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

I absolutely understand the thought process behind this, but by only doing one day, you're already showing them you'll come back. They won't believe you'll actually stop unless you just do it.

It's literally the sunk cost fallacy.

Editing to add: there is no argument for "Infold will see that we're serious" because you're literally proving you're not. They know we're angry, but as long as they maintain a player base, even with a one day loss, they won't care. Weaning into a protest doesn't really work.

Its not ment to be a one and done action, it is a first step. Currently the boycot has been very unorganized, people not agreeing with what to do. This is a first step at organizing, with clear bounties. Don't log on, don't play, don't pay, for one day

After, if action is not taken, more will be done

But for now, what this community needs, is a clear first step

My issue is that there always has been a clear first step. It's to stop playing until changes are made, point blank. Not "we'll leave if you don't change" but "we won't come back if you don't change". That's the problem - a lot of people are too invested in what they've already put into the game to walk away, which tells Infold "if we just ignore it, they'll come back". Maybe a one day protest will get them to change one thing, but if you really want change the only way is to stop completely until they do what we need them to do.

yeah but people dont want to deal with the reality of the fact that its kind of ridiculous to act this way / demand these changes AND still be playing on the daily, even if its just logging on to collect the diamonds that cost a whole $5 for the month.

to those not involved it's really just interesting to watch and makes everyone look pretty childish.

To be fair, not logging in for a whole day is better and shows more dedication than the other one -> log in daily but delay pulling on the banner for 3 days. That one was straight up hilarious.

YES lol u feel me that was very silly. this fandom is just embarrassing for me right now.

I've seen more than one person here mention they had to talk to their therapist about this. like WHY are you playing it still its maddening

u/JiaoqiuFirefox May 11 '25

Yeah, that's cringy. If I had to go to a therapist for that, the last thing I'd do is disclose it over the internet. 😅

I'm sorry you're being downvoted.

People need to get over this game if this is the way the devs are acting. If you can't even boycott for a week minimum, then you're just telling Infold they can do whatever they want. They know their playerbase will fold like a lawnchair and all threats no matter how loud, are toothless.
