Had a spare moment

logged on, went to look at new Christmas rewards. Le sigh

Yeah, I mean why aren't they up yet?? It's not like he just had a baby 3 or 4 days ago...I mean it's insane that he hasn't updated these fake pixels yet that will be up for an entire year. What kind of a person would take care of their wife/baby before tending to a bunch of grown ass man babies?? RIDICULOUS

LMAO

Lol

Why can’t another staff member do it?

There are no other staff members with the correct skills/access. But I am guessing you probably figured that out already and just wish to stir the pot.

I've been collecting and saving my holiday coins for over 2 years now in hopes of an epic Christmas reward shop this year.

Huge bummer they havent dropped yet but I will keep patiently waiting though.

I’m personally hoping for a hoola hoop.

I do that, I’m trying to prove a point if you want to call it “stir the pot” that’s fine. I’m extremely disappointed that the Christmas vendor can’t even be turned on before Christmas. Warren wanted to attack me with the he busy and that’s fair but my point of no one else having access to do the mundane work of turning on a vender is fair too.

Agreed, its a trust issue. Last time trust was shown, it was abused. Now its even harder to earn that trust. There are lots here that can and want to help. If/When Telamon decides to extend that trust again, we wont have the bottlenecks that we have now.

If you loan your car to one friend and they trash it, how likely are you to loan that car to anyone, ever again. Friend two comes along and complains that you never loan your car out... is that more or less likely to get you to loan your car to friend two or anyone?

True story. I loaned one of my pals a car twice...each time he wrecked it.. yep... TWICE!
Thinking about letting him take my Vette for a spin when he comes to visit soon.. whaddya think?

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...

Would think it's hard to find someone to trust, willing to work for no money, be willing to deal with the complaints, have coding skills and shouldn't expect to have much life.

So what actually/officially happened to Treasureman? All I’ve heard was the rumor mill. I really liked him as staff.

This! Or why not Darkwing?

I haven't even heard rumor mill about that, wondered.

Dark wing banned Tman for using capital letters

think earlier... Alex Caember

So you’re burned 1 time and the rest of us suffer for it? I mean if the owner is busy that’s FINE but someone has to be around to make sure the wheels keep turning! If a simple holiday vendor can’t be turn on you have reached gridlock stage.

While it is frustrating to not get the things we expect, it is important to have patience. This is a free shard. There are no monthly subscriptions to pay for staff to handle the "mundane" tasks of the server. While this may create gridlock and slow downs on implementation of long time requested items, Telamon does seem to care about what he has devloped here. He has provided a free shard experience for 6+ years now. It is probably not even arguable to say its the best free shard available. <Inserting humble opinion here>It is in my experience the best overall experience.

Let's not pile on complaints when he probably gets an inbox full of them as it is. Save up those coins and when the "switch" is turned on for this years rewards, go and enjoy the spoils of your patience.

Thank You Telamon for providing the UOR sandbox to play in. I will keep my sand bucket and shovel right here.
