I'm not concerned about what changes have been done with our without your input. Nor am concerned with what you think is fair or positive. You are here to funnel our concerns, not create your own. So keep creating your top five lists and sending them over verbatim.





Wow! And I thought Headroll was bad.

Man, Thunderwulf don't even bother responding to this clown. It just drags you down to the level that this guy is writing on. I really don't care if he has any valid points - so far I see none, but he's being such and **edit** that its not even worth my time to worry about it. It's not worth your time either. You don't need to defend yourself. Just don't even bother reponding. The coolest thing you could do is to just ingore it, and never even respond to him again.




Ignoring those who you disagree with when you are supposed to be relaying their concerns is exactly why programs like this don't work.

But thank you for the definitive argumentum ad hominem. Come back soon.

All Im doing is taking our top concerns before the developers and discussing with them why its broke or how it can be fixed.

If you feel im doing too much to help TKA and want me to just submit a list each week, I can do that. But submitting a list without explanation or discussion is a step back, not forward from where we are now.






The addition of your #6 "pet issue" to the second TK report for example. As far as I know (correct me if I'm wrong), this now over one month old list was the last consolidated list of player concerns that has been submitted. Any concerns submitted by you since then, even if compiled by your own passing glances through threads, would be your own.

Furthermore, not all issues in that thread have even been addressed. Issues 1, 3, and 4 are still outstanding, although it appears 4 is being addressed. These issues need to be relentlessly evangelized until they are resolved to our satisfaction.

Trust me, I wish I could tell you more, but they've asked us not too. Every correspondent is under the same restriction. We are all dying to share more info with you.

But they want to control what information gets released, as is their right. Most of it is just discussion with nothing implemented yet. It wouldn't be fair to get people's hopes up with something, only to have it not happen.

Another reason I think is efficiency. It's much easier making decisions with just a few people, then having thousands of people with different ideas.

So if you can just trust that im trying to make things better for TKA, not worse. If there was something that I didn't think you all would like, I wouldn't support it.






Discussion of what? Our month old issues, or newer ones that we were never queried on?

If the information is shared to the players with a clear expectation level set, then anyone who gets his hopes up only to be disappointed has only himself to blame.

It definitely is easier to make decisions with input from fewer people. It's called ivory tower syndrome.

Without our input, you aren't speaking for us and shouldn't be deciding for us. Any significant ideas pitched by the developers should be cleared by this forum prior to any endorsement on your part.

Dude.



I can honestly say that I had not levelled up in almost a month because of my severelylimited play time. During that month, my pansy tk novice 0/1/1/0 went from almost unplayably weak to being a heck of a lot of fun. Quit complaining about things being broken already, you've just lost perspective.

Ok..


- Pet issue was something the devs told us to do in their instructions. Take the top 5 issues from the consensus and one issue that is important to you.


- The reason more reports weren't submitted was because the devs told us not too send more until our previous had been answered. The second report was never answered.


- If you have issues that you think we are missing, post them.


- The discussions we are having were from the month old issues. Things we have already agreed upon on in past discussions. More defense. Broken specials. Etc..

Thats sounds like an issue you need to take up with the developers. I didn't create their system.


Sorry If Im not doing a good enough job for you, but im just playing by the rules that the dev's have created.
