So is there any news on whether we'll go to the next seasons of arena like they have in china or we'll be stuck on season 2 for another year? :|

    I'm kinda doubting we'll see another arena season, not for a while if at all. The first one was exploited pretty badly, and I recall the staff being hesitant on putting on another one until they could figure out a way to do it without alt armies winning. The only reason I say "not for a while" is that PWCN has apparently made changes to the arena in one of their more recent updates, so things could change if we receive that update in the next year or two.

    I guess it also doesn't help that the staff aren't really communicating with us at all.

    Alt armies are still being used as we speak and I'm sure GM's/ the staff is aware of all of this, they're just really hesitant to make any sort of action, since most of the people doing alts are heavy cashers and since this game has a low population and if they get rid of these people, they'll miss out on the big revenue these individuals give them.

    You are right though, we haven't had any type of communication with anyone from the staff just the moderator of the forums. Really miss kalyst since we really don't know what's going on with any news on this game at all. Wish the new person that they hired to replace kalyst would speak or something, but no, they don't seem to care at all only when it affects their wallets will pwi as a whole react.. Otherwise, it's just tumbleweeds with any type of complaints/posts that we make about this game.

    ..... You are right though, we haven't had any type of communication with anyone from the staff just the moderator of the forums.

    Reminded me to check the open opportunities at PWE:

    San Francisco, California: no specific openings but they would like resumes.
    San Jose, California: like San francisco; no specific openings but they would like resumes.
    Redwood City: Producer (Bejing Monitoring Team), Sr. HR Generalist (Human Resources), Sr. Live Producer (Product Management), Tax and GL Accountand (Finance), Data Scientist (Product Management), System Engineer (Linux), Online Marketing Specialist (Marketing), Director of User Acquisition (Marketing) and Data Engineer
    Amsterdam, Netherlands: influencer & Partnership Specialist (Marketing)

    Think we need to wait for the 'marketing victims' if we ever want some communication. The 'influencer' would be nice: telling us to spend as much money as possible lol. For now we only get updates via Facebook: the boutique sales, charge/spend rewards and the most important thing to communicate to us: the fan art. :D Think even the forum moderators have a hard time getting info.
