I had a fairly lengthy conversation with Shawn in Discord and told him that Trent was widely disliked and was behaving unprofessionally in some situations. He responded with basically what amounted to "screenshots or stfu."

Unbanned. It was downgraded to a suspension. I guess it was "time served" because I am able to log in.

I don't know anything about the guy other than the few posts I've read and I already dislike him, immensely. Dude strikes me as a stereotypical soy-creature Reddit mod. Also, just learned that the Slippy guy I mentioned earlier (banned for the same thing) got his ban reduced to a 3-day...

The team is so small, silo'd, and has so much to do -- I think that each person probably has a lot of free reign to do whatever they want until something goes out of bounds or grabs the attention of someone more 'important.' From what I can tell, interpreting the rules falls entirely upon the...

I PM''d Shawn and made my case in the general channel. He basically said STFU, email someone. In my response to the initial ban, I already stated that it was uncalled for, and should be reverted. If it gets overturned, fine. If not, fine. Prior to EA I had absolutely no exposure to the game...

I can't. I simply cannot bend the knee when I did nothing wrong. If I were in the wrong, I would have absolutely no problem admitting it and accepting my fate. I wouldn't even appeal the ban. I was level 28 and truly enjoying the game and I'd like my account unbanned, but if I have to kiss...

At this point, for me, it's really not about the game anymore. It boils my blood to be wrongfully punished and it being handed out by someone like Trent makes my face twitch.

I just joined the Discord for the first time and scrolled back to the General Discussion from this morning and found a user named Slippy that got banned for the exact same reason. He gathered a bit more than I did and he thought the exact same thing in regard to why they were respawning so...

No. I'm being 100% transparent. I picked some herbs that were respawning too fast.

If you think I sat at a single node and just looted it non-stop for an hour, you couldn't be more wrong. First, it didn't work like that. Second, I was following my normal gathering track and two of the nodes (same plant type) were the ones respawning erratically. The node would re-pop a few...

His post comes off as infuriatingly sanctimonious to me, but I know it's because of my situation. I'm not going to keep rehashing what happened, but I wasn't sure if it was a bug or a mechanic. Still, I stopped after an hour out of an abundance of caution. The hotfix didn't happen for like 12...

It was a more than fitting name for my assling Rogue in EQ and a bit on the nose now lol.

'Illegitimately?' I don't know for sure. Somewhere between 100-150? Each node gave 1-3.

Without a doubt, but Trent is the person who sent me the email. So even if it was automated it seems like it had to be approved by a person.

If they retain the ban for this, then all the good will I had for the game will become hate and spite because I had absolutely no ill-intent. Scorned and all that. I even stopped collecting them not long after starting JUST IN CASE it was a bug. I don't think my reply email is going to do me...

Just off the road between Penshaw and the temple in Keeper's Bight. I'm not sugar coating anything, leaving anything out, embellishing, minimizing, or what-the-fuck-ever. I literally picked some herbal nodes that were respawning much too quickly. The thing that threw me off and made me doubt...

Email said exploiting/cheating.

Welp. It's over for me. I got permanently banned. There were some herbalist nodes that were respawning almost instantly and the patch nodes said that they'd be more plentiful. However, to be fair, I thought they might be bugged, but I also thought it was possible that like some other games...

Definitely. Between merch and subs -- a $500k injection (taxes aside) is massive for a project like this. Even if they lose 20% of the subs month over month for 6 months, they'll have taken in nearly 2 million dollars and still have 10k'ish subs at that point and 3 million if they maintain 10k...

Getting super close to hitting 30k subs.

My highest character is on Estaire, but I just joined the forum guild on Trem. The game has a lot of potential but there are so many elements that are just not there and the lack of polish in many areas is grating. Having said that, I have to keep in mind that the game is no where near done...

The announcement before the servers went down said it was to fix an economic exploit.

In the first hour of the EA, I was on my Rogue and had just changed some key binds. I accidently backstabbed the guy's mob standing right next to me and took the kill. It happened exactly one time. Literally, one attack. The pussy petitioned and a GM came and talked to me about.

I'm 17 now and enjoying myself immensely, but the goddamn weather system is oppressive as fuck. If it's not dark, it's raining, or foggy, or a sandstorm, or what-the-fuck-ever. I understand, and even like, the friction that bad weather provides, but it's getting to the point that just the...

I bought an Enchanted Copper Chain Tunic for 22 Silver. I have no idea if that's a good price, but for level 15, the stats are really good. Particularly given the fact that I was wearing a tattered cloth tunic heh.

My wife and I drove across 3 states to go to two different concerts that last weekend so I am a little behind the curve. Anyway, we got back yesterday afternoon and I decided to give the EA a shot. I started as Rogue, learned that soloing is definitely possible, but it's ass. So, I decided to...

I have zero EA/Beta experience, but I've always played Rogue and that's what I plan to play in MnM -- I was an Assling in EQ, but was hoping to avoid going down that path a second time. From what I understand, + to weapon skills is quite powerful and a huge incentive to pick a Halfling -- that...

I will never understand why the games industry seems wholly incapable of making a truly awesome vampire game. I mean, the genre is incredibly popular and would be a license to print money if someone could do it correctly. I can only think of 2 or 3 'good' vampire games produced in the last 25...

I resisted the strong urge I had to buy this game because I want to wait until it hopefully gets an expansion (or two) and/or an incredible mod gets made. However, the positive posts is making the wait difficult.

We all were. That pile is one of my biggest gaming disappointments. ISO-RPGs is the only genre that can keep me interested enough to play through start-to-finish without getting distracted by another game, and I absolutely struggled to complete Numenera.

I was writing an explanation but realized it's just far easier to link it and Moonarchia already has -- see his link. If you have any other questions -- shoot.

Yeah. The reincarnation system is the core fundamental that keeps a huge swath of the playerbase around. I've played DDO off and on since it was released, but have never reincarnated myself. Doing so would be significant increases in power for my character, but running R10 dungeons with...

This video is 9 years old, but that fact doesn't fundamentally change anything. Carry on, men.

The changes are too sweeping to post here. There's nearly a dozen Lamannia (Test) posts on the official forums that lay everything out.

I know we don't have a ton of DDO players, but for those of you that occasionally pop in to check things out, there's a patch coming in the near future that is going to dramatically shake up the entire game and character builds.

I hit 130 a couple weeks ago and have started the grind to max AA. All in all, after going from 1-130 in the new era, I feel there's enough of the EQ that I remember to have really enjoyed the leveling process and look forward grinding AA. The lower APM is quite relaxing and I find myself...

Despite not having played the game, I find the buff duration issue irritating. I understand their perspective insofar that they're trying to promote a world where players need to regularly interact with each other. Furthermore, I imagine that they don't want the issue that EQ has where you have...

To be fair, I'm not in the Discord channel and my only exposure to the game comes from here and the vods, but there does seems to be a large amount ass-kissing for the MnM team, but there's also a lot of people calling them complete retards. Impossible situation, really.

I still don't have a single minute played in this game (waiting for release), but I do watch each of Shawn's vods. That said, a fair number of the design decisions seem to follow the same way I used to approach running my D&D campaigns. Which doesn't surprise me at all given how heavily...

I remember playing Pathfinder: Kingmaker and failed a timed quest I wasn't even aware that I was on. It resulted in the game just flat out ending. Normally, you can reload a save to fix the problem. However, the circumstances were such that nothing I could do would fix it and I lost 50+ hours of...
