duh, because its on purpose. They make it sounds like "oops we did this" and we are gunna put it on hold. Ya my ass, they did it on purpose and are gunna keep it that way untill they want to add them back in. Its not a bug.
/agree

This issue has been bugged but is on hold until other bugs are fixed first.
i.e. it sounds like this bug is somehow tied into some other piece of code screwed up by theCU andthey eithercan't isolate it or have to fix the other code first for it to work... which may be a bit of work.
i know i am no programer... (dabbled but not much) but whatever short cuts they take to slim down the download size of the coded files really would be much better served if they had added afew more lines for organization. i would rather have more independant code and a bigger download than say a code that goes to hell when balance passing creatures for the cu, resulting in krayts whostop dropping pearls
What the heck is the point of hunting large monsters/npcs if there's no reward for it? "OH LOOk, I killed a Krayt and all I got was this crappy pearl that won't tune for beans."

They could fix this in a heart-beat of they wanted to.
Remember when they made only ancients drop? Then increased the drop rate? Then decreased it? Then limited it to good or below quality?
Sorry, but I think someone is being intectually dishonest.
I couldn't agree more
did you see how the person was speaking to her? Asking his questions in a fairly rude way? She's nicer than I would have been about it. I would've just addressed all of them at once with a simple "ya so?" if I was her. But she at least took the time to address each and every question individually. And so what she didn't shed more light on the issues? She's not God and probably does not even know herself what is being done with all of those issues. "We're working on it" is the best she can do.
And people need to stop saying "ya right.. i doubtthey're working on it.". If they said they are working on it, they are working on it. They aren't going to keep anything from you and are not going to lie to you on purpose. Simple business laws and ethics denies themthe right to do so.

im not an uber programmer at all but i could fix this bug in 2-5 mins
If you were given all their source code, I'm pretty sure it would take a bit longer than that. You have no clue what methods or classes they use. Or how they interact. Unless you were given some kind of diagram or descriptions of everything, you aren't going to fix the bug in 2 to 5 minutes.

2-5 min?!? LMAO...Based on what. You know absolutly nothing about the actual code of this game unless you are working for SOE...It's like saying...I'm not an uber football player...but I could play in the NFL.
QFE!
Simple..the way the loot tables are set up are so CL200+ mobs drop Premiums...Ok so you change 200 to...90...Ta Da'

Yea, she could've answered that way but I think it's in their agreement to speak calmly even with circumstances like that. But he was right in all the issues he said. And for her to reply in the way you said would also make the player base believe that they were ignoring us.
Wow. So it was put on hold so that the devs could spend time making this game even more un-fun by reducing group XP? Don't forget that's only temporarily pulled out of the game. But in the meantime, while they sort that important stuff out, we get to be satisfied with 'Good' pearls for our time and effort.
The only stabilitythatI find I can count onin this game anymore is that it's consistently screwed up. It'd be nice it if were just made fun and then left more or less alone for a while so we could enjoy it.
forgot who:
