You could sort of tell that anyway, they never both say stuff at the same time... it's as if Gaile has to move to a different computer to talk as The Frog, or uses different commands "%message" to chat.

If anything it should be for showing up in Lions Arch after the end of a PvP event that PvP characters and the guest players that are previewing the game have no access to. But it's not going to happen anyway - she's been there from the beginning.

ummm........maybe that was because the event was OVER and she was talking to account holders not the visitors?

and i am sure you have at least 1 pve character to use not to mention most people were shunted to non full districts anyway?

she should interrupt the event and get blamed for having to choose between a few more minutes of faction farming and hearing what she was saying?

g-dawg is a developer the frog is from HR. No I cant prove it but i DO KNOW

also the new assassin class will do a main hand attack then an off hand attack and will be based off of doing combo's the off hand can't be done untill the main hand has been done so on. BTW I go have friends at henry cogwells collage one of their teacher is a graphics design guy for anet he was playtesting the sin it rules.

hee hee thats funny.

im pretty sure any of the anet people can type in the green or yellow color if they choose.

There was a thread a little while back where someone posted SS of random arena where someone from Anet using yellow text warned a very foul mouthed individual. People thought it was The Frog, because thats kind of his trademark color, but it wasnt.

OMG. that was funny.

The Frog is not amused""

I laughed at that one, like, "The Frog is morally opposed to IWAY"

And yes, the yellow is not only the Frog. when he speaks, he usually says "Frog" in what he says.

It could be that the Frog really was late and Gaile was just trying to cover for him...

That was actually before the Frog was around... Provided we're thinking of the same incident. At any rate, Anet employees were using the yellow chat from time to time before the Frog came in to existence.

new quote from Gaile

Actually, you're barking up the wrong tree. Or croaking in the wrong swamp. Or something. Chat is complicated and the commands used can overlap. When that happens, if you were a fly on the wall you might see some mighty whispering going on. In the end, though, no one speaks for The Frog except The Frog. There is only One. *shrug*

It just seems that the Community Relations manager would try to Relate to the Community of the specific event that was going on. I was expecting a visit in the Temple of Balthazar, actually, or maybe even Heroe's Ascent. I don't actually want to see her go (sarcasm, anyone? don't make me get out the sarcasm detector picture) - she's a facet of the GW team - but I seriously can't find anything to relate to her with and she isn't the same medium for new information that she once was. Even more vague than during the betas, if that's possible. I dunno, maybe we stand a better chance to see Isiah in the Ascent?

Perhaps Gg has schizoprenia(sp??), one personality the frog and the other gg, or maybe instead of a "guild" tab on the chat thing she has a "frog" tab and she just talks in there.

Actually, as I tried to explain but apparently failed to do in another forum (which I know you saw but apparently didn't understand ) there are a lot of complications with chat commands and it's easy for those who can use them to do the wrong thing. Overlapping or command misusing by more than one party isn't unusual. In other words, I wouldn't be leaping to any conclusions here.

Or leap, as you choose.

But on the Road to Mistaken Valley, don't take the wrong turn and end up in Erroneous Junction.

Thank you for understanding. I hardly need defending, but given that someone seems to be determined to be nasty, I am grateful that you so clearly stated the several good reasons I was in LA after the event.

It looks more like a bug in the chat more than human error.

I highly doubt, as an Arena Net employee, you'd have to put in a % something or rather to type in yellow text or make your name and text green.

Now the real question is, is the frog another player standing in the district or external.

I understand what you are saying.

In other words, She actually is saying, due to the difficult chat commands, she accedently used the wrong command and it turned yellow. Gaile is NOT The Frog.

We understand Gaile. Still, we just might get a few laughs about it.

Gaile cleared at court. Gaile is innocent! yay! we can have our dev back. Our pretty little ranger dev back.

The Frog might have been late due to high traffic area's in Tyrea...

I think I might sue the author of this forum, because he insulted a dev.

All good fun

Anet devs can (I presume?) take control of the NPC's in the game, including the frog. Not too sure on that, but I remember seeing stuff about the beta event stuff featuring Gwen turning up in places and saying things hehe.

The devs also have access to free roaming camera mode (see the memories of wintersday video etc,) so probably lots of other things any one of them can control.
