Politician Archive

We are the people that make up this game... people that have mastered professions... people that have been planning cities for months... the people that make up the whole economy... we are powerful guilds... we are hundreds of people living in cities and leaders of those cities... how long can you ignore us??? how long can you ignore a problem this big... encompassing so many people... how long?

There are so many people counting on getting XP to advance their city... this is a major problem... well... personally I'm ready to give up... I'm tired of waiting around for my XP... it's obviously not coming... because the devs are ignoring us... they obviously don'te give a **edit** about some of the most important people making up this game and don't care if they get what they've all been working for for months now... so this would be the part where I look at the SOE symbol... and raise my middle finger.

Once was the Mayor of Dune City, Lok, Valcyn

I like the comment about 'some of the most important people'. Made me laugh.

I personally run a 70+ Imperial Guild on Intrepid. And yes, i want us to be the best. But do you know what?

NONE of my members including myself are any more special or important then everyone else who pays to play this game. I hope your post doesn't get looked at simply because you think your more deserving then others out there.

Looks like a rant to me. Arent those not supposed to be posted here? Hmmmm. What's this thingy do here where it says report abuse to moderator. Let's find out.

This post paid for by the campaign for "End posts that make me stupider for reading them campaign"

hey i completely understand where soell is coming from, the guys angry and has every right to be angry, especially with this drawn out silence about what they plan to do with ppl's missing xp, cities could quite easily go down the drain if no xp is given to the mayor's who are missing what they deserve and have worked hard for.

Cities didnt start ranking until Thursday evening (in the central time zone which is where the devs are). Do you expect them(theDEVS not CS) to know every single problem less than 24 hours after it starts occuring? I think that is unreasonable and then expect them to come in over the weekend to fix it. Based on the time issues between when the city ranked and when the xp was awarded for people it sounds like a database issue and was not something they could have seen on TC. I think this will be a top priority Monday. I dont expect to see people on regularly during the day in the middle of the week I dont think that you should expect the Devs to be on in the middle of the weekend. And if they did come in on the weekend do you expect them to waste part of thier weekend posting to all of these posts instead of working on the issue? Is it really going to kill you to wait until Monday? I mean holy crap have afreak out attack. They have a whole week to get it taken care of before it stunts the growth of your city.

"Do you expect them(theDEVS not CS) to know every single problem less than 24 hours after it starts occuring?"

I'd expect them to know it BEFORE it occurs. That's what testing is. This game is notoriously undertested. (And as one of the first 100 testers, I know what I'm talking about)

"I think that is unreasonable and then expect them to come in over the weekend to fix it."

Last I know, weekends are not deducted from my monthly fee.

" Is it really going to kill you to wait until Monday? "

Assuming this will be fixed on Monday is asuming a lot. Politicians are the current victims of the "Don't answer, they'll calm down sooner or later" SoE policy. Along with half the other professions of the game, that is.

Actually.

They know about the problem

They admitted they know about the problem

They said it will be fixed by the next patch.

The problem is that the current state has not been fixed, and its well on the way to being swept under the carpet.

CONCACT YOUR LOCAL CSR, or did you not see the other posts? log onto the chat and talk to a CSR. They will handle the problem.

How are they supposed to know? Last I checked God is not on the Dev team. Im sure I can find 10 things you do not know that have to do with what you do for a living.

Woudl you like some cheese with that whine? I mean boohoo. You agreed to pay by the month when you gave the myour credit card number. For all you know they figured the cost without the weekends in it and you are getting each weekend free. It is not like you cant use the entire game either. There is a bug that limits you from accessing a very small part.

Sorry you have a stick up your butt and are being impatient. I think you need to take some valium and play with blocks instead of a computer. The mere fact that you have a computer should mean that you are used to bugs.

"Sorry you have a stick up your butt and are being impatient"

I'm only going to answer to that, since the rest isn't really worth it. I have every right to be impatient since I've been testing and playing this game for longer than you (and longer than anybody except 99 people, in fact), I know how long the dev team takes to solve something, issues from beta 1 are STILL not fixed, etc etc. I HAVE been patient, only to be shown it's useless, so I might as well rant while I'm at it. (FYI, the chat system has been broken for 16 months now and still doesn't work properly, I don't think waiting 16 months is impatience.)

"It is not like you cant use the entire game either"

Actually, with the current crashes, I could argue otherwise.

I quote from my ticket on this issue:

"Greetings CSR-NormP here. You will not gain experience for each vote. You should get experience on a weekly timer for your actions. Please close your ticket if you are no longer in need of assistance. I wish you well and the best of luck with your city."

I have been waiting since THURSDAY NIGHT for this response!

Are you kidding me? We do not gain experience for each vote! Did they change something, what is this?

We had 32 people in our city, I got elected, they had all voted BEFORE the city advaced and I got ZERO politician XP and this is the response I get to my ticket.

the CSR was wrong. you do get XP per vote. you just don't get it until the weekly timer is done.
