They also got our tag wrong.

Copy and paste is a work in progress. Available some time after CW.

The stupidity level of this posts is insane, wonder were u guys came from. Maybe you have to read all the 4 pages hundred times to finally get the point of the post that we made? I guess its how some none competitive players react in this game.

So you have to be a competetive player to be insultet by a signature clearly not directe at you directly? And you have to be a competetive player to be unreasonable impatient? Sounds legit.

But seriously, I understand that you want the correct tags for your units and its annoying that something got mixed up. Your reaction just seems a bit harsh considering we have the servermigration and it is weekend. PGI has no big staff after all and it is a fairly minor issue after all.

The Black Spikes Mercenary unit wants to say thanks to Nikolai Lubkiewicz for finaly clearing everything up and fixing all the missunderstandings we had, good job Niko, hopefully it will never happen again. Also, thanks to Black Sheep Mercenary unit who were willing to exchange the unit tags. Huge thanks to House of Lords and everyone who were helping us to solve this problem. Much kudos to you guys <3


Proton, there's a reason why no one takes PGI, IGP, and the whale customers around here seriously.

You should know better by now. Their horrible CW system also screwed over my guild, but for different reasons.

Well as an example of how much polish needs to be added to their community management, a friend of mine received a "You have been warned" message from customer support due to an accidental TK or something.

The hilarity of it is, PGI support THEN sent him a, "How'd we do?" message asking him to rate how well they addressed, "HIS" issue.

LOL!


I remember when you used to be the biggest white knight around. You would even make the bold claim that the kintaro, during the broken CT days, was properly scaled, and the CT hitbox was some kind of balancing feature.

If I recall correctly, you switched sides when they forced cockpit glass on us, and took out the cfg command to disable it.

Someone had a position change which led to no one being allowed into our 2 year old guild for days. Their position changed again, but until galaxy map 0.8 beta open gamma long release, expansion pak #8 ™, we can't transfer ownership, or really do much with it.

It led to much drama, and made everybody question PGI's need to push out such a broken system.

This is where a simple feature of if leader is not online over 30 day period ownership transfers to someone in next highest rank group would be useful

60 to 90 days.

If anything, the general drama over guild ownerships and CW just tells me the community is way past burned out, and the flop delivery of CW phase #2 might have been the last straw. Out of our peak 84 players, and merging with the remnants of two other guilds, only 14 guys remain.

That was the launch module. You know, P2Lobbies, 2-10 manz, and private matches.

Not even PGI remembers that, it seems. Further proof of...stuff we already knew, I guess.

Totally, but that's what Russ and Bryan said it was.
Not to mention NGNG hyping it up way too much for their own good.

When i saw Black Sheeps registering the BSMC-Tag on page 1 of the preregistration-thread, i was like "trolololol, this is going to be hilarious" ;)
I logged on to our TS and told our guys that "some strange (maybe just for fun-) corp just registered spikes' tag" ... the laughter was strong with us.

But seriously though, i made the experience, if everything regarding MWO is working as intended (or at least as close to this as possible for PGI), that is the support. I never had any issues with them, give them some time, maybe until Tuesday. I'm pretty sure they will settle this issue.

I was NEVER a white night.

I have differing opinions of various issues and express them.

I'd always been EXTREMELY critical of the move to lock pre-mades at either 4 man or 12 (and before the 12 man limit, 8). The reasoning was stupid and flawed, just like their foolish flip-flop of: 90% of pug stomps are being committed by pugs, but only 10% of the players ever play in a pre-made.

In the case of the Kintaro, my opinion was based off the known scaling of various 'mechs, where a LOCUST is actually TALLER than a Warhammer, just MUCH MORE skinnier. So if a 20 ton Locust in lore scaling was correct, the Kintaro scaling in game was probably also correct.

Anyway, I was never a 'white knight'...

Acually, Black Sheeps are old and respected unit. Their good will in this situation proved it once again.

As for me, I'm proud that I've been the part of Black Sheep Mercs.
