My toon with the highest email count as of yesterday was my Corr at 658 emails
First of all, forgive me if this is in the wrong location. I have been playing quite a while, but spend zero time in the forums. If I am online, I want to be playing, not reading or typing. This is nothing against the loyal forum junkies, I have just had bad experiences w/ tech forums in the past and tend to stay away from all forums now.
I got into playin in the ae stuff rather late (compared to a lot of players). I had 13 lvl 50's before I ever went into AE. I started playing in the ae building mainly to tinker w/ making new missions. I soon found that it was hard to make baddies that didn't team wipe you fast. I still tried to play in P.I., but found that it was nearly impossible to get a team going anymore. I then started playing in AE. It turned out to be fun, for the most part. I know a lot of you don't like farming or pl'ing, but I like it to an extent. I will never have a toon make it to level 50 in a week like a lot of the ae people. I get bored playing any one toon and move to another, and another. I run two accounts, and tend to switch around a lot. I think I had at least 10 toons before my first 50. I mainly use pl maps to get my toons to a playable level (without running out of end or w/o travel powers). I think my fastest movement to 50 was my stone/dark tank that made it in a month in ae.
I never go in after the "cheats" or whatever like the bubbles or whatever before the last issue. I just find a map/enemy I like and play it for a while, and switch things up when I want to. I rarely play w/ much of a team because I find it annoying to play with level 50's that don't know how to get to P.I. . I have made a few maps, some with stories, some just your basic map. I got tired of never having anyone to play with in PI and having to drag my alt around sk'd, so I made an ae council empire map. I didn't mention farming in the title or description. It wasn't a heavily played map.. probably because it has the standard council empire baddies (minions, lts, and bosses) and I added some bosses that can be a real problem to fight.
Anyway, I was getting ready to run one of my other maps tonight and see a notice that one of my maps was banned by a dev. I guess one must have decided it was a farm map. I suppose it is, but then almost every ae map I have seen is as well. Why would a dev bother banning a map with minions and lieutenants (that is a tougher version of a P.I. map) with a rating of 12, but leave alone all of the lvl 52-53 boss maps with a lvl 45 auto sk? The only thing I can come up with is that they are morons. If you do not want people "farming" maps or power leveling or leveling too fast... FIX IT. I am quit sure that it wouldn't be all that complicated to fix it so that people cannot level too fast in ae. Call me crazy, but fixing the auto sk would seem to fix it all. Making it so that nobody is 5-7 levels below the baddies and raking in the xp would seem to fix it pretty fast. Set it up so that if the baddies are 52's, the team is ALL 50s. Baddies 45, team no less than 43. The lowbies will still level faster on a good team than if they were solo or running equal level enemies, but it wouldn't exactly be power leveling. My map is a problem because it is considered farming? But someone can run on a map that hasn't been banned (and only has to have a glowie clicked to finish) and get from lvl 1-30 in two runs? Yeah, that is logical.
I guess I will just have to do what some others do, publish my maps when I am online and take them down when I am not. That or just stop paying my $32.32 a month to hav dev's spend their time banning my maps instead of fixing known issues or real problems with the game.
Oh and on a side note.... fix the freaking email. Either make it so that I can turn it off completely or make the spam list infinite. Every time I mark one as spam, it bumps off another one. Guess it is too hard to keep the influence peddling people from spamming us constantly huh? Have every form/spelling of a curse or offensive word programmed in so that it is filtered in chat, but can't run a decent email filter huh? Or are the dev's getting kick-backs from ****** or whatever it is called?
Why so grumpy? My company laid off swing shift, so I am unemployed after 15 years at my company. So, forgive my grumpiness...
