The writing on the wall?

Anyone else notice a distinct lack of outrage over the new round of dupes on the mobos?  For that matter, anyone notice a distinct lack of outrage over anything on the mobos?

Usually you have the "honest" players complaining about how unfair duping is to the non-cheaters.  To be fair, it kind of is.  The whole reason I came to the vault was to get in on the duping so I wasn't left behind during that dupe fest, and the whole reason I knew about the duping (or the vault) was because of the outrage on the mobos.

Duping, favor exploits, pots, shards, all of those have created a ton of pissed off posts in the past but it's been nothing but crickets over the new round of ottos dupes.  In the past I'd add voice to how unfair it was just to fuel the anger and try to aim it back towards the devs because - fuck those guys.  But either they're unaware of it on the mobos or people have just stopped caring.

I'm allowing for this being a failure on our part for not taking advantage of an opportunity to troll and piss people off and make Jerry do his job, but I think we've mostly just hit a point that people have been burned by Turbine so many times that they don't care enough about the game anymore to get angry about missing out.

Thoughts?

I think they are involved.
They make money from shard exchange.
And other advantages they may get.

hahah oh my, this is savage Smiley lovely Smiley

btw, i don't care about exploits and ppl exploiting, but i think that since there was a dev post saying like "we know about it and we are working on it" + they hear in game someone talking about that they heard from someone else that someone was maybe banned...that's enough for fanbois to feel that the universe is a friendly and cozy place and to sleep well.

I've been shocked by the lack of outrage in the community beyond personal contacts, and the lack of action on the part of SSG.

fat jerry is doing a really good job killing posts lately. When that post went up about the ED nerf it got knocked down inside of half an hour. I think there IS widespready wangst about it, but nobody can post because "no talk about exploiting".
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

"widespready" was a typo, but "wangst" is totally a word. Widespready might be a word, now, too.

I know you can't talk about the specifics but you can usually bitch about the general.  I got a warning while mentioning the orchard specifically ages ago, but there was still a lot of general butthurt over the favor exploit in general.

I saw threads get deleted just for mentioning it. There may be some complaining deeper within the long threads that goes unnoticed but anyone who starts a thread even to just complain can look forward to swift retribution.

If SSG wants to cut costs, they should replace that half-wit with a half-baked potato.

The Vault has no community manager or moderator, and we do ok.

His forum nazi banning led me to cancel my VIP. So he is costing them  my money. And I doubt I am the only one.

No complaints but reportings are happening internally.

I heard certain members from Korthos Village People on Cannith have gotten perma-banned, and another group not related to the KVP bans are monitoring certain players from other guilds that have been reportedly life-spamming.

Cannith is a fucking cesspool of snitches and doublefaced bitches.

Korthos Village People...lol!  Grin Grin
  

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Worst fucking name ever.  How do you go from the "uber-elite" guild having a kick-ass name like Gods to something as gay as that?
