Any nostalgic managers still playing OFM?
-
Life is treating me well so far, thanks man.
I tend to agree with you. It gives new and active players a chance to be at the top without competing with managers who have been around since day dot. A custom ranking for those managers that have been around for some time would be amazing... May be something that's based on time playing OFM or used to be in first place on the rankings?
At the end of the day it is a business so they have to do what's right for the business. A little bonus here and there for the managers that play the game wouldn't go astray either. It would make for a nice addition to anyone's profile. May be even adding a 'Legendary' or 'Champion' category to the achievements list that could be purely based on customised achievements awarded directly by the staff (and not automatically obtained so people don't have empty slots in their achievements)? I reckon that would work better too.
Are there any other old school managers out there?!
@gary-gomes Completelly agree with you on everything. I even suggested couple times those things couple times, but sadly it looks like they are not profitable for them
As for other "old school" guys.. I kinda lost touch to activity of others as I dont visit forums that often anymore and I play normal leagues for my pure fun so really dont know much about other guys.

I would not consider myself an 'old school manager' as I have never been active in the OFM community, although I already play OSM on the Dutch version since 2007.
With my OFM account I'm part of a really old crew: Kanarifuglene. You may still remember them.. This was a really active and succesful crew back in the days, but nowadays they are what we call in Dutch a "museum crew".

@majstor-matt That sucks man, ah well. I play the game now purely for fun and to make sure my crew still stands, haha. However inactive it may be. I was actually planning on releasing a forum completely external to OSM where managers could come together to discuss tactics and what not. I had it planned with a couple of old school managers but having lost interest in the game a couple of years ago that idea went down the drain quick smart. I actually still have the forum on my hosting account come to think of it!
@Silvester-J I actually do remember your manager name and remember Kanarifuglene very well! They were an epic crew and were in 1st spot for so many years. What happened to everyone there? I can only assume some of the managers grew out of the game and became inactive?
Great to see you guys still there though! Keep up the good work. I have kept my crew, the OFM Dream Team going all this time since I created it too. Crew number 59 judging by my link.

I don't know anyone of you, friends. I play this game since 2013, but first came on the forums around an year later. Anyway...
I am fan of the coins system which replaced the old ticket system, but this is just one of the few things which has been improved during the last years.
Those old forums... when crewmates were spending amazing time together and other managers from other crews were visiting your crewpage. When you arrange a crew battle and before the real start of the battle it has already started between the managers on the forum hah. The crew forum was like a home for every crew, something really special in my oppinion which made osm a totally different game than the games released by some other compaigns etc.
In fact I like more the older design of the game, it was more friendly, I don't feel really comfortable with the new one, am I outdated haha?!
The chat in the league.... come on, that was one of the best parts of the game or even the best one and when asking somtime about I don't remember who told me this but I was told that thanks to the lack of the crew chat there won't be seen any rude language between managers in the same league. Ridicilous, because if someone wants to insult you, he will do it in the chat anyway
Life was easier back then...
Be happy for this moment! This moment is your life.

There are of course still play the nostalgia Manager.

Life was easier back then...@alexander-6666 If they kept things modern like they are now but left the crew chat and forum functions alone, this game would be absolutely amazing. They wouldn't have lost such a huge number of managers because of it and I feel a lot of the nostalgic crews from the past would still be actively playing, at least a lot more than they are now.
Unfortunately change happens, that's just the nature of the beast. Decisions wouldn't have been taken lightly in my opinion and the majority decided to go ahead with the changes.
That doesn't mean that we can't make OSM what it used to be to the best of our abilities though, right?
@OFMSüperStar I don't recognise your username at all unfortunately. Did you have another username years ago?

@gary-gomes Other users do not have to start a new step my game has only still ongoing nostalgia for former executive managers to the game.

@ofmsüperstar I don't really understand what you're trying to say... Judging by your profile, you have only been a manager of OSM for 6 days. Did you have another manager name before or have you just started the game?

OFM Dream Team, Upcoming Stars, OFM Greats, Fearless Aces, Kanari...Good old days. Nice to see you here @Gary-Gomes. I hope your crew will rise again.
Don't ask me who the hell are you

Thanks a lot mate. I do hope my crew can last a little bit longer.

In Fearless Aces, almost every nation has a member in crew. The chat on the crew forum was great. I do remember Special Ben, Freddy Yanto , Lucio and some others. I really enjoyed in. Ben did profile photos with an aces and girls. I liked them a lot. Pure art
You and Kolos brought us together. I never forget those days. Good luck in your OSM career I do hope in future we will meet again in same crew. -
@Kaiser-Brian-Clough That's for sure! Thank you very much! I didn't even notice that myself but it is an awesome achievement to be a part of this game for such a long time. I remember when I was a Judge, Administrator, Community Manager and Moderator; all roles of which I am thankful to have been offered during my time here on the game.
Those managers are stand out names as well! Special-Ben especially. He was in the OFM Dream Team for a short period too if I remember correctly.
@Kaiser-Brian-Clough @Majstor-Matt Say, would you guys be open to receiving an invite from the OFM Dream Team? It may just assist in kicking off a new era in our history... It's just an offer, don't feel obliged of course.

@gary-gomes Thanks for the offer mate. I'm honored. But I have already gave my word to another crew. Sorry. I cant accept, for now. In any case, I'll keep it in my mind. Thanks again.
