Anyways, maybe the high health gain, if the skill works now, will teach the PvE scrubs how to deal decent damage, or to spike. |

I, for one, am not the least amused by this crap. I didn't buy the game and all of it's expansions just to have some mundane employees idea of fun rammed down my throat for their personal enjoyment. That's a waste of about $200.
This needs to be on a voluntary basis, like eating or drinking something. I didn't buy this game so that if "I" hacked I coould be banned, yet "THEY" can hack the visual code and it's OK.
I am not happy about this and do not appreciate it. It's childish and is interfering with my game playing experience. My money invested.
They need to fix this now!

I like it - it's something I never would have expected.
Sure, it'll get annoying pretty fast but it's only for one day
so enjoy it or endure it - whichever - cause it's only 24 hours anyway.

By the way, we are also customers, and when companies begin to abuse their customers just because they can it doesn't auger well. Maybe it's time for a quick glance in the April Fool's mirror, Areanet to make sure you like what you see. It is a time of transition, for everyone.

This should be on a voluntary basis only!!!! It would be different if it were a free browser game. But, we paid to be able to log on and have an enjoyable experience. This is NOT an enjoyable experience.
And, you are so right when it comes to 1. disrupting the game like they have and 2. whne considering whether or not to invest another $200 or more into another version and its expacs.
I am more than highly agitated at the moment. I don't mess with peoples money and expect the same from them, ESPECIALLY involving some one that i give my money to in exchange for expected service!!!

I didn't pay to have my time interrupted in such a fashion or to have my normally enjoyable time ruined by a childish, inappropriate, and rule-breaking fashion!!
Had one of us "hacked" the game and made something like this happen, we woulda been perma-banned. Yet, they wish to intrude upon an otherwise enjoyable [albeit paid for] experience by they themselves hacking the visual code....all for their personal enjoyment at our expense.
I'd say that in itself is more than enough reason to "whine".
Had it of been for 2 minutes or some such, I probably would have dismissed it. However, having a life and a job, I am limited in the time to enjoy the game. So to interfere with that is uncalled for.

I think it's hilarious. One day of being a stickman should not destroy your 'gaming experience', and if it does, you really need to get a life!

And, I am sure I am not the only one that feels the way I do. Hence, it should have been for an extremely limited time [2-5 minutes] or on a voluntary basis. The thing is, I DO have a life. So my time to enjoy the game is limited. To encroach upon that is unwarranted and unwanted. I did pay for an expected service. Not to see them "hack" and then tell us we cannot. Not for them to ruin the limited time I have to enjoy the game.
Yes, 1 full day is too much and goes too far.

It is there game. And as far as I know hacking visual coding is allowed. Its just on your screen and it doesn't change gameplay just the way it looks.

Some of you take this too seriously. "ZOMFG I CANT STARE AT MY FOW ARMOR ANYMORE AND MY CHAR ISNT HAWT!!1!!!11". AFAIK you still can cast spells, hit stuff with swords, hammers, scythes and daggers... still can heal...
Laugh at the army of stickmen!! x] I'm gonna do that.
