What the hell happened... Reply to this Post
Reply with Quote

B!H is dead? Dusty, dead! There are few players in Frontier Town, let alone Indian Trading Post. I remember a time when there were a few parlors open here and there, gangs were in huge competition with eachother... and now, well. Here we are.

What has happened in the last few years?

Well, Triplo has made it a bit difficult to find the links for purchasing a wrangler pass thus the amount of "bonafide" players has dwindled. Add to that the amount of Sheriffs on patrol with a good mix of people who steal accounts, attempt to hack the game, and it just isn't cost effective to support it beyond what they already do. It exists as a remnant, left to die on it's own accord. In a sense, players killed it. Now it slowly bleeds out.

I actually still have some faith in this game. If they started paying more attention to the game and did a few stuff differently.. more adverts, more updates.. the game will eventually start paying itself off and won't die.

Like the other three rings games this game is a game where you have to think and act fast. The best part is that every game/scenario you get into is different.. so you can't really get bored if your doing something new everytime.. also its against real players not AI which can become boring. ALSO HAS A VERY GOOD SOCIAL STRATOSPHERE..

If the right team gets behind this game and pushes it for 6months HARD, this game within a year will be back to it's former glory :)

Happy almost birthday ^^
Yeah I joined up on March 9th, 2007. I'll give you a little piece of information about myself, I was 11 then. (yes, I broke the rules! :O)
Soon enough I met a fellow Tenderfoot like myself, he introduced me to his in-game 'beloved' (who I still talk to occasionally) and we had a close-knit group of about 5-6 cowpokes. Then the idiot got banned, now its just me and her on Whirled -.- pisses me off really.

youneke, I praise your optimism, I really do. But it's a very naive opinion, no offense <3
Dont get me wrong, I enjoyed the games. I was really good, but youve never seen me on the highscores cuz I struck a bad deal once. Then people stopped playing ranked, then stopped playing altogether.
B!H was something more like a social chat really, from my perspective anyway. Everyone had such wild imaginations, thats what made it fun :)
I did come across Judy, and Youneke (Brown? I think), here and there in random parlors. Usually the most-filled ones -.-
Youneke you talk about B!H as an RTS (real time strategy for you newbs), and capitalize on its social aspect.
I would see it the other way around. Mostly social, with some minigames on the side.

I think that B!H is dead, and any hope of bringing it back would be an entirely different game altogether, completely revamped. And free goddammit. I got lucky off that gold pass. Just look at B!H now, the graphics are from 2006, and some the game itself gives problems to PCs that try to go into high resolution, so its forced to look even worse. There's absolutely no interest in the game from anyone else because its popularity was something more of like a cult following, hardly anyone knows about it.

If the game, or the essence, of B!H is to be saved. Then it's going to have to be resurrected as a better version of itself, clean slate, new advertising, renewed interest, etc.

Which, honestly, isnt going to happen. So I say let it die. Im actually kinda glad a handful of people post in the forums still. But I say this should be wiped out too, B!H isnt even on OOO site, if you havent noticed. The creators themselves seemed to have forgotten.

I JUST CHANGED THE TOPIC! Reply to this Post
Reply with Quote

Today is the 6th of February 2012.
I joined on the 6th of February 2007.

5 years on the game, 6 months of that time was actually enjoyable.


I am absolutely bored right now so I'm going to write stuff:

I am 18 years old, living in Australia, born in Netherlands. I currently am working on producing a feature film amongst my friends and hoping to pursue a career in the media employment line sometime in the near future.

Goodbai.

I think that after the Sheriffs went to Puzzle Pirates exclusively and more and more bugs and errors started to occur, people realized the game was going to crash. Even if it didn't crash with all the hackers that used to exist that it became ridiculous. When I created the fictional sheriff named 'Ramson', I helped more people than the sheriffs did in a year's time. But sadly I got banned due to people claiming I hacked them and asked for there password when I had done no such thing. I helped get the game up for a long time, getting more than 100 people joining per month, but again as no sheriffs were there and the hackers replaced them, no one wanted to take the risk to purchase a Wranglers pass. It's a shame conlcuding from the fact I loved this game for a long time, and wen't to see what had happened over the last couple years even after I knew what the result would be. I will be playing as RamsonB for a little bit, as I just want to see if I can see some people I used to know.
