Sherk, you say you tried to be polite, but in previous post, you stated you did not want to point fingers and name names, yet you did. First by naming events done by a guild that are so easily recognized it is almost funny, and Second by coming out a truely naming TI.
Udyfastu is right. We should all be ashamed of ourselves, Players and GM's alike. We allowed a simple issue to blow up until it is a glaring "Black Eye" on the game.
It pains me to admit that I needed a crystal clear example and it was the best I could find. And once TI came out in the open defending the process... well it was kind of pointless to avoid saying who it was. I still tried to refrain from being outright rude after all the provocations I have been exposed to. And trust me, that was hard as hell.
Of course, it's hard to promote the great community spirit when people are trying to make you feel like an evil ***** drama queen for trying to explain why some people are disgruntled and/or unsubbing, since it didn't seem to be clearly understood what the real issue was, at first. Now it seems pretty clear and the CSRs have apparently caught on with the situation.
It was never my intent to try and make TI leave the game. As if I even had the power to do that.
I even said I liked most of you, although some of you must not like me back very much at the moment... and I guess I can understand why. Some decisions are sometimes very hard to make. I hope you all won't be angry at me for too long.
Let's hope for the best in the future... and don't hate each other too much while I'm away, because I'm not unsubbing and I will be back... soon (TM).

Why would you think you matter enough for people to hate you over a game is beyond me. But you like to create drama you always been known for that Sherk. dont worry we will be here when you are back.
One thing is for sure they need to get together and come out with a Official Stance on this cause atm each CSR has said a different Thing.(except Sengosha she is smart enough to not get involved in drama)
Either way you only cost the game only 12 accounts cause alts that people
cant use are being unsubbed. roughly the cost to rent a server so WG should
thank the 4 Roleplayers posting here for that.
On a side note your game that was all Roleplay is over and will never come
back. Theres only a handfull of players left and we are mostly Pvpers
get over it.

Meh, You are all blind. By continuing this thread we are losing potential and current accounts. Who wants to play an older game where the "established" community is bickering over individual play styles?

The situation is far from being as horrible as it seems... I've seen quite a few old faces return yesterday that haven't been seen for the longest time. And I can only hope that the ones who were going to unsub will now reconsider, since the rules have been clarified and will now be enforced as they were supposed to be.
I understand that 12 alts is a big sacrifice, considering the amount of time, gear and sub money invested into them, but I'm affraid to say, it is a bigger loss for the guild than for the server. My very sincere sympathies and thankfulness for your financial support to the Arispotle server. I'm positively sure this sacrifice is deeply appreciated although some people will never openly admit it.
I'm glad to hear that TI will NOT be gone and I'm sure you can all still kick some major butts even without their assistance. I wish you all the best and funnest challenges for the future.
On that peaceful note : Cheers !

This might shock you all, but lets look at the positives! (Yes, that's right, I said
positives!)
a) It seems our complaints have actually provoked a response from the real sleeping dragons(the devs) which as we know is no mean feat, and may potentially result in the CSR team being allowed to do their job.
b) This forum is now looking more lively than it's been since... umm, errr... well a bloody long time ago!
and c) at the very least it's keeping some tools busy harassing people out here instead of in game. (for a bit anyway
)

I hope CSR's read this and finally learn
that multiboxing and in specific case synergy
does not break any rules and is not botting.
You have to manually press the keys and in no
way automates anything and does not interfere
with the client in any way.
now lest see what other excuse they come
up with to keep this drama alive and kicking.
