Warband Warbanks are Temporarily Disabled

Thanks for the update.

Yay!

We’ve rubbed off on y’all!

You’re calling 'em “Warbanks” now too!

Now we just need the name updated on the tab :smile_cat:

Is that not the official name from the getgo?

Don’t think so, but it rolls off the tongue easily and fits the bill perfectly.

Officially, it is/was called the Warband Bank. I do actually like the sound of Warbank better though. Seems the devs agree with that sentiment.

So, we should expect more extended maintenance tomorrow?

maybe it was shut down because of the bug that it was cxalled warband bank rather then warbank :stuck_out_tongue:

The game can even get tripped up by capitalization:

Well that’s not on me, but had they stayed, things wouldn’t have improved any faster than they are now. Working on thing isn’t easy when you mind and body are tired and stressed let alone trying to problem solve.

So you know for a fact that the issue was with the devs? Not the ancient code? Not the old equipment? Not any of the other countless issues that could have been very much out of the devs hands? Are you sure that the devs were okay with releasing this when they did, or were they forced to by higher ups looking to please players and stockholders?? You can still 100% be fire in a Union shop at the drop of a hat. The Union only fights and prevents people being fired when it is wrongful, so example: had any of what is causing the issues that the game is and has been facing since last week Tuesday was directly dev(s) issue they could fire them and the Union can’t do much other than shrug and say well you should(n’t) have done X which lead to your termination. But say that they want to fire the dev team just because players are at the gates with pitchforks screaming for the dev team to be fired due to the issues we are having in game then yeah the Union would 100% step up and say no you can’t do that because you have zero direct cause or reason to fire the devs. Or another great example of how a Union protects jobs: 3 years ago my ex took the night off so that we could go pick up a puppy, he used what they call a point, but for this we will call it a pto day, the plant ended up cancelling production that night, the next day he want to work and they fired him, saying he had missed too many days. When he checked his points/pto he saw they docked him two instead of one, he inquired to HR and the Union and the Union said that it was an HR issue and they couldn’t fire him for their inability to count. The Union also checked everyone else’s points/pto for that night and the company docked everyone that was told not to come to work because there was no work that night, by the next morning the company was calling him and asking him to return for his usual shift that day because they messed up and he wasn’t fired as well as fixing the points/pto days of the other employees that it affected.

Unions aren’t perfect, but they are why we have the protections that we enjoy today in the workplace but Unions can also be bad and I don’t mean it in their a bully to the poor little multi-million dollar company, they can also fail their members, there are Unions, I know a UAW Union that has a clause that will not allow them to strike, no matter what. They can’t strike over working conditions, they can’t strike over contract negotiations, they can’t strike over wages, they cannot strike at all no matter what. That honestly takes most of the bite out of the Union.

Kaivax, thank you *hugs

Thanks for the response. Good to know we’re not being completely forgotten here, as it was starting to appear when we got radio silence for basically an entire week…

I don’t know about you or some of the others but I’d rather the team trying to fix the problem pay all their attention looking for the fix than scanning the Forums and responding, to me that shows dedication, but a well timed update is greatly appreciated as well.

I can’t wait for you all to try it first and find all the new bugs once it’s enabled.

I’ll just watch from the sidelines for another week or two :grin:

You’d be among the first people to throw their words back in their face if they said it with confidence that they will fix it.

I will have my popcorn ready and watch from the sidelines for many months on end.

TWW launch will make WoD launch looks smooth. Just watch!

:thinking:

:surfing_man: :surfing_woman:

Thanks for the update, hope maintenance goes smoothly for you guys!

Alright then.

It’s time

All of my alts who are about to get purged:
