Noticing bad rubberbanding / lag in game? SE needs to dump their ISP NTT

[Deceptus]

yes it's not as simple as simply flipping a switch on and off. they can't just go "bye NTT" and suddenly sign up with ABC company.

We know, but there's been radio silence from CBU3 on this issue outside of the "we know it's going on but it's not us"

[DrWho2010]

We know it's not that simple, but there's been absolutely no communication on the issue at all.

Probably a little something called an "N-D-A"? There's a reason those exist. Hence why we've most likely heard nothing.

NDAs don't prevent them from communicating entirely. SE can still discuss information regarding connectivity issues without disclosing anything too confidential, such as acknowledging it(they did once, but continued acknowledgement would help), along with continued reassurances that they're going to do something. If NTT is somehow pressuring SE not to talk about the whole issue at all, then that would likely involve way more than a NDA.

what's worse, nothing? or a weekly update saying all the time "sorry we still don't know what's going on"? lol

"We have identified the problem and are actively working with NTT to resolve it"

Ok, say they do say that. You wouldn't be satisfied either if they kept repeating that weekly until something changed, would you? Then you would complain that they don't change their message.
Best to say nothing at all than to say too much.

Different cultures are different.

so it's okay to have a clear bias and give preferential treatment to people in your own culture?

It depends. If they just put out the same blanket statement for weeks it would feel like window dressing.

But if they took just an ounce of care and said what they're doing, or how they're doing it, progress made etc etc it would go a long way.

aka Public Relations 101.

Passing the buck doesn't work in today's world where we have information at our fingertips and the power of millions of users being able to call their bluff / BS (with verifiable proof).

ok where are you going to get said proof? us as gamer individuals with zero connections have no way of getting such information. and calling bluffs means nothing to the holders of the information, and usually the less said the better.

people just want to be busybody's and you just end up being a karen instead.
