Distension discussion

[Liquid Blue]

I'm the one with the social handicap

when you're the one constantly whining about how everyone is against Distension and has tried to throw hundreds of dollars down just to get your previously unstable arena game up and running

yep

I love the dick, alright

[TagMor]

lol?

Ok we are all social handicaps to some degree.
I like playing a 2D spaceship RPG. And due to incompetent management have been forced to guess and hope as to when it will be available... Which, when spread out over months of excuses and a disinterested staff, tends to build frustration.

I know you love cock, it is quite obvious.

[Zek]

Can somebody explain to me why distension needs an op to be its champion for it to be hosted? Does all the staff except HMS hate it because people don't want to play elim anymore or something?

I will say that Distension is the only thing that's made me come to Trench Wars(i.e. play Continuum) regularly for years. I'll occasionally stop in to see if a decent event is being hosted and play for an hour tops but it's all the same these days. It's really disheartening to see the first really new thing to come to the zone in years being snubbed because of all the conservative minds in the staff, so I hope you guys can work something out.

you needlessly get frustrated over and bitch about it, throwing things out of proportion. The guy who created the event said "hey I'm starting to fix these problems, chill for a little bit" and you started complaining about stargazer quitting. Fucking relax, this shit won't be fixed in a week or so, that's been stated like 20 times.

If you can't be patient at least stop posting bullshit conspiracy theories about how some higher power is trying to constantly bring down Distension, you aren't helping the people that are trying to get things working.

[TagMor]

dude just stfu you have no idea.

There have been many reasons to question Staffs interest in Distension.
For instance, cutting the scheduled hours in half and only at times when most people are sleeping/working.
Then you have people like ward who has staff influence, and has been quoted saying the distension issue is a "war".
When qan dissapeared, HMS said he didnt know if qan will ever be back DUE TO STAFF ATTITUDE.
Now HMS has left/on strike for what is most likely Distension related.

Edit: Oh and despite requests in various threads, I am yet to see TW management make a post regarding their intentions with dist.

So again I am going to ask you to stay the fuck out of a discussion you know nothing about.

[Liquid Blue]

instead of being patient, you're doing nothing but whining

oh noes, staff isn't keeping you up to date on every single second of what's happening

let's whine


oh noes, Distension is not the number 1 concern of the zone right now

let's whine

oh noes, the creator of Distension has said he's working on fixing the problems

let's whine

questioning staff's level of interest in Distension is going to get you nowhere. Whining about it in the Distension topic is going to get you nowhere. People are working on it, stop whining. Be patient.

There's a reason staff isn't responding to your cries, and I can't blame them.

tag-

Everyone agrees distension is unstable, and dugs doing his best to fix it. You cant expect higher up staff allowing an event to happen that causes the zone harm. Maybe a reason the higher ups havent responded is they got better stuff to do. (like trying to get a new server for tw dev, promote trenchwars, bot coding) It may seem they do nothing at all, but i can say easily just from looking at ssforums and twcore that they have full plates atm.

Also main bot coders- MMav, alinea, milosh, dug. Mav has a full plate, and im positive dug is near the same. Milosh has med school and alineas prolly just as busy. Then you tack on christmas and holidays, you cant expect them to be coding the bots instead of spending time with friends and family. So i say just chill, wait a week and see what happens.

Edit: Also hms is a nice guy, quitting the game because distension cant be hosted 24/7 doesnt exactly seem like him. Im sure theres other contributing factors.

slurp, slurp, slurp... gulp.

it takes 5 secs to make a forum post. Look through and see how many times staff have addressed the many questions etc in this thread. The increase in "whining" is a direct result of Staffs failure to make it clear wtf is going on.

More important? Dist created the most interest in TW for along time.. Moreso than TWL, and yet getting a new server for dev is more important? hmm

When Distension came out of Beta it's chat constantly had 5+ lines.. now it is down to 2 at the most. People are leaving because of this giant fuck around and ZERO input from staff.

[HateTheFake]

tag, dev zone is used for everything. Afterall thats where dist beta was hosted, thats where all the new events/ elim maps and everything come from. So yes id label dev zone more important then 1 event map. Specially when dev zone accounts for so much of tw.

So the 2 lines of chat couldnt result in people being gone for the holidays or just deciding distension wasnt worth it?

[roxxkatt]

So again I am going to ask you to stay the fuck out of a discussion you know nothing about.

already did

distension was in dev zone, for when qan was alone, but it existed IN TW for a YEAR in beta.

no it hasnt been a full year, either way it was dev zone that allowed for it to be hosted

Yet zone population is at a two year high, go figure.

[D1st0rt]

I would say if you guys were addicted and needed a 2d spaceship rpg fix to go play hyperspace, but I don't really feel like having to hear this shit on another forum so please don't.

[TagMor]

then why did you bother to make a post?
hyperspace is the lamest shit i eva seen. The reason people like Distension is becuase it is basically TW with more variables...

[dako]

If you look at the other main distension thread, it was started in October 2007. This was when distension was in public beta in #distension. Yet again, you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
