The good news is you don't have to petition plat spam. Just /report [username].

The bad news is the new peition system is truely the most clonky, un-friendly system I've ever had to use, and that's before it ever gets to an actual person.

Who are these people? No one here has every said "The devs can do no wrong". They just say that the anti-dev people are not looking at the whole picture.

None of what any of ya have said actually has any fact in it just trying to stand up for your friends. I think thats fine and good but why does it hurt your personally when someone says something negative about a dev? They fricken work at SOE they got thick skins and can deal with criticism you don't need to fight their battles. I am not saying don't express your opinion but till I see a name tag saying you have anything to do with SOE and their inner workings I suggest ya might want to be a little more reserved in your statements. I know full well what they go through to implement changes and that it is sometimes a real god damn pain in the ass to fix some stuff. The thing is though there are still bugs from release that plague us from time to time. The game will never be 100% bug free but they could do a hell of alot better job than they currently are.

Fixing Bugs > Than anything else in game including looking pretty.
oh... so you work at SOE? Then I bow to your superior knowledge, dear.

Who said the Devs can do no wrong? Point that out for me. I'll save you some time, because you won't find it. I just don't play armchair developer as well as a lot of other people do. I find it difficult for me to tell people who are professionals at what they do how to do their job. Hell I'm going to go tell Coyote how to be funny right now, and I'll let you know how he reacts.

[RadarX]: What would you say if I told you I was thinking you could be funnier. Have you considered telling maybe knock knock jokes or doing more gags?
[Coyote]: I would tell you that you don't have a sense of humor. You are one
of the people out there who THINKS that they have a sense of humor - but you don't. You don't KNOW what funny is, and when you try to be funny it comes out awkward. If people DO laugh, it's at you and not with you. Go back to your clown shoes and bicycle horn honking after every joke Shecky.
[Coyote]: And then I would kick you in the nuts.

See? Nobody likes being told how to do what they do best.

You can say whatever you like about the Devs if you back it up. Should I start up a thread in here saying "Stoic is a retard because he's Stoic?" No, because thats lameass. If you got something substantial that isn't some generalized gripe about the game that can't even be pinned on a certain dev post it.

If comedy is what Coyote does best, he might want to invest in cyanide pills.

Well we could take your word about how funny he is, or the thousands of people that show up to read his stuff every month. It's a tough call.
