GBG Bug that may create Lag

I don't remember anyone in LOTR or The Hobbit addressing everyone as "Lord" this or that. Maybe you could refresh our memories about it?
“But no living man am I! You look upon a woman. Éowyn I am, Éomund's daughter. You stand between me and my lord and kin. Begone, if you be not deathless! For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him.”
<Drak raises his helmet, just high enough off his face so as the light of day reveals his waggish wink cast towards Lord Johnny> :)

Umm. that is not someone addressing everyone as "Lord". She is referring to King Theoden of Rohan, her uncle. So he is in fact her "lord and kin". I am neither your lord nor your kin, so kindly address me (at the very least) as either Johnny or JBG.

All fuss about nothing. I have friends in this game who have chosen their name purely so they can fit a little Roll Play into how they play the game. Pirates for instance And address their friends as, swashbucklers, me hearties etc. Or enemies as scurvy swine and landlubbers. And use whatever piratical jargon they can think of when they speak. No-one takes offense. It is part of the fun of the game. I see nothing wrong with doing the same in the forum.

Thus speaks the "Lady" Redneck. Which to some is a contradiction. Can one be a Lady and a Redneck?? AND Given the fact that I am Scottish, can I really exist at all?

Not that it matters, or applies to today's understanding, so just trivial BS by today's standards, but back in the medieval times, a Dame was in reference to a wife of a Knight, and a Lady was in reference to a wife of a Lord. So they were status Titles of women, not gender generic. Of course, none of that applies today. Just thought I'd share some trivia, even if no one gives a crap. :p

So many sticks in the mud that think they need to be the FOE police on comments and critiques of other players. How about focusing on the REAL problems in this game without attacking the other players. Just a thought. by the by, Einstein wore loafers because he had issues tying shoelaces.

Greetings, I'm reposting this warning to all to be aware of a "bug" that I experienced last season in GBG. Our guild had experienced lags since the very open of GBG. On day 2, around noon, right before the next round of tiles opened. I experienced a very significant lag. So much so that I exited FOE and logged back in to see if would help. It did only slightly. In the GBG Map, I opened the Guild Overview. Both the FOE Guild Activity window and FOE Helper GBG Overview opened. By having both open, I discovered a guildmate's name had been changed. I first thought it was a new member that I missed, but after checking it was in fact a guildmate with a 5 letter name that had been changed to Backgammon (see attachment).

I looked further, despite the heavy lag, and found six player's names had somehow been altered. 2 had completely dif names; 1 had the last letter dropped from their name; 3 more had first or last letters changed. Scrolling through the two apps seemed to make the lag worse and I reset my PC. After the restart the names listed in FOE Helper were will incorrrect. I shut my PC down for 15 to 20 mins, at which time the correct names wre now listed in FOE Helper.

I contacted FOE Helper and was informed that FOE Guild Overview has a known issue and the name changes originated from FOE. I contacted INNO and they replied: "This is a programming issue the developers are aware of and are working on, but we do not have a resolution timeframe as of yet.
This is not limited to your guild or your world."

I dont believe the issue is resolved but rather the names were refreshed. I'm also unclear how the names were changed in the first place. Please be aware of this situation if u experience lags during GBG.
It's not a bug it's forced LAG when your gbg opponent has only 2-3 players using scripts it bogs that private server so as your unable to get even 1 battle in, DONT LOOK HERE FOR ANY HELP INNO WOULDNT spray u down if u were on fire GREED has totaly encomber this once great company but when 1 GAME EARNS OVER A BILLION DOLLARS IN 10yrs bit less, THEY SEE GREEN AND GIVE 0 F's about problems that matter

TY for ur comments TBOMB. I think we may be talking about 2 dif things when I referred to a "bug" causing a Lag and ur referring to players using scripts. Regardless, there r sinister actions going on and maybe we both agree that spending money on diamonds is not worth it, as long as the sinister stuff continues.

I'm a luddite but even I know that caps is not an excuse for good sentence structure. Just a suggestion, leave the caps to President Trump and try to make your point without them. :)
