In a way, we tried (in the CC forum) to tell Tadaaah, Clementine, Relic and Bolt that their jobs were pointless, keep résumé handy, etc... because some of us have been around so long that we know CMs are pawns here. A month before the ax came down, I posted we were due for a CM turnover. Clementine immediately came out from hiding "behind the scenes" to post that we were stuck with them.
The forums have never been about GREE giving info: they want players to figure things out. Issues, like bug fixes and event changes, are when we needed communication, but that has always been insufficient or too vague.
I cannot imagine how frustrating it was for them, but I'm sure the pay and perks made up for it, so they stayed. Sometimes I thought the devs gave the CMs wrong info to post here just to mess with them (& us.) When they ended Beyond the Dead, i could tell Clementine was not happy with her job. Her posts seemed bitter. Bolt & Relic seemed to be trying to be helpful; they were still new. Bolt was really trying. Check out Bolt's last post.
Relic was too sensitive and bias, imho, for these forums. I lost all respect for her when she told me in PM not to tell anybody she was a chick. As if we'd respect her more if we thought she was a dude? Heh, whatever. Game-playing as another gender is one thing, but this was her job. I hope she finds a better job where she doesn't feel the need to pretend she's a dude to be respected.
(BTW, I'm not a feminist by any means; I just sound like one in this post.)

Lol everyone knew relic was a chick
haha, I figured so much before she told me but found it weird she didn't want me to tell. To each, their own.

What all this blabber has to do with the theme of this thread. I fully respect that low tier teams do not care about rivalry between top factions and rather would complain about boss health been too high for rb or ltq requires too much energy. May be they can ask mods make sub forum for them so they whine and commiserate together.
For those who are playing in major league a death of the flock is a big deal. So if you do not care do not post. You have 300 threads started by PJ where you can participate and show your depth and wisdom.
It’s also funny that the same people who are whining and trolling here now are been long enough on this forum to witness Ferr’s public virtual MW suicide, that he stretch for 3 weeks while opening new thread every time he would delete silo or armory or oil rig.
The bottom line is birds are dead and SUP is victorious. Thank you very much for your warm cheers.
Well yeah, it was obvious after GREE announced the VC office was closing. None of the CMs posted anything until it was "official" and finally, after 10 days of BtD customers flooding the other forums with questions about BtD's status, Clementine finally spoke up. She could have said something like, "let me find out..." or something, anything, instead of leaving them hanging with no response for 10 days.
lol, I agree they did as little as possible, but I think it was out of spite, not their training program.

I promise you the CMs did everything they could, but they had no position of power. Every issue that was raised they would bring to development or support. But, that was as far as they could go. They couldn't fix issues, they couldn't even get stuff prioritised. Yes they attended internal meetings about new features and releases. But they were never given timelines and the info they were given was no more than the basic details that CS got.. They didn't have access to support tools, or any sql skills. Their hands were tied.
What do you mean SUp is victorious? Sup has always been the top spender in the game, and always has gotten the first spot? I enjoyed reading Ferrs posts as it gave us an insight into the rivalry between him and PUn at the time, it gave us an insight to the best player or biggest spender in the game at that time. I don't think there has been as interesting read pertaining to this game then those posts of his retirement. It was also fun reading the bashing between the birds and pirates.
Funny that the only ones that care about this are the SUPpets.
