    There's no indication that other keys will be awarded just because keys are taken away. Be nice, don't make them public, and give them the chance to participate and hopefully provide some good feedback.

    I didn't see the post is he new? Unless he was flappin the key around shaking his rump at us all laughing, I see no reason to take his key. He's very lucky indeed.


    Nevermind...I found him..heh

    The problem is there has to be zero tolerance when it comes to the NDA or everybody will start to become a bit more lose when it comes to the game.

    The second problem is look at the choke hold cryptic has on info being released. I doubt there will be any leeway for his slip. IF its even real.

    He probably didn't realize he was suppose to keep it to himself, I mean, who reads the fine print anyhow.
    Maybe this is the first time he's had the chance to test a game and probably hasn't been following the forums or would know this.

    For one, posting a thread about it's not going to help matters, only amplify the problem.

    Well lets wait for word of what will happen I guess. Like I said, I dont really want them to lose there key if it was a mistake.

    I posted about one week ago that a friend of mine with no friends or family at neither Cryptic or PWE received keys to invite him to some "playtests". Basically he is allowed to play/test Neverwinter in some predefined schedules.

    For some reason that I am yet to understand(I didn't receive any kind of explanation or personal message), the moderators chose to censor my comment going as far as to completely delete it as if it had never existed. Who knows, maybe they'll delete this post too? Maybe the whole thread?

    Fact is that yes, random people throughout the world are already playing Neverwinter, though it's still Alpha stage as far as I know.

    I've read every word of every NDA I've ever agreed to. It's important stuff, and NDA's rarely are very heavy on the legalese.

    Alpha Keys are a hoax
  • gillrmngillrmn Member Posts: 7,800 Arc User

    I will explain it to you why NDA is important.

    Think of yourself as an angel working in the factory of god where he maketh the bodies.

    Alpha is he gived you access where you put together the bones, the muscle, pick up the gut and put it in, then coat it with skin.

    Now think of one angel taking out his phone and making a video of it.

    Now suppose the body we angels made was a very beautiful woman.

    She goes on earth, falls in love.

    Her lover sees the video the idiotic angel made and commits suicide because he can't take all that gore.

    Now tell me, does that angel deserve to be an angel? seriously?

    Technically Alphas are much more important now since its when most companies do their QA testing rather then beta's. It seems to be that Most companies have slowly started to use Beta tests as advertising events rather then what they are/were supposed to be for.... That said Cryptic/Perfect World... Seem to atleast try to make the Closed Beta's be testing stages for the game.
    Open Beta's tend to be the Stress tests for the server builds aswell.

    (And yeah its probaly nothing that most people already know.. but somehow i seem to be ranting...)

    Well I'm always hopping that some allow a bit of talk about certain aspects. And some allow discussion with fellow testers in a controlled environment.(Such as a secret section of the forums) Wile others don't even allow that unless in game with the other tester.
