Well TBH, it is not like this discussion has not occurred before, even recently....and that thread the devs came in and made their position pretty clear is all.

Seeing things like changing reform essence to a PBAOE heal gets my blood boiling as it almost seems like people just say things they think will be good not considering the people that have played the AT for years and would never consider that kind of change seriously because it contrast so vastly with how the power is currently used. That kind of thing belongs with suggestions for a "brand new AT" not my PB.

Arbiter Hawk to his credit made it clear no changes that fundamentally change the AT or overly piss off people that have played the AT under a style that fits what it is for years. The changes made in October were EXCELLENT. He said there was more coming down the pike, but they will need to fit the AT. That is all I have said in the past and now, changes that fit the current AT, not changes that make it some other current AT.

Along those lines I am more than sure if someone mentions something not mentioned in the other threads where the devs made specific direct comments, they will see them and give them some thought consideration. I just think it is "not" a good idea to just throw crap against the wall and see what sticks, which is what I consider AT changing suggestions at this point since the devs have made their position clear.

Yup.

And you refer to what?

This is kind of a modern day problem that has occurred in the past I am sure. There is a literal definition of the word EPIC which I listed and the devs that made the "story" that is directly tied to the AT, ALONG with them saying ALL ALONG that "EPIC MEANS STORY", it is not their fault "some" players want to use the "street" term themselves and hold the devs to that meaning.

That is an unreasonable position and is a serious problem in communication with people these days. It happens here in the forums all the time. Someone will say something with a specific meaning then the other will come along with the street meaning.

I view it as a form of intellectual dishonesty to some degree since it is "clear" what the word epic meant from the start. Players have and should continue to push for positive changes in the AT, but to try to redfine "EPIC" and hold the devs to that is asinine.

It is one of the reasons I still use AE when I am looking for challenging and more interesting mobs to fight. I just make them. Now if the devs would just get off their bums and add the most recent powersets faster all will be well.

Gosh man this is me to a tee. I have come to the realization that as the world progresses it regresses as well. I am sorry but I said it when the movie Idiocracy came out, that while being overboard because it is a movie, there were in fact some things that seem to be leading down that road at a fair fast clip.
