Dear DarkArtist,
I am writing this directly to you due to your numbers theory on this thread. I see you have 158 posts and does that mean your word or suggestions mean more than any other.? NO, because you work for "the game", you now do. How about me with my 8-9 posts and the vast majority of them ONLY coming to this topic, does this mean my words of voice means more than any others, NO.
In fact, you are missing a great deal here. There are FACTS and there are people who are benefiting from the changes due to where they live.
FACT, you and others from "the game" have stated that 10am est., is the slowest time of the day for the day.
FACT, you and others from "the game" have stated this is due to lag attempting to be fixed.
FACT, when this change occurred, there was mention from "the game" about a thread for feedback. WAIT, this is the title of this thread, "FEEDBACK".
FACT, the busiest time of the day for the game before the change, was 30 minutes before and after the re-calc. of 8pm est.
FACT, this is a United States based server, or meant to be.
FACT, YOU stated for a proposal to be created on this due to the 19 now over 20+ pages of comments.
FACT, I created a proposal for the change back. NO ONE ELSE DID. De-coupling is different.
Wherefore, it is now mutually agreed that you and your own community managers did in fact make material statements that are relevant to the facts contained here within. As such, I can throw out numerous numbers for you like, 2, 25, 50, 100 and so on and so on. PLEASE do not attempt to insult my intelligence by saying this and we all know how people feel about this. While I am not on other servers, I am sure there are many out there saying the same things, or was it only this server that had a changed to BAND-AID this problem.?
Another fact I missed is that "the game" with NO NOTICE decided to change the terms of the players agreement and terms of the game. Notice everyone, this is NOT BE ADDRESSED. Why, legal issues all. Legal issues. Anyone notice the changes in game rules now. We have 8 weeks to ask for our game to be deleted, meaning if we do not agree to those changes that came after the game time re-calc. change, when we can go away. How about all the money I spend on the game.? Are you going to refund me.? LET ME BE CLEAR, I AM NOT ASKING OR REQUESTING TO HAVE MY GAME DELETED. In fact, I like the game and the rules by which I have played until your blatant dis-regard for the players or majority of players who play this game.
Ok, back to numbers. In one world where I am a co-leader, we have over 70 players or family members of the guild. I consider them family, that's the way I am. We have gone thru multiple mergers and now have a good core group who like to fight at re-calc. time. Now you have caused our guild chat and time for fighting to be ruined and GONE. I still have lag and so do many others. Clearly by the "FEEDBACK" thread, this time change has NOT fixed the underlying issue at hand. THEREFORE, the changed DID NOT WORK and needs to be RE-THOUGHT. Why not fix the core problem and actually have a solution, like buy newer servers.
All you did was take away fun guild time where a bunch of players could come together and have fun. Now you ruined that and destroyed the integrity of the game. To sit there and say, please submit a proposal, is a nice way of saying tuff (you know what), live with it. I am insulted by you and others who continue to say that the players have a voice, when clearly they do not. I urge you to look at your own numbers and see the amount of people who actually come to the forums and post. Some are troller's who write all the time in CAPS, which is a violation of the rules your very own game states, FACT.
All that I am guilty of is believing that you and INNO actually care about the players of the United States Server and want them to be happy. In a perfect world, the west coasters could play after work and those like me, (New York - East Coast) 8pm is a good time for me. Sadly enough for the west coast 5pm est. is early. Please remember, this is something the game decided when implementing the GvG System. Now to arbitrarily change the function of GvG, with NO NOTICE I might add, with a time change in re-calc. has diminished the play ability of numerous players and guilds. Please stop the spammers and troller's of this thread and keep it the way you and "the game" intended it for, "FEEDBACK".
Finally, please remember the phrase, "figures lie and liars figure", what does that mean.? I could give you numbers as well to support this and maybe you should take a look at any global chat at anytime. People feel compelled to vent and complain via that way and not very often do they take the time to write something here. I have taken a great deal of time in writing these mails, threads, proposals and the like, at my current rate of $ 450 per hour, where should I send the bill for my services.?
It is simple, you and your own personnel have stated this is a "Feedback" thread and now there is a proposal as well. The feedback has been that "the game" has messed up and taken the wrong approach here. Just fix the real problem and give us all back our FUN TIME in our respective guilds.
