Ok, I have not had the luxury of talking to you in the past with regards to DAOC.

But it appears that the English cluster, despite your predecessors promises of plans to keep the Dyvet cluster alive and kicking for the long term future, nothing seems to be getting done.

Reading the Friday news heralds, great things for the Dragon's within the game. But nothing on the development GOA have concerning the English community.

So, to ask a few small but important questions.

Does GOA plan on doing anything for the cluster population?
Were all of Requiel's promises empty or rather have ended up that way as GOA focuses it's entire attention to Warhammer online? (which I know is strictly not true) but it sure does look that way.
Can you possibly identify some plans at least for what the future holds for the English community from GOA's perspective?
And finally the obvious one, has GOA given up on attempting to do anything that will improve the overall populations of all servers GOA currently run for Dark Age of Camelot?

I am aware that you will know that I do not currently hold an open DAOC account via your xml db's on people's accounts. But seriously, I see nothing at this moment in time to entice me back to GOA servers - generally down to the fact that the Friday news holds nothing of any value to entice me as a former customer or anyone else for that matter back and playing their old accounts.

Regards,

Imgormiel.

LOL

and nice /ignore from the GM in question -.-

And since when was it in his job description to answer questions on this forum?
I am sure when you ask your question to Right Now(yeah we heard all the *jokes* so don't bother) you would get an answer, probably not the one you would be wanting to hear but still.

Nice work if you can get it .....

No I am just stating that he doesn't have to come here and answer any of your or other people's questions as you make it sound he does.
And I am sure if there was any information regarding 'all' the problems of the UK cluster he would put it on the official GOA site before it would even be posted on this forum.
And the XML.. well I just don't see what's the big problem with not seeing RPs you or other people made last week but that's another topic.

GOA GM's isn't active on this forum, they might pop on every now and then but they wont sit here day in day out. theres quite alot of posts from Requiel about that from just before he left. so "FAO'ing" one here wont give you a reply any time soon.

sure, sooner or later u might get one. but probably alot later then if u'd just send it to right now instead of here.


sometimes i wonder if ppl just make these posts just to make themself look like they actually cared....

Nor are they active about doing the one thing the english DAoC need right now:

Giving the players confidence GoA handles the situation in a professional way.


Face it, the boat is sinking and GoA doesn't care.

So with what do GMs occupy themselves lately? Seriously, I'd love to know that.

And don't give me bullshit about things that take place in the background that we don't know about. The only thing that takes place is cheese and wine tasting.

I`d recommend to be a tad more abstemious.

(sorry.. couldn´t resist)

Totally agree but plural? There's more than 1 GM now?? Nobody would ever know tbh

And don't give me bullshit about things that take place in the background that we don't know about. The only thing that takes place is cheese and wine tasting.
That "things in the background" crap died a death when Requiel spent 8 months lying to us sadly.

As I've said before the info coming from GOA is almsot none existant - No GM posts here on what is by far the most popular forums and the Friday news is a complete farce. Oooh more Yazdigerd crap that NOBODY cares about and the only serious subject (dyvet population) hasnt ever been discussed there ever afaik but hey lets use the DAOC News of the game page to advertise more NONE DAOC related crap that I imagine nobody cares about anyway.

Oh and if we're low on the word count for the "DAOC NEWS" lets patronise our existing customers telling them some crap they knew 2 years ago.

Oh and if we're STILL low on the word count lets remind customers of something we reminded them about last week that we still haven't implemented yet.

GOA are a sad joke with their customer satisfaction at an all time low and tbh more fool us for paying them money - saddest thing for me personally is i still love this game but the way GOA managed/run it is beyond ridiculous.

You can`t blame Bluesky for it, though. The frustation is understandable. It has been a year since GOA last released anything information related regarding the English Cluster situation. (We are working with Mythic on a solution!) ... And in the following year the number of English GMs has been reduced from five well-seasoned ones to one new GM who had only one GM to show him the ropes for a month.

There is no reason to be abusive of course, but we cannot exactly get any -less- information than we are getting right now. The E&Es are no longer even getting answers on their questions on our own board anymore. (The last replies are over a month old now, and those were echoes of the previous 11 months).
