'were patchnotes'

Anyhoo,

The servers go down at 10. Any estimate when they are back up?

PGI has consistently shown they don't really care what their customers think.. so why it is we should care what they think? Oh and also - we don't get paid to be here.

They really don't owe you anything. : /

mandatory - you mad bro?

I think you are confusing listening with blindly following the desires of the community. PGI should listen, and I think generally they do. They then choose the course of action they think best. Just because it is not what you or I or even a majority of the community thinks is the best course of action does not mean they don't listen. Reasonable people can disagree.

Usually two to three hours later; so around 12-1.

Except you're going out of your way to mock them. So it's not the same thing. It would be like them coming on to the boards and trolling you just because they could. Then it would truly work both ways.

Caring what you think and doing what you say are two very different things.

Oh, and if you post 'were patchnotes' or other hilarious posts about the patchnotes, I will remove them.

Its like your willfully requesting that we troll you.. but that almost takes all the fun out of it.

Way to ruin patch day you meany.

No but they could tell us they're going to release things at a certain time then don't. I'd consider that a form of trolling.

Thanks for the heads up on the patch.

That being said the snide remarks in the announcement seem unreasonable. While I take no offense to them my wallet seems to have taken offense and is currently giving us both the finger. I guess he doesn't want to play with us anymore.

Everyone needs to just relax. Testy Tuesday up in here.

Have some coffee and calm down

Im pretty sure it was a reverse psychological ploy to pull lots of attention to the post, and to get us posting things that are benign and lighthearted. Hopefully with degrees of excitement and appreciation for their hard work...hold on I need to wipe all this brown off my nose.

Well that's just a lack of being able to deliver. Which is a valid point against them. But hardly warrants being mocked over everything else they do. For better or worse, as long as we play this game, we're stuck with them.

I'm talking about owing them anything. They can maintain the fiction that they don't have the patch notes ready or worse that some one is writing them up now if they like. There is no reason for either. They have the notes all ready to go, for some inexplicable reason they refuse to post them when they make this announcement.
If they truly don't have them ready, that would explain a lot of why this project appears to be mismanaged in many ways.

If you dont understand the difference between failing to meet a working delivery date and trolling you really need to work on your internet social skills.
