An unconfirmed rumor but that I really have no reasons to doubt about. It comes as a comment to the drama of the last days that is worth archiving in its entirety.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><b>J.<\/b>:<br \/>\nSomewhere, Aracnakat (or Katrice or whatever) is giggling to herself.<\/p>\n<p><b>Faust<\/b>:<br \/>\nShe doesn&#8217;t know about it&#8230; or she doesn&#8217;t care. I&#8217;ve been grouping with her and her Hubby every night this week and there&#8217;s been no mention of it. Speaking of great mysteries, there isn&#8217;t one there either. Her husband got a job requiring relocation, she went with him.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, back at the ranch&#8230; I&#8217;ll give you an alternate viewpoint on the whole thing: I&#8217;ve been playing online games for nye on an eon now (yadda yadda yadda) and I have yet to see a game where somebody who knows somebody didn&#8217;t get juiced by the Dev&#8217;s\/GM&#8217;s in one way or another. Maybe it&#8217;s Beta Accounts, Little Upgrades, a little hint here or there, or tickets to the E3 party. Maybe its a little bit of inside info which points people toward an unreleased objective. Or even just paying a little more attention to their observations about gameplay and using those opinions to allocate resources. All &#8220;special treatment&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>And ya know what? It&#8217;s OK. It&#8217;s perfectly fine. It is not a big deal. These people are more than paying customers.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I must admit that the reason it&#8217;s OK is that situations like this one blow way out of proportion and keep it all in check&#8230; so I guess that&#8217;s OK too. Anyone getting overly excited about it is a lamer.<\/p>\n<p>uh&#8230; you know, like making a front page article about it (?)<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Does someone remember Katricia?
