Being in a linkshell (soon-to-be company) that has a steady subcommunity of Mumble users, I've had the pleasure of hearing murf rant about this one at length, which can get hysterical. Companies that like to world-build simply don't often have realistic celestial bodies. I wonder how hard it would be to fix the moon program...
Probably a little bit of each, lol.
The two major points of the lore forum are met, however. We have a place to talk about this stuff and the Localization forum is now free of grammatically correct ambiguities. What vagueries they intend to clarify for us is up to them - but I'm sure anything the community at large is interested enough in to keep a thread going will at least get a nod someday.
That said, it's been a quiet week. The LOC squad is probably drowning in beta phase two Grand Company content and phase three city preparation.
