I guess I'll point out that the straight-jackets are this-a-way, your padded cell is that-a-way, Nurse Ratchet will be by with your meds soonish, and that extra special just for you MrDead we have this nice shiny ball-gag! Never been used! Honest! No, really! Honestly & truly! Can I help you with that?

Wow Dead your blatant cry for comeraderie and friendship on the boards is...kinda sad actually. I hope you find someone some day. Good luck brother.

MrDead,
What do you think that we, as players, should do if we disagree with the service or treatment we have been getting from a game we play a monthly subscription for?

Vote with your feet. Vote with your wallet. Call CS. Write the dev's mail. But yelling and ultimatums and threats, well, they just have the opposite effect and make people like me talk on the forums. You don't want that
now do you?

Some of us are voting with feet and wallet, but this is a community we value and discussion of events among your peers is normal and healthy. You aren't posting here as an affect of our actions, you're posting here because you want to or feel you need to. Why, I'm not sure. That's your deal.
[/ QUOTE ]
For every action there... eh nm. I actually am posting as a direct result, but whatever.
Ed: Somebody get the kids with the argument over the word 'direct' in here while we're at it.
[/ QUOTE ]
Sorry, but wrong. Nothing I or anyone else has posted is making you be here. You're 'choosing' to post. Whether for a misplaced comrade in development perspective, just to air your disagreement, or simply to be obnoxious, I couldn't say.
[/ QUOTE ]
Soooo.. what you're saying is.. if these posts didn't exist, your argument wasn't here, and this thread had never been posted... I'd still be here making this post? A simple yes or no will do. Thank you.
[/ QUOTE ]
No, what he's saying is that you're posting here of free will, which means that either you care about the game and the developers, and think they did the right thing, or you're merely being obstreperous for the sake of being obstreperous.
If it's actually the first of those two possibilities one might find some degree of admiration for you, but you eliminated any possibility of that with your fairly acerbic and caustic feelings about MMO players (of whcih you are one, by the way)... but the reality is that your mentality is, well... to paraphrase;
"MMO developers have a right to abuse their subscribers because they can't be trusted and because they're no more than children. In effect, MMO clients have it comin'... and they deserve whatever they get. "
This really is pretty basic logic and comprehension, dude. It's pretty clear why you were in QA instead of programming...
[/ QUOTE ]
All of which is STILL a direct result of you guys going on and on. Damn this is funny. Oh yeah, way to go there again guy! Keep 'em commin'!
Ed: Hey try an slip how you think Posi's fat in again on your next reply. Stick to the high road brother.

Heh... "elitism".
We post something you disagree with and you challenge us on it.
We counter your challenge, annihilating your logic and pointing out (albeit unnecessarily) a clearly biased mentality given your work history, not to mention your slavish devotion to being mistreated as a customer... simply because you seem to think that, for some reason, MMO customers have it coming.
And that makes us... "elitist".
You're going to have to try harder than that, son. You're boring me...

Re-read the thread. I'll just leave it at that.

I just call 'em like I see 'em. There are actually people posting in this thread I dislike; you? I have no real opinion of you. It'll take more than snide attention seeking to make you more than a slight annoyance--and even then only in this thread.
Good luck with getting everyone else riled, though. Shouldn't be too hard.

[/ QUOTE ]
Awesome...
Right, so where did I call you name? Please quote me.
Also, bear in mind that I said earlier upthread that I figured you were a nice fella... of course, you didn't bother with that, did you? I know better than to form a value judgement of someone based solely on their posts online, many people act like complete jerks online but are really nice folks.
Secondly, I started this thread, no one else. Furthermore, I started the thread with an opinion formed by way of my own research in addition to the anectodes of my fellow justicites. Simply because you're in the minority of agreement doesn't mean that the rest of us are guilty of cronyism... but nice try.
Thirdly, if you're going to pick a fight with someone, make sure you can win. So far the only way you've managed to even get my attention, let alone actually counter anything I've said in terms of customer service or of the issue itself, is by behaving like a spoiled child who can't bear to lose an argument.
You're outclassed, outmatched and out-gunned, brother. There's no shame in losing an argument.
The only thing you have left at this point is hostility. You're not even bothering with addressing the issue and justifying your position, let alone making even so much as a dent in my arguments of the topic at hand.
It's sad, really...
But, at the same time, I've been gone a long time and I enjoy a good bit of How-Do-You-Do, so please keep posting, I'm enjoying stomping you into the ground.

You guys keep saying I lose but.. I haven't. Your friends are leaving, not mine. You're dissatisfied with the game, not me. You think you're being mistreated, I don't. I can do nothing BUT win. Not to mention I don't personally judge just stating the same crap over and over as being 'stomped into the ground'
I'm sure your clique agrees with you, but then... so? You haven't actually proven anything except you have a large vocabulary and as much time to waste as I do.
