    Seriously - did you just equate yourself to a battered wife because of blizzard buffing, nerfing then rebuffing XP gains in battlegrounds.

    Sure hope that Aion doesn't continue this cycle of abuse by nerfing things.

    Hopefully in the morning you'll have gained a bit of perpsective.

    Yes, I did. I made the comparison because despite all indications that things will never change, I find some way to believe things will be different this time. Sorry if this comparison was a little too melodramatic for you, but I thought the sarcasm was noticeable.

    As for perspective, whose perspective should I gain, since apparently mine doesn't count.

    I suggested finding some perspective - not finding someone elses.

    I didn't say you were wrong to be annoyed at blizzard - I just had a problem with your analogy.

    When you mentioned battered wives I imagined people in abusive relationship, getting the crap knocked out of them on a regular basis, living in constant fear. Too scared to change things.

    So it seemed completely out of kilter with your earlier statement of feeling " a bit jaded".
    Quite a bit different from what you were trying for.

    Knowing now what you were really trying to convey with your analogy I apologise.

    It's all good. I can see how the battered wife thing can be taken out of context. I'm not in any real danger, and I didn't intend to belittle domestic violence. Codependent would have prolly been a better way to phrase it, but I tend toward the sarcastically melodramatic at times. I just feel stupid sometimes for getting so angry at a change that I am willing to stop playing only to come back so easily.

    S'all good. I'll either find somethign fun to keep me playing, or I'll try other things till I do find something fun. Aion might not be the answer, but it's fresh and the timing was almost too perfect. There are a lot of wow expatriates over there citing this patch as the reason, but who knows how many will be back in a week or two. Optimally I'd like to get enjoyment out of both games.
