I wonder if it is possible to have the function to block oneself for a specific time.
This would be really helpful for players like me who are so addicted to this game while they actually have important things to do. |
Not needed. You can, either:
- make a random password, write it on a piece of paper and give it to your mom/dad/brother/grandma/friend/dog for keeping
- stop playing the game if you have important things to do instead of making yourself cheap excuses to be online suggesting how to block one's self when you know it's not gonna happen :) |
| I wonder if a selfblock would help in that case, when you actually have the choice to unblock yourself, too. |

umm, I guess this holds true IF it doesn't violate any game rules relevant to it, in any way;)

#4 Well, considering you only give them a piece of paper with some random characters on it for the only purpose of keeping, it should be no problem.
#3 Unless you you could do something like "block myself for 3 months with no self-unblocking until then", which would of course mean having plenty of people posting things like "please unblock my other account, I blocked it for 72 years by mistake" (that will contracting the purpose of the self-block thing as well), it is indeed pretty much useless as it would provide nothing more than what clicking logout and then logging in already provide. |
Thanks for suggestions.
What I want is only a selfblock with conditions of unblock. The conditions of unblock might be: automatically unblock after the specific time, or, pay some other goods for the unblock before the specific time, i.e., diamonds (real money).
Also, it would also be fine, at least to me, to have some "admission fee" to enter the selfblock. |

Interesting idea about selfblock for some limited time at some cost.
I think many of us have problems in real life because of this game :)
I'm walking zombie thinking only about "enroll, enroll, ..." :)
This is something similar to the "Lost" television series where you have to push button every 108 minutes :)

I hope there is a page for a user to select how long s/he likes to be away.
After that, the account will be automatically unblock.
If one wants to get back before that, s/he should pay real money through a link on the page associated with the acocunt. I think 1 diamond per day is reasonable. For example, if i blocked myself for 30 days but I want to unblock myself immediately, i have to pay 30 diamonds. If 9 days before the automatic unblocking, i have to pay 9 diamonds. Because the resources associated with my acount are not accessible, i have to pay it by real money.
I would also like suggesting that the page showing the account is self-blocked may be accessible to anyone, and the money can be paid by anyone too. |
One clarification,
Even a account can be unblocked by anyone (by paying money), the account should only belong to the original user. |
