One off investments of cash aren't what the game needs, it needs a regular profit and signs of the product and community being one that could grow to show and justify the vast expense that we the community want to see being spent by Jolt on advertising and development.
As Mzyxptlk said Jolt are a business, they bought PA not to throw money away to please us but because they saw something they could potentially make money from. We need to al just open our eyes and realise that we live in a world where money is king and rather than sit here and set them up as the 'big bad' and encouraging people to take shots at them we need to start playing our part and working with them to show that this game is a worthwhile product with a future and the community is ready, willing and able to grow so the investment wouldn't just be a complete and utter waste of money. After all as said before Jolt are a business and turning a profit is vital and if there's more profit to be gained by investment for a small risk they are unlikely to pass it up.
So if you normally buy a credit (or more than 1) each round the best thing we can do as a community is to put that money aside and for r23 then use this money to buy additional credits to upgrade others. This would especially be good if the people you upgrade with these extra credits were new players who haven't ever played PA who you attract with word of mouth in other communities you hang around in.
