"Bogdanoff! The maintenance deadline is almost finished! the forum is on fire!" Bogdanoff: Do it *adds another hour of maintenance* Bogdanoff: When the maintenance ends, let them log in and buy from Zen Shop. Then kill them, and find anozer"
This is sole about them not being able to take two mins to let people know on Twitter or Facebook or here....
forget twitter and faceache, the forum always comes first, its there platform, and its always the first port of call players come to when there's issues, getting to reliant on social media platforms

Its been so many years since mod 5 when this game was so AMAZING and things like this still happen over the years... The name of this game must change to Neverlearn and the Halloween event to ''Neverdrop the freaking sash Muhahahaha!!!'' xD

Man, some things never change...for example, I had 6 toons and was away from the game for FIVE years, only came back about a month ago....but some thigns never change...like the fact that ArcGames doesn't give a damn about its playerbase *Kekw*
i'm fine with cryptic losing income, i have no problem with it at all..it isnt like they use what they have to improve their service, gameplay, hire competent coders to go over issues that have lingered on for years, they just stick a 'temporary' band aid on things- promise to fix them at a later date but never get round to it (almost 2 years now we have had those 'stand in the circle' circles in dungeon entrances), and so now they are just accepted as part of the game. it's a poor show all around. it's just a shame that they dont care as much for the game as the people that play it, and sink cash into it.

It's a common tactic of such devs to "work the horse till it dies" without even taking care of it, then move on to the next workhorse they can milk for cash
How can a restart broke the zen market? Did you change the max rate to 1000 lol ?
I was wondering the same, but then I found the anouncements of the limited time keyring and VIP 20% off. So I suppose a mistake happened trying to implement those two...
I'm not a Cryptic fanboi here but I have worked on coding projects where they try to hand you someone else's code. You can spend years coding and know it well but if they hand you a tangled mess of Christmas lights (code that's not well-commented and/or poorly designed objects) there's a big labor effort just to figure out what does what. Even putting it in a debugger in step mode takes time.
Again, I'm as disgruntled as a lot of you are about the bug fixes and stuff.
in 10 mins we'll know if they have any shred of dignity and just extend it indefinitely till further notice instead of baiting us with 1 hour extensions
@mothified#3940 I got back 2 months ago to NWPC after 3 years break cuz real life happens outside. When i load my poor Acid (CW) and i see everything is diferent... Passed from a BiS CW to a strugling and health stone consuming Wizard with all the powers messed up... Still i give it a chance and to be honest im enjoying the game. But im not realling enjoying it today =P
world also went down fast.instead of 30 min timer it went down in 10 mins after announcment and i needed 100 more marks to buy event companion. i almost had it and world went down couldnot even buy companion. get your HAMSTER together cryptic
@decioteixeirapt when I came back to the game, everything was so different and I was so disoriented that I just scrapped my cleric and fighter to make a warlock and paladin and relearn the game from scratch :P once I do, I will get back to my other 4 classes and see what changed. in the meantime, they make me gold (which I turn to AD) and have gained 5 levels only from prayers :') they were all were all T1 and T2, mostly because I am a good AH playa ;)

Do I hear 30 minutes?! Yes we have a bid for 30 minutes can I get an hour? Yes 1 hour do i hear 2 more hours? Man the bids on this maintenance auction just keep going up with no winners in sight...

> so in 10 mins, will the maintenance get another extension? most likely
We should probably start taking bets, make the most out of the situation, ya know? :P

Q: What do you get when you combine a dyslexic, an agnostic, and an insomniac?
A: Someone who sits up at night wondering if there really is a doG.
