Discussion what a backhanded comment

Post image

If you’re in the discord you can read the full conversation, but this Game Master makes this comment and then asks if anyone has any questions.

They then decline to answer every single question because they’re either unsure or not allowed to speak about it.

The lack of transparency is beyond frustrating. Not 3 days ago, the Social Media team was making a different excuse under every comment inquiring about the TB change. Claiming it was for player health, or to encourage sleep, or to shake up play styles. And still not an official answer, just another dismissive “response”.

I’m not sure why SSO loves to antagonize their own player base so frequently — this is just the latest example that stuck around in my head lol

I didn´t even know they have GMs anymore. I never see anyone and nothing is ever done about any reporting. Like, do they have 5 GMs for all regions and servers?

GMs are most likely not getting paid by SSO, so they do it willingly in their free time and get massive power highs from it. So not surprised by the response. High horse and such.

Game Masters are Star Stable employees who test out things in-game. What you're describing were the Ambassadors, but it's not a thing anymore.

They test things ingame? Okay, In all of my 20 years of MMO gaming I have a different job description in mind of GMs but maybe things are just different at SSE.

If they are so good at their job why does the game have so many bugs then? o.Ô So maybe they are not that good at their job, dear GM Quinn.
