    While we are here, I would like to take a moment to get awareness of Light Akaviri-Hood Disease for Khajiit more well-known.

    Years ago, fat-cheeked Khajiit like myself, struggled to keep their cute little chubby faces within their hood. While we can now wear hoods without fear of clipping, we have a long-standing issue that has yet to be resolved.

    c3cffa1326ed9d1bbf15eb4274a3bc32.png

    Sytoms include:
    -The inability to wear a badass mask without looking like an Argonian.
    -Fur loss
    -Scales
    -Changes in the color of your skin.
    -Skin FUSING WITH THE MASK OH MY GOD I CAN'T BREA-

    We'll check on this - I don't currently have the means to see if we have a bug in for it, but I'm making note of it. Thanks Tea!

    Three bless you @ZOS_JessicaFolsom . :'(

    Oh... Life is so different after you join the gamedev industry.
    Before, my reaction was to come here and just be pissed, always imagining it's a simple fix (or also think it's weird to take 1h to reboot and test a server).

    Now that I know how a big company/big game works from inside, I tend to side a lot with IT/Operations and Community Management.

    By the way Gina, Jessica & Rich, awesome response time, specially on a weekend :)

    Not just game dev, any kind of software dev, really. You go from thinking "how can it not be that simple?!" to "oh God, how did I ever think it was that simple?!"

    I mean, by all means, be frustrated. But as someone with software dev experience, you just tend to think of it from the other side of the coin where they're probably just as annoyed as you are. Hell, I am when something breaks for seemingly no reason. Especially login/authentication, because that's pretty much the entry point so you can't do anything else! So you guys definitely have my sympathies, and my gratitude that you're staying on top of it.

    I too can sympathize having worked on call tech support for banks and credit unions. A 3AM call was expected a 15 minute response time at maximum. Oh and yes you were expected to report in to work in the morning at your normally designated time the next day. Godspeed and I wish you a more restful weekend once the issues have been squashed.

    @ZOS_JessicaFolsom totally unrelated question, but i noticed that my characters have a sad face expression (lips curved down) whenever i hit log out. No personalities used. Is it a new feature?
    Skye Cloude - Sorc DPS, Master Crafter. Main, the bestest
    Lae Lenne - Templar Healer Trial grade.
    Dromede - Stamina Nightblade, she's a newb and doesn't know what she's doing
    V'oghatta - Stamplar pretending to be a tank
    Ulville Thonvella - aspiring Fire Mage, be careful around her fire sticks!
    Dromedaris - lost and not found. Named after a shoe, what else can you expect from her? A proper tank in her wildest dreams
    Swims-Naked - too pretty to grind, too silly to quest.
    Sun Flair - Dunmer Templar that can't spell for life. To bad she's too broke to afford a name change... Well, at least she's pretty...

    This is it guys. This is how ZOS fixes all the issues, all the lag. They close the game. No people, no problem!

    Are you FOR REAL?!?

    They listened to user feedback about the issue (both helpful and the smart-ass comments).
    The took the server down to, you know, troubleshoot and resolve.
    When they've fixed it, they'll put back up.

    It's no different than an authentication server on a business network.
    And lots of things would need to authenticate during a playing session.
    So why listen to people complain about the game not working while they are in it, when they can listen to people complain when they AREN'T in it.

    Unequipping the staff only stops it until you equip it again. Relogging only works until you use some skills with the staff again. So yeah, totally messed up.

    Also, multiple guildies have told me they experience it as well, so it's not an isolated glitch.

    Unless you play AD in bwb. Then you won't stand out at all. In other campaigns I see a lot fewer men in wedding dresses than I used to.
