That is why we want Sr Staff fired....
Yes, what about badges? any update?
Also...
What about Transformation Sealbooks Vale Master and Heratic? Any update on their inclusion could make it up to us by including them (permanent ones) in an event somehow :)?
What about a Halloween event got anything in the works or no?
What about High Five update how far are we looking in the future for this?
What about High Five Part two ;)
What about the love phoenixdown feels for you any comment?
What about my sig image i didnt see anything that broke the sig rules why take it away? A PM woulda been nice.
What about a Producer update?
What about a state of the game update?
What about getting faster response time on bots? Obvious cat is obvious some days (ie when i kill the leader of the pack and the pack stands there like idiots for 4 hours after i petition with bd/sws going or heals on the group going when getting hit?)
What about Spam for president do you know if hes running ^_^
give back the TW badges and the seeds/fruits....
There are rumours that the extra hour will be used for returning our items, but i dont think this is the case. However, some clarifications wont hurt.
Thanks :)

Badges? Badges?! We don't need no stinkin' badges! /End Quote from Blazing Saddles.
Of course would be nice to get the lost badges back, but I'm skeptical we'll get them back...
badges! badges!badges!

also what about the res skills on battlefield? not working? still?

Territory War Changes
•When death occurs on the Territory War battlefield, resurrection is now possible using a Scroll of Resurrection or a resurrection skill. Conditional resurrection rules are the same as in Castle Siege situations.


remember?
Please with this maintenance activate the account services as you promised last time.

The extra hour of maintenance is running all of the clan name changes. There are a lot of them.

check EULA - all accounts and items inside belong to NCSOFT. They can do with them anything they want
You agree with this every time you log in game
one wonders, now that there are only 2 servers, if the 2 hrs that was previously spent maintaining 11 servers (then 7) is still necessary?

to clean up DB's and defrag/reboot a system shouldnt take more than half an hour at most, specially for the win xp servers you lot have been running since C4.

is there no way to cut down on maintenance time?
i skipped my work for tw badges, i told my wife im sick and didnt go to a birthday party to get badges, i want badges...

game > rl uh? u should get a couch doctor instead of badges^^

mb adjusting clanhalls? most of the clan names have been changed during some updates before (at least on Luna).
what about the news informer, so we can do epic quest again ? it was announced
game > rl uh? u should get a couch doctor instead of badges^^

huh? :() i dont need couch doctor im healthy, 14 years of same sport still going, skipped work doesnt mean game > rl, i had other things to do that day too, TW coming 9pm my time so yeah...dont judge the book by the cover :P and i do many rl things over game :)
what about the news informer, so we can do epic quest again ? it was announced
3rd time? :eek: gimme gimme!!!
++ for having an extra hour for badges perhaps this time or next time announced....
3rd time? :eek: gimme gimme!!!

my understanding is that it will be the same npc, i.e for people that have completed once only.
Hi everyone,

We're experiencing some unexpected issues getting the clan name script implemented into the servers, so there will be additional maintenance downtime today. The servers should be up in approximately 90 minutes from now. We apologize for the inconvenience.

If you're up for it, we have a collection of flash games here (http://boards.lineage2.com/showthread.php?t=211190). :D
What you dont answer any of my questions ^^
Xentheous, sorry but we don't have any updates about any of the serious questions you asked. :)

Looks like maintenance has finished at the originally expected time, yay! :)
By the way...

The News Informer is back for one week! Surprise! :)
Badges?

Now, now. Don't be so hasty. They had some important files to fix.

Namely, changed files today:

l2text\credit_china_04.htm
l2text\credit_china_05.htm

See? Certainly more important than your petty problems. ;)

calm down, reset is a one time only thing, people aren't getting a 3rd one.
The News Informer will not allow a player to take the Epic Quest a 3rd time. He is here to allow players to do it a 2nd time only.

I find this extremly unfair.

Why should we not be able to reset and do it a 3rd time. If you are allowing ppl to do it a second time?

It's not unfair at all; everyone is being given a chance to complete the quest twice. There is no intention of letting any players reset the quest and do it a third time. If a player has already done it twice, then they have gained as much reward as is possible from the News Informer. Perhaps you are asking, when can we offer players to complete it three times? It is possible that in future game updates, the News Informer will allow players to reset and complete the a third time, but I cannot guarantee this yet.

I believe Smittie was using a little cynical sarcasm but went over the CM head there. :eek:
No. I'm being penalized for having already been 79...

We should be able to reset again IMO.

I am confused on how this worked.
I did Epic before Freya, once Freya came I went to NPC and took quest again. There was no need to talk to news informer. Besides it was saying when I talked to it later that quest can be done only once...
I didnt finish quest second time, been terribly busy farming for CH and growing the clan and now with event, but i suppose that once started it can be continued at any time later.

No fancy pictures cabbie?

You fail.

Thank god you can still do your "everyone but me is a troll" thing right?
If you are giving second chance now for 7s quest, without announce before, just suprise, add news informer in december too... I didn't got 79 on one of my char yet and I had a hope that he will be later. I just want a second chance too on this char... :\

And fix herb of doubt on summoners plz :P :D
Sace account services still down? I can't change my name I keep getting this error message to contact ncsoft support? any news on that?

I had lots of issues with cards not working so I buy time cards now, dont want to be surprised during siege that suddenly the card which was good for years became "suspicious", being Romanian citizen is not fun...

How long will we be able to do the 7s quest for the second time? I haven't done the second round yet and I'm on birthday buff right now and don't want to miss the second opportunity.

The News Informer will be back until next Tuesday's maintenance, and after that we won't see him until the next game update is launched. If you've completed the whole quest series once before, you will only need to speak to the News Informer once to get the quest status reset.
Noticable lags started after Tuesday's maintenance. Please re-check the changes you made this time. Sieges were just fine, even inside of 300+ people battle and now it's hard to move with only 2-3 parties around. Also some server-side freezes for 10-15 seconds for whole command channel (or also whole server ?/).

New PC for whole CC? :)
Yes, server lags are annoying. Server freezes are deadly for most people in dangerous places. Just make healers click on heal even in freeze, it saves *a part of body we sit on* very often.
"Go buy new PC and blame your ISP" (c)

I'm not surprised that you didnt notice the changes coz with your party settings you dont need to watch at the screen ^^ Next time try to read carefully to see the difference between a lag for one player and for about 40 people from all over the world at the same time.

Yup, the lag is bad, I've had to start back to playing my GK instead of my StormScreamer sub.

I dont necessarily think its network lagg as much as it is video lag. There is so much more loaded when there is 4 billion ppl on the server.

I wish they would have gone down to 2 U.S. servers instead of just one. Its so impossible to play sometimes.

I used to play full details all the time. Now i just turn everything down and I do ok.


LF 8k$ computer to play this game lol
