No, no wipe yet. I think OR is close and they are just waiting for that before they wipe the server.

So, basically, this is just an unnecessary thread made to give people something to hope for, and for the Staff Team to, once more, cover their own asses.

Honestly, I don't care who hacked what, to give what out to who. I do care, however about useless threads being made on the Forums that do nothing more than take up space, deceive people, or take up player's time.

There have been more than enough threads made about Staff members not giving out items to players. We get it Staff, you are squeaky clean, and none of anything that has happened in the recent months was done with your prior knowledge. Stop wasting our time, and telling us information that we either already know, or simply don't care about anymore.

I would also appreciate it very much if Staff didn't come on the Forums, and announce things that aren't going to take place, or if there are issues with said events which set back their ETA, then let us know. Announcing a wipe two weeks prior to... nothing happening, is a bit of a pre-announcement.

It isn't my place to tell Staff members how to operate, but in my opinion, Forum rules need to abided by everyone, not just regular forum members. There is no need to pound one fact into our heads as many times as possible, nor is there any need to get people's hopes up, only to let them down, without any explanation. All this does is cause confusion, and even more questions amongst the forum members, therefore hassling moderators even more so, taking away from your valuable time that you could be using to do something much more productive than answering questions that have been answered over, and over again.

Updating a thread that already has this information in it would be much easier, and much more accessible than making a whole new thread about it. Now, instead of people using the thread that already exists about these issues, people are going to use both threads, some getting different answers than others, and some, if not most of the answers they get aren't even going to be correct. So, now you have a cluttered forum, with shady information at best.

People wonder why others are always making new threads about the same thing. This is probably the greatest example. I could use the search function for some random fact that I wish to read up on, and get six different threads that give me little-to-no, or even misleading information about it.

Some may consider this a rant, and say "whoa man, calm down, it's just the interwebz." but I personally think this is very constructive criticism on a very pertinent issue.

When you say they are covering their own asses in the first sentence, all that talk of "We get it Staff, you are squeaky clean" sounds like sarcasm and is the only way people will understand it.

Then you start telling them how to do their job, and after, asking them to stop doing part of it, or simply said, just bashing them. How very constructive.

I feel sorry for you and for anyone that feels the need to vent on this forum.

If you want to continue our little discussion please don't spew it all over this thread PM me instead.

I would also appreciate it very much if Staff didn't come on the Forums,... and announce things that aren't going to take place, or if there are issues with said events which set back their ETA, then let us know. Announcing a wipe two weeks prior to... nothing happening, is a bit of a pre-announcement.

Maybe if you didn't take my posts out of context to try and prove whatever point you are trying to make, you wouldn't look so much like a troll.

You can try to accuse me of venting, and accusing staff members of doing things if you'd like, but it will do little more than prove how ignorant you are.

I am not going to take anything to PMs. You are much too entertaining for me to stop the forum members from seeing your flawed logic, and the spewing of molested information you are trying to convey.

People like you ruin these forums, and I suggest you take your inappropriate, and outlandish attacks on forums members somewhere else.

You just ruined the forum.

Staff. Please announce things when you think you should. If things fall through and they get delayed, if it makes more sense to communicate about it than to focus on eliminating the delay... that would be okay. Otherwise, do what you think needs to be done.

Since you're all volunteers, I won't get all bent out of shape and start demanding things of you. I'll point and laugh at those who do however.
