stop crying. when more beta testers are needed, more will come. i'm still on a sort of hiatus (i said i would be back last sunday, but something came up) but i'm by no means off the list. whats the point?

Wow, sit down boy.

he's a perfect example of the 'holier than thou' crowd. Notice how he assumes the rest of lack any beta testing and bug reporting experience of any kind.. Oh well tho.

Really was just an idea... No need for people to get up in arms over it, lol.

So, is the developer, one of the makers of the game who has voiced similar opinions also "holier than thou"? The point is, the majority of people out there haven't used mantis, and arguing otherwise is pretty much worthless. Getting rid of the people who understand things is a bad idea, don't claim it's because people are bullies or anything like that.

[AE] 5316 *TKZ* · 06-01-2007, 06:50 PM

a developer obviously isn't a beta tester. Jeez people, let this thread die already... it was an IDEA! I D E A, to get more of the community involved w/ the process. No reason to get all cranky about it... god.

i STILL want to know why you would remove the current beta testers instead of just adding new ones

DarkeN_HellspawN · 06-01-2007, 07:59 PM

then I will be doing GREAT!!!!!!!! Since TFC players are wait8ing for something new and have been for awhile now as I have said all along. If TF2 comes out first the old TFC community will jump on that ship first and then you will have to wiat for the stragglers to come to FF. FF NEEDS to come out first and I cannot stress that enough you are wanting all of the TFC ommunity to follow.

because they said they don't need more testers, that they were at the optimal number of people needed to test... or something like that. So if you can't add MORE, then rotate em out.

Suite307 · 06-01-2007, 08:12 PM

Testers or not i don't give a crap, i just want to play the damn thing.

TheWetMule · 06-01-2007, 08:48 PM

No offense like, but the people who are like, GOGO ROTATE LOLZZZZZZZZZZ just sound like you're jealous of the beta testers and want some action y'self, unluckily you didn't get picked there's not alot you can do :/

Also, since when has many new eyes been as good as a few experienced eyes :P? I still think this is a bad idea

Well, I'm like the only one who liked the idea... (since it was I who came up w/ it... and like, Are you fucking retarded? Of course I'm jealous. Who wouldn't wanna be playing right this very minute.

Sorry, but it doesn't specifically say a C++ coder. Don't take this wrong, just trying to enlighten you.

Circuitous · 06-01-2007, 11:20 PM

Doubt he needed enlightening, but okay.

Uh... what was I gonna say... slash do...

Uh. Oh, right. Yeah. Don't see a point in rotating out beta testers and adding in new ones when we could just add new ones.

I mean... the ones that get rotated out will just bitch. Plus it's more work to take them off the list/remove SVN access/brainwash them not to get into the information/leak anything...

I think we've tread this path before.

I think Mervaka needs a massage, though.

I'm really paranoid of an FF leak after what happened to SF2.0

wasn't that because of a disgruntled dev team and or community members who didn't like the direction 2.0 was taking tho?

and it was a shit one at that. i'll get cranky all i like thanks. calling me "holier than thou" doesnt really brush either, because for the first month or two i was able to keep away the fact that there was even a beta test going on..

less whining from you would be fantastic

TheWetMule · 06-02-2007, 05:01 PM

Less whining and shit ideas from you would be even better.

P.S I like picking fights for no reason if you haven't noticed. Boredom does do wonders.
