I just kind of shake my head at the way forums explode and people get caught up in such mob mentality. It's part of the way we get information now, with everything instantaneous via twitter and what not. So much knee jerk reaction. Sure, there sounds like some legitimate reasons for some people to be upset. But everyone needs to take a big, deep breath. If you were not directly involved in the mess on Ilum and the servers shut down, you're gonna be pissed. If you legitimately gained Valor on that day and there is a mass roll back of Valor, you're gonna be pissed. And there would be forum posts a plenty about it. These things happen and they become a no win situation for developers. Like Whiskey and Slurms say, working to resolve it within 24 hours isn't so bad. Trion was probably an exception to the usual Dev rule in how quickly they sometimes responded. That being said, I'm sure I can go dig around on their forums and find people upset that Trion made "knee Jerk" reactions in some cases with some of their responses. I'm not a Dev, but I'm sure it's like all things. You think you've tested things and it all seems like a good idea and working well. Then you get the general populace testing it and whoops! Didn't see that one. Not really trying to make excuses for BioWare. Just saying that the angry mob thing gets old. Now you kids get off my lawn. Now. I mean it. Imma gonna get a gun...

I've been leveling very slowly on purpose. I just hit 40 on my main, and I am slowing down on that character. While this does leave me a bit behind on things my guild is doing, it also means a lot less headache and heartbreak in the meantime. At the rate I am going, I won't hit 50 until February, and by then there will be more patches, additions and and content to keep things interesting at endgame. As well, in that time I hope most of the FOTM players will have ragequit, and left us with a more stable server.

I got an infraction for declaring war on Europe. Seriously. I declared all treaties null & void, and declared the U.S. would attack if EU players got the game codes before 12/20 and U.S. players didn't. The reasoning for the infraction was that the political situation in the world was "sensitive."
PS Did I mention this was the day *before* they wiped the forums anyway?
(As far as the thread is concerned, I won't be PvPing until it's clear the Valor gains have been rolled back).

I don't think this affected our server at all. It was a good back and forth battle all day.
With all the patches and more people hitting 50, world PvP will probably be good by mid-February.
