    Default You know what really grinds my gears?

    I have played this game for 2+ years. Due to some unforeseen circumstances I am back again for some unknown reason. While I have been gone a outstanding 1 mod has been released (it was released 2 days after i left).

    Amazingly there are still bugs in this game from when I was a beta tester...

    What the hell?

    After 3 years we still have:
    1) Tremendous lag, with complete randomness and no explanation, even after the merger of 6 servers, and the killing off of more then 50% of the server population.
    2) NPC's that will cast spells while dead / knocked down / held / or at a range that is far greater then a wizard with extend can cast from.
    3) Tempest spine graphics (rocks, walls, doors, etc) which broke in mod 4, still have yet to be fixed by mod 8.
    4) Potions that drink, but don't drink. (mostly happens with barkskin, shield of faith, etc) but still adds the cooldown.
    5) extremely long wait times for any GM assistance. 30+min.
    6) broken ladders that have yet to be fixed.
    7) And countless others that i can't think of right now because I'm ranting.

    We'd hate for returning players to feel this wasnt home...

    If you played for that long prior to leaving....

    Why did you bother to expect anything changed once you got back?

    I haven't found a broken ladder in some time. Where did you find them?

    i'm assuming he's talking about ladders that you keep trying to climb, but they keep resetting you back at the bottom. It feels like rubber-banding.

    there were 2 distinct ladder issues awhile back, this one wasn't fixed (it's not as simple as replacing ladders stacked on top of each other with one big ladder).

    That is what I got. I just want to know where. As I stated, I've not found any in some time.

    ive used most, if not all of these ladders, and havent noticed anything wrong with them. if having to jump onto a ladder is a glitch, then maybe i did notice, but still dont think it warrents such attention. i usuallly jump onto ladders anyway, because its faster to get up them that way.

    I am not convinced that you reallly want an answer ( I think you are trying to show that his complaint is unfounded) but just in case you do really want to know, try the last ladder in Chains of Flames...

    Last ladder in Chains... that is..
    just past the last fire elemental, ladder leads up to a ledge type walkway with 3 archers on it, and.. another going up... I think that is the last ladder.

    Given that I still have to grab the orb for reflagging I'll check that out. I think I normally end up jumping to a half way point on it so that could be a good reason why I miss it. I'll go check that one out. *makes note to climb all ladders from the base in the quest regardless actually*

    And I don't care if you are convinced or not, Oreg. If he wants to come in and complain, I want to see if some complaints are valid. That requires him to speak up for himself, of which he hasn't come back.

    The ladders in the Titan raid, the raid itself, do it for me each and every time...although it does seem to be alone. Could be my system? Dont know. But I have to jump on the ladder hitchhitchhitch jump off jump on, climb...repeat for the next one.

    The last ladder I am referring to is the ladder prior to the last elemental. Also the ladder immediately below it bugs frequently. It bugs if you jump up to it also. Test to your heart's desire...

    I am compiling a list of others for you since this seems to interest you. I will PM it so we don't have to feel pressure publicly to flame each other.
