	Feel like thats not hurting them enough, though. I want somebody at SSG to at least experience a mild case of heartburn.

	I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

	Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger. We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

	Dr. Kevorkian put more effort into customer-retention than SSG does.

	I dunno, feel like bad publicity is pretty bad, when said publicity is namely trashing a really important part of your business. For every dolt on the motherboards saying "Well when I needed customer service, I got it!" there are 10 more complaining about closed no response tickets and outright criminal treatment by GMs. That's definitely going to chase away new players. CS is one of those really vital and under-appreciated things: when you don't need it you don't care, when you need it and don't get it you walk away fucking furious and tell everyone who will listen.

It's interesting which people are complaining too - there's some serious, solid oldtimers in that mix, who have been on SSG/Turbine's side for years.� There's been a visible mood shift it seems since the company split. noamineo wrote on Sep 25^th, 2017 at 8:10pm: CS is one of those really vital and under-appreciated things: when you don't need it you don't care, when you need it and don't get it you walk away fucking furious and tell everyone who will listen. Totally agreed.� And most people who get good service won't even post at all.� I had a good experience lately, but signing in to that craptacular forum, dancing through all those hoops, etc., just to post some puff piece... I'm just not fueled the same way as when shit went Terribly Wrong.� � It almost feels like they're just saying internally "ok, let's focus on making this expansion fucking awesome - we'll get some cash, everybody will love it, and we'll have a little breathing room."� Problem is, they don't have the time.� We're still at least a month out, and this has been going on for way too long.� When you see submissions in the forums from guys with one or two posts, comprised of "I bought MOTU and the key doesn't work," and there zero official response... if I were new, that would send me running in the other direction.� Old games should be more stable, not less.� And if they're not stable, CS better be.� Just make a one-off key, or flip the bit on his account, or do something.� You can't have people waiting six weeks for a response.� That's suicide.

They are DEFINITELY shooting their own leg off with these poor responses. The problem is - and I am guilty of this too - even WITH this shitty problem tons of people WILL pre-order the expansion to get all the shiny "only if you pre-ordered this!" tchotchkes. I know I will. And the key probably won't work. And it'll take CS a year and a half to fix it. But yeah, the math works out to something like people are 17 times more likely to complain about a bad experience than to comment about a good one, so you better fucking make sure people don't have bad experiences. And SSG fails hard.

	Wipe wrote on Sep 26^th, 2017 at 1:41pm: Just like he/she knows that preorders are retarded, SSG sucks and will likely fuck the release up. Yet gonna preorder anyway. bit worrisome that september is over and there are not even any details on what is coming in ravenloft. only thing we can expect is that the update will invalidate 76% of your current gear set and sentient weapons will have to be the new mortal fear if they plan on making people stay at cap to grind their weapon xp(lol moar grinds pls!! yesss). the quests will be shitty, rehashed copy pastes of old quests you did 1,438 times already. welcome to ddo, enjoy your stay.

I own almost 0 content.. only the expansions and whatever was part of the black fri sales.. If i could buy stuff as it goes on sale while im vip, id have much more. But they trapped me. Plus I need dat 10% That trap should be illegal. Selling people a subscription for access to content that also just happens to make it so you can't buy any content so you can drop your subscription is a mafia level scam right there.
