If you want to be selected you need to apply.

If you don't want to be selected, you don't have to apply.

If you want to designate a poor sucker err, a winner, you can apply for him/her.

If you want to feed The Vault with nice things, you can applys, though your life expectancy after being selected is going to be as short as the size of the leak is bigger.

anyway, you have a week.  Roll Eyes

No, he would suck so much developer cock you wouldn't believe it. Those couple days he was on ddochat, he was total kiss-ass until the fouth or fifth time the devs blew off his ignorant complaints. It was only then he started being whiny enough they booted him.

Puerto Potty, would rim Cordo to get on the PC, but they won't pick him, he's a joke on Sarlona and not the kind of joke Turbine likes.

Actually, leaking stuff isn't that hard.  Nor is it easy for them to catch you.  I have a number of throwaway identities that don't tie in any way to my turdbine account.  The trick is to not give any identifying details in the leaks that can be tracked back.

She self claimed that she stopped playing when they nerfed manyshot. That will automatically disqualify her.

According to what I've seen in Vault Leaks lately, it seems relatively doable... I just don't want to know how much time it takes to sanitize the files that way, it looks tedious.

I guess the question is would the data you get and subsequently leak be of any value? We can all generally predict what sort of crap turbine will pull next. Its a lot of effort to go through just to know exactly what the consistency would be like.

I'd be all over the PC if turbine ever actually listened to them. I'm their ideal sounding board, I'm not terribly invested in the game nor am I focused entirely on power and nothing else. I do constructive criticism like nobody's business. But it's a huge waste of my time since all they want is yesmen.

It shouldn't be difficult to write a program to filter the html and output the leaks as we see them, and I sincerely hope that's how it's being done.

Clicking 1000 times is for chumps.  Computers are designed to enable us to automate these tasks.

If somebody is doing that way, I hope they at least learn how to use the ctrl + h... eventually...

It may even be faster that way. "<*>" = "" Huh

Why even bother? If you want to change the game for the better you would have to apply critical thinking and voice your opinion and in that instant you would be kicked out of the council anyway

If you are/want to become a yes, man (yes, ma' am?) you should totally apply. You wouldn't want to miss a chance in licking devs butts and be completely useless to the game, the world and everything else now wouldn't you?

This and rofl.
  

Dear players,

The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means.

Love,

People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly

I'm sort of considering it myself as well but only so I can subtly leak every stupid change the devs want to make. Forwarning for the critical thinkers and all that. However I don't feel like taking one for the team and having to be "active" in all the dev's expected views so have to agree with what Xploits said Smiley

Note how I said again. I was on the first PC with Flav. I didn't like it much. Ppl are too sensitive, and the stuff put in front of the PC is already developed. But I still think ppl should apply and try it out.

Active is very relative. Activity requirements seem very low.

2014 there was no activity requirements at all, 2015 I think they were supposed to require some, but not sure if Cordovan followed through or not.

Lol, I'll admit I walked into that one but I won't bother Flav as that won't be happening. Instead I should ask you about it as you seem to be quite an expert. Thanks for the laugh though Smiley

Well I can't say for 2015.

In 2014, most of us weren't, yes men. 

When we found an idea shitty, we told them the idea was shitty.
When we found an idea to be bad for the game we told them it was bad for the game...

example here : http://www.ddovault.com/Vault/Raids.txt

When we found an idea good we said so ( eg : Mirror of Glamouring )

You just need to understand that Turbine may or may not act upon what you say...
( again typical example above : they waited for a more comprehensive PC and probably presented it another way so that it went through )

What Turbine wants from the PC is feedback on ideas. the state of the idea will vary from first stage of thinking about it ( for the 2014 PC it was Epic Vale : with or without Greensteel ? for example ) to nearly completed stuff ( example : any update that contained items, they were mostly done, and they were just tweaked ).
And all the stage in between.

My previous post was not meant to imply you're a yes man or anything bad about you Flav (but I'm sure you already figured it out).

The first PC was probably just an experiment on how to screen the next ones and the whole concept behind it seems to be pretty much to shove as many BS up the PC asses without lube (read no possibility to change things since code it's HARD and thing have already been done) and see how they like it. if they do not complain too much advance to global destruction of the game with another update
