Subject: About Sit-Ins


Ok, so a huge gnome showed up at the first organized sit in. Now EVERYONE
wants to have one. Do you honestly think Smed is going to show up to hear
ANOTHER group of whining players, regardless of whether or not their
complaints were valid? No, he won't. This would encourage people to hold a
sit in for every damn complaint they had (Monsters attacking through
walls=Sit-in! Price for bonechips on vendors too high=Sit in!). The more
you use a tactic like this, the less impact it has. Smed was wrong to even
show up to the first one.

Your best tools for getting something changed are phone calls and mail. Not
Email, that's easy to just delete, good old-fashioned U.S.P.S.. Which would
you pay attention to more, a bunch of messages in your Inbox, or 10 50lb
sacks of mail being dumped on your desk? /Feedback works well to. It takes
effort, not drama. I play a necro, a high level one, and I don't feel that
this warrants a sit in anyway. But it does need to be un-nerfed. All a
massive newbie death fest will do is piss off everyone that's not a necro,
Verant included.
