bimbos have to get breast implants and starve ourselfes to be skinny and find rich men to date.  The game is for adults only and it was fun and humorous.  I don't understand why SweetasNuts won't give us what we want and just tweak the game a bit so it won't be so controversial or set it that only 18+ aged people can join because it is for adults.

i added a comment on his page, but he might not check it so i'm posting it here too.

We need answers from you, SweetasNuts. Things in Bimbolands are beginning to slow down. The forums are very slow lately and people are signing up but not returning because there's very little to do and nothing is being improved or added. People sign up them forget about it because it's not making a good impression on them. We need people to want to stay and play, nobody wants to hang around and wait for something to happen. Your absence is also taking it's toll on Bimbolands, people don't trust you and the staff because you're not around. We need more contact with you in order to trust you enough, to feel secure about giving money to this site. Most people would not pay money for a game that is not complete,  doesn't have an active leader who they can trust, and doesn't have many things to do (they are no games, a lot of the clothing doesnt work on our avatars, and we dont even have eyebrows. it's been about 2 months and that still hasnt been fixed?) We need you to address our issues as soon as you can, because if things keep going like this, the site is going to lose more and more of the few active players we have. When there's not even people to talk to on this site, it's definitely going downhill, fast.

what's the point of this game

so far there's just forums and 'debates.' everyone's hoping that more features will be added asap. 

There's nothing to do on the site except for posting in the forum. Even the hair is not placed properly on my bimbo head and now you're calling us to pay???

im seeing a bit more activity on bimbolands lately, so i feel a bit reassured but still haven't gotten any answers from SweetasNuts.. i just really want this site to be a success, and the only chance there is for that to happen is if people stick around.
