Formal request for the wipe of all "General Discussion" threads located in English F.

Dear SQEX and Moderation staff :)

As painful as the past 24hrs have been i completely understand that issues like the one's we been experiencing were completely expected. We were all warned about the massive incoming congestion from EA players hitting the servers at a high load. Regular updates have been streamed as just a few example links below.

and here

and as a final example here.

To be Continued->

Continued part2:

---------------------------------------------
Incoming EA players have either been dismissing these updates as meaningless jabber, completely ignore them or just don't check or have never checked them period. Because of these reasons allot of players I've noticed on here have become upset because they cant "play their game" or "WHY DOESN'T IT WORK" (random examples) threads and "wasted money" (even though the game has not officially launched yet.) threads. Players have become hostile threatening pre-order cancellations and slamming SE left and right because players have become impatient or don't know how to be patient when its not even the OFFICIAL launch date. Players don't bother to ACTUALLY LOOK FOR SERVER STATUS'S AND DEV AND RE UPDATES.

To be Continued->

Continued Part 3->

We the players have been warned before EA even started that first several days would experience massive congestion and yet players have continued to ignore the prior warnings and post warnings and updates.
-------------------------------


Due to this situation the "General Discussion" thread of the English forums have been littered with meaningless and senseless complaint posts page after page and what use to be a fun section to watch has now become poisoned with attack threads of players attacking the ppl who are actually defending the game and littered with "waste of money threads." and complaints after complaints after complaint threads of situations that was already expected to happened, adressed or going to be addressed errors. Therefor I formally request the wipe of the "General Discussion" thread in the English forums come launch day so it doesn't scare off new comers so we can all enjoy the wonderful game that is A Realm Reborn :)

OMG lol the limits on posting sucks


*On a personal note: It was very hard to make this post but after seeing this section fall to such a poor state I felt like i had no choice but to ask :)

(To the trolls:
There is no reason to attack my post. So please lol go rant/troll on ur own waa waa posts)


I realise that not all posts in this section have been bad so to those who have made freindly postings and numerous good threads, i mean no insult to you :)

Not in that sense Its just that this section has become out of hand cuze ppl dont know how to be patient or have yet to realise this game hasnt even released yet so their flooding this section with pointless complaint threads and scaring ppl off


Edit: OMG forum congestion causing slow page loading ahah

your thread is just as annoying as theirs lol and SE cant even keep these forums loading fast, like 15-30 seconds to refresh. I thought the days of dial up were gone. Naturally as no one can get into the game they come here instead so the game login is restricted so not many people can get in which transfers congestion to these forums instead when people come here to find out why the game they bought is unplayable. Two sides of the same coin really their threads and yours.

Yes. Because the best possible reaction from a customer service standpoint is to stifle criticism and pretend it doesn't exist.

I beg your pardon, but this is still like memberating. Next time directly message an admin and keep your opinions of the awful awful bad nasty forumites to yourself. Admins are all over the place with stickies. That way we can all be ignorant to these problems and let the admins do their job. :)

No self-respecting company would just shove hundreds of peoples' complaints out the door. Do you have any idea how bad that would look for them?
