Simple solution. Speak with your wallet. Close your account and give Funcom the finger.

As for Gm's being incomepetent

a few months before I quit WoW, I sent a ticket in WoW, - the GM replying called me by the wrong char name. And also started to aks me questions (!) about the game, without me giving any suggestions that I had any more knowledge than the average player.

That WoW GM was clearly confused and behaved like a kid, but to Blizzard defense that was the only GM I remember that messed up.

As for Funcom, I haven't met any immature or incompetent GM's, neither AO or AoC, but then again I haven't petitioned many times in any of the games.

"Meeza spullon and gramma is ou me ma taut me. Yousa no write be nasta to ma speelin n a grumma !"

The GM was either incompetent or inexperienced. Probably inexperienced. It is odd the problem could be solved by one GM and not another perhaps there are a lack of clear guidelines ?

However...

The player involved was rude! A sort of selfish childish  "give it me now" attitude. Given the current batch of MMO's seemingly released more buggy and too early is probably not a great attitude to have. This "mis-tell retard" bit was also cowardly. I know I can be mouthy but this was nastiness directed at the GM who was just trying to do their job. I think the player involved should get a job where for the first few weeks he/she feels completley out there league. Learning curves and all. ;)

 

I wont comment on AOC as a game in this thread. Quite frankly i think the two issues above are more important.

You really need to be clearer when talking to GMs. I wasn't able to figure out what you really wanted until the second or third page. It really would have saved you a lot of headache if you just got to the point...

But anyway, that gm was obviously trying to avoid you by trying to get out of the conversation without even knowing what the problem was.

The mt was funny though

It''s my job to be objective, it''s my right to have an opinion.

I'd like to point out that was not me doing the talking, but my guild mate.

I just felt this was worthy of a post.

You don't really believe that was a MT do you? It's more of an example of an asshat.

Thats how you guys talk to each other in guildchat?

If I was a GM I wouldnt rush to help you all out either... Your reputation obviously preceeds you.

You see, right or wrong, you get way better customer service in all aspects of life if you don't act like a asshole. Thats just a fact. Never forget there is what a CA is required to do, and what they can actually do, and that is very often defined by your approach and behaviour towards them. In short, you act like pigs and you get served like pigs. What you saw here was a masterclass in a passive 'fcuk you' from someone who knows what you guys are about.

So one GM represents them all, Is that what the point was ? You say rages on , Do you have proof of other examples ?

Within the conversation it says you had been helped before by another GM, with the same issue . Does that spell out incompetence across the board ? Or are you simply trying to get under the skin of "fanboi's" with this entire post ?

It's just not right to judge a group by the actions of one ,I'd also like to know how that was a MT , WHo was he responding to ? I see no chat that warrants the word retard outside of the convo with the GM.(which still was uncalled for)

Besides this idiot GM there was this one

http://forum.goonheim.com/showthread.php?t=1073

In which the GM asked them not to do large scale pvp ( 3 or more groups of 5 ) unless they are doing an event.

Or this one:

In which he told two guilds they don't want them fighting each other.
