What is your real name and age?
Lauren - 27
Where do you live?
New York, NY
How long have you played Bootleggers?
6 Years
Why did you start playing Bootleggers?
A friend showed me it.
How did you come up with your current username?
Nyxxie is a name I've been using for a very long time (since I was a little girl- my barbie's name was Nyxxie).
How do you feel about the current state of the game?
The game HAD potential, but it's been neglected way too long by someone who doesn't care anymore.
Are there any features or improvements you would like to see?
There is a lot I would have liked to see at one point, yes.
What do you think about the call for some players for a reset? Do you think this would be a good idea?
A reset would be a temporary fix to a problem that will continue to linger. So no, it won't be a good idea.
Do you like the new crimes? Anything you would like to see changed or added to them?
No. I was never impressed by the feature. It was a a little too late.
Do you like the Buzz? Any ideas for it or constructive criticisms?
I love the Buzz and how it has evolved over the years. Aldarion and his staff are doing the very best they can at a time when it's hard.

How long have you played Bootleggers?
I played probably 5-6 years ago for a year. Then every now and again since
Why did you start playing Bootleggers?
Everyone was playing it at school
How did you come up with your current username?
I was trying to come up with a name that was a little bit dangerous.
Of course the terror attacks then were not as they are now. It was never to offend.
How do you feel about the current state of the game?
Looks like some good new features. Although I am seeing alot of hate for BSF2000. I am out of the loop on why.
Are there any features or improvements you would like to see?
I haven't played enough yet to comment
What do you think about the call for some players for a reset? Do you think this would be a good idea?
I thought there just was one? Resets are good. All for it.
Do you like the new crimes? Anything you would like to see changed or added to them?
They are a little bit more complex but I think it adds to the games features.
Do you like the Buzz? Any ideas for it or constructive criticisms?
Buzz is the tits! Love it
Name: BringItBitch

How long have you played Bootleggers?
I have been playing since around: late 04 early 05
Why did you start playing Bootleggers?
My cousin was playing and he told me to sign up, since then i have been playing on and off the whole time basicly.
How did you come up with your current username?
I was on youtube and i seen a video just around the same time i died. The yound girl in the video was mouthing off on call of duty and yelled Bring It Bitch at someone.

How do you feel about the current state of the game?
The game is at a very low stage, I don't know if the game could ever improve back to its peak times.
Are there any features or improvements you would like to see?
See BSF and when Sabin was here were always trying to reduce inflation, I think the current state of the game inflation would need to increase so that people without money and without crews can either kill earlier on, and balance the game away from being one sided.
What do you think about the call for some players for a reset? Do you think this would be a good idea?
Yes and No.
Yes because it would be a clean state for everyone and the game would be leveled.
No because there are very few players playing so even tho it will be a fair playing field anyone who desides to re-sign up early will have a huge advantage over the capacity of players.
So the same problem will still be there just with other people at the top.
Do you like the new crimes? Anything you would like to see changed or added to them?
No i find it to complex and hard to raise the percentages without constant stuffing around to find what state has good percentages and what crime you can attempt.
Do you like the Buzz? Any ideas for it or constructive criticisms?
I don't have any problems with the buzz, although i never read it so i can't offer any criticism, sorry.
Name: DTOXGONTOX
What is your real name and age?
Nathan Van Den Bilt
Where do you live?
Groningen, Netherlands.
How long have you played Bootleggers?
A few weeks after it started. I followed a certain someone after he left a game called M[obstar.
Why did you start playing Bootleggers?
Mostly because M[obstar became a paying service much like World of Warcraft is. You'd have to pay a monthly fee. The creator of this game and I felt the same way, I guess.
How did you come up with your current username?
If Haters gon' hate, DTOX GON' TOX, makes sense, right?
How do you feel about the current state of the game?
Shitty, it should have been dealt with a long time ago. By the person in charge I might add. I've been critical of the persons left in charge but there is only one person responsible in the end.
Are there any features or improvements you would like to see?
I'd like to see the Bug/Feature suggestion topics ratio decline in the "high roller" forum.
What do you think about the call for some players for a reset? Do you think this would be a good idea?
With the new rules I think it might add some value to the game. But as the crew name says, CheatersGonCheat, or is that HatersGonHate? I can't remember.
Do you like the new crimes? Anything you would like to see changed or added to them?
I'd like to see some attention go to the immediate matters at hand. The current crime updates were just to keep the people warm. We all know they have no added value.
Do you like the Buzz? Any ideas for it or constructive criticisms?
I think the Buzz should be more liberal and highlight the poor management that BL has too receive too. I mean we all know BSF is doing a lousy job. It's no use trying to cover up for him.
Note- Interestingly, one person who was asked to take part in this weeks Behind The Name declined to take part after this weeks actions concerning Zeb, particularly his looking into someones facebook to back up a ban!
