Alpha invites

[Faiyez]

The very first phase (where the servers are most likely going to crash and be unstable anyway) is JP onry.

You gotta love the cognitive dissonance in statements like this.

The first phase of an alpha test for MMOs is mainly about server balancing and stress testing. In the 1.xx first alpha we would be sat in a login queue for a lot of the window, get on for about 30 mins before getting kicked and being stuck in a login queue again. Servers will always be unstable during the first alpha test because they need fine tuning.

You miss the point.

In The Fox and the Grapes by Aesop, a fox saw some high-hanging grapes and wished to eat them. When the fox was unable to think of a way to reach them, he decided that the grapes were probably not worth eating, with the justification that the grapes are likely not ripe or that they are sour (hence "sour grapes").

This example follows a pattern: one desires something, finds it unattainable, and reduces one's dissonance by criticizing it.
