A letter to our Developers.

[Zurkhan]

This is My first post I will be making in this community, and I feel a need as a Player to make it.

To our Unsung Heroes the Developers & Trion: It is your hard work and dedication to a project that has sprung it to life. And it is Incomprehensible to me just how many players of this community and any other games community in a M.M.O. genre, Feel that just because they have purchased a copy of the game (and in some cases pay for a subscription) take it upon themselves, to appoint themselves as director to your artistic image and creation and twist it in to there missguided direction to suit their own interests as a player. Instead they should be enjoying the Story, Artwork and Direction in which your taking it. But in turn have been systematically destroying your visions piece by piece.

As for this Player community and Gamers in general, we should all be ashamed of how we treat Game Developers and there Companies! Yes as players we have the right to address certain game play mechanic issues. Such as graphic issues, Rewards not appearing, Missing text. Yes as players we have the right to make suggestions, But we do not have the right to demand changes through acts of threats or recourse. these by there very definition are an act of intimidation. which in most countries is punishable through legal repercussions.

I have seen many great Games and Companies fail, go bankrupt, completely sell themselves out to there users. As far as I am concerned players that wish to slander a company and there employees because their direction does not suit there missguided so called entitled conception should face similar consequences IE: Ban there accounts. Now if they choose to go to a private Gaming community forum and choose to write a negative review so be it. but there is no excuse for the amount of slander I have read today during this down time. To think i go to sort through page after page of (100% pure BS) just to find some useful insightful knowledge. To the gamers here in this community that believe that they are entitled to complain endlessly in some form of non-violent protest or cyber bullying or as i see it "A bunch of Corporate Terrorist's" (http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...te%20terrorism) see entry 1.2. "2. A terrorist action that creates widespread panic, and nervousness and results in the loss of rights and/or monies." They should all be held accountable for there actions.

So it is with my deepest sympathies to all Game Developers and to Trion and many other Companies: For your hard work and efforts to go unnoticed by such a large number of the videogame player base. And I urge you all to take a stand for your legal rights, and put an end to all of this trash talking that happens to you all.
I thank all of you, your doing a great job. I feel the need and desire to do so, if it was not for you and your kind. I would not have such awesome games to play.

If anyone else feels appreciation for what your Game Developers and Companies have done. Step forward and thank them. It is such a small thing to do, but it means the everything for these people. It is why they slave and slave to make things run smoothly. It is why they bring forth there artistic and creative nature to you. so it can be Appreciated and not torn apart. If your not happy playing someone else's Game that they created. Then please go make your own and send me a invite I will gladly come and play it to. But please stop with the BS hate towards them. there jobs are stressful enough.

Thanks for your time.

Blah ba blah blah.

Sticking your nose there is ok, I suppose, but try not to stick your whole head in next time.

60 dollars for a disk to just be stored in my xbox.... time for you to put the knee pads away

[r2nddan]

Give me my money back!

[Schwa]

Aside from Customer Service, I see no reason to thank Trion for much of anything. They don't get an apple for releasing a game they can't maintain.

Yep, can't.

[Durva360]

Even if the servers were to shut down for good tonight which they aren't I have gotten my $60 out of this game with the 300+ hours I've put into it.

[Inda Skies 01]

People defend them like this is an isolated event.

to the comment about being a "Fan boys", This is the first game by Trion I have ever played. And secondly I am showing appreciation to all Game Developers and Companies not to just one in particular I fail to see how that makes me a Fan boy.
