Hello atys, its your friendly neighborhood booglywooster. The comments i see here are made by those that have my understanding and respect at any level. you too mag. lol
It is a personal philosophy of mine (and i don't know where it came from. perhaps in my real life i have no choice but to make it true), that even in the most dire circumstance and unfair situations that cause us to fail, falter, weep, and curse; we have been enriched by the experience of it and are better able to improve ourselves. What makes those experiences bearable is that knowledge. Good things are coming if we want them and we are now better prepared to receive them.
The decisions that are being made by the owners and developers are necessary and filled with moral and ethical pitfalls. Any decision made will not please all players. It then becomes paramount to choose the path that will hopefully ensure the franchises survival. That in-turn is a monetary decision fueled by investments made by Real People that stand to lose quite a bit. I don't think its fair to ask anyone to loose their shirt for my toon. (it is argued that my toon is insignificant because i just don't have the time or dedication that others do in theirs) I believe all players are significant and have their place in a dynamic, shifting, and complex society.
There are so many opportunity's here and means of game-play that there is no reason for the game to ever become stagnant again. Even if the presently powerful become and remain powerful again, it should be acknowledged that all players have influence that is not necessarily tied to the best armor, weapons, or even skill training. That unspoken influence is often dealt with screams of "not fair! ticket ticket ban"
If you truly have strength prove it, but remember that not all have honor. Just like the real world that exists inside of this complex virtual society. This game can continue to be a success if you let it.
LET THE GAMES BEGIN
nice words
