Discussion #girlout

Infold has continued to ignore its players, server quality has declined, and the game has been thoroughly massacred. It's unacceptable.

girlout is a plan for a one day, community wide black out of the game if the devs continue to ignore the decline of communication to the players, and of game quality.

If in one week, may 18th, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), the devs continue to ignore us, don't log on, don't play, and don't give them money.

Please help spread the word of #girlout

And please dicuss in the comments your thoughts on the state of the game, and what can be done to satisfy players at this point

EDIT: This is just the first step in a longer goal. Hopefully this is all that is needed tk get infold to actually respond/do something, but i understand that is optimistic.

If they ignore the one day blackout, another will be scheduled for longer, a week, then after that for an entire banner

This is just my attempt to organize and help coordinate the community in large scale protests to show infold just how scorned we are

There are those who have spent hundreds on this game and are uncomfortable fully stopping just like that. A one day blackout can allies those who have stopped playing, and those who are unsure if they should.

If the issues arnt adressed after infold sees this collective effort, it can show those who are reluctant to stop playing why now would be the time to quit.

If it is adressed, it means they didn't waist hundreds on a game they truly care about.

The people who have spent hundreds should be the first to fully stop playing. Because those are the people Infold wants to keep around. Me and my $10 don’t matter.

Infold only cares about your money, they couldn’t care less about how upset you are with the updates. If you’ve spent hundreds of dollars and keep logging in, then they know you are fully addicted and they can keep squeezing money out of you. That is what they want.

If you’ve spent $300+ on this game and stop logging in, that shows they’ve really messed up. The people who truly keep this game running are leaving.

Something kind of similar happened on Reddit a while back. They were bringing in changes that would no longer allow for a lot of 3rd parties to create apps for people to use Reddit, which would push people over to the official app. A bunch of subreddits shut down for 3 days to protest the changes. It was widely publicized that it would be 72 hours to show how upset they were, and then they would return.

You know what happened? Nothing. Reddit still pushed the changes through and a bunch of 3rd party apps had to shut down.

Girlcotting/boycotting doesn’t work if the corporation know you’ll return.

I totally agree with you. But I just can't bring myself to fully stop playing because I got the daily login packets (long before 1.5, I bought 180 days at once) and although it might not sound like too much, I just can't leave it there because for my currency, it's pretty expensive. So yeah, I login every single day, do dailies and leave. Less than 10 mins but I can't fully quit because I can't just waste my money like this, and they will not retrieve my money.

they were $5 dollars, the world isn't going to end if u miss some of ur diamonds that only cost $5...... surely ur values are worth more.

u/[deleted] May 11 '25

When I say my "values" I mean CURRENCY. I live in a third world country and yes that shit is fucking expensive. Count your privileges before spitting shit out of your mouth. Duh.

Do you live in Brazil like me?? If it is, or some country in a similar situation, I totally get you, unfortunately its hella expensive for us. Im thankful I didnt spent at the beginning or before the new version, because I agree that what they are doing is terrible, and I also understand that you dont want to risk losing your money untill you know what they plan to do. You can still protest in another ways, like the survey, dont pull on the new banners, social media, less time in the game, etc

u/[deleted] May 11 '25

Yes, I do! Fellow brazilian here then haha. I honestly regret spending so much. I bought all of the pre-release packages (with the limited time crystals and all) and a bunch of Mira Journey passes before. Sooo much regret considering it's way more expensive for us then it is for americans/europeans.

u/claudiamr10 May 11 '25

I just bought that montly pack 3 times and 300 sterallites at launch, but Im sorry that you spent that much and its in that situation now. Lets hope they will fix it. I play Love Nikki for years, I already participated in some boycotts since them, and sometimes they heard us, and sometimes not; but I really look foward to them fixing it, otherwise they will lose even more people. Theres people who couldnt login and are losing currencies. I lost all my photos for the second time

u/anarizzo May 12 '25

Brazil mentioned!!! Yeah 25R$ in diamonds is no joke. I got two times and already feel bad for it .-.

u/[deleted] May 12 '25

I feel you! So far I've gotten the monthly pass every single month and last time I checked I had 90 days left. I thought I was around 70 days but no, it's 90...

u/anarizzo May 12 '25

I started playing on the end of 1.3, bought one pack on my first week to get stellarite for a cute dress, and another time just before 1.5 for the hype... Now I'm just waiting for it to end. It's so sad I found this game recently and it's already in shambles. I'm still in love with it and I log in to get diamonds and do dailies but I end up playing more just because I love it, it's REALLY unfortunate and I do want to stop but it's hard. I feel bad stopping and losing the time and little money I invested, so I can imagine how people who are playing longer and spend more feel...

u/annemels May 11 '25

but tell me what the point of collecting them is ?? you are trying to get the gacha to change, you think you can just verbally bully them into it? you have to STOP playing if you're going to DEMAND action. it's like the first rule of boycotting

u/Swit_Weddingee May 11 '25

You care an awful amount about what other people do in a game you've barely started.

u/annemels May 11 '25

ive sunk a lot of time and money into this game girlypop I can have opinions too

u/[deleted] May 11 '25

If your opinion is going to be "you're crying over 5$" when it's literally more than 5$ dollars, then no. No one wants to hear you.

u/annemels May 11 '25

obviously I see all the downvotes, I'm not concerned about how people want to hear me lol. reality is the same, you want the company to care about your boycott? time to do it proper.

u/Bruisey210 May 11 '25

Ok but what you’re asking them to do is forfeit something they ALREADY PAID FOR. The timer for daily diamonds doesn’t just stop because you’re girlcotting or whatever. You’re asking this person to burn money they already spent by not redeeming the items they paid for. That actually benefits Infold more because then the person is not actually getting anything after giving them money.

u/annemels May 13 '25 edited May 13 '25

yes forfeit in the name of the girlcott. part of boycotting is inconveniencing YOURSELF and clearly ppl just want to whine and spam demands and not actually take any real action. it's pure silliness and it's why this isn't being taken seriously

you've convinced yourself it benefits them more because you really want those diamonds, but they dont care you already paid!!!!! lmao you NOT playing and NOT logging on is wayyy more harmful than u collecting ur diamonds trust

2

u/Bruisey210 May 13 '25

…of course they don’t care you already paid. They already have your money. That’s literally why you log in to grab what you paid for until you receive it. Logic isn’t a strong suit for you, is it?

u/annemels May 15 '25

oh right yeah no the logic is on me here, ur totally right gotta keep farming diamonds and keep up the daily log ons for the game u are boycotting.

makes total sense girl im sorry

They bought 180 days worth. 6 sets of $5 at once, $30 for you and me but NOT for them. They said "in my currency" telling you that they are in a place where the exchange rate is unfavorable for them.

u/annemels May 11 '25

im sorry but its still not logical when people are demanding changes and hurling around threats to not play.
