You know I can see it now we probably won't hear from a producer type until October, maybe November when they push out u24 and then there is that wonderful Producers Blow me letter


You know, I would believe that about Glin, Glin, Balls on Chin, or Vanishing Vivian or whatever the hell her name is, but even in the face of overwhelming evidence of incompetence MajMal has come out swinging in defense of Turdbin.

Even when he said "That's it, I'm done with you guys" it was only what, 10 days?

It's been more than a month, I figure he's got to be about ready to burst Cheesy

Maybe he's been ordered to keep silent? That's just stupid enough to be a Turdbin policy, you'd think even they would be bright enough to realize that even barely credible damage control is better than no damage control.
  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

On a personal level I think Mal is a great guy. I suspect he may have been over-ridden on the making it live decision but that's something he won't talk about and we'll never know. All I do know is the sheer silence from very glaring issues is rather disturbing.

Truth be told I was nearly ready to faint over them reconsidering the Airship Pricing so all my faith isn't entirely lost.

Still the silence is damaging I agree and it's probably not Mal's call.

I think that the newer things I do like, don't make me feel good because of all the horrible bad things that happened since the update.
I know bugs can be expected but when you start to expect more and more bugs each update as most of us players do, that's not a good sign..

Whatever happened to Vanishing Vivian anyway?  One day she was Producer and then Mal was.

In that case, what are you doing?  Serious question.

I feel the release was premature, rushed and not tested properly. I understand that things tend to work a bit differently on live, than on Lamannia, but wouldn't it be smart to test the functionality of all changes before releasing it on live?

The customers are losing what little faith they/ we have left with every release, and stressing releases like this is just bad for business. Keeping deadlines should never affect quality.

Also, stop frickin bandaiding exploits. If you're gonna fix an exploit, you need to look at the root of the problem and fix it there... not keep changing the UI to do different things, which end up breaking something and allowing other exploits to occur. These bandaids are slowly making the game more of an annoyance than fun.. and again you're driving away customers.

Pile it on.

It is an interesting twist of semantics that "I'll take responsibility" is not the same as "I am responsible".

Sounds to me like Vanishing Viv is the bus chucker and MajMal is not so much Fail Guy as Fall Guy. She sounds like a real peach to work for.

So you're now in a position with all of the responsibility and none of the authority? That sucks.

I know you're a "stick it out to the bitter end" guy, but maybe it's time to hit your buddy Rowan up for a reference, or maye even a job.

Or do you have another job and taking the blame is your parting gift to Vivian? You Paladin  Wink

Wow, Vanishing Viv is still a producer?

I would never guess that is a hundred years.

As far as the update goes... welll.......

...........................................

I like you MajMal.

So just, you know.......... fix the game somehow. At least the bags and crafting systems. Those are real pain in the back. Should be fixed already.

-sigh-

It's never anyone's fault, and that's close to the root of the problems.

Nobody takes ownership.


Own it, fix it, and stop doing these updates the same shitty way.

Please.
