If your on EP or AD, just go ahead and destroy those forward camps. Otherwise they still work but they're very rare so I would suggest using them sparingly.

Pretty sure the oil pots are still in the game tho.

Is that what those things are cluttering up the guild bank? I almost pulled them out and deleted them.

Know he used to be teased about Silver bolts.... glad to see some of you are back

Oh wow, @Carde! Someone please remind me what we used to rag on him about. That's going to drive me crazy all night.

I distinctly remember being too awesome, but who knows for sure.

Something about crossbows.

Maybe it had to do about a guy starting off as a Mara? Or do I have the wrong guy and I need to lay off the skooma?

Nope, that was me also. I can't complain about that one though cause the Mara group was pretty awesome for the most part.

And Mara was pretty awesome!

Hey y'all! And welcome back, SirAndy.

Grats on the new baby, Jessabella. You know, now that the game is no longer subscripton based, you can pop in occasionally without feeling you need to make good use of the time you've paid for. Tamriel is a nice place to sightsee, and you can visit without being "back."

Aye, still here never left. Great to see you again, @SirAndy !

<wave> Welcome back SirAndy. The Psijic Order's forum is still on this site. If you don't see it in the community grouping maybe Gina can add it back for you?

I'm slightly disappointed to know that our paid community managers are moderating private forum sections for select guild(s).

The Psijic forum was for the Psijic group of Beta testers, not all Psijic Beta Testers joined the Psijic guild. The reason the forum exists is because it contains the history of what we discussed and they just kept it open for those who did the beta testing. Your approval or disappointment is not necessary or required. And to answer the OP, I never left....

I'm still here, tell me about this mythical forum I've never had access to please?

I have the weird suspicion... and I may be wrong here, that the beta forums were the same ones open to all beta testers. I remember having access to a unique forum back during the stress tests, but I never saw it again after launch. It would actually vanish the minute the stress tests ended. In fact, I even posted there a couple times during the weekends.

I don't know if that's actually the forums that are being talked about here, though.

No, a separate forum section. It still exists. I've been able to clog through all those posts even today, which is awesome. If the general community knew how much of the suggestions and feedback we already gave to ZOS during the beta test stages, they wouldn't be starting with the phrase, "Why has no one ever suggested this?"

To answer the OP, I never left. I've been subbed since launch but I took a 3 month play hiatus due to health concerns. I was wondering why this was in the general forums section. Was kind of surprised when I saw it. Does this mean we aren't so secret snowflakey anymore?

I never left. Welcome back though!

I still remember Carde coming into our guild chat, full of religious fervour at the new weapon type ZOS had just announced in their trailer. And alas, in my ignorance I was caught up in the hype. I trusted you, you fiend!

As if we're not all paying customers. Hell, I wonder if some of the returning Psyjic will have ever paid a sub fee towards this game.

Did early beta testing, was part of the Pyijic Order Beta Testing and have been subbed since release. Other than a gift card I got for 3 months game time for another reason that had nothing to do with the Beta. I am still subbed now on the B2P version.

You're basically ZOS's golden child then? That fact is supposed to make it okay? LOL

I'm not up in arms about all this, but like I said... I'm slightly disappointed in ZOS.

I suppose it's possible, but it doesn't matter.

At a guess, the Psijic forums were probably set up to deal with beta feedback. At that point, after the game transitioned into an open beta, cracking those forums open would have involved more work. So they were allowed to exist, because, honestly, it's probably a low maintenance area for them.

Either way, hidden forums are a norm on every site you frequent. Without exception. That is one of them.

Exactly what I was about to post, but saying that I can understand folks being cranky over an area of what is now a free-to-all forum being available to a privileged view simply because of the luck of the draw. I'd personally vote to nix it. And that's from a psijic member (though I never did get around to getting added back in).

Also, welcome back SirAndy!

Well, thinking about it... if you think about the Psijic members as, basically interns (that is to say, unpaid employees), the forum setup makes a lot more sense. And I don't think anyone's clamoring to see the staff board either. Similar basic idea, but, I know from my own history that even mentioning the existence of staff boards on a forum you admin will make some people jealous. *shrugs*

For what it's worth, the forum section is the only thing we got for beta testing the game. No pets, no mounts, no titles, no perks. Nothing special other than getting to play the game a couple months earlier than everyone else.

That excludes the beta monkey pet which was given to everyone who participated in the weekend beta test events.

Some of us got to meet Zenimax folks. Even @ZOS_BrianWheeler , 2015 savior of PVP.
