Surtr from the south wielding fire
The gods' swords shine in the darkness, like stars in the night
Mountains collapse into rubble and fiends shall fall
Man walks the road to ruin as the sky splits in two

    That's average-sized.

    Awfully late with the maintenance thread, huh?

    Something else to fix: the chatbox freezing. It gets dangerous at times having to catch up on what's being said.

    But I'm glad to know I'm not the only one rubber banding a lot...
    Not motivated enough to make another PWI siggy

    Why don't you wait until after the Maintenance timer starts to tell us it is happening! I asked on the forum 3 hours ago for "any" info about whether it was taking place or not. Thanks for thinking of the players.....NOT!!!

    Thank you SweetieBot for the patch link.

    Nice job deleting my post. Still an absolute fail on the teams part on notice for maintenance.

    How about addressing this

    Is earning time in all maps indeed intentional? Is it temporary or a forever "fix"
    Is FF hypers being "broken" here to stay? coming back? time table?
    Learn how your own promotions work...Some people are still sitting screwed over from the card promo. I have one toon that has yet to receive payout from the orb promo, which yes, hasn't been two weeks, but other toons have it.

    I am beginning to believe that no one in this company communicates with one another, nor cares about your customer/player base.

    Nice timing on the earning time thingy... I just had my first rage about it when nothing dropped for my warsong team. Was not one with the happy.

    Book or series... this hurts my brain. So many.. its like asking my favorite food, there's stuff I love, but I wouldn't eat it every single day... mm Perogies...ohh sweet n sour chicken balls...ohhh nuu SUSHI! aw.. but... pizza...

    As others said thanks for the L A T E warning, I am sure you had your reasons, you are human after all, they are probably very good/valid reasons none of which you have any obligation to share with us all.

    How to for dummies series.
    PWE should purchase them and learn from them perhaps, maybe something like the avatars on forum will get fixed for a change, who knows.
    Soon™

    I suppose thats why we didnt get an early warning. Probably sparkie had a hangover or something and didnt report on the job b:chuckle
    Lets hope at least that its a hangover and nothing bad causing him to not do his job.



    As for book:

    A thousand splendid suns is the best one i ever read. I am now reading "And the mountains echoed" and it isnt nearly as good. :(
    Everything i write is from PvE perspective unless mentioned otherwise.
