Don't like the thread? Don't read it. Scram. It's not about or for you anyway.

You're a nobody like every other forum user and hold no authority over what stays and goes. The fact that it's still alive should tell you that GGG wants us to have our voice.

Begone, trollish one.

Well the 4th lab was already there when the Ascendancy launched. It just wasn't activated yet. Had nothing to do with success or failure of something.

The lab came out around a year ago. They are just now fixing cyclone which came out several years ago. You also have to remember that GGG constantly put themselves into harsh time constraints when it comes to releasing new content. So odds are, if they wanted to do something with the lab, it probably wouldn't be for awhile.

Can also check the lab enchants, the fact that they are still are adding tons of value to items means the supply is lower but demand is still there. If we are the 1% then after a week or so, pages upon pages of enchants should exist where they would drop in price to really low levels.

Then take the fact that many people are paying to be carried through it. These people either don't like the lab, or can't do it. Whichever the reason, paying someone to do it for you pretty much defeats the purpose of the content. That must be popular as well since players are making profit off lab carries.

GGG are very good at marketing and hyping up there content. With the failure of D3, this is the go to ARPG now. While I think PoE is a great game, I do believe a ton of concepts and not quite pushed to their potential. The lab is one of them imo.

We aren't flying over to the GGG offices with pitchforks, we are discussing a piece of content on a forum thread. Maybe they care, maybe they don't. Maybe they will do something, maybe they won't. There is a difference between fixed and improved, we are discussing ways to improve the lab. Is it so wrong to want to see a game you enjoy improved?

GGG had FFA loot which was unpopular as hell for years and the game was still popular. One horrible feature that can be bought around isn't going to kill the game. Doesn't mean it's good or popular either.

One thing everyone seems to kind of agree on (to some extent or another) on is the carries for the Lab need to end.

The only thing here that needs to end is this topic. It's getting to an unhealthy stage now for some of you. Let it go.

Let it go dude. Everyone else is having fun posting, even the flaming is pretty tame now. Let us have our fun. Its ironic that the people who are happy with the game are mad and the people who don't play are having fun here.

Why so threatened bro?

You continue to be mean and insulting, what is your problem, man? Relax, chill out, run a lab.

I think he feels that he is impersonating a person who has inside information. No one in this thread has shown they have a clue what GGG is thinking. I certainly don't nor do I really think it matters, they make the game they want. I play it or I don't.

Here's my feedback: LAB FUCKING SUCKS!

Ascendancy points should be awarded at certain levels instead of being gated.
Maybe levels 20, 40, 60, 80?

Keep Lab in game for loot/enchants for those who enjoy it.

You can gather that from his one extremely well thought out post? Ok...

No, he has an old account. With very few achievements and only 1 challenge league with any progress it sure doesn't look like he's actually played very much...

No more important than anyone else here. Also pretty convenient all his other posts from 2012-2013 were edited today. One more name for the list, so surely he has an elevated importance to you.

Much thoughtful. Such wow.

Nothing new, still making a mountain out of a molehill...
