Actually it demonstrates butter knife sharp wit and a failure to conceive that alts are created for less than nefarious purposes. Like mule accounts and for making extra chars when your roster is full. Both of which you'd likely write the password down somewhere.

Here's the straight scoop that you can't seem to grasp because it requires some careful critical thinking, which appears difficult when someone keeps getting stuck in their own emotional lines of thought. When talking about probabilities of something a single instance doesn't prove or disprove anything. The word "likely" means a probability of something is more likely than not.

Proving or disproving a single account is or is not an alt account is not the point. I know that this is a difficult concept for you to grasp but when a large amount of likely things are put together then it does and can PROVE a fact. It is likely that any single account in the list of 714 accounts is not an alt account. Any individual account with an older creation date, with a donation associated with it or with other posts associated with it makes it less likely to be an alt-account, which means more likely that it is not an alt-account. Taken as a group, the 714 accounts proves that more than a handful of people have expressed a personal opinion that the Labyrinth should be improved or the ascendancy points moved elsewhere.

It's really a very simple concept. I don't think it is so complicated. Just try to think about it in objective terms and it should eventually make more sense to you, if not today then maybe tomorrow or next week?

I sincerely hope nobody here assumes that GGG wouldn't be able to find out which accounts are real and which are not, if they ever find themselves in need of that particular piece of info. What the rest of us think about the actual headcount of complainers is mostly irrelevant.

I'm pretty sure they have better ways than forum posts to assess the influence of certain mechanics on players. This feedback is usually better for quality and not quantity, because relating the number of complainers to the overall playerbase is pretty hard. However if there are things that can be improved it hardly goes unnoticed however the quality of the complaints has dropped steadily and I doubt that they can get anything out of this thread that they don't already know.

They aren't going to waste their time. This isn't a beauty contest. They make a game, play it or don't. This isn't a democracy or for that matter an arg anymore.

After a long break from the forum, I came back to check if the rumors are true. Is there an alternative to lab and trials areas in the works? A little bird keeps telling me!

If this little bird involves someone's middle finger then you may be misinterpreting what you're being told?

More of a fist than a finger.

You took a long break from the forum? When was that? Are you hallucinating?
