I get the feeling sometimes that people here really didn't play back in the old days.

It kinda baffles me how there are arguments over the quality of client enhancements being a bad thing, I seem to recall that no one complained about them back in the aught-naughts (2000's).

People did complain about releases of half baked products, content problems, bugs, patches taking forever, servers brought down with too much traffic on an update.

But really, QoL enhancements to the client being bitched about, seriously? I don't recall anything like that ever happening in those days.

I get nostalgia, I am over 40 years old, I totally get that. This place seems more like it's run by 20-something hipsters that are grasping at a past that will ever elude them since they are too young to know better.

I have very serious doubts that true ol' folks run this place, it seems that with age comes the wisdom to know that bullshit should not be tolerated when people are trying to have fun, and SonyEQ produced quite a bit of BS, especially from the mind of BM, who got shit canned, as I recall. (Or left for other projects with a trail of flowers and perfume as well as a parade of virgins throwing rose pedals at his feet, thanking him for such a great game.)

Oh, and didn't anyone see The Guild episodes making fun of SOE? Uh, they were not inaccurate, that place was run by complete idiots for quite a bit of time.... which is why WoW ate their ever-luvin lunch...
