Where are we going and Why am I in this Handbasket?

Only now, not so much. They just posted (in game too) that they're rolling back the patch. Probably 'cause of that whole non-combat Rikti pet crashing anyone near it when summoned thing I read about.

Sooooo confused by this. Wasn't this patch on the Training Room for two weeks or something? How did they not catch this problem in all that time?

One valid comment made by testers during I15 is that sometimes testers AREN'T the best people to use since they know things too well. People thought to type things and see if the chat bug came up. They didn't think to do random "normal" gameplay . Plus, in defense this seems like something obscure that would only have been caught by accident.

Yeah - it's totally impossible to test everything - they can only catch the more obvious stuff - and just how many people would ever summon a Rikti Monkey pet on Test, or even think about doing it?

One curious thing though...

*puts on conspiracay helmet*

...has anyone noticed that the text that pops up isn't so "random", it actually is a recording of the last couple of keystrokes performed in succession. Do you think what we actually have is not a "bug" but a way to record our actions that accidentally displays when it shouldn't?

Yeah, it happens when you click on a "non editable" interface (such as the market) and type things, and then go back to the chat window. Something about saving to the clipboard or whatever.
