Topic: Lost GMs Posted: 20 Jul 2013 at 00:38 |
Has anyone seen or heard from the GMs recently? Are your petition support needs being met? I never see them online and my petitions are always listed as unassigned.
Sadly I must say I am really disappointed in the lack of response from GMs. I can understand people being under heavy deadlines and busy but I would also say that other things (like petitions) shouldn't be put down on the priority list as far they seem to have been moved. There should be a better balance in my opinion.
From my point of view I would rather see a Badlands deployment delayed until 2014 and some user support now.
So I post this question for folks.
What are your thoughts?

I completely agree with everything Allamagoosa said. There are glitches being exploited and they just ignore them. It's very frustrating.

Who's cares about the gm's anyway. I sure don't they can do what ever they want just like the rest of us. They don't have to do anything for anybody its there game they control it . I never was crazy about the idea of so called people that made and control the game even playing it. But its there game and they have the power. I wish we would never see them to tell the truth. I can do with out the blue letter people with with no problem. There humans and dealing with the real life like everybody so give them a break and leave them alone. They don't owe anybody nothing.

We are still here. Alive and well, just busy (sorry for the quiet lately).
If you have a petition open that's still affecting gameplay, update it. Noone's ignoring exploits, but you do have to actually go through the proper channels.
Thanks.

I posted it 2 weeks ago, as well as a forum thread. If you want details about the exploit, talk to Maccam or demdigs and who knows how many others.

Petition #8814 was opened in late March because I had 15,000 troops disappear from my city without any reason, notification, etc... On 4/4 I asked what was going on with the petition. Never got any response and it's still open. It seems pointless to continue asking what is going on through official channels but I'll try here just out of curiosity.
I have plenty of other petitions that were just ignored (still marked as New) and only one other that was acknowledged (but never resolved). There were a couple that got quick response and resolution too but only 10-20% of the total petitions filed. All of which is fine, but I agree with the OP and would point out to Luna that the "official system" isn't really being used near 100% by the company.
Just like any business, the owners can and should do what they want. It's also perfectly reasonable for the customers to talk about both what they like and do not like about the product. Decent business owners appreciate that sort of feedback. Customers should never discourage polite feedback from other customers as it's in the best interest of everyone.

This is why you need to go through the petition queue and only post about bugs that are affecting your account. We don't go through third parties on these things. The issue you are talking about was addressed as soon as it came up, directly with the player whom it affected and no one else.
Now if there is something else happening, or if it is affecting your account, you need to open a new petition explaining, please.

The siege bug Allamagoosa is talking about has been there for 3 months at least. I filed petition when I was sitting an account (date of petition 04/10/13). Now the petition says under investigation but it took almost a month to respond to the petition. During the time said player disappeared and the towns are gone. This bug has started to appear since siege rules were updated. Luna, when I joined game I used to see a GM in chat at least once a week or so, it encouraged me to stay illy. I don't remember seeing a GM in last couple of months. All I am saying is few more visits from GMs would be definitely appreciated.
