Unhallowed Triad/Unrest - moved from Test by SOE - Page 45

Wolfe · 12-15-2007, 02:52 AM

I like to know why Unhallowed triad is still active on unrest with a shit load of freshly rolled toons. Did the deleted copies also get there transfers deleted? Or did they simply move all the items and plat to alts and just reroll? Was all this just overlooked as another personal favor?

Apollodon · 12-15-2007, 02:55 AM

they probally deleted copy toons

thus they keep the plats and masters just on alts now
O_o

Fuck you.

At no point have I rationalized the transfer. I've called you out for trying to be the giant attention seeking whore you are by not being content with adding a voice to the choir but trying to take it a notch further by adding in people of no consequence to this.

What you think is right? For fuck's sake.

You really don't have a job, do you? At best, you have a "home business" where you really never answer to anyone. You rationalize and justify living off your husband and the government by claiming you adhere to "principle." The fact of the matter is your own over-blown sense of self-righteousness precludes you from ever having any real responsibility.

You are why my taxes are so high.

Edit: there is a WORLD of difference from "courtesy pricing" as you're describing and what happened here. You know it as well as I do. Quit pretending that what was done was "ok" cuz it was just like getting vendor discounts. Those discounts were paid for, even if not by you.

Seriously...try to grasp this:

I do not think the transfers should have happened.

Do you understand that? That isn't the issue. My sole issue in this entire thread is your telling a coder to "fuck off" and that he "had no balls" because he didn't quit his job over a video game.

Had we been aware that being a little extra kind to these folks would cause such an uproar, there is no doubt we would not have taken this step. However, due to the current situation, I find myself apologizing to you for allowing this situation to occur.
We are in the process now of removing the characters that we copied to the live servers. Obviously, we overstepped the bounds of kindness in attempting to thank these people for their efforts in testing, and we are working to rectify this situation before the end of the day today.
Thank you,

Bruce "Froech" Ferguson
Senior Producer, EverQuest II

Little extra kindness? Nice try, Slapnuts.

And who gets those tickets within the companies? The best and most deserving of award?

No.

The one that has the best inside connection.

Yeah, I'm going to have to say that Alania is a dumb bitch like normal.

If you think people should quit their jobs in aspects like this, you have little attachment to reality. People have things called family, mortgages, bills, and rent.

It's called real life.

You are why my taxes are so high.

So because I would rather quit a job than do something that I know is wrong, I don't work? No, sorry sweetheart, I work. I don't want to tell you who I work for because its none of your damn business, but it is in customer service, and I do a damn good job at my job. I am not why your taxes are so high. Your "premium pricing" is more at fault than I am. So kindly fuck off and pretend you mean something to someone.

I have those things too, and I also have enough skill to find a new job in a matter of days. If I were that coder, I don't give a fuck if it was Smed himself that was asking me to do the change, I would have refused, even if it meant my job.

You keep telling yourself that. When somebody claims they will make no moral compromises, it's a very good sign that the person is lying through their teeth to look better on a message board or doesn't really go out into the real world.

So you didn't do anything wrong, but you got something for free that everyone else has to pay a large sum of money for, and that you know is a service that is charged for.

That's an interesting definition of nothing wrong you got there...

Just keep telling yourself that your shit don't stink though, anyone can be fooled into believing a lie if you tell them often enough, even yourself.

Put yourself there, and tell me what you would do. If I knew I wouldn't be legally in fault, I wouldn't give a fuck. Lie all you want, but in today's world you know it is true.

Obviously, you could be bought for less.

No, again, you would not do it if it were possible for legal implications. I am willing to bet, for a favor with little ramifications, you would bend like gumby.

Again, bullshit, and this is such nonsense. I have never met such a morally driven person in my life that would deny a VIDEO GAME (as opposed to real life) favor tie in advantage.

I agree.

Again, I agree. This is beyond overboard at this point.
