Doesn't matter how the player feels. Lindelu is restructuring AO as she sees fit and if you don't agree, remember, she's running the show. Might as well save your breath.

    I think this is a relevant admission of reality. In fact, I don't see how anyone would question that. FC is a company (a publicly traded one), it's products and services and their customers don't tend to have a 'compromising' relationship. No single person should think they are going to bully FC on the forums into making a change to the game. The communication is always related to the fact that FC makes a decision to make a change. If it's based on player feedback, they tell us, but most the time, it's not. Lindelu is right and anyone with a sense of how business works understands what she's talking about. Unless you are a shareholder in FC, WE do not have a say in how they run their business. That EVEN comes down to how they implement the newest shiny thing or the way they decide to communicate with us.
    Awwww muffin, need a tissue?

    I honestly expect an "AO NGE" to be on its way, where the current 14 professions will be merged and spliced together to make 5 or 6 "classes". It's fairly obvious that the current dev team is undermanned and overwhelmed by the thought of rebalancing all of the current professions. So it only makes sense ( from a dev point of view ) to decide that, instead of band-aiding 14 profs, they can handle completely re-doing 5 or 6 classes. It also fits the obvious need to filter and streamline AO for the casual chump, er...player they're hoping to attract.

    Don't worry, after the rebalance there will be... oh, wait, no, they'll still be the best.
    I am wiser than any god or scientist, for I have squared the circle and cubed Earth's sphere, thus I have created 4 simultaneous separate 24 hour days within a 4-corner (as in a 4-corner classroom) rotation of Earth. See for yourself the absolute proof.

    2002 perhaps. But I thought ellipsis at the end of my sentence was a giveaway for the sarcasm...

    If RK2 pop is actually more than RK1 pop, the game is in real trouble.

    I couldn't believe logging into RK2 and seeing Omni OOC chat completely dead for the hours I was on. Only time I say activity in the chat was a few ( as in 3 ) posts in the trade channel.

    Your logic, and apparently FC's as well, is why other game companies are making titles that people want to play and FC isn't. Just sayin'.

    Tip #743: As noted in Tip #244, tea bags have an infinite variety of uses. However, there's always one jerk who will want to give you crap over drinking tea. Particularly if in a new town, use this as an opportunity to assert yourself. Any drunken idiot can win a bar fight. It takes a real man to win a bar fight while enjoying a cup of Earl Grey.

    Oh, right. Lets also plant Beast on Noob Island so it constantly kills all the new players - they're new so it will seem normal.
