Seriously? No red names even have a "we're looking into this" rubber-stamp response for us?

I'm having a memory leak occur when I run the game. The rate of memory increase speeds up when I'm playing the game, of course, but I could be sitting on the log in screen doing nothing and the memory usage steadily increases until the client crashes and gives me the old Memory Leak report from the game Beta and asks me to report it.

My Specs:
AMD Phenom II X6 Processor
3.25 GB of RAM
ATI Radeon HD 5750 running Catalyst version 10.4
Microsoft Windows XP Pro
Ultramode On, settings high


Observed Issue, and Hard Data:

1. Start Game/Load Login Screen/Begin Stopwatch/Do nothing else
Mem Usage: 653,412

2. Displaying Login Screen 1 min.
Mem Usage: 675,056

3. Displaying Login Screen 2 min.
Mem Usage: 692,888

4. Displaying Login Screen 5 min.
Mem Usage: 714,340

5. Displaying Login Screen 10 min.
Mem Usage: 750,984

6. Displaying Login Screen 15 min.
Mem Usage: 791,204

6. Displaying Login Screen 30 min.
Mem Usage: 883,500

7. Displaying Login Screen 1 hr.
Mem Usage: 1,252,160

Anyway, when it crashes it gives this error:
ERROR: swDumpStackToBuffer - timeout (258) waiting for dumpHeap is NOT corrupted
Last windows SYSTEM error: Not enough storage is available to process this command.

...and in the end, they lived happily ever efter! Why, you ask? Well, no one knows.
And that's the whole story.
(OR IS IT?!)

P.S. (IT ISN'T!)

I don't know what we're yelling about! LOUD NOISES!

You know, I really love how with every contest Cryptic holds, you get people that are completly insistent that everything is rigged and that dirty dealings took place. Reminds me of the McCarthy era...

I can see the strings! Curse you all, can't you see them?! Statesman never went to the moon, it's all a dirty commie conspiracy!
Unhand me!
Auuuuugh!


EDIT: To those saying "Yaarr! Having your wallpaper in teh gallery made you a winnzor! Unfair!", mine was in the gallery, and I didn't win. Should I be complaining that I got ripped off? Look, you either won or you didn't win.
This too shall pass, and when you are greying and old, you most certainly won't raise a shaky fist and wheeze "Curse you COH... curse yooooou...."

Wow! When I woke up today, I didn’t expect this much anger and spite. I got a sharp pang of disappointment when seeing the winners gallery, but I’m sure all the losing entrants did.
I figured a couple “nah, I would have picked a different winner for such-n-such place”, but a general posting of goodwill. You know, like in the Halloween Costume Contest. I do understand why people would be upset that their wallpaper isn’t getting any recognition, but that’s no reason to go on a vitriolic post frenzy.
On the other hand, I really would like to congratulate the winners on a job well done. I would have picked differently on a couple, but that’s just me.
So to summarize:
Winners - Well done!
Losers (Of which I am one) - Stop complaining so much, it’s poor sportsmanship.
My Mom - Hi Mom! I’m on the TEE VEE!
Canada – Seriously though, your flag = the awesome.
Veronica Corningstone - I’d like to extend to you an invitation to the pants party.
Ian - Very well. Ian, would you like to go to a party in my pants?
Everyone else - Hey, how’s it going.
AutoRPD - *tips hat* Howdy Mayor.
What was I doing… oh. Right. Sorry, I’m rubbish at summarizing.

Onward, to the next context, AND BEYOND! (Or maybe just to the next contest. ._.)

How philosophical. Gives new weight to "With a friend like that, who needs enemies?"
