Only as untrue as your statements about the differences in VIP levels. I dont think you would find anybody to back you up about "VIP0=VIP4, VIP0 can pass VIP0 fairly easy" arguments.
No matter how huge the sticking point is, a devoted and smart VIP10, would "at least" maintain 20 levels advantage to an equally devoted and smart VIP0 until VIP0 guy reaches your sticking point and that would take a year or more. In the course of a year, 20 levels advantage would mean tremendous advantage in terms of drachma and gem earnings, arms levels. And there is the red horns and the 150k gold.
And such a gap cant be closed, between two "equally competent" players.
A high VIP may think that VIP level makes no importance at all. But no low VIP would ever agree to that. You may dismiss opposing arguments with comments like "no, wrong", wouldnt make your arguments any more convincing tho. Dont make tiniest amount of sense.
Also if you have seen some low level VIP catching up to some high level VIP of earlier servers. It dont mean nothing. The guys on the front provide input to the guys behind. Late comers make less mistakes. The hidden mechanics of the game are getting uncovered. The game is getting easier. Each patch we get more drachmas, more laurels, more gems, enchant costs getting lowered, arms costs getting lowered, odds getting buffed, heroes getting buffed. So in later servers, people advance faster. That is completely another thing tho.
Also I should be saying, I really dont believe in a huge block as you say. I dont think they would make us wait in front of the same npc for 6 months. The game is repetitive as it is, if it gets any more repetitive, we would eventually find some other game.
That is why we are getting various buffs with all patches. They have to make us advance to keep us playing. If there was a huge block in chienese servers, they would fix that problem before applying the same update to us.
