    The only GMs in PWI are apparently forum GMs. You will never find one in the game unless they are afk. So the blame for any issue easily falls onto them because they are obviously absent.

    If GMs don't want to be blamed then tell us who to blame. They can't tell us? Well then we'll keep blaming the GMs until we ragequit.

    Im done posting on these stupid forums. This game has 6 maybe 12 months tops before it either shuts down or the numbers drop below 200 active players per server.

    You know the last person that said the servers will shut down in 6months to a year was about a year and a half ago. And that has been said ever since....hm still going 3 years....

    And if you want to rage at someone, send it to the Devs, you can get their emails off the main site of PW-China. There so now you know.

    OK, at this point I wanna set something clear. Don't blame frankie or any other GM/MOD from this game, just because it's not their fault. They are just following orders, its just their job and I trully believe that they would do anything to make this game a better one for the sake of the whole community if they could, but they have to pay bills just like you and me. The ones to blame are the higher tops of PWE like the COE and so on..

    I'm just curious about what will happen to frankie and the others if this game finally shuts down forever, hope they get employed in another game of PWE. I wish you guys the best luck you can have =)

    Okay very nice post ^-^
    But are you sure about that? We say GMs but okay maybe People wanna say it to that "whole community" what they think. I think all the time than PWI get all same updates und sales like the MY server, but thats not true! Look on the my website. The dont selling pack all the time.

    All this must be comming from PWE. Or ?

    I agree with the OP's post.

    We have seen numerous times that Frankie and the crew came to forums not that happy to be the bearers of bad news. They do seem to be people that listen to the community and it's inhuman to bash on them. Like people said, they do the job they were assigned to. I would be willing to bet that if they were all payed employees with the actual power to change stuff (in game, other then random events and such), some fixes would have come much earlier.

    It's the dudes back there in China that mess things up and then they bring it upon us. Sadly the whole company must be worth a fortune and a real office beeing localized in the US with people actually responsible of all the coding must be unthinkable. So till that miracle happnes, just bare with them :)
    Proud supporter of the new expansion. Sure it has it's share of bugs, like any games. But for a pure farmer/grinder, that's a whole lot of new mobs to go beat up b:chuckle

    I fixed it a little b:bye

    btw... how many milions players have PW? do you know that less than 10% of community know about forums. those polls are joke.

    10% is actually quite a large sample size for most polls. You do realize when research is done not very single person is tested before claiming x% of people are affected by something right?

    The thing is, most of the game's problems can't be blamed on the GMs, and certainly not on the mods. But they do have to own up to what is their fault.

    This last week has been a prime example of that. Have we forgotten what frankie wrote in his post trying to soften the blow of a free-PK SP? It wasn't sincere, it wasn't honest, I'm pretty sure it wasn't even factual. Why couldn't he have just told us that the devs royally screwed up?

    Was he tounge-tied? Was he bullied into doing it by his superiors, as per his job description? If he did this of his own accord, then yes, we DO have something to blame on him. If he was backed into a corner doing his job, well... that's more forgivable for HIM, but it speaks to the greater problem of the PWE higher-ups.

    Either way, I think we're owed an apology. -_-

    Not disagreeing with the OP here. I just think we're all too caught up in the rush of "yaaay SP is fixed!" to want to take a look at the facts right now. :-/

    Oh, so you want him to call the devs stupid and to say they can't tell their elbows from their *** huh? Suuure, you go tell your boss that, see you at the unemployment office ...

    It's a shame people actually think this.

    Volunteers or paid, when you become the face of a company you take a lot of heat when either yourself or the company displeases the public. My perspective is that they are part of public relations and going into the position, they should be well aware of what may happen. Furthermore, if they want to represent a lie or put forth a lie, or present utter **** like a cash shop item causing instability then they deserve what's coming.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but, as human beings and being on the inside of the company they know what is coming in terms of new developments, issues, patches, etc. they also know that feeding us fellow supporters of this game is pretty dam stupid. They have every capability to think and put forth suggestions to whom they report to. Respect the chain of command, follow orders, but do it to what extent? To the point where you make yourself look stupid?

    There's only a couple of real outcomes here.

    A. your boss agrees with you about the issue, but has no power to change it. (very similar to the current situation here with GM's.)

    B. Your boss has the power to change it and just doesn't care so he basically ignores you.

    c. You get fired because you were very unprofessional in showing your disgust.

    D. People listen, things get fixed.

    o.o wow I'd never expected that this thread will grow, nice. Anyways I'd rly love to see that frankieraye itself would just post here that my suggestions are right and that he would do more if he could, but I guess he would be getting a hell load of trouble then xD but in our hearts we know the truth b:cute But honestly, I wouldn't be a GM on a game like this, beeing flamed and stuff nearly everytime the devs **** up something, just because in this game that means at least every maint...that job's gotta be rly hard I guess and I think very few ppl could actually hold on like that, hope you guys don't "burn-out" anytime soon.

    Any job in customer service is like that. These guys have to put up with a lot. Both from what we, the community, dish out, and also from the limitations imposed on them by their superiors in what they can say to us.

    It's a thankless job, but we'd like to say "thanks" anyhow.

    To be quite honest... after the Orb sale **** up and the completely ridiculous excuse given by Frankie (the GM) for their removal, everyone in this thread who've just finished praising the GMs for their good work and what not... must now feel like complete tools. IJS.

    Yeah ok, we all know that frankies "Emergency Maint" was a big fat lie, but I also assume that he had his reasons. I think they wanted to earn loads of money with this sale but realized that it's a extrem big mistake putting those orbs as cheap as they were in the CashShop and now they are trying to clean the mess up, and besides which company would ever admit that they made a mistake =? And I still do believe that frankie did this on purpose to save his own butt, but I think he had no choice, if you were responisble for a mess like that, how would you react =? I know coming out with the truth is surely the best way, but thats kinda hard you know. When you got enough stress, maybe a little lie can help depress it, so give them a break and you ppl know just as well as I do that if they want this sale to return, it will return xD Besides it's just one day ago that ppl complained that this sale would break the game and now their complaining that they want it back, but it's always like that, so fine for more, thought I just state it here xD

    Still GMs are not to blame, if PWE just would take at least 1% of their income to hire a team of ingame GMs, then things would be outstanding better then they are now.

    BTW how many GMs do we know..frankie, monkey, shin, and...?
