What? Thursday is weekly maintenance day, and has been ever since they made it weekly rather than twice weekly. It's in the afternoon, here, so I notice it fairly often. The servers are usually down for a while, even if not the full two hours, on exactly the time that it says in the FAQ.

This. Also, any dialogue can really start to grate if it's on contacts who get visited a lot, like WW employees, for example. I'm playing truant on another game right now, and I'm starting to want to punch the Randomly Australian Trader who keeps telling me about his adventuring days. Shut up! Shut up, shut up, shut up!

That said, if a lot of people wanted voiceovers, then sure, so long as there's an off switch in the options.

I wonder if people's perspectives get skewed by playstyle, too. If you're the kind of player who scorches up through the levels on new characters, sets them out, then fairly quickly stops playing them and moves on, then you have a much closer ratio of inf spent:inf gained when you compare selling and buying on that alt. On the other if, like me, you mostly play the same handful of characters for years and very rarely respec, then the ratio is vastly weighted in favour of the amount made from selling.

Possibly, it isn't 'silent acceptance', but more that most people don't actually have these problems when they play.

I've just done the transfer, and parked the character (Ellie Mintal) in Pocket D. See you later!

It's true, and it's been true for as long as I've been playing. Archie and I play sat at side-by-side desks, and we noticed the local determination of the Propel object pretty quickly.

At the moment, there is no randomness element to the Freebie Friday. The devs pick a single item, then everyone gets the same thing. Given that, it's fairly obvious that we're going to be getting consumable items unless and until it becomes possible to give different accounts different items based on their current unlocks.

If they gave out an emote, then all the people who've already unlocked it would get nothing. Or, actually, given the terrible market interface, they would add the hat to their cart and then have the transaction fail at the checkout with the usual unhelpful message. Some people wasting their time on a trip to the market only to get nothing at all is worse marketing than everyone getting a usable consumable item.

Looks like they're handing out crack along with the free insp.

Some of the first/second line support staff are not always as helpful as they could be. The good news is, all you need to do is ask politely for the issue to be escalated to a more senior GM. That's always worked out well for me -- either I've had the problem fixed, or at least I've got a sensible explanation of why it can't be.

I'm sorry to have to add another vote, here, but as werewolves go that is pretty cutesy. It doesn't help that the way he's posed made it look at first glance like he's carrying an angry plushie purse.

Does it have to imply that, though? Unless you think that's implied in any pairing, I guess -- I know some fandoms have a lot of the 'One True Pairing' type of shipping. Generally, though, I don't think it's the conclusion I'd reach. (I'd probably assume that someone reeeeeeeally liked GG :-)

We've have OEM versions of Windows on virtually very PC we've ever owned, since Archie built our first one back in 1993. It has never, not once, been a problem.

I've watched some soul-sappingly crap films purely because Johnny Depp was in them.

But a popular wrongness, at least so the world of fanfic would suggest.

No, but there is a 'g' in whinge. Stop whinging about it.

What, NEVER? Never, never, ever?

No, no, no. Bacon Armour. Just think how powerful the taunt aura would be!
