As reset occurred, watched a guy fly around in ack for a good 5 minutes, . well after the 4 minutes of terrain change was up... he then came out of our ack and shot at me ... 5 minutes later.. again now almost 10 minutes after terrain was to be reset, I blew up. I want a diddlying death taken off my score. diddlying aggravating.

Rude... we have a contender here
"death taken off my score" hehe
-
diddly you
It's more the server frustration than anything else.

OooooOo! He knows bad words too! You better do it! He sounds serious! He's gonna lose it!
You better be scared of a score geek talking all big over a message board on the internet...
Beeker

I'm not a scre geek really.. just had enough of crummy server performance lately. As for talking big, well I didn't threaten anyone or anything so you can kiss my ass.... if you are ever in my area. feel free to let me know, we can discuss this in person. :)

Definately noodle envy.

What a champ. And a chump.

perk the f-bombs

LMAO

Not exactly the smart way of doing things. Emailing HTC would have been the smarter move, I seriously doubt that anyone at HTC really gives a rat's bellybutton about demands like these.
No offense intended Steve, I've known you a long time but your reaction is a byproduct of the rank competition and you're for sure are not going to find any sympathy on these boards.
Ack-Ack

Im reminded of an old song:
"Everybody Sing! Bang bang Maxwells silver hamer came down upon his head, Bang bang Maxwells silver hamer made sure that he was dead"
Lennon/McCartney - Abbey Road

Heheh AKAK.. I hear ya... actually was just venting.. not expecting Dale and Company to "stop the presses" because I had a fit. Vented, felt better, moved on. So, 38ruk... it got me as far as I wanted it to. :)
Cheers .

Oh yea, everyone be careful not to make HTC mad by demanding things like the pay-for-play server actually function properly...
:rolleyes:
Seriously, if there's ever been a legit "demand" an online player can make of the game company, it's that the server doesn't crap itself to death every night. As they have been fairly scarce from the forums lately I suspect the HTC crew is working hard on the problem, but you've gotta be blind to not see the dozens of "server porked" posts springing up here, in the internet connection forum, and the bug reports forum over the last couple of weeks. And all those reports have been met with....
Silence
Any other company would get ripped on badly for that sort of thing, just look at the noise made when the everquest servers choke. I'm pretty sure HTC knows about it and is working very hard to fix any problems, but their customers seem to be remarkably patient about the whole thing, especially since the main reason to pay is to play in the arenas.
HTC's silence on the issue doesn't suprise me since that's how they deal with pretty much every problem in the game, but maybe it's a little much to expect paying customers to hold their tongues when the server they're paying to play on croaks. In my job, if I disappoint my "paying customers" (my students and their respective host nation's representatives), you can bet I'll hear about it. It doesn't mean I have to like it especially when I have already put forward my best effort, but failing to perform up to standards doesn't grant immunity from critique regardless of what job you have.
Of course, if someone gripes that my H2H host croaks, they can go pound sand 'cause that's ISP charges and electricity out of my on pocket that they're using for free :) Funny thing, nobody's seriously complained about it except for maybe ike2k, and even he shows up and plays in there...

Actually didn't they turn off the ranking system as one of the tests to find this very problem.
Not only was it not silence but it looks like they are trying to fix it to me.
I'm not sure where you get 'silence' from..because they don't follow up on every post that complains of the same thing?
how much would they get done, really, if they did that.
You'd all be happy about promises and nothing would get done..
That'd be IEN not HTC.

DONT PANIC! DONT PANIC!!!!!

Way to go eagl.
Its good to have someone, no matter how inane the original post, come in and say "he has a point".
Maybe if more people came in and ranted like this, HT would fix the problem sooner. Hell, they probably don't even know that these hicups are occuring at all. Nope.. they'll just wait until someone yells loud enough for them to hear it.
:rolleyes:

Eagle that's all well and good what you've writen except for 3 points-
1) you're a freeloader
2) you're a freeloader
3) you're a freeloader
these completely outweigh any argument you have.
Did i miss anything out?:D

It is one thing to register a complaint. It is quite another to do so in an abusive manner.
