    Hmm, seems implausible.

    Your case is honestly hard to properly gauge because you have a Developer comment in your stats and I have no clue if that's worth any points lol

    That aside, you have over 12.5k points, are under 10k posts, and have 1.4k Insightfuls, 7.5k Agrees, and 3.1k Awesomes.
    I have a bit over 6k points, have about 7.5k comments, under 600 Insightfuls, 3.8k Agrees, and 1.2k Awesomes.

    Yeah I honestly think commenting alone doesn't really earn jack lol
    lol that Developer comment is somehow a weird forum bug too - it appeared one day as if by magic, and it shouldn't exist.

    I see... Honestly seemed legit so I never suspected a thing lol

    well... it's clear you're not getting much with a thread like this...


    i'd snigger but it's probably not polite.

    The point of this thread was to mention to Zenimax we have a necro infestation and I proposed a way to fix it, that's all. Everything beyond that is discussion on the matter. Sure, not everyone cares and some may even condone it themselves, but this thread is not a waste because it served its purpose. Either way, not making this thread would guarantee nothing changes, and if nothing does indeed change then at least I tried.

    infestation....

    infestation....

    i'm not sure that word means what you think it means

    yeah i know there is a meme pic for it but i can't be arsed to look for it

    Oh I'm sorry, didn't think I needed to point out I was comparing the necroers to pests. Seemed pretty obvious. Was also trying to be nice about it but I suppose modesty is hard to understand...

    Wasn't aware there was a "nice" way of calling someone a pest just because they make a post on a forum..

    When it breaks the rules and/or trolls with the intent of starting ***, yes they are being a pest.

    You're confused. I used the "indirect" method as a means of saying it nicer, but had to say it flat out anyway because apparently some people don't get what the indirect version implies.

    I don't understand the problem with necro...they use the search button instead of just posting the same thing as someone else and post what they want to in that discussion.

    It's much better then 5 topics of the same subject popping up at once.

    The problem is an outdated topic is spam when revived, and even worse can spread misinformation and confusion. What you speak of is spam as well, of course.

    Personally, I just think the added necro line would fill the niches we desperately need.

    We need:
    *Primary Disease damage
    *Ice spells
    *A short term summoner class

    The necro class could easily fill all 3 niches.

    No because companies like Zeni need to know the monetary gain they would get from making such a class.

    Tell Zeni that you'd be willing to buy a necromancy skill line from the crown store, and they'd start working on it in a heartbeat.

    I absolutely agree here.

    Anytime I Google anything about this game, then I get to dig around for dates to check whether or not the information still applies.

    Having the build number posted doesn't always help, either. I generally need to convert it from PC to Xbox value to check.

    This is probably correct. Plus I think it more true that the higher the stars the bigger the troll.
