Heck, this server is a lot better than SEA. At least the gms came into woe to check things out even tho they did meddle with a few players and wipe them with their imba attacks..
the point I am trying to make is that WoE has made the whole game far to bugged to allow it to remain. not how often GMs visit WoE here compared to SEA.
the game in its current state is more of a closed beta testing feel than a open beta game.
WoE should have been removed first day and put on a temporary test server. this has been done in many f2p games and still is done. it is in no way a hardship to do this.
instead it seems like they see no problem having players continue to play in a closed beta environment and run a cash shop at the same time. highlighted text in this response to the reports of many adverse affects it has had on the whole game shows they know it is test server content imo.
Ok, first of all everyone, please understand that this is test W.o.E. Because of this, W.o.E, itself is an entire work in progress. That's why we encourage the finding of bugs. If you or your guild found a bug that can be abused, you are MORE than welcome to come up to me or Njoror to report it (and in this case with the door bug, it was reported in a timely manner).
Otherwise, any comments, feedback, or ideas regarding W.o.E, please feel free to make threads or comment in the W.o.E test forums. Remember, constructive criticism threads with good feedback and a nice tone will be given more attention than threads that just go "ARRRRGH, FIX THIS NOW".
leaving it in after it is known to them from many post and screenshots of bugs across many class' and instances is in effect saying pay us to test our game. no other f2p or closed beta I have ever participated in does this.
there is no good defense for allowing WoE to have remained in game at this time with a live cash shop other than pure greed. the very same events the are running for it could have been done on test server.
had the bugs been only in WoE I could understand it, however they are not only in WoE they span every aspect of the game.
