Gender-locked PCs usually occur when a lot of the story includes audio dialogue, and especially when the dialogue includes animation of the character. It's a lot less stress on the engine and the hardware to limit the variables, so they just pick one. Even more so if the game is a sequel to something that also had…
If Cryptic/PW uses spam blockers (which I hope they do), if there is a failure in one of the links in the chain (as happened to me twice in the past two weeks -- Stop Forum Spam was down for several hours), more spam can make it through. Fortunately for me, I require admin approval of all accounts before they can post, so…
Good to see you back! I would encourage you to apply for a Moderator position -- on the basis of the work on the FAQ if nothing else! (Of course, there is much else to base it on, too.)
1. What are some pros and cons of a long vs a short beta? Long: We have a better chance at a good and well-tested game, but we have to wait longer for the release.

1. Since the Cryptic/PWE forum merge, there's been a dearth of recognizable forumites from the original Neverwinter forum posting. I'd put the number of those who transferred to the PWE model somewhere in the 5-10% mark. Do you agree? In three sentences or less, what do you feel can be done about it? Frankly, not much --…
Ah -- scrolling. THAT is my issue. I don't have a 30" screen, but I shouldn't have to to avoid the problem I'm having. Every page I go to, the very first thing I have to do is scroll down. Even to post this reply, I had to scroll down to get to the text field. There's far too much static space at the top of the page. I…
