That's really an awesome idea... It can be a community project to help him get his toon through content, geared and leveled up. If its done right it can also serve as a sorta guide for others that might be struggling, as well.Quote:

funcom and the dev team arent much liked, and they arent gonna get much liked before they speak to us
Without getting into a massive argument...
There are quite a few of us RPers around, who all pay our fair share and have done for many years; many of us right from the get-go in the original beta.
The majority of people forget AO was designed as a game to last 4 years as a way to story tell through RP events; and was at its core an RP game, with PvM and PvP included, not the other way around.
Now I’m all for PvP and PvM development, contests, etc taking precedence over RP. I'm not stupid, i know these are more vital for the game to survive, but every now and then doing something for us RPers is nice, like this contest. They're just catering to a usually forgotten part of the AO community.
Don't see what all the fuss is about tbqh.
You're absolutely right, they should've just shut AO down 9 years ago!Quote:

At least the point of the malcontent was pointing out the obvious, what was yours? Circular logic. :pQuote:

But great idea, get the people who run the show and teach them the game. lol
I give them credit for trying, and credit for their enthusiasm--true newbs are just so darned cute! :D
I should be suprised and shocked, but frankly I'm not.Quote:

The announcement was a future forum-based contest with prizes being given to players based on the most detailed, creative and overall best character backstory. The backstory can be 500-1000 words. The official contest info is supposed to be posted on the forums next week, I believe.Quote:

This may seem like stereotyping, but it's definitely a stereotype that I've seen play out over and over. She said she was quite involved with GSP. I've found that most people involved with GSP spend 90% of their time running silly dance scripts listening to someone else's Spotify playlist. I'm sure she could tell us how to get to all the various bars/party spots. She's probably even level 50, and got there years ago and then didn't kill a single other monster.Quote:

was there any discussion about the engine?
The only comment made by the hosts was "oh we don't get to announce the big stuff like that haha" #(possible inside joke there) the verbal tone was lighthearted.Quote:
