An article I think many of you should read

I found it to be a good read and thought I'd share.

Enjoy

TLDR : Developers don't have the time to waste on you, and even if they did, you're horrible people anyways.

that was a very informative read. Hopefully it'll pop this delusional bubble some of the forum users are hiding in, and bring them back to reality.

It is a good read. Thanks.

Think he should have touched upon the complexity of such MMO's. But it was still a good article.

People need to read this. As a developer, I absolutely loathe talking to clients, because no matter what the plan is, they will find osmething to complain about. Not communicating lets the core issues come through easier, instead of saying "we're doing that" then they'll just find stuff to nitpick about.

Good article.



Yesterday somebody in a private tell asked me to help them level, so i said can you read he said yes, my reply was see i just helped you level.

reading comprehension is key to this game shame so far 92% still don't bother to read.

Any of you who were here in beta remember all the threads about game being to easy yet all i see lately is how hard it is or i have no money in game.

Good article. Sadly whether it comes to community managers or developers is always as if youre bein arrested - every word you say can and will be used against you.
If i recall correctly there even was a Dev Panel at PAX concerning Toxicity and how to handle it without losing your mind - personally its gotten to ridicilous point and hopefully its a matter of time before comapanies standing behind games start to act and do something about it. They sure must pay them a lot @ Blizzard ^^

Actually, developer interaction is pretty common these days, on Reddit in particular.

Good read, a bit arrogant but its what we've come to expect from Games developers (well many i know have).

I just want to say this is also a double edged sword, what he says is true to a point, but its lack of communication that also kills the games over night. Honestly if they came down from their high horses occasionally and talked to the unwashed masses they might actually learn something..

I could tell he was from Arenanet immediately he had that arrogance about him.

Rule 1, 2 and 3 are so true
