Global Alpha Test Start Date

Yeah yeah, you're just "ticked off" in a calm way. Well actually, you only said "ticked" because you're "tickeld pink". lol You're the calm version of "ticked off". Yeah, whatever.

Quite calm. You may want to notice that despite you continuing to miss the point, to misrepresent my opinion and to generally derail the discussion over and over, I'm not insulting you. While you are indeed insulting others. And standing by your alleged "right" to continue insulting them (which, believe me, is utterly hilarious).

Guess I'm not the angry one here.

Only to those in denial. lol

Claiming that those that deny the factual nature of your claims are "in denial" doesn't make them more factual.

"Rare issue"? Dude, try reading the forums sometime. It will definately bring you up to speed. lol

I believe my post count and yours shows quite clearly who needs to read the forums more.

... or maybe who needs to read them less... >_>

But feeling entitled to rewards for some reason you yourself made up in your own head is. And when you whine when you don't get it, you're a whiner. And a crybaby.

No, they're individuals that have been educated by companies (SE Included) over the years to the concept that customer loyalty is to be rewarded, which is, mind you, a quite logical and balanced concept.

There's a difference between "insulting someone" and pointing out the truth. People crying over not getting something no one at SE said they were entitled to anyway are being whiners and crybabies. (shrug)

Is funny how you claim you're not insulting people, and you continue to stress on those insults in the same sentence. "whiner" "crybaby" and the like are all derogatory remarks. As such they're factually insults. You should refrain from them.

LOl As is your obvious inability to get the point before it sails way over your head. (and it's getting funnier as well) My point is, it's wise to keep things in perspective. A mistake by a company can be devastating. But if it's not, it's best to deal with it in such a matter. You keep bringing up what "might" happen or what "could" happen, and no one disputes that serious mistakes can be made, and can be damaging. My point is, SE's blunder is not as serious as you are pretending it is.

The little fact that you're missing is that no one is pretending anything. You're continuing to try and refute a point that no one argued. It's a blunder. Serious or not, it's besides the point. Blunders should be avoided.

And companies that blow a blunder out of proportion and deal with it accordingly waste time when they could be focusing on something more important. Which is just as potentially devestating.

Why, I believe you're in no position to assess SE's resources, and to decide whether they have the time to amend whatever mistake they make.

I'll give you a hint: they have a PR department and plenty community managers exactly for that purpose. "wasting" their time can hardly be "devastating". That's what they're paid for.

Different situation. The game was atrocious when it first came out. We're talking about misinformation about alpha testing invites. Which isn't a big deal. Really, it's not. lol

You are aware that you saying that something isn't a big deal "really" doesn't make it so, right?

People are being whiny crybabies. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and looks like a duck, I'm calling it a duck. (shrug) Deal with it. lol

In a discussion forum in which the rules state clearly that demeaning others isn't allowed, it remains disallowed no matter how much you *think* it's justified.

The rules don't state "be polite and respectful to others unless they deserve a thrashing". They state "be polite and respectful to others" period.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm running out of popcorn.

i'll share what's left of mine. There's only so many times even the most patient person can try to explain the same very basic concepts before he gets bored.
