However the responses they made in regards to this issue so soon after that PR Spin letter that Bruce posted (which is a classic example to any company of what NOT to write) people are going to take it the wrong way...specially since this issue is happening on Unrest.

So basically keep up with the nifty comebacks and smart ass comments, they are a breath of fresh air and it's fun to have the Devs get involved with people on the forums regarding issues. However, bad taste IMO to do it so soon after that "Fuck You" letter.

If people feel that way, they should direct comments toward the individual they are displeased with for a specific reason, and NOT just generally toward all devs. That's like saying "I don't like that person because of his skin color, watch me be a dick to them".

AND IT'S ESPECIALLY retarded and fucked up to make comments like that toward a person who is not only completely innocent in the previous situation, but who is the guy who tried to stop it from happening.

There already is an answer.Gnorbin sent me a PM. It was kind of threatening (about the follow posts) but I explained why I posted what I did and either they see my point of view or they don't.

This was all an exploit and it should be fixed soon (if not already). If I had known the level restrictions were removed from the zone I would have figured exploit to begin with (it fits better) and this whole thing would have been in a petition (maybe I would have done some testing first to find the exact exploit but I would have deleted the character after so no harm there).

This is true, just a lot of people (myself included) are still upset from the previous incident and how it was handled from the top down.

I truly believe if this had happened on another server then it wouldn't have received the amount of attention that it has by the player base.

On a side note, I didn't even know there were supposed to be level restrictions on Shard of Fear, I zoned into it on level 50s a few weeks ago trying to get discovery exp, but was promptly owned instead.

Much respect to you for doing what you thought was the right thing even against your own company. I wish there were more devs like you working at SoE.

I'm not so sure what to make. Sure it looks like they exploited something, somewhere.

But seriously, who the hell really cares?

It's not like they are going to hurt anyone but themselves with the lack of knowledge on their chosen class. And it's not like any serious raiding guild is going to pick up a toon with only minimal time played.

And before you decide to call me an SOE fanboi. I loathe SOE and the way they handle their customer service and the way they treat the player bases of their games.

Perhaps I'm just a sucker like the rest of you. Perhaps, it's a database error, or just another exploit in a long list of them that people have used to get ahead since the advent of online gaming. I for one could give a shit less. Hell, give everyone a vet reward that allows them to powerlevel a single toon to 70/100. You'll gain more in the long run. Most new players don't stick around because the leveling is such a royal pain in the ass. And most veterans leave because they get tired of being thrown under the bus by SOE.

Oh, and if you think it's bad now....I've got 3 words for you.
