and suggestions

We have some changes on auction. In my opinion, the idea was good, but the effect is worse. We can find many bugs and i write about few of them.
Companies - Now you can look for all or you can choose few industries and quality. If ou choose q1,q2 and iron you will get all iron q1 and iron q2 comapnies.
Bugs: You can't search for Q5 comapnies.
Equipments - Now you can look for all or you can choose few qualities, parameters and slots.
For example: If you chose q5 pants and avoid and critic. You will get all q5 pants that have avoid or critical.
You can't choose option that you look for items that have only critical and avoid or double avoid.
Bugs: It's shows only 1 page of searching. If you want see other pages you need to add on end of link &page=2. Insted "2" you can use other numbers.
Special Items - Now if we select Pain Dealers, bandage or camuflage we will gonna see all kind of them. Before update we was able to choose what kind of PD or other item we wanted to search. It's very bad change.
Now we can create polls for target group. You can choose citizenship of players that can vote in your poll or also poll only for mu members.
It looks like this (poll for polish citizens in mu with ID:7):
I think dev should also add option with polls only for party members.
It's still in beta mode and have many bugs, but you can test it already on primera. For now you don't need to have premium account to use it. You can find it under this link: http://primera.e-sim.org/premiumMessages.html
How it works:
1. You have all messages with 1 player together (5 per page).
2. Your msg are on dark backround and other on light.
3. Now you know if somebody readed your msg. Black enelope means "readed" and orange "not readed"
4. On right you have list of player that you ever send or recive msg.
5. If you want reply you just click on table "reply" above all msgs.
Bugs and problems:
1. It's to often send "double msg". It means that if you click only one "send" it will sometimes send it twice in same time.
2. Rest bug on picture like:
notifications do not disappear if you not refresh page.
width of the window in which pops up a message is diffrent for premium and standard accounts and other in previev view of premium msg. Player that recive msg can see something diffrent that we send.
the tables does not match to the window.
you can't see msg with all players, but only with last around 100 players. (it's problem if you send brodcast grup msg to mu or party)
Block unwanted messages from players you added on "black list". On "black list" you put ID or names players that you want to block from sending you any msg. I think we got many spam that we don't want to see it in future or we have some player that we don't like.
What could be blocked:
only private messages
or aslo could disappear only for you
chat messages
shouts
articles
comments in articles
from "black listed" players
I think if somebody is officer in mu or leader of party he sometimes need to send broadcast msg to all members. That could make troubles if we have in MU 50-100 members and we send them every few days, becouse it will give us many spam in our "mail box" and hard to find important msg that we send few days ago. Also we can't delete them.
My suggestion is to group msg in 3 categories:
Private Messages - that you send manualy to one player
Military Unit Broadcast Messages - that we send automaticly
Party Broadcast Messages - that we send automaticly
Please also share your opinion in the comments.

Selling Gold! (10 years ago)
About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
