Hey @rbchaffe

Thank you for reporting this spelling mistake. I’ve let the dev team know about it so they can get that fixed.

Thanks again

Hey @OBSERVER

Thank you for reporting these errors in our Italian translations. I have reported this to the dev team so we can get those corrected.

Thanks again

We have received repeated feedback over the years that we should include more diverse characters in the game (including representation of people of colour), and that we should also have more female characters who aren’t as sexualised, so yes, seriously.

Ok, totally understood now, thanks for taking the time to explain to me AGAIN (I know you’re fed up with repeating yourselves).

I know Icy just commented my posts are too long sometimes but I guess I want to summarise, so feel free to skip the next bit, you’re not missing much:

For me, at the time, I felt like spacing out the Vault Events more to avoid one in early January was a good idea as we had Kingdom Pass, Legends Reborn, a game update and a Vault weekend scheduled AND half the team was on holidays that week, the team were on the same page about that so we just moved it. It just felt like the perfect concoction of - if something is going to go wrong it will blow up this particular week because that’s Murphy’s Law - so let’s just not create the perfect storm and move something. The Vault event was the easiest thing we could move.

The gap between Vault Events seemed like the lesser evil but in retrospect we should’ve kno...

Just an FYI as you may have missed it - I had to moderate that thread as there was a sexist and inappropriate “adult” comment. I replied to nip it in the bud in case anyone thought of continuing down that path so I wouldn’t have to come in there like the police warning everyone later.

Sometimes re-steering the conversation is all it takes to stop a situation from escalating and I would much prefer to do that than to come down with a ban hammer later if the whole situation was so easily avoidable.

We shall see if it works.

Also worth noting is that we’ve already replied to this feedback but not for awhile - I have the confirmation that as a company we do care about this, so it’s a rare instance I can share a solid stance on feedback. We normally can’t promise things for game features until we get the go ahead to announce it, which takes a long time.

This was super easy to reply to.

The forum is 3rd party software and has always had auto bans as part of it, it sometimes bans users before they even post for the first time.

We check it almost every day to make sure nothing has gone wrong.

Most forums have autobans as part of their default code/setup - and they often ban before users even post.

This is totally valid feedback and I’ve passed it on.

Representation matters.

Whether it’s Gnomes, Daemons, or Wildfolk we’re trying to be more aware of this.

It could be unrelated but what are your transparency settings?
I will pass this info to the devs to help with their investigation of the issue.

I’ve updated the bug report for the team and one of them will be looking into this soon.

@Fourdottwoone when did you last notice not having the option at all?
QA reported this bug for Explore and Challenges but the fix was pushed out in April 2022.

I’m guessing you’ve noticed it much more recently than that? (but I have to be sure so asking anyway).

Probably unrelated but Four, do you play with a controller or have you noticed this happen when there’s a mana storm active?

So currently we’re scheduled to having 1 per month (1 in Feb, 1 in March & 1 in April) where normally there would have only been 1 per every 6 weeks, so one of those months wouldn’t have had one.

Then from there we’re going back to our regular 6 week schedule (pending the possibility of slight variations due to clashing events).

If you’re still not happy with this, please explain why in more detail so I can properly represent your concerns, otherwise, while I know people still aren’t happy about the whole situation, I think we’ve done what we can to address this at this stage and we do need to close this out at some point and just taking feedback under advisement for any future incidents like this.

^ Text is hard to convey tone, so just a disclaimer, I do genuinely care about conveying your criticism and concerns, but I do need more to continue this discussion at this point, I’m not trying to say this in a mean way, I’m just trying to communicate where we’re at ...

Not going to lie, I’m low key concerned that AI is being used to create forum accounts and post to threads like real users based on some of the recent activity we’ve seen on the forums

We’re blurring the line between oh this is probably just a new user trying to be helpful - but were for somereason 5 years deep in the thread list, and this is just straight up a bot trying to appear legitimate before posting an ad or something.
