That doesn't make sense, you can get the helmets, legs... Sunflare? I doubt not having the cape and gloves is going to balance things out.

If it's not an actual problem with adding the items then I don't see why they shouldn't be added, people donate so they don't have to do raids/arena to get the items they want, any word from Henhouse explaining it would be nice.

They have forgot to add some stuff and will now excuse with the ''u need to do pve'' for the 2-3 random missing parts that aren't anything better than all the other items in the same vendor.. not adding them makes no sense.Hen is just too lazy to add them now probably.
Btw Hen, you removed all the cool mounts half year ago and u said u r gonna add them with arena rating/points.Its been way too long now dont u think? No time? in 6 months+?
You guys wonder why the s3 and s4 arena points req are so messed up?
What happened with the HK titles?
What happened with the new tbc mall that was annonced long long ago?
Why is everything going so slow?
When i open a ticket that cant be answered by a mod im waiting days or weeks without any1 answering it and then i delete it myself.
There are 0 gms, zero.Only Hen and he actually has no damn clue whats going on in the server, since he's not playing and isn't interested in arena ladders, doesnt know any of the players or anything like that or in some situations doesnt have enough knowledge of the game to solve a problem.Sorry thats the truth.I never liked Endania but now i see how important he was for the server.

HK titles are implemented idk about the rest of that stuff, as for the mall, they said it might be possible to move it to Shattrath, but everyone didn't like that idea for various reasons so it was canceled.

It's not that I'm too lazy, it's that I'm not going to. If we were to modify the Sunwell vendor, I would delete stuff from it, not add. Yes, I could balance it, but you would get less gear then. When 2.4 came out and we offered to buy Season 4 before it was even out on retail yet, and Sunwell gear is when I put the $5 price on it. It was, extremely cheap but we were also a very small community then. I'm not going to hand out the rest of the top gear in the game to players for $5. It's just not going to happen -- you got to work for something.

The ones I chose to add back have been back in for some time I think. If you're referring to like the Raven Lord mount and stuff I probably have not chosen to add them back in yet because we have to address issues with certain abundances of currencies and such.

They're not messed up, they are working as intended.
ZatYo wrote:What happened with the HK titles?
As we had said before due to technical problems with the way honor points, arena points, daily kills, total kills, titles, selected title, etc. are stored in this giant data blob on 2.4.3 it bugs up terribly when it's trying to kick off all the old donor titles and put in the new PvP title. It will cause your character to make WoW Crashes almost everytime you login to the game at least once. We have no problem on any 3.3.5a server MaNGOS and Trinity because they have already extracted all the data out of this giant blob into separate columns in the database, super efficient and easy to use. To get data out of the blob is extremely hard because the SQL queries are very hard to understand but it's been me at Oregon who is slowly trying to develop a Step 2 of data blob extraction to get out PvP related fields. (face features, gender, etc. were extracted months ago)
ZatYo wrote:What happened with the new tbc mall that was annonced long long ago?
Did we actually "announce" a mall? I honestly don't remember it. I've brainstormed it with people before but we've not actually made any plans. When we were hunting for mall locations on Wrath we looked at Shattrath and actually thought it was a terrible place anyway.
ZatYo wrote:Why is everything going so slow?
I have no idea what you're referring to as going slow, if you mean new developments and features from me, I'm sorry I'm not a living walking, talking robot that requires no sleep or food that doesn't have daily real life activities to attend to. We have another server, things were not going to get any faster.

Probably because your usually begging a GM to give you something for free. Deleting your ticket will be the reason you never get any help.

Endania is here for Christmas break but that doesn't mean he's come back to start working on things for you. We have GMs, a lot are just not as active anymore. Toosh just today got 2.4.3 installed again, Vord is leveling in Cataclysm, I just got on Christmas break and have been spending every bit of it working on Smolderforge. Wrath currently, but I'm switching gears to TBC now.

Hiring GMs is a very important process, and I stress "important". If you want some GMs I'll be glad to go and hire some of the promising looking Irani ones that have applied -- then we'll get some real progress and help in ;). No. Usually I need the time to notice these people and have some sort of conversation with them. There are several apps that I'll speak with the person and know I don't want them as a GM at all -- it's a very, very serious process which is why my GM teams are always usually quite good. Be patient and we'll have the time put aside to hire.

I play warrior, i never pves and i dont want to ever pve, i dont have my pve gloves and i cant use them in pvp
My opponent plays druid/mage/anything else, he never pves and doesnt want to ever pve, he has pve gloves and can use them in pvp.
Thats what im talking about.. its not balanced.You said u can balance it but we are gonna be geting less gear.If u remove all the pve from the vendor its gonna be wonderful, ill be geting less gear and the others too.(thats called balance) And yes i know that u cant do that cause its also a PvE server.So just add the missing parts, aight?



''If you're referring to like the Raven Lord mount and stuff I probably have not chosen to add them back in yet because we have to address issues with certain abundances of currencies and such.''
SINCE HALF YEAR? And you are asking me what i am referring to as ''going slow'' ?


Why are some HORRIBLY WRONG things ''Working as intended'' in this server?



OK, lets say you havent annonced a new mall.Dont you think it is time to actually annonce 1? Who the fuck said it has to be shatrath?
Things ARE going slow.



I've never begged a GM to give me something for free, only probably things that are for free. I asked you once to rename me (yes for free) cause with the new donation system there is basically NO way to donate 3$ like it was before. I didnt get any answer, a ''No'' and explanation why ''No'' would be 100% fine.So can you please stop making things up?



Get a clue whats going in the server, get to know some of the players, that way it may be easier to hire new staff.
