thanks, spaz, that's the only way I could get in in the first place! here it is again: >Open Task Manager >Select Arc >End Task >Relaunch Arc >Log into another account >Launch PWI >Rinse and repeat.

I agree 100% with greenfire, and great analogy, adrian. It just steadily has gotten worse and worse. Bottom line? what's a good game similiar to this, but not run by pwe? Probably time to move on...

15 hours into update and counting, with broadband. Could someone give us some practical answers as to what's going on and what to do about it?

90% of the mounts and fashion are freakin' ugly anyway. Why can't they make a plain t-shirt for us guys without garbage on it?

Yeah, after 6 hours (broadband) I'm thinking it's not happening at all. If it takes 24 hours (!!!!!) they can shove it.

So after 6 hours + is this update happening or not???? I don't have a bar or anything to show how far along it is. I hate to go off and leave it running, but guess I'll have to. btw what this does to the smaller factions is disgusting. And thanks for taking away the making of Perfect Stones, not as bad as devaluing DQ…

So, Surtr was making too much money (comparatively speaking)? I hope he finds something better. What this game REALLY needs is a GM on each server who actually PLAYS the game, and not with OP gear, but having to work their way through from lv. 1 like we did in the old days. Only then will you truly understand what we're up…

I agree with just about all sunnynight says, with just a couple of exceptions. I think the gold cap at 3,999,900 is fair -- the problem is that gold trading in wc should be made illegal. sunny's right about the current situation being detrimental to all players. Here's the kicker -- it's also detrimental to pwi if they'd…

I don't have those particular problems, but 9 times out of10 I get dc'd multiple times at the Mermaid in Tideswell, often 4-5 times in a row. Often it's difficult just to get out of there, let alone complete the quest. Best of luck to you.

Wait! might want to hold that delete - this actually helped me, I had the same problem. Others might as well. My 'verify' button was grayed out, so by looking at the screenie above I knew which button to push. Verify takes maybe 15 minutes or so. btw, your client was probly closed to the Arc maint. at 7 a.m. - think it was…

No.

NO WARNING?????????????????????????? :*

sensualsoul said: "Would think PWI would know how to turn those items off if we don't right?" referring to items no long of any use. Uh huh. That's why the landscape is littered with useless DQ drops, even after they took the value away. You don't really expect pwi to fix all these little things that make the game more…

Absolutely. You do not own your account, any of your toons or anything on them. How can you legally sell something you don't own? A bad investment anyway, since it could all go "poof" tomorrow and there's nothing you can do about it.

Bottom line: PWI does not care about your convenience or enjoyment of the game, they just want to sell tele's and people who spam are probly mentally deficient enough to spend $100's a month cash shopping. There ya go. Snap into reality, it's all about the money and keeping those players. So yeah, blacklist is your only…

Favorite quest? Any one that works. The Mermaid quest in Tideswell dc's me almost every time. I have to relog 3-5 times to get through it. I seldom turn in the bug report anymore. Can this be fixed??? I used to just skip it, but now need the bloods for the new passive skills. I'm not the only one that has this problem in…

Same. The screen comes up, but there are no characters on it at all.

Whew, never mind :D

Why were these posts deleted? it was really helpful, especially the link.

Any chance we could get an actual answer from a GM rather than guessing??????

At least. It's an unmaintained cash cow. The constant lags and dc problems since the merger are making it impossible. We get a new expansion, but the problems become worse, so what's the point? Why not spend that time fixing what already exists first????????????? Seriously. Why?

Priorities are outta whack - we need the lag and dc issues fixed before we need a new expansion. What good is it if it dun run smooth?

PWI is magic! who else could combine 2 servers and get 6 times the lag and DC's? Not to mention 4 times the world chat idiots. And hold on tight - the worst of HT wc spammers haven't even shown up yet. Maybe they're looking for new material, gosh knows they need some. More likely they're just pouting. Sincere apologies in…

Yeah, I definitely care. That's a bit less to sell to pay repair bills, which already put you in the red after DQ was nerfed, and junk equipment drops were nerfed. I'll go ya one better than shocked, let's try DISGUSTED. People can't afford to buy as much from catshops now, and that hurts everyone including heavy…

I can certainly appreciate your problem, FluffyBlades. The price in shops for a 11* and a 12* D orb for refining is 7-800 MILLION coins. Now, you can make about 100 Million a month IF you have 7-8 accounts loaded with Jolly Jones alts. Go figure. P stones are good, but you can't make enough in a month to match that, or…

My fav science fiction series is the one where pwi keeps promising to give players a new DQ reward system. It's been running for years now, and there's no end in sight. It's suspenseful and has many twists and turns, but they all lead nowhere. It involves unrealistic expectations on both sides, from the players that…

I don't read comic books. Now, I don't suppose it does any good to mention dq drops values or another way to grind coins to replace... nah, dint think so.

Got the picture yet? PWE is completely unresponsive to REAL issues. Don't worry about your new toon's gear or skills, just get excited to spend more dressing up in feathers or more junk like that. Are they deliberately driving the game into the ground? Apparently...

Same problems with the graphics and water setting being stuck.

I don't think even the cashshoppers will be happy for long. They won't be able to sell the high value items from packs, etc. to anyone but each other. Once everyone gets a nice Scroll of Tome, who ya gonna sell the extra one to? Sure, R9S3+12 players can farm TT a lot, but who will they sell mats and/or equipment to? It…
