Splinterlands Thoughts!

what am i doing wrong?? it is a question i have heard so many times since Splinterlands went viral and we had this avalanche of newcomers in Splinter-world so here i am trying to answer this question through this post, and believe me YOU (newbies) inspired me to make a post after shooting me so many times with this so very common question

??what am i doing wrong and i can't make what you make out of the game??

i really don't want to make a long post and get you bored but before trying to explain what you do wrong it is essential to understand that we have different kind of users in Splinterlands i have spoken about it in older posts but let me quickly refer to this different types of users

• first we have gamers, all of these users who are getting thrilled out of the game experience
• secondly there are the collectors, users who are interested in collecting the NFTs for their reasons
• thirdly we have traders, users who are willing to trade the NFTs and they see nothing but money, for them the monster-cards are a product to trade and that's all

out of my experience these are the 3 major categories
it doesn't mean that a trader cannot be a collector, or a gamer cannot be a trader and a collector at the same time, but if you wanna divide the Splinter-world into categories i believe that most of us fall under the above one way or the other

now what am i??? well i consider myself firstly a collector, i got involved in the game because i like collecting cards after some time i got involved in playing the game and i was really surprised by the rush and the joy i was getting out of it, so i became a gamer as well if you see me playing the game you will definitely start laughing with me and my reactions but this means that i enjoy playing
the thing that i definitely think i am not, is a trader....i'm a lousy trader, totally disappointment every time i tried to trade cards i ended up losing money so i said to myself 'forget about trading you are not made for this'

so having said that lets come to your hot question 'what are you doing wrong in Splinterlands'

my dear newbies, even your question is wrong what are you doing wrong? let me tell you what you doing wrong... EVERYTHING yes you do everything wrong! i don't wanna be the smart guy in the room, neither be hard on you but all the guys who are asking this question are doing everything wrong from their very start in Splinterlands

you have to understand something the first thing you must make clear with you is what kind of a user you are!

if you have not decided what you are, if you don't understand why you got involved with the game, you will never find out what is going wrong i see that many of you are focusing on 'what can i make out of the game' guys! guys! lets try to relax here Splinterlands is not a job....is that clear?....SPLINTERLANDS IS NOT A JOB Splinterlands is a game.... a game which cause is to make you spend some time enjoying yourself the thing that you can make something out of it, is a bonus!...yes the cryptos you can make out of playing Splinterlands is a bonus and not its purpose! so if you came in Splinterlands in order to play there is no reason to troubling your head with questions like why i'm not making money!! you dont make money cause Splinterlands is not a money machine, it is a game so you'd rather ask yourself if you are enjoying the game and not why you are not making money

and by the way....you just bought the Spellbook for 10$ and you wanna be millionaires by investing 10$ ????? come on guys...gimme a break here!...are you really serious with that? you spent 10$ and you wanna make money???
this makes no sense at all you have the opportunity with only 10$ to get on board in a great game with a VAST community, which is growing every day, and have fun and you ask for more? just point me out another game which offers you the same chance ....with zero fees on transactions...

and the truth is that with only 10$ you can still make something back in your wallets and this is the superiority of Splinterlands
