Here's the thing, MMORPG.com has rules. People who don't follow the rules will have their posts deleted and or be warned / get a ban. It's that simple, and it wouldn't change no matter who the community manager is. Posts criticizing a game (for example) are ok, posts that bash a game without backing it up, posts that attack other people and the like simply won't be tolerated and frankly, shouldn't be.

Actually RvR means the active fighting of one realm against another. WAR accomplishes this in a number of ways, including scenarios. Because fighting in scenarios helps your side in the overall RvR battle, I would count it as RvR. The problem lies in thinking that this is the ONLY form of RvR. Having had the chance to play the game a couple of times, I can tell you that the game's RvR goes way beyond the scenarios and encompasses almost all aspects of the game. Focusing on this one point seems to be taking it out of context.

If this turns out to be the case, and I honestly can't say that I was given any indication that it is, then it contradicts what I was told in my interview. You got the interview almost entriely in Mark's words. For example: “We wanted to make our Capital Cities the best cities in any MMO. We think we’re doing that, but it came at a price and that price is that the other cities aren’t going in the game right now.” If they've changed their minds since I spoke to Mark, that's one thing, but what exactly would I have to gain from putting out false infromation? Hope that qualifies as a "full explanation" of doing my job. |

I don't want to ruin the surprise, but I also don't want you to get your hopes up. No, it has nothing to do with beta, or any other date for that matter. |

I'm all for improving the game, it has issues that need to be worked out, but I would like to point out that the people who actually do the developing on the game are different from the people doing moderation on their forums. Shutting down the forums wouldn't shift any manpower over to development. |
