    He's already assigned to other projects. He's the CM for Jade Dynasty, we're the side project.

    Question is .. will he also only have 0.01% of his time for us, like Stormshade, or maybe
    at least a little more :redface:

    TT's already spent more time on the forums in his first week than StormShade spent in an entire month :redface:

    The only thing i don't want to be is treated like JD (Jade Dynasty), because we're not.
    TT needs to learn how we (the CO forums) operate and give us a chance, instead of treating us like a side job :frown:

    DISCLAIMER: The preceeding was an opinon on what i'd like to see happen, not a statement of fact on what has happened :wink:

    Were there any specific reason for that personal attack other than that your opinion differs from mine?

    SS was at least a little more active at the beginning of this year, but after a while it all
    went down to the state we had the past months.

    I just hope we will not get the same with TT now :redface:

    I believe the reason SS didn't spend much time here is because If memory serves he was also pressured to help with NWO.TT has more time to spend here because hes not entirely divided to more than one game as much as SS.He does work on JD aswell as CO,but he hasn't been pulled to one or the other like SS with NWO.

    Don't get me wrong here but I do want to be treated like the CO forums and not the JD,STO,PWI forums.Now I do know that there has been copied and pasted post by CMs before from another game,but thats only because of the shortstaffing I think

    The region ban has STILL not been fixed? Seriously? Are they just throwing money in the fire? Is PW run by the KLF?

    The region ban issue has not even gotten an answer. That's how much PW cares about making money from this game... :rolleyes:

    I only hope if enough people flood the Ask Cryptic with the question that we'll finally get something resembling answer. I'm just not getting my hopes up too high...

    P***ing away your international market is definitely a brain-dead stupid thing to do when running a business especially when it has already previously serviced an international market to begin with. And let's face it, there's no way in hell that PWE is setting up any localized versions of CO in specific regions, at all.

    TT will tell us whatever his bosses allow him to tell us. At least this time he's not giving empty promises, followed by disappearing for six months. :rolleyes:

    Evidently, this wasn't one of our most pressing questions... :rolleyes:

    And no talk about the chat-ban issue either. Just lots of talk about a lot of cool stuff that could possibly, maaaybe happen... just not in the immediate future, or with any sort of certainty.

    Maybe we'll get the answer to this (and the chat ban) by December with the next Until report. They could put a little bow on it and say it is an early gift, or perhaps they'll add it in with one of those gamble bags, like I suspect they'll try with the discount coupons mentioned in the current Until report.

    Starfleet dental? I guess they need it, given Kirk's propensity for fist fights. :)

    And here's continuing to hope for as quick and as positive a resolution for the RBPs as possible.

    Fleets are going to lose some great players.

    Yup, and they're gonna miss on the chance of those players hopping onto NWO as well--or of people that aren't from those banned regions not trying NWO out of distaste for the company's practices.

    I think those players are already lost.

    Region-lock is already implemented for STO. There's a forum thread started by some poor sod who was wondering they they couldn't log in one day, only to discover that he/she is from a banned region.

    I was afraid it would eventually reach one of the games,maybe CO will have quite some time before it comes,or hopefully,the region ban never comes,that takes away the one thing that makes MMORPGs fun,playing with people from all over,this takes that fun away,not to mention the taking away of the entire game for some,which is really unfair to them,why did they even think about a region lock in the first place?

    Wow just wow..what a shower of prats for banning customers that have supported the game over the years.

    And it seems they did it by stealth...prats and cowards.

    If this is true it is DISGUSTING and horrendous customer services.

    This way of treating customers is one of the reasons I'm going silver and won't be returning to gold until Cryptic start treating customers better and actually starting to develop this game again and stop jumping from one idea to the next without finishing the last. :frown:

    TT said a few weeks ago vet players can from those areas can still play.

    This turned out to be a truth after MUCH HASSLE and doing of things my friends from Russia are still playing they just cant access the forums or buy zen .

    Seriously these people have paid for LTS and like I said before full forum access was part of the original deal now they can never post here put hackers can post WATCH SOME **** SPORT HERE , its BS thats what it is :/

    But at least old players from those areas got grandfathered in. But no knew players from those areas it seems :(

    Play through Steam and use Steam wallet to buy ZEN.

    I think the biggest issue is despite being customers, they have no access to support.
    In-game ticket submission is a huge fail compared to ticket submission on PWE website.

    And so far, no announcements were made regarding the decision made to allow players who signed up before the merger to continue playing.

    Shows you how much of an after-thought these players are to PWE and just how much value they have.
