I seemingly remember a monstorously large thread on this forums a few months ago about how much ArenaNet sucks for taking away some favor. Let's complain now that they gave it back, because, you know that will make the community seem so much more thoughtful and intelligent!

My thoughts exactly, the sig of disenchant blows up UW farming and the 50% less damage to sf means my spider cave runs in FoW are a thing of the past.

But thanks for laughing at us and rubbing it in our faces with 30k favor Anet! You're so awesome

Don't really care about it either way, just glad my ecto are back to what they used to be.

lol I love it when people think they are smart, to be accurate Joe Crocker didn't write this song, Arthur Hamilton did in 1953, Joe Crocker remade it in 1970...along with over a 140 people in the last 50 yrs. So much for witty.

But your point is obnoxiously obvious, so to quote... well me "blow me"

Other than players with (1) a bunch of ectos in storage or (2) a stash of UW keys, why would anyone be upset about this?

More access to content is a good thing, IMO. It also keeps all the Ursans centralized in one place, which is better for the game.

30,000 extra minutes?

Maybe that's what they think they need to fix the double favor loss message.

The loss of favor was unintentional. It's what players are owed and what should not have been lost in the first place. We had a discussion today and thought that since favor was running a little low, it would be a good time to restore what you had lost.--Regina Buenaobra 00:55, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Anet acting with integrity should make everyone happy, IMHO.

To all the complainers:

LMAO!

Before you rush to bash Anet for another thing they've "done wrong", this was just in response to the overflow a few months earlier, when everyone b****ed that they didn't get all their favor. Now these same people are getting what they asked for, and are still complaining?

I mean, come on!

EDIT: See above, lots of other members agree with me.

I personally don't see anyone bitching about getting favor back. Mostly, people just think it's kind of a "Woah, didn't see that coming" moment. The only people who are upset are the "I just bought 2 stacks of UW scrolls and now they're useless."

I agree, even though I would like to see what will happen when favor runs out, all in time. First they gave us what we played for, 30k minutes favor.

When you gamble, you sometimes win and you sometimes loose. If you don't wanne loose, don't gamble. And yeah, I bought some scrolls too, so what.

lol this is pretty disappointing I was looking forward to it going down to zero O well I guess this means I need to wait another few months in order to see the end of the world threads (regarding favor of course) about how we can't just live without favor totally forgetting when we had fav or based on pvp (WHICH I MISS GREATLY).

Thank you for your informative, yet immature reply. I chose the Cocker version for it is my favorite. My point is obvious, ANET did the right thing by returning the favor that was lost and all you are doing is crying about how it hurts you.

No, I believe I used words like "us" and "our".

Never said the favor hurt anything, just more or less big friggin whoopdedoo.

Also believe I said blow me too. And your point was smart ass, so you got a smart ass response.

Indeed, it makes me happy. They got this one exactly right.

I saw them at 4.3k this morning. I don't think they nerfed it as much as they wanted to.

To be fair, if you're going to insinuate that someone isn't smart, you might want to spell "Cocker" correctly. It helps you look smart.

As much as I disagree with us really having the 30k minutes...

We as the playerbase did earn it. Their stripping it away was their error, and the reimbursement of it is rectification of that error.

i bet programmers were like "okay, we just fuxxed shadow form for farming, how about if we put back those 30k minutes of favor they lost long time ago just for the lulz?"
