But I can certainly see that it pissed off active players who were eager to get some additional proof that Age of Conan was back in the game.

It should work...but have you had a blogger account in the past? maybe that is causing an issue.<br />It does show your ID is "OPEN ID'd", so not sure.<br /><br />@Scott, Confusing language for a confusing situation...agree?<br /><br />@Tesh<br /><br />No matter the case on whether they had event tools or not. It all broiled (yummm,,,not fried) down to wording, and who is in charge.<br />The CM's did this, and made the company look bad because they fudged it up.<br />Bad language about the event, led to disaster, and from people who have little to not control of the game.<br />This is a PR nightmare, and hard to say how this will be fixed now.<br /><br />I do not know how Funcom can live down more negativity is all.<br /><br />CheersElementalistlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17536627257855895757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3647535028551977680.post-79547396367137716672009-05-25T06:51:21.853-04:002009-05-25T06:51:21.853-04:00Oh yeah, OpenEdge, would you fancy doing a link ex...Oh yeah, OpenEdge, would you fancy doing a link exchange and add each other to our blog lists?

Or did I just? :p<br /><br />Sounds like whomever is their community relations and/or events person needs a lesson in properly communicating with people who are not standing directly in front of them. I'm guilty myself of often saying things that the full meaning to me is plainly obvious then I get annoyed when the listeners don't get it, but I don't do that in writing. At least I hope I don't.Talynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17848472705380445923noreply@blogger.com
