That's a matter of opinion. The "fun" part, that is. Has nothing to do with the reward for me. Fun is the reward.

...don't we already have those? We call 'em "street sweeps".

Nope. x2.

What int he bloody hell does "the face of the game" have to do with lore?

I'll answer that in case you're having trouble: Jack @#%$.

Like hell it was. Just because you couched it in friendly terms doesn't mean it wasn't condescending.

Oh, it doesn't count if you're insulting the DEVS.... Because, you know, they're not people so you can spit whatever hate and baseless accusations you want at them. Gotcha.

Yes, only you are allowed to be condescending and patronizing. My apologies.

Well, as I said above, the fact that he was the character that was the in-game representation of the man who is now the head of the game's direct competitor. Removing him for that reason isn't "spite", it's just plain good business sense.

...as if he was so highly developed before it. Hell, he was barely in the game at all before it.

You know what they say about assumptions...

And, yeah, that's all your accusation is. Spite? Seriously?

Most recognizable? Maybe. Marketable? Pff, yeah right. Actually, it seems he was pretty widely viewed as an over the top, one-dimensional Mary Sue.

He was also the in-game representation of the man who left to head up a company making the game's biggest competitor in the genre. So, yeah, I'm only surprised it took them this long to remove him. But I wouldn't call that "spite".

Seriously, there's really no excuse to not know...

And had the bonus of not being an anti-semantic stereotype, but let's not dwell on that. >.>

You realize you don't have to save every single bit of salvage that drops, right?

D.U.S.T. are new with First Ward, I believe. The Possessed and the Apparitions as well.

This. duh, man.

Nope. Next question?

Do the WTF for a Notice of the Well each week, which can be broken down into shards. Or run trials and use threads to make your incarnate powers.

Yes, a bunch of people standing around not interacting with anyone and spamming AOE powers. God, how I MISS that.

No. Take your effort to force us to uphold your vision of how we should be playing the game and shove it someplace dark and smelly.

And you can do this with an announcement at the beginning and a few reminders during. It is not necessary to SPAM THE CHANNEL CONSTANTLY during the event. It's disruptive and obnoxious and, frankly, the dismissive attitude to complaints about it ( More than just this thread, I see them constantly in other channels in-game when they're happening as well ) is disrespectful of the people who are paying your salary. And I really hate to pull out that argument ( in fact, usually am against it ), but it seems in this case, a reminder is needed...

Not for those who don't care about live events. They'd fall under the category of "everyone". I'm not trying to stop or reduce the number of live events, just lessen the intrusion on the game experience for those who aren't interested.

The balance, however, is too heavily shifted toward the global admin channel. Far more than is necessary to "make certain that everyone knows the event is happening" goes into the global admin channel.


And this is all I'm looking for. Limiting it to an announcement and reminders, not taking it COMPLETELY out of the global admin channel.

Yes, how silly of me. RPing in an MMO***RPG***

Edit: By the way, you're in an internet forum for a game dedicated to a computer RPG based on comic book superheroes. You have ZERO room to criticize anyone's geekiness. We're all geeks here.

Yes. And, again, I wouldn't mind a short announcement of the event at the start and a reminder occasionally during. But several lines at a time spammed every couple minutes? Screw that.

I have nothing against the events themselves and in no way want them to reduce/stop them. It's just the ADMIN spam that irritates the @$%^ out of me. And they could easily do the events without it.

Oooooooor, they could remove the problem themselves by not using the channel that spams every tab of every window with big, bold, red text for every damn tiny little thing during the event. Especially when doing so is totally unnecessary.

RP chat tends to go faster depending on the number of people involved and the red text scrolling it of has a bigger impact on things. It's disruptive and annoying. If you don't think so, more power to you. But, you don't use chat as heavily as I do, clearly. When you're nose deep an a big fight, the chat text is mostly irrelevant. ( Unlike some other MMOs where raid coordination takes more communication ) When you're RPing, the chat text is everything.

Then the grounds for my complaint is irrelevant to you and you have no place to say tell me suck it up it's not that bad...
