I don't believe it's ok to attack anyone, especially another poster. Bioware has the means to remove attacks against them - players don't. Also...2 wrongs don't make a right...3 lefts do...but that's off topic.
All warfare is based on deception If his forces are united, separate them If you are far from the enemy, make him believe you are near A leader leads by example not by force

I doubt anyone here knows the current work schedule for those employed by EA, but I would bet money that most of them work more hours than almost anyone in these forums. Demanding they work more hours because you are unhappy with the game is a bit obscene.

More progress on the game requires more people, not more whips. For reference of how EA used to be:

Additionally, many, many people use the accrued vacation time they have to take the entire week off since they get the one day paid already and it is good weather for a vacation. I have worked in larger companies where 25-30% of the work force takes the week off. Or do the dev's not deserve to take their vacation time because of your displeasure?

My buddy is a Lutheran Minister. He gets quite a bit of time off every year between vacations and sabbaticals and the like.

Why? Because believe it or not, his job is very stressful. His flock is older, farm community types, and he spends a lot of time in hospitals and funeral homes. He has to be strong and comforting.

Now look at the crap these ComReps put up with. If I had to deal with some of the idiots that troll these forums I'd need a month off from time to time myself just to keep from losing it and going off on some 12 year old whose entire existence revolves around an online game just because he rants about CS not making multiple forum posts every day.

We're lucky they talk to us at all.

They threatened Bioware...WITH A CLOCK. Its the epitome of nerd rage and misunderstanding of how the REAL WORLD works.

People's paychecks depend on this game. Bioware isn't sitting around doing nothing. So there aren't any forum updates? Who cares. Life goes on. We'll BE OK.

It was not until this thread that BioWare knew that they had a deadline.

Thanks OP, you very well may have saved the launch of GSH.

You honestly see dealing with the forums as THAT stressful? Seriously? My God lol. What can you possibly do irl that makes this look stressful to you?

I agree. It was silly. But there's no need to attack the guy. Laugh it off.

What rock you living under? Population wise this game is struggling alot.

They plan and work MONTHS ahead. You honestly think they're struggling to get it done in time? It's already finished. They're in the phase where they're dotting the i's. The PTS goes up this month. The livestreams are on schedule. They're ready.

I wonder how many people are copying this to use as a sig later.
