Runes of Magic US / AU

It's painful watching some of these all day posters post stuff that 2 hour a week players know about in my guild.

Tip: spend less time on the forums, spend more time learning how to play your classes.

Quoted from "engelixe;590339"

I had a class in "Interpersonal Communication for Business" and the professor said the worst thing someone could ever say is "That is Not My Job".

No, the worst thing to say is "I don't know" without following up with "but I'll find out."

Actually in ROM thanks to time difference worst thing is 'till tomorrow'.

Charm of business over big pond and support matching hosting servers...

It's 3PM, 9PM in Germany.

How long until someone notice that this kind of support is not working well??

...How does this thread have to do with classes at all?

Just another demonstration of the old "those who can, do, those who can't, teach" rule. This is pretty clueless thing for someone teaching business class to say. You would have to have 1-person business not to have specialization of different roles. There are plenty of situations where "that is not my job" comes into play.

So, what exactly is the problem here? Not sugar coating the statement? Saying something at all?

Oh, and gonna disagree with Kalvan too. "I don't know" is perfectly fine response, unless followed by "and I deeply don't care". :p

Glad rusty is not leading support...

And remember one of his main complaints - It is bad, but IT CAN GET WORST.

At the time we are experiencing above, all it sounds like we got what we deserved...

Sorry, Rusty, but I have to agree with Kalvan.

I used to work for a major aircraft manufacturer. At one time, my immediate supervisor had a problem with almost constantly having to tell *his* boss(es), "I don't know." when asked why certain (many) jobs or projects weren't finished or were badly behind schedule. He *never* followed up by saying "But I'll find out and update you." It didn't help that he rarely sat down with his lead man to find out the whichnesses of the whys, parts order status-es, inspection issues, and so on.

He didn't last very long as a supervisor. He wasn't very good at it anyway.

Sadly, many of the issues that our CMs and Mentors see reported here in the forums are, for them, unanswerable. They simply do not have information that can be passed along. I have seen that many times, we're told that the issues have been reported and forwarded up the chain. But otherwise, I think the best answers--for the CMs and Mentors, at any rate--are no answers or responses at all. It's not as if *they* can snap their fingers and instantly fix things.

In response to RoMage's comment above yours (#43), yeah, the time differential between Berlin and here in the currently snow-blown wastes of the US Midwest does put a damper on things. However, we've been told by our CMs that there *are* people working in Support most hours. Maybe tossing a ticket to them in what we see as late night, even if Support can't make a direct fix, will give those who *can* try to do something about a problem a bit of a heads-up. Surely Support can pass along information about an issue.

Presuming, of course, that the person who submitted the ticket has the presence of mind to proffer a detailed description without pumping a crapton of hydrogen onto the fire. (I'm looking at certain disturbed people here.)

BTW Rustyx did you see his response on # 5?? LMAO, just confirmed that person doesn't play ROM AT ALL and has no clue, sad, very sad.

I apologise for my honesty. It was completely unacceptable and I promise to make up some hogwash that sounds half-way believable next time so that you can be convinced that I do know what happened. Even when I don't.

I did post answers to the 3 I did know the answers to. If you must criticise me for my admission of not knowing something, then go right ahead and please consider me an open target for your amusement.

Did Daily quests level 45-65 get more XP/TP to, or just regular quests?

i do suppose this was better than the "your complaint will be forwarded to the appropriate department" automatic response

It was just some of the regular quests when the 45-55 changes were made back in June. I'd guess the dailies have been left alone again.

When will all this extra tp i missed out on be credited towards my character?

5.08 Patch Notes that really matter:

Quoted

Yes the dailies were indeed left alone. :/

Comments:
1) Festival of Fire - No valentine day fest this year at all?

Quoted from "GarySandstorm;590258"

Flower festival is the valentines festival.... where were you sleeping? unless you talking about something else.

Hmm nothing else comes around this time, except the Mardi Gras/Carnival/Mask Festival after the Valentine's Flower Festival.... prolly what vfwiffo meant instead? But they skipped that Mask Festival back in Spring 2012...
Meanwhile, the Fire Festival was supposed to occur back in January after the Snowflake Festival & before Flower Festival....

Quoted from "vfwiffo;590260"

Costumes was a sale, and we got costumes, although not 1 diamond ones. But, events were different as I recall. Little Angel/Little Devil in Varanas East/West, turning toons to frogs and princesses, broken hearts, etc. They do rotate events in and out of festivals, though; and there was some similarity in themes, yes.

Quoted from "effervescent;590266"

I thought the Little Angel/Devil and Frog/Princess things were from the Storytelling Festival, though I could be remembering wrong.

Ya the Angel/Demon event was part of the Fairytale Storytelling Festival in the late summertime instead.


<3 the increases in xp in those areas

It won't be. When you completed the quests on your character, you obtained the amount of XP & TP stated in the quest reward. When people complete the quests now, they will get the XP/TP stated in the quest reward.

Quoted from "Nenysvor;590693"

Like I said yesterday, I will come back with a few more details regarding the quest experience changes.

Here I am!

• Like you noticed, the changes are a raise of experience
  
• The raise for each affected quest can be different, i.e. 25%, 50% or 100% more experience
  
• All zones in the noted level area are affected, including instance quests
  
• Each zone has a different amount of affected quests. Some zones only a few quests changed, some more, up to more than 100. Two examples of more changes are the zones Weeping Coast and Savage Lands
  

Just XP or XP and TP bonus?

This is not much more then what we figured out yesterday, still - thank you for spending time to look for it.

@ Raves - they forgot to add 'New IS Item':

* Siege War Transport Stone - This new item will ensure you can safely enter the SW. With our new sale, get 10 for 190 DIAS or by one at 15 DIAS. (we all know math skillz were not required for sales department intern, nor is play of the game)

* Crash less rune - for whole duration of buff you are less likely to crash - real deal at only 18 dias with buff that can last up to 2 hours, if you don't crash.

* Bug Zid in World Chat - real deal for 1 dias.

LOL Atar and that is why we have the best people on RENI!!!!!!!!!!!

How stackable are those, Atar? If not very, I may need to buy some storage space. I bet I won't be the only one.
