    Maybe Ben could start actually posting Updates here on the Forums which should include communications from the company.

    Rather than others having to post what he says other places.

    Total appreciation to the people actually doing what Ben should be doing in the first place!!!!!


    It's not 1998 and WRG realizes that a vBulletin message board isn't the best place to engage their Mobile game user base. Sometimes news breaks on Twitter, sometimes on Twitch. Q&As are held for their largest player base on Discord and sometimes news is posted here. Discord has hundreds online at all times and thousands of unique visitors, this website is not and should not be the primary source of news for the majority of the players.

    There's a reason they've moved away from the forums and why there's a manager in place here and nowhere else. Employees don't want to wade through pages of bitter complainers who are old enough to know better. When you see Ben, Matt, Joe, Carmen, Fury talking with players on Discord or community streams, they're having a good time and are almost always treated with respect. In contrast, employees have joked about the fact that they avoid the forums. (Bonus points if you can guess on which platform Ben and others have received death threats before)

    The irony here is that I'm responding to a user who's been ignored for years as part of the problem, because I saw their message quoted by someone else. If the forums want to be treated like adults, they should behave like adults. By the way, thanks to WRG Matt for stopping by the Timelines Talks discord yesterday to talk a bit about the upcoming patch 9.3.
    Ben also likes Taco Bell.

    Gauntlet behold would be great, but the problem of acquiring specific exclusives will still grow worse over time. Glad they're seemingly willing to listen. Hope it's purchasable in the honor hall!

    I heard that eventually citations will be purchasable with replication rations. Can you comment on this?

    Where did you hear this? Would be a great idea - can't see it but maybe I'm just being cynical lol.

    Ben made a joke in stream chat about turning rations into cites. It wasn't serious.

    THEY created this Forum. Communications definitely should be done here. Regardless of how diligently and adamantly some people feel they have to defend their faulty decisions.

    They supposedly now have someone who is specifically employed to deliver information. They need to pass game updates to that person so she can do the job she is here for. There is a specific sub-forum designated to update the players on the game.


    They should more fully utilize it.


    Sorry if that fact upsets anyone who feels they can do no wrong and make no mistakes.

    You are one of the people who has made the forums an infrequent place to visit (you are not the worst by any means, but you are definitely part of the problem). The toxicity here is useful to no one. This is now just a place to keep the toxicity from spreading into other areas.

    Wondered why I had you clicked. I see now why.

    Maybe take a little time off from unwarranted personal attacks to look at the last few weeks. I had a medical issue I did not know about that was causing me trouble. But, Thanx for kicking someone while they are down.

    Now, I will take Nancy's advice and do something I hardly ever do.

    You always have some kind of medical issue going on that you like to tell us about, as proven by the fact that it has nothing to do with what the person said yet you had to throw it in there

    Come back at me when you are not hiding.


    Sorry I **tsk tsk** came back. Congratulations. You **tsk tsk** win.

    I don’t think Nancy needs to tell people when she is off from work. It is her boss(es)’ responsibility to have issues addressed and the forum monitored in her absence.

    Her bosses are the likely reason why many players are dissatisfied with Timelines. I’m not sure if they care (or if they ever really cared).
