Why should they read hundreds/thousands of QQ posts saying exactly the same thing? That's the real reason it was all piled in one. Contrary to popular belief, more threads of the same crap doesn't convince anyone.

Imagine if, instead of having thousands of rallies in support of the Civil Right Movement, there was just one. Quantity is also an indicator of how much people care.

Ill buy $99 if they pledge to never go p2w and go back on mc only consumables.

[RiceyFighter]

I RiceyFighter will pledge 14.95 dollars/3000 MC for this cause!

Sorry I don't have a 100 dollars to burn but 14.95 is still better than 0.

Here's my pledge: I will spend $99.95 to buy the 25,000 MC package if we get a video posted of at least 1 core member of the dev team (Paul, Garth, etc) reading every post in this entire thread: http://mwomercs.com/...t-flush-module/

Just set up a camera in their office looking at their screen, and have them hit record every time they sit down to read some more of it. I understand that it's a long thread and takes a lot of time to read, so obviously I'm not expecting you to do it in one sitting. It doesn't even have to be one person reading each post: you can split it up and have different devs reading different pages.

I shall call this the "Devs are you really listening Founders Package"

Will anyone else join me in this pledge?

Currently pledged members:

$99.95 level: 6

$150 level: 2

Thanks to our last pledger: Osa Eris Xero

They won't read it.

They don't need to read it. How many variations of "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I'm poor", "Whaaaaaaaaaaa I'm stupid" and "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I'm poor and stupid" do they need to see?

[skullman86]

They read it and go back to business as usual, but now you are short ~$100

[NightFallsOnU]

i will buy the 29.99 mc pack if they do this

That's just a moronic comparison. For one thing, that actually mattered.

If you want an answer, though, I'll give you one.

If it was one big one the size of all the smaller ones combined, it sure as [censored] would have grabbed some attention.

Ok I'd love to see that sign me up

Because thousands of legitimate complaints about a hot topic just shows the volume involved with this issue.

"That actually mattered"

Wow, really?

So something is only important if you think it's important? Image you're a racist white man in Alabama during the Civil Rights movement. What would you have thought of it then? Imagine you're a rich plantation owner in pre-Civil War South Carolina. What would you have thought then?

Just because this is not as big an issue as that does not mean that people shouldn't care about it.

how about you actually -read- the post, nowhere in it does it mention MC only consumables, there are MC AND c-bill consumables of each value, it is quite clear that the identical values are available for both forms of currency.

[Bagheera]

Tell ya what, they can skip the thread.

If the completely get rid of coolant flush in all its forms and pledge to give me back the money spent in trust if they ever impliment any sort of coolant flush at all then I'll buy the $100 MC pack.

Till then, sorry guys. Coolant flush module == fail, regardless of how you work it into the economy or what its in-game functional numbers are. Bad idea is bad.

[Hawkwings]

We're over $1000 pledged!

Unlike PBS pledge drives, I have no mugs or handbags or CDs to offer you. But maybe PGI will release some merchandise soon?

Reading each one doesn't change the fact that they all say the same crap. You could just read one and look at the page count.

Well, for one thing I wouldn't give a damn what you think. OK, you got me on that one.

Furthermore, I'm not any of those things. I'm far too thoughtful and analytical to ever pigeonhole someone based on something so superficial as skin color or gender. On the other hand, I'm more than willing to pigeonhole those who deliberately refuse to access higher brain functions as what they are. That's exactly why I'm able to stand back and call out the knee-jerk reactionary QQ'ing for what it is and recognize that it does not equate in even the smallest margin to an issue that actually affected, and to some extent still affects, the lives, livelihood and future of countless millions and rested on the national conscience.

Your comparison makes me sick, sir.

Here we see someone who does not understand the point of analogies or hyperbole.
