In all seriousness - Rogean/Nilbog/Null

[Ssleeve]

Thanks for feedback Nilbog, I feel like 100x times better staying and trying to help the community here now.

I feel like some people just got frustrated and started trolling way too much and way too hard and it kind of got us all caught up for a bit.

Hard to take someone serious that actually is part of the biggest whining, training, exploiting guild on the server....

Perhaps if you was a positive contributions your "cry for help fight Nihilum" post would actually be taken seriously.

But since all you can do now is attack another man's RL family you have no credibility and considered a worthless flaking piece of shit.

My biggest concern is with the fact that (supposedly) over 200 people between blue and red have been flagged as using cheats but haven't been banned yet. I'm guessing the ban waves for cheats don't happen until Rogean is ready to patch the server, which means these people have been cheating with impunity for a while. Obviously I can tolerate this because at least we have some kind of cheat detection and there's way more justice for cheaters than there ever was on Live, but it's still annoying and unfair for the people playing legitimately.

Don't take this the wrong way though, I think nilbog et al. are the greatest and I will always have fun with this server. I have no illusions about the amount of work that gets put into it, and I can live with never having a patch because it'll always be better than vztz, amirite? ;)

You know.. I usually fix at least one thing every day. It really fucking blows when someone says you haven't done anything for months. Btw, I talk to Amelinda every day.

Diagnosis: You want a server patch.
Treatment: Do a Rogean patch dance.

Confirmed. Nilbog does talk to me every day. I do not feel left out to dry or thrown under the bus.

I definitely understand your frustrations but some of you have obviously never heard the phrase "you can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar"

and "dont shit where you eat , especially when the meals free"

This is really a Rogean specific question. He does server administration, management, ensures hardware is up and running, patches, and source development when he can. We have different jobs. I lead content development, management, bug fixes, and train new developers. Null is a pvp-specific developer and does pvp source work when he can.

All of the pending fixes require a full patch. This requires taking the server down and doing horrible work for I would guess around 30 minutes to an hour, depending on what all needs to be done. If Rogean is too busy to do it, I can totally see why. He's the only one who can give you a concise eta.

As far as new content, fearplane is the next slated zone to open.

Nothing really I can say to this other than, I don't want the server to die either. Why would I? Essentially it's an exact copy of p99, with pvp enabled and oldschool loot dropping. There could be a hell of a lot more people playing for a lot of reasons. With everything that has been repaired, fabricated, and implemented since pve opened in 2009, the pvp server is like 9000x more complete and stable.

It would be nice for me as well. As a content developer, I'd like for there to be patch every time a change is made. If there's a broken quest or unhotfixable issue, it amplifies time spent on reimbursements, etc etc.

The servers are almost identical. This should be apparent, but I will say it anyway. The pvp server has received more attention since release than the pve server. I know I spent more time this week working on pvp issues than pve..

Uh... we do communicate with you. And to this comment, I lose the will to type much more because I feel like I was trolled into responding. As a community, the pvp population had way more input into initial server launch and features than the pve server ever has.

Once again, when you see something that says fixed, pending update, it means it is fixed. Needs a patch to be fully implemented.

Diagnosis: You want a server patch.
Treatment: Do a Rogean patch dance.

Thanks for taking the time to respond.

My personal issue was what was handed down on an immediate basis versus what was ongoing for very long time and not handled in over a month.

Consider my skeptical on the non-bias from that.

This little pussy has the balls to whine about being caught cheating.

He has a job and has been sick but got right in to guild disband us immediately.

Get fucked lol.

Thanks for the reply Nilbog. I admit I was bitter when I made that post as I hadn't heard anything from any of you guys in a very long time. i'm not denying you communicate with amelinda or don't make a fix everyday I shouldn't have used that word, my bad. I was more talking about not hearing from you null or rogean in a good long while, which in turn just makes everyone start acting like a retard and making 500 server dead threads. i have seen a lot of "fixed pending update" posts, and didn't quite understand what had to be done in order to do a patch like that, my mistake and I apologize.

Posts like that really help players out to know the processes you guys have to go through in order to put in a patch like that.. I'm sorry you feel I trolled you into responding, that was definitely not the case. I just wanted a legitimate answer from a dev that the server is going on in a good direction and could explain it better, that's all.

Anyways, thanks again Nilbog for the response and all WONDERFUL THINGS THAT YOU DO <3.
