Possibly.  But regardless of who was the weaker link, management has all the power in the relationship.  They can say who is to blame, and they can fire people.  Even if they are wrong they often get away with much just because no one wants to call them on the BS and risk losing their own job.

I can't know who was right or wrong, I have no inside scoop into turbine.  I just laid out what I thought would be the most likely scenario if a bunch of developers rolled out a DOA product.


Oh I agree, manglement is rarely blamed when it comes to blunders like the DOA called IC. People lower in the corporate food chain ( usually at the bottom but if the Fail is big enough lower level Manglement can get hit too ) gets the blame and are pruned when time comes to cut the loses.

I was just pointing where Turbine obvious failure is hidden...
-  I'm certain that if Cordovan wasn't bound by the retarded rules Manglement gave him to manage the forum he would be somebody you could talk with. 
   ( just to please Ash : I actually know it as a fact, in the PC forum he is not bound by thse rules and he is almost Strake like in his management way )

- I'm certain that if the GMsd weren't bound by the anal retentive rules set by Manglement they could help us a lot more in game.
   ( just to please Ash again : In Europe the GM could complete quests, spawn items, spawn mobs, kill mobs stuck in walls, and so much more, they could
     even spend hours with a guild leader to get a robe just right as a uniform for a guild.  )

- I'm convinced that if Manglement didn't castrate the development team for DDO we could have had a much better game.
   ( but OTOH DDO has always been the ugly duckling : first as a LOTRO Beta test platform, then as a kobold that doesn't want to die... so it was given to
      the specialist in undead games : Severlin [ that's a third game in his bag after AC and AC2 ] )

Guys shut the fuck up with your long-winded nonsense about how you hate Cordovan and Turbine. Just because your bullshit is put up with here and you can't socialize in a respectable way on a rated T for Teen forum doesn't mean you got to spew shit in retarded threads crying about it.

I know you are being sarcastic, but I agree with you.  The handling of the PC forum is very different.  No one has told anyone else to eat a dick yet, though.  I'm pretty sure that wouldn't fly there either. 

I also agree about GM's.  You get the right GM, or make your case convincingly and they will use their discretionary abilities.  If you are a demanding ass or seem like you might be trying to get something for nothing, you tend to get the "company line".

When you finish sucking Cordo's purple veined sausage, why don't you chone and go play with like minded retards (ie.  ddo forums).
No-one cares about your opinion, fuck off Herpaderp.

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

I've seen the same thing.  some of them act like the kid who got a secret spy decoder ring in a box of cracker jacks and now think they are an integral part of the CIA.  All they want to do is sell more ovaltine (and otto's boxes), numbnuts. 



So fucking true!  Grin Grin Grin

He was cutesy about it.  Posted something like "EDA, arrange it how you want."  But he wasn't fast enough on his edit and then had to beg someone who called him on it to edit their own post quoting him.  Which they didn't do.  Smiley  Still didn't get him banned.  Might have gotten him a couple infractions, but probably not.  The whole system is horribly subjective and based on Jerry's prejudices.


It gets better.  The thread has been pruned heavily of any post which referenced the "eat a dick" post.  It was at least 2 pages long and now fits on 1 page and 16 posts, most of them gushing their thanks that the devs actually managed to fix character copy.
  

No, let me be Frank.

I will not chone.

I did what I did intentionally and while my primary purpose was not to annoy the other Vaulties, I acknowledge that it was a side effect.


Smart people don't elicit "side effects."  They understand in advance the consequences of their actions.

Actually when Nobgobbler first posted it was flat out "Eat a dick", then changed to "EAD", then to the "EDA arrange yadda yadda" when he got quoted. And after all of that Nobgobbler didn't even miss a single day of posting, FatJerry is so fucking predictable!  Wink

Pretty sure this isn't the dev's fix. From the pattern of shit that gets (not) done, I think for anything web-related, Turbine takes a number and sits in line while the WB web guys go do "productive" things, like make deals with Russian-based companies to handle their customers' money.

Nothing that good... depending on the Lambada Dump it will work or not... They are doing nothing... when it is reported that it works by some ( or by the PC )
then they say it works...

They are not going to waste monkey time to fix it.

This makes even more sense. Turbine doesn't care enough to even request the WB web team put it on their "Let's pretend we'll ever do that" list.

Typical example: It's supposed to work... Lambada is UP, I tried to copy 10 toons yesterday... They are all In Progress.

So Character Copy is still fucked up, the monkey didn't work on it. For most of the people trying to copy it will work, for some it won't
