You play this game because you enjoy it.
You need to support this game to continue to play it.
Then you whine when things change, but yet you still play it because you enjoy it.

Yes whining is a form of support because it shows you enjoy playing.

We flamed Turbine (myself included) when +3s' were on sale in the store, and yet I bought 2 supreme +3s.

Certain aspects of game has bugs, NO ONE wants them, and Turbine is constantly working to fix them. (A decent % of employees play too) And this game is their livelihood. They want to have a job, and are working to fix them. (cut them some slack) This is not a set of LEGOS that just snaps together. Sometimes they have to make a square peg fit into a round hole.

And sometimes a players passion for this game turns into employment with Turbine. How do you think they feel about new loot, changes to game mechanics, new Forgotten Realms content and items being sold in the store? Most likely the same as ANYONE that Plays, Enjoys & Supports this game.

We have a lot of stuff to further enhance our gaming experience. U17 with Epic GH!!! I can't wait to see what that's all about. And they are expanding FR content. Woot!

Keep in mind what E. Gary Gygax said, "The secret we should never let the gamemasters know is that they don't need any rules. (http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/g/garygygax182483.html)
Gary Gygax (http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/g/garygygax182483.html)
So don't think for one minute, that just because a sanctioned D&D module setting for FR the only thing that can be developed. It's an open book. If Turbine wants to bring Blackmoore, Greyhawk etc... into the game, and it fits into whatever story arc they are working on, so be it!

It's a FANTASY game. (see above quote)

We need the store and ALL the precious, sanctimonious, holy grail loot available in any way we can get them.


Remember when you started playing? And you were bouncing off the walls when you got all those collectables, and had 5K GOLD in your backpack?
YOU as a player evolved, so to does the game.

As we evolve in our little cyber world, we will hit little bumps in the road. But in the end...

You Play, Enjoy, Support and Whine. That's what us D&Ders do.
