I can't believe you fixed the velocity problem over some of the more outstanding pvp problems. Like archers really needed any more buffing.

Velocity and balanced, 2 properties that should have never been added in the first place.

How about fixing the problem with EO and Para?

Or looking into the fact that people can avoid using 100-120 skill points by simply running around with a trapped box.

By 9.36 pm Jeremy had the answer.

Confirmed - just an oversight in the patch notes. I updated 'em!

And Colter, sometimes the reason that certain bugs get fixed is just because we can, rather than because that bug is higher priority - and right now, when we're training several new people, that's often what happens. Someone learns something, and a bug gets fixed - it's win-win!

Oh dear,Colter wasnt happy,and came back with


You don't need to explain it to me. The programmers at my work are the same way.

You hand them a list of 10 fixes in order of most important to least important, with numbers 1-3 being "must haves'

Come release day you find out they worked on numbers 3, 7 and 9. Of course they have the same lame excuse as you guys "oh well those were the easy ones to fix".

Screw the customer, just do what is easy for IT right?

In her right to reply jeremy calmly explained

There's also a substantial difference between bug fixes and balance changes, and it sounds like you're primarily concerned with the latter. They don't tend to end up on the same people's lists, though.

Lets hope the Mods were the reason for ColterDC's next move.

Jeremy I sent you a PM.

I know you can't wait to read it and get back to me
