DDO Players Council Application

[Miguelon]

Is a good idea to take a look the game do...players opinion are the best way to improve. Thanks

[Miguelon]

Ach, can I change my answer to "least favourite quest"?

My least favourite quest is any quest that requires 2 or more real players to complete, because they can't be done solo.

there is a choice...i dosent like quests or chains that you need to take a long way....or anothers that the reward are really poor....indeed talking about necro 2, water quest is boooring=long and easy to be lost.

I submitted my application months ago to Cordovan and (after I discovered it) by following the link. I received no response and at this point...

How many slots are you looking to fill?

By any chance, did you happen to send it sometime when they weren't looking for players?

We will have future application opportunities at various times moving forward, but any applications sent in when we are not actively seeking applicants will be ignored.

Does being a VIP subscriber increase the chances of someone being selected to participate?

It was right after we had the huge discussion about what the Council actually did someone mentioned they were always bringing in new members to fill gaps.
To be honest, I'm a bit salty at this point and don't wish to waste my time being told, "Sign this NDA, what are your thoughts on this, well we're doing it this way anyway."

Maybe a rename is in order then...a Council is generally a representative body that does exert some executive control over something. Calling it the Player's Council has been creating that false impression for years, and its led to animosity against both PC members for "not doing their job" and devs for "not respecting the Council's thoughts/wishes".

Except that when it was the Mournlands and everything was secret, people still devised misconceptions about it.

Misconceptions are an inevitability of human nature and of the social groups that we constitute -- but then it doesn't help when there are some members in the general forums who outright refuse to accept clarifications from PC Members themselves that they are not anyone's representatives, but instead continue to insist that they must be so. Oh well ...

As to the Devs "not respecting the Council's thoughts/wishes", well that's just untrue -- the PC is not the boss of the Devs, but it its membership is always treated with utmost respect by the Devs. Provided it goes both ways !!

[Natashaelle]

Does being a VIP subscriber increase the chances of someone being selected to participate?

No. The Devs generally want a mix of VIPs and Premium for the differences in perspective.

"Someone" not a dev or other SSG employee, perchance? Maybe don't blame them for getting bad information from a player. Even those of us currently on the PC had to re-apply, so if you wish to join, now really is your chance. All I can say is, there have been quite a few times where they listened to the players and plans radically changed from the initial conception because of our input.

Have the applicants been chosen, or are they still being decided upon?

[TitusOvid]

Is this still a thing?


Cheers,
Titus.

[LrdSlvrhnd]

I'm sure they'll announce when a new PC has been chosen.

[Arkat]

Cheers,

Should be announced in the middle of this month from what Sev said in one of his interviews...maybe a little later.

[TitusOvid]

I saw this. So the new council is active?





Cheers,
Titus

A quick update:

The new players Council roster has been selected! After parsing through almost 400 applications a roster of 24 players has been chosen for the New Council. Over the coming few days we'll be notifying those who have been selected and getting them access to the Players Council section of the forums and the Players Council Discord server. If you applied and were selected you should expect to be notified by the end of the week!

Would the notification arrive through the forums and/or email?

Both!

Both!

Thanks!
