Servers acting crazy, yep, thats the world we live in today. I hope everyone could consider this, especially GM...you know who.
Servers went nuts in the aftermath of GM event=waist of event, and broken hearts for all who were gaining like crazy.

Its like rain on a baseball game, cant just give up on the game, ya know, lets try to play it when its sunny outside again. And thats what I'm tryin to say. Thats all.
From each character:


(My god i thought i was the only one! Whew, and right in the middle of me leveling for the event! damn! Ya know it'd be one thing to do it any other time, but in the middle of me leveling!)

(Ok this is to Dakkon, I've been playing for some time now, and from what I know about modern technology, it doesnt allways work right.)

(As for me and the rest of my fellow players I hope that you would consider some form of Compinsation for the loss of time to gain from the event, now that the server is acting up. I dont care what it is, but it probably cost me 3 levels and hours of gameplay now that the server is wierd. Maybe an addition to the time of the blessing for the event. Just to make up for lost time during crash. Or maybe monotary value, treasure drops or a pet or somthing.)

(I don't want to sound greedy, but its kinda hard to enjoy the great things you guys bring to the game when the games acting like its possesed or somthing.)

Hope you consider us.

This is why things are called "beta", its not an official release yet. So there are going to be losses, hang ups, and quirks to deal with throughout the duration of it. Compensation isn't something they need to even do since this is.... *drum roll* a free to play game? Now if you were actually PAYING money monthly to access it, then by all means yes, you should be compensated for these things.

Honestly, the reason there was no second server for the longest time was because they were trying to see how much stress one server could handle before going under. After they got the right feedback, the second server opened. As for crashes and downtime, that still happens even in the pay to play MMOs.

However with time such games have improved on those. Anyone who remembers Anarchy Online when it first went public will remember the hellish frustrations it had on a weekly basis. However it's come a long long way and many improvements later its become a good game.

This one is still in the beta process. I'm sure when these issues are mostly resolved, it will lead out of OB and into a regular release.
