Bounty Hunter Archive
Thread: well...
This is just an observation but SOE tends to reply to more possitive posts not negative ones. If they can help relations with the people on the forums then they will try to get a little personal like Q3po has done. But there is so much anger in these forums as of late that i doubt that they will even take a peep at anything here. Also understand that yes they do have lives too.
And they are responding to that anger, though not directly, but through action.
They may not respond to THIS post, but they will fix things that need fixing. It's just taking time...everything is broken!
So we as Bounty Hunters, hopefully, are trading off fix time now, for better content and ability later.
Once we are addressed, I suspect we will be addressed BIGTIME. Not a couple fixes, then to heck with them for a while.
I personally would like to see a bunch of little fixes slowly instead of one big fix, since if they mess up the big fix, we are going to spend months waiting for the thing to be fixed again.
I personally am loosing faith, Fast.

What exactly does Q do anymore anyway? He hardly has any communication with the community any more, TH is doing all that.
I am keeping my fingers crossed Wepps, but I suspect it will be a long time before it comes and then will be so vast that it fixes 2 things and breaks 10. Then when we complain about the newly broken things they will huff and puff that we are never happy while the other professions dismantle every statistic and burn up the boards with their whining and jealousy. Why can't they just give us a shred of hope? Tell us what they are thinking about doing and when they think they might be able to do it. That way we could talk about these proposed changes instead of waking up to some catastrophic mess that is heaved onto the servers like chum in a shark pool. I for one am losing hope and my confidence in them was shot to heck a long time ago.

1. Where we are in line.
2. What fixes are scheduled.
3. What enhancements are scheduled.
4. What the ETA on those fixes and enhancements are.
5. What their responses are to our requests for other fixes that are NOT scheduled.
To be honest, I want those...
Now.
He's the community relations manager, you want him to fix bugs?
i never said anything about him fixing bugs. i said about him relating to the community - a simple message on the bh forum - "we hear you, we're working on it" would go a long way.
Normally I'd agree with you, but here's the rub.
Prolonged silence like this is not uninentional. He is not speaking to us on purpose. This is an intentional silence.
Koster said in his famed powerpoint presentation that one of the ways to make problems go away is to ignore them and hope. We cannot let that hope bear fruit.
If the intentional silence is to not raise false hopes as to when something will happen, they should still tell us what is going to happen. They should tell us that they hear us, understand our woes, and whether or not they agree with us that our woes are in fact problematical.
They're still blowing it, and I'm not terribly encouraged by this. We are admittedly only four days into the month that I was promised, but I have to tell you that I am not seeing a good faith effort on their part.
They are intentionally withholding information from the entire community for reasons unknown. They need to learn their jobs.
I'll probably never be a correspondent, since I'm such a firebrand and am so hard on them about their (multiple) failings, but I like to think I'm able to have an impact on this game nonetheless.
If by this Saturday I don't see some form of communication from development in this forum or to Wepps that I find to be personally satisfying, I will start a petition asking for it, and will compile a list of user IDs of every single person that signs it with affirmation and will physically mail that list to Smedley & Co. asking that we get some direct verbiage about what is on the plate for us.
Anyone with me on this?
We had a 5 page post going on swg discussion and during that time there was tons of posts from anywhere to tailor to cheff. We really are the red headed step children of the galaxy.
