Instanced Dungeons D/C Fail

[AarosLunos]

You know what, this isn't a personal attack more so than it is my consistent disappointment in the community in general. I'm fed up of having to tolerate the endless regurgitation of people who endlessly complain without reason. I have been in this game 'before' day 1 back to the first closed beta. Additionally I work in software development and have been in the exact position Yoshi is in now. Having to clean up managerial messes created by a slew of ex-egomanicial managers.

There is a difference between opinion and pointless blathering without any form of constructive input. All you do is whine and complain and only point out any flaws without even bothering to point out any positive results. I'm my time I have seen the game evolve from a riddled buggy mess with constant server crashes, UI performance, problems, etc to where we are now. Maybe YOU don't like the direction of the game, but then why are you still here? If you hate the game and hate the direction that you see, then why are you even bothering to waste your time posting on the forums at all? Why bother? As you espoused in your earlier post, many people had left the game from the initial launch problems.

However because you are so blinded, what you are failing to realize with continual success with game balance changes, content and other patches, the community is coming back. Yes the game is getting close to the 1 year mark, but that does not make my point any less valid.

Much like you I still had hope and STILL DO have hope and patches like 1.18 continue to reinforce my optimism for the future. Patience still clearly relevant. As I waited, and I'm satisfied. The members in my LS are also satisfied an it sounds like a significant percentage of players on my server are satisfied. Eventually it will get to the point where the whiny, impatient portion of the community will become outcasts.

Also note I never said I know what is best for the game. But you continually assert that only your opinion is valid like you do know! Oh and anyone who doesn't agree with your perspective is also flamed. WOW. Seeing a pattern here? I'm obviously not the only one who feels this way about your posts.

I'm not following like sheep. I have had my share of issues with the game (Linkshell administration anyone?). But I also see things from a different perspective as a developer and project manager. Tanaka royally screwed the pooch and when a manager/director leads a project astray, it is NOT EASY TO FIX!

oh wow attacking directly. listen closely i have been in game since day 1 and for the most part until quiet recently became vocal as i watched more and more of my friends leave the game. i come into the forums and make a valid complaint and people just like you have to go and commit blatant tos violations by starting personal attacks.

let me remind you this game is getting close to its 1 year mark and the vast majority of players have already given up on this game ever getting better. i still had hope, and would make suggestions and the same group flamed everything that was said by people that actually played the game. the part about being patient held relevance months ago, but this is beyond patience you want. you want people to follow like sheep and hope that one day the game will get better.

btw, you know nothing more about what the game needs than anyone else as it is only your opinion. i state mine and you can state yours, but you can stop with the childish personal attacks.

let's say this one last time. i took the flaming for months because the repeated cussing and tos violations from certain members in this community the were constantly ignored by the staff. i finally had my fill of it and started stating my opinions whether they, you, or anyone else agreed with it. they are my opinions. i have stated quite clearly when there was something added to the game that i liked. i have given credit where i felt credit is due.

when i see something positive i say something positive. i was glad to see fatigue removed in this patch and the dungeons were put in place. that's all i will say positive about this patch because that is all i have found so far that i have liked. you don't have to like my opinion anymore than i do yours, but our opinions are just as equal value wise.

you cannot call someone out by name and claim it is not a personal attack.

Its a two way street my friend. You can not hide behind forum rules when you are guilty of just the same. I have mostly lurked and I've seen countless posts from you flaming or trolling others because of their opinions. Yes, opinions have worth, however when the opinion comes from a known forum troll/flamer then you completely discredit any opinions you wish to express.

oh you mean like my tos violation when i told someone they didn't have to act like a jerk after they told someone to go shoot themselves in the face? i still have that email. mine was removed responding to him, but his statement stayed up for almost a week afterwards.

"was this even necessary? a guy asked an innocent question and you have to be a jerk. come on we have free time and i hate how people are struggling over there to just survive, but it's not like he said they owe this or that. a simple question doesn't need a rude response."

that was my exact quote that i was tos violated over. look through this very forum and see how many posts are much more abusive than that. you wonder why some people are getting very upset with the game and these forums themselves and things like this is the reason. if one group can talk to the other and say whatever they want and the other cannot respond to them, yes, over time they will get upset.

Pretty unfortunate. However there are two sides to a story and yours is just one aspect. Based off your post history you have plenty of inflammatory troll posts. If you want better reactions to your posts and opinions you need to be more polite and diplomatic. However, like I stated, if you feel that way then why are you here?

no my point was i started fighting back after these types of things. i supported this game for the first few months. only within the last month or so have i started changing my opinions on the direction. if deciding i don't like the direction things are going and start standing up for myself makes me a troll then ,by all means, i am a troll. the thing is that makes you and everyone else on these forums a troll for the very same reason.

polite and diplomatic got me cussed and called everything anyways so i have already given up on that in these forums. i'm going to say what i think and i could care less who likes it.

Yet you still insist on posting here. I'm trying to understand the psychology behind this. You hate the game, hate the direction, hate the forums. . .yet you're here. If you feel so abused or wronged by the mods or SE or anyone, then simply sign off to never return. Everything that exists in this patch has been outlined since January/February. There were polls with publicly published results that definitely displayed that the community wanted SE to take this direction. So if you feel disenfranchised: why are you here?
