Someone call the cops!

[C-croft]

I don't know why people keep encouraging mass amounts of players to quit funding a game they also play any time they raise their concerns. You do realize that if everybody left over being upset over one thing, they'd probably just turn off servers since no one was playing, right?

Because a business thrives off the income it brings in. By voting with your wallet, you show that a business decision is not in the best interest of it consumers, causing either a change in policy, or a shut down of the game. Any smart business realizes the smarter move and changes policy to meet the demand of its consumers or a suitable middle ground. Or it fails. Ask Microsoft how their Xbox One is doing.

Why do you think WoW has been running all these years?

It's wonderful that several people in FCs are being benched because their FC members who already have a 8 man static can't run the content again to help them out and that you don't get to experience a different form of gameplay for the best content in the game without making an additional character more than once a week.

This is a choice your static and FC has made. There is nothing to stop you from recruiting people and splitting your static for a couple weeks to get some of your FC members coil experience. I don't like lockouts either, but the least you can do is make a better effort to bring in your FC instead of blaming everything on SE. Also, if other people want to get into coil, there are always pugs, or they can leave FC and go to one that is building a coil group. So many options, it's a shame you pigeon hole your FC into only running a set static and leaving people behind.

You're missing the point completely. What I am saying is that once I finish coil once for the week I am unable to help my FC friends who haven't do the same. Regardless of whether we're in a static or not that makes no difference since you still can't help your friends once locked out. Basically I am forced to pick 7 people out of my entire FC to do the best content in the game with per week. I should be able to help all my friends, not forced to choose 7 of them to help for the entire week.

Post locked again.

I do understand what you are saying. But given the fact that the limitation is here, it is in place, and for the time being, not going anywhere, what have you done to help your FC? I would like to see at least a CT style lockout so you could run it all you want and only loot once, but that isn't the case right now. Rather than doing what you can to work with the system, you blame SE and stick to your static.

Turning off your sub without complaining is not good 'voting', as it doesn't let the company know for sure why so many people are unsubbing. Maybe they migrated to a new game, maybe they can't afford it anymore because holidays, maybe there's something players think are terribly wrong.
If the game continues to add content players are unhappy with, even after continuously bringing it up, I'm sure many players will unsub and SE would have a good idea of the reasoning behind it.

SE knows exactly what we are complaining about. They are *trying* to find a middle ground for everyone without letting the flood gates go. Hence the myth cap increase. They have the required analytics and they can also see from the forums how unhappy people are about lockouts, but if people keep paying each month, there is no reason to change it and the system stays the same.
