There's prodding the devs, and then there's whipping a dead horse.

If it is a dead horse, why are we still riding it?

Because we were promised a horse so incredible that it would have no problem winning the Kentucky Derby (the biggest American horse race for those who don't know). The man from the stables keeps telling us he's making some incredible food, keeps showing us video of winning horses that have eaten the food, but then tells us that the food takes a long time because the plumbing needs to be reworked. He then seems to always disappear back into the kitchen... Meanwhile my poor horse hasn't eaten a thing for months but I'm confident that food is going to change things...

You know after I got done typing that I realised just how bad that sounds.

The whinging is the dead horse, not the game.

I don't think the fanbois realize that most of us just want to keep prodding the devs. Every time I see peopel complimenting people without reason I feel like it makes them complacent. I haven't seen enough changes to the game to make me think otherwise.


Complaining about WoW and lack of depth? WoW certainly has depth, thats not why it gets boring. I wish Ryzom's patch notes had the depth that WoWs did, each time they patch ters a list of like 100 differnt things, and you know what?? they patch based on what they hear from the customers. As opposed to the popular conception that Nevrax is so blinded by their vision that they don't listen to us, which is what the reviewers say.

patching is not enough. What is with the promise to care about selling items on ebay ? I did a search on ebay.de and had 250 hits on gold. Damn they try to get 130 Euro for 1000 ingame gold (Makes me also wonder how they make this money ingame. 1000 G is s lot). What is with the promise to care about playernames (i mean the vulgar ones), at least on the RP servers ?

We need a criticism board. There everybody can complain and i can just skip it.

no to make fun of everyone here:

There is a commercial from Renault Clio in which the driver makes worldwide records in arcades on the racing games. OMG, he is so awesome and he all learned it from the Renault Clio. Man, I am going to buy myself a Clio too, I am gonna be a 7331 h4xx0r on Testdrive or whatever these games are called nowadays.
Now I got myself a Clio and for one, I cant seem to find an arcadehall and a parking space at the same time. Also did the Clio fail in making me look cool and make hordes of goodlooking babes jump in my car for no reason.
Do I hate the Clio? Of course not! It is nice, reliable, comfortable and inexpensive transportation. It has all the finesses I expect from a french car, all in such a small package that can still bring 4 adult and their surfboards to the south of spain for a penny *without breaking down*!
It has it's badsides, a few mentioned above, but why focus on bad thing? It gives me a heartache and makes my mind rot.

So the Morale of this Story:

The more warped the analogy, the better product the French make.
