+1 to that.

She's already doing it better (but she has experience ). Seriously, though, look at the my quotes on the original post. Regina has made one tiny comment that has practically no heart. And then look at Gaile's 2 comments (both made before Regina's). Even though they're from a support perspective, it still seems like she cares. I miss that.

I'm getting so tired of the bad CR lately.

I doubt that this will reduce the number of frantic kids spamming GToB for several weeks.

In all honesty, I think Regina cares too, but I think she's afraid of the bullies and wicked/sarcastic personalities on these boards. But she should know that what doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger. How do you think Gaile got the experience? (btw that's another rhetorical question )

Here are two valid reasons for removing HB:
1) It's a gigantic shithole (as are many other things in Guild Wars, but one less of them is good in my book)
2) Very few people actually care about it as a competitive format

These apply to TA as well, just delete 'gigantic'.
In my view, most of this game is a gigantic shithole now. I enjoyed taking a break from HA to do some HB. It might be broken sure, but I enjoyed only having to rely on myself to do everything. Although Crossing was terrible (I have no idea why AI was so bad on that map, apparently it's the bridges but woamg it was bad) I enjoyed most of the maps, and it was especially fun to kill someones hero while they were walking somewhere without the other player being good enough to react to it. It sounds weird when I type it out like that but I just enjoyed the attention it required on some levels.

Ya I know people think it's fairly skill less but It was probably the only Arena I felt that had a decent level of involvement.

Can you confirm wether the PvP Skin update will be included in the build later this week?

Thank you.

Thank freaking god. While I don't mind my countless stacks of ectos hitting 6k per ecto, I DID mind my countless stacks of ZKeys being shoved down to 3.5k per ZKey. -_-

Whether we agreed or disagreed with Gaile, even to this day, she gives responses that have thought behind it and aren't one line answers or copy pasted from a talk page or whatnot. Remember when it was an event when she would appear in LA ID1 to answer questions in game?

But on topic: Looking forward to SD and to how it's going to play out and good riddance to two broken/never fixed formats.

Don't get so excited over SD just yet, folks. HB and TA being removed doesn't mean SD will be added the same time.

Still, I'm glad to see that this is finally happening. What, then, are they planning to do with the masses and masses of people that abused the format? Little to nothing, I would assume, but there's no telling what ANet could choose to do, it seems.

I see a lot of people happy for the removal of TA/HB. What you don't see is the whining and bitching that follows. At least not yet. I expect to see many good for nothing individuals cry about Sealed Deck and how broken it is or how poorly implemented it is etc... The list of complaints will be immense and full of dumb arguments. It just hasn't happened yet.

Cheers!

It's mainly in how it is said. She understands the bedrock principle of customer service - sometimes you have to apologize for things that aren't your fault, or when you personally have done nothing wrong. If customers' expectations aren't getting met, either the customers' expectations are unrealistic or someone at your company has made an error.

When lots of people are giving you the same negative feedback, the latter is invariably true.

If you're too interested in being "right" and sticking up for the company, it always comes off as though you don't care.
