Hey, that's not fair. We have never told people there is no problem or to shut up. We care a lot about how people feel about the timer and have changed it multiple times to accommodate feedback.

Hell, what I expect for this "rant"...is to be banned or at least "placed on probation" (wtfe that means...maybe I will get into the beta faster that way...seems that bad behavior is rewarded here) We've banned or probated less than 10 people in the history of the forum, and it was always due to breaching actual rules (posting porn, spamming dozens of empty posts, etc). We would never probate someone for posting their opinion if they do it without flaming. We do care a lot about what our users think!

That will END all this "timer drama". I'm sorry I didn't reply to the PM you sent (we get thousands but do read/heed them all).

Removing it could be the solution, anyway I'm sure it has been a great hype/advertising tool, keep that in mind	Posted by RaffoBaffo#3431 on Aug 25, 2011, 11:55:03 AM Quote this Post
I wish, the zero posts with one visit are just depressing.	Posted by Brotolemaeus#2524 on Aug 25, 2011, 11:56:45 AM Quote this Post

yes remove the timer pls	Posted by Rambada#4869 on Aug 25, 2011, 12:15:41 PM Quote this Post
I think that something needs to be done as well, but removing the timer now when some randoms have already been picked will only produce more flame wars and spam threads where people will feel neglected even further. I really believe there should be some other fix than removing the timer altogether.	Posted by Baaja#5501 on Aug 25, 2011, 12:24:09 PM Quote this Post
I know im new, can't help that, but what is the point in giving the one time visits keys, they are the most likely people to not give feedback on the game at all. "But your sister let me do that"	Posted by Global#3920 on Aug 25, 2011, 12:30:38 PM Quote this Post
