Somalian Pirates

Rapid blogging… Jeez…. I could almost be confused for regaining a little enthusiasm. And the confusion would be correct.

As already posted before, I think SI MUST be more active on the forums in responding to suggestions, issues & moans- often from irrational humans that are barely registering on the ‘sentient being’ scale.

Additionally, more Official GW Emails outlining things to look forward to, or explanations, perhaps…. Many people don’t look at the forums- I know in Beta a lot that approaches this is being trialed, I hope it comes out to live and, if so, in an accessible format.

All this aside, something happened. It was deep, meaningful and all very satisfying. I think I have become, over the last 3-4 months, tired of the same arguments, from the same protagonists, and as frustrated with the lack of official response or action from SI… about pretty much most things, until now.

A pro-active decision was made by SI, and action taken. It was like that first appointment that you had with the dominatrix  … oh, errr,  that might just be me.. but in this instance was all about the Somalian Pirates of Valderrama (as per this thread…. http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/249828-The-somalian-cheaters) and some managers that had purposely exploited a bug.

Aside from the teams caught in the crossfire of Somalians being removed due to their over-production of quality players (often 4*+), and the numerous managers that were satisfied with the main protagonist/s getting screwed with their pants on, it was good to see action. Okay, it was slow coming, but action all the same.

Regardless of your standpoint on the Somali YA's, to see a Raft of Super Admins arrive and be executive in decision-making was a joy to behold.


Add in the Emails sent to entice managers back (time will tell if they stay, obviously, but trying to be positive), and things are looking up.

So a plethora of hats off to SI... hmmm.. two positive posts in a row, I'm in danger of becoming a Fanboi    :o
