They need to stop appointing retards to the PC.
That will never happen. After all, this is their incentive:
Quote:Seeking people willing to spend their time in a so called "focus group" for no real world pay and no in-game reward. Your input will most likely be ignored, and we aren't interested in anything you have to say that isn't a direct answer to our narrowly defined set of questions.
I've not been on the PC, but I have spoken at length with several former members. None of the ones whose opinions I respect had anything good to say about it. I still gave polite attention and asked the same sorts of questions of the ones whose opinions I do not respect, and didn't come away with a much different conclusion.
When you're asking for people with time to waste not playing your game and not being rewarded and not having much impact, you mostly get people with a need to belong and who bring very little else to the table.
Hell, even when I was in middle school and the local mall had a market research group operating out of it I was paid $15 to give my learned opinions on three different kinds of fritos-like chips and got to munch chips and drink soda with a bunch of other kids, some I knew from my school. Turbine doesn't even do that much for the PC.
