Of course they're hiding and non-communicative. I'd be hiding and ducking also if I were hosing my customers.
We're paying to play a game that isn't even deserving to be in beta yet. EALand is the most unstable and bug ridden online game I've ever paid for. For heavens sake, TSO in beta was in better shape than this.
In it's current developmental state there is no reason anyone should have to be paying money for EA-Land, but they are, and it tends to annoy people to pay for a product or service that doesn't come anywhere close to meeting their expectations of value. They tend to feel c heated. Comprende EA? Cheated. People who feel they are being cheated sometimes say nasty things on their way out the door. Personally I wouldn't, I'd just leave, but I can understand why they want to vent.
Hey EA, you're game isn't even beta worthy and you have the gall to be charging us for it?
[/ QUOTE ]Stranger yet - You keep agreeing to pay for it. This doesn't give your argument much credence.

And even stranger yet, a mod who can't be bothered to read my next post on the same page before tossing around insults. Namely:
"Quit jumping to conclusions. I'm hanging around to turn my mountain of rares into whatever we call simoleans now, and then into cash. After that you can color me gone
My post was more oriented to how I understand the frustration and anger of our fellow players. We're being cheated and hosed, but I'm not whining about it. I'm only here for the money at the end of the road.
Have a nice day."
Try reading the thread before going into attack mode mod.

I also find mods should get their mouth washed out with soap sometimes.
I felt like commenting on the
'sucker' remark yesterday but thought I rather not. Didn't last long...
Guests snapping is one thing, they get led back on the right path (Pls follow the rules: Show respect at all times!)
It looks bad for the site if their own mods can't follow the RoC, not to mention how it reflects on themselves!

The bottom line for this thread really is that some players feel that there is not enough communication.
But there is proof that there is plenty of communication. There are posts to back up that communication. A new forum dedicated to that communication so the Devs and the posters do not have to scroll through pages of mumbo jumbo to find information.
There is a blog... that is updated constantly with news.
There are random posts here made by EA employees giving information.
And, if you happen to see one of the team in the game they will stop to help. I've witnessed this on occasion.
So there is communication. Some may feel that the level of communication leaves something to be desired. I do not feel that way based on the examples I listed above.
I feel that the communication is good. I like when the team banters with the players. I'm sorry that a sense of humor offends people here.
If this was my doctor curing my cancer, I could probably do without jokes and fun.
However this is an employee for a "game" that I play.
When I think of the word game... I think of fun. Enjoyment... that sort of stuff.
I would not want someone to be so clinically boring when talking about something I want to enjoy.
And, I also find it incredibly hilarious that people act like this game is their life. I love to game. I play several. But srslytake a step back, breathe deep count to 10 and chillax. It aint that serious.
Give your complaints constructively and not like a bunch of five year olds demanding a toy and you might find you are heard.
I have this lady in my office, the sound of her voice and her trashy new yawk accent makes my skin crawl, everything she says is at some loud tone which makes it all the more disgusting.
I assure you... 96% of the time (no matter how loud she is) I don't hear what she says... its my brains self defense to tune her out.
I hope thats the case with the employees who work on this game and how they deal with some of you.
You opt to be here... by paying your bill each month. They have to be here b/c they need to pay their bills. You are just their job. So next time you have a crappy day at work ... and some idiot is making it worse think to yourself in regards to EA "wow I'm that idiot, maybe I can get my desired results with a different approach"
I doubt anyone will... they'll just be all "OMGZ the Stratics staff girl just said IDIOT"
