Actually I was amazed that there hasn't been more bugs, than there has(Not because Wiz is a bad coderMalakai^ said:Seeing the amount of bugs in ToT found so far, I wouldn't expect the beta to end for quite awhile
, but because of the amount of content released all at once). I doubt it we have to find every bug there is, but the dev team probably just wants us to visit the different zones, and make sure there's no big bugs/exploits, when the server is returned to live status. Meaning: "If you want the server to come back up fast, stop xp'ing in Karana like the 500 other people and run to some other zone where nobody is, to find bugs."

Post subject: beta end?
The original set time was Sunday October 3rd, exactly one week after beta testing began.
Actually, there was but then the devs realized they bit off more than they could chew, so here we are.
Yes. Instead of one week we're now looking at two weeks, but then again...why make it 2 weeks when you can get a 3rd week for free?
Ayep.
Me too :sadf:
Yep, beta testing all of Antonica in one week probably wasn't the brightest idea. But then again, maybe it's like forcing everyone to go to the dentist....noone wants to go, but it's in their best interest and they only have to do it every 6 months or so. *shrug*
Yes, I suppose that's all we can do. Since we weren't able to suggest how this process was to take place, how long it should last, or if we could offer any alternative ideas :?
Do people actually do this? What's more depressing than farming plat for a character that will be deleted in a week? I guess these people are new to the server, or they have figured out a clever way to transport plat back to their mains after beta end?
I'd like to but....thist was posted over a week ago and it still isn't fixed:
So the only way for me to help test freeport is to walk my char all the way from wcommons back to the nex gate, then from nex to the butcherblock ports, then take the boat back to freeport.
Nice to know they're fixing the important bugs first so we can help move the beta along. :finger:

One, insulting the staff is a great way to motivate us to do work. Thanks for your appreciation.
Secondly, if it weren't giving us a huge problem, it would have been fixed. Thanks for treating us like morons.
Wany has been trying to fix that zone line but it keeps getting bugged. No, it's not as easy as you think.

Fair enough. Listen I do appreciate how complicated this stuff can be, I'm a C++ programmer...and from what I hear MMOG programming is especially tedious. But it would be nice to see you guys being a little more open to criticism.
On this side of the wall life is getting very frustrating. We don't have a clue what's going on, and things appear to be getting more and more behind schedule. They don't call it evercrack for nothing, and many of us are suffering from extreme EQ withdrawal.
I'm sure you guys are short on both sleep and patience, but it would help a lot if you gave us daily updates in the news section(it hasn't been updated for almost a week now). If you're going through hell trying to squash a zone bug, then just say so!
Most of us are pretty understanding when we have a few facts on hand.We are all grateful to you guys for what you are doing, so please read every critisism with a grain of salt.
People who drop comments like you Sulfa, should be banned, i would do it if it was my server.
Keep in mind: WR people are working for free, and all i have seen they are working their butts off,
and they do a great job, the whole WR server and concept is a gem amongst the available MMORPGs
out there. On top of it THEY pay the server and the traffic. So please, STFU Sulfa unless you
can come up with something constructive. And no it's not kewl idiot. An no they are not here
to serve you. Oh yes of course they will write daily personal reports for you Sulfa so you
can deal a bit better with your withdrawal symptoms...
/cheers WR-Team you are doing awesome, dont let people like Sulfa pressure you and
ruin your mood.
sorry for the language...

Keep the criticism constructive and it's all good.
I think the staff read your comments as implying they are a bunch of idiots. We all do this for little more than the satisfaction of contributing to something kinda cool. It seems our breaking point is as fragile as is our reason for doing this.
It was, and continues to be, my responsibility to make sure the zone connections are functioning properly. My apologies for any inconvenience to you with regards to the Plaguelands<->East Plaguelands zone line. I understand how important that particular zoneline is for being able to move throughout Old Dalaya.
I have, however, been distracted as of late. First, a death in the family. Being the eldest son, I am responsible for executing the Will and handling the Estate. Secondly, I have been out on business for almost a full two weeks. I have logged more miles in the air in two weeks than most people see in a year.
I am not offering these comments as excuses for why the zoneline wasn't done. I am offering these comments as perspective on what seems so important to some, and so unimportant to others.
