Without Google I never would have found it...If you go look at the patch message from when they made the changes it doesn't even list the changes to the experience system...It just references back to the producer's letter and is kind of weird about it. Don't remember seeing anything like that before or since.
They just revamped the entire exp system, something they swore they'd never touch, and it was almost like they were pouting and didn't want to talk about it or something....Such classic Verant...reminded me of an ex gf....ALWAYS right the first time....Like Alchemy and barbarian shield graphics were "working as intended" for almost two years...Untill they actually bothered to listen to a thousand people and actually have a look at them. You just know one of those dorks kicked a hole in the wall the day of that patch.
Funny thing is, I got all warm and fuzzy yesterday when I saw "old" Freeport for the first time here....When I saw the name of the producer on that letter last night I kind of cringed. Of all the things to get nostalgic about from classic EQ, Abashi isn't one of them.
Wonder what ever happend to that jackass. I wish I were a bigger man, but I have to admit, I kind of hope his karma caught up with him and it was really really bad. LOL That guy is the only person I've ever seen....anywhere....who actually seemed to relish being overtly abusive to his paying customers and still managed to keep his job, somehow. I mean, one time he put up on the boards a compliation of bannings he got to do in person in game, most of them were people who just said extreme things about him personally on random message boards that could be construed as threats. I better watch it or he might find this and report me to the FBI....apparently he did that too...He bragged about it on the boards. LOL Such a complete douche nozzle.
I had completely forgotten about all that.
