Are you telling me, the LEAD developer for one of Vanguard's Major Spheres didn't know there was a patch being pushed yesterday?!?

*boggle*

I can't blame this on Silius (no offense Sillius, but you are not my favorite person, as many folks from the Hilsbury /craft channel will attest), but it seems to be the "patch team" (or whatever equivalent SoE is using) needs some serious work on their communication skills. Aside from the abominable timing for the patch for anyone on the East Coast (why couldn't it wait for the morning of the 6th?), when a Lead Developer says he didn't know a patch was going in, that just rings my alarm bells.

Now, onto the derailment. Silius and others, if you have a problem with what Alannah was saying, you need to seriously take a step back, and look yourselves in the mirror. That was nothing but basic Statistics, taken from any college level course. For those that just dismissed the standard deviation figures, I highly recommend reading up a little more on what it is, signifies, and how it can be used to intepret data sets. That was nothing but constructive criticism, and if you took it as more than that, then you should be ashamed of yourselves. This is a community forum, dedicated to the improvement of crafting. While many ideas are found to be unreasonable after scrutiny from the common sense test, the overall goal remains the same: Improve the Crafting Sphere to be the best it can. Casually dismissing someone elses data analysis simply because you don't agree makes you look like astronomers that insisted the world was flat.

Alannah and others have posted plenty of links all ready; but consider this. If casino's or state lotteries operated with the standard deviations from Silius' test runs, they would be shut down as soon as what was happening became obvious.

I don’t see anyone having a problem with what Alannah or anyone has said. Outside of any insults that are being thrown around everyone is having a simple debate. Everyone here is pleading a case and all I said was you cannot discount my data much like you don’t want me discounting yours. There is nothing more I can do currently as I have exhausted a lot of time and have other things that need my attention.

Like I said I am not saying this issue is done I am simply shelving it right now as I am not seeing the problem from my end and there is more game then just crafting's loot tables. If I did not care about the data being posted I would not have spent the time or tried to help.

P.S. Why am I not your favorite person again?

P.S.S. If I am not your favorite person am I on the list of most hated people?

P.S.S.S. If I am not on that list is there anything I can do to be added?
