Our voice is being ignored for a month now. That is way too long, not to mention the agony I experience when people can't recognize me by face. Identity is the core of every living person... please give us a life to live for. -------- Calling CCP: Give us a face! |

The machines are here and everything, but the people who can set it up are busy with Kali. As soon as Kali 1 is out, they will deal with it.

How would you feel when you don't have a face, a visual representation of yourself? Nobody will be able to love you, as they can't see you. You're just a ghost, people see through you like you don't exist!

Meh. I heard the test server is out of action for the whole weekend. I'm sure there are some people that have nothing to do (like the web team perhaps?) You have no idea how frustrating it is to not be recognized :(
Thanks for the response though (although it took a month ) -------- Calling CCP: Give us a face! |

You have a flare for the overly dramatic I think... :) But now that Wrangler has put on his superman costume, things will be fine. :)

Sami beat me to it.. if you want a face so bad, take a screeshot of your face and crop it up into a sig.. add some witty quote or some omfgnoobl33tsp34kftw! to it or something and viola .. problem solved... you have a face and Wrangler can do more important things.

Didn't they once post an ingame bounty for the man who could fix the ship on ship bug? I think that shows that ccp are open to such a thing.

QFT. I've actually looked at some other people's avatars which look nearly the same as mine and though aloud "When did I post this? Have I been drunk lately?".

Yep, and it also might open up for employment opportunities. I remember reading something about someone writing a very nice and efficient node transversal algorithm (whoops, those fancy words again... ) to replace the existing autopilot? I think he got hired later on...im not 100% of it though, but it was something along those lines.

Shortest response, someone that makes a spectacle of themselves for attention, usually through feigned weakness or depression.

Thanks Alexi! I figured it was probably something like that but I see it used so often I figured I better make sure :)

5 years ago we called them "angst teens" or "teen angsters". You know, the regular "everybody hates me boo-hoo I'm going to slit my wrists with a newspaper" or something like that. Teens with mental problems mostly.

Originally by: Wrangler If I'm not mistaken, the machine was just not good enough to handle all the new people coming in. There's just too many of you. 
Anyways, that is why some get their avatar showing and some doesn't. I don't know what's keeping the new machines, but I'll see if I can find out. 
Is the machine good enough this time? Do you have the software to make it work??
Truefully I would rather have that Item Data Base bug fixed frist.

Looks like they stopped giving faces about 10 months ago. They can't even do it for the GMs :D I guess they have *very* limited worker amount there, and the codeslave is whipped just to keep the server together, and addressing anything else is out of the question. (!s, my character, sisi, etc.)

Edited by: Garthagk on 11/12/2006 05:28:38 *briefly unlocks*
This is actually something that has been a priority of late. Without going into details, it's something we're working on rather strongly, but Revelations has been the focus around here!
Anyway, the portrait rendering had to be ported to the Kali branch of the code, and that's done - but won't be released until Wednesday. At that point we have to setup replication between the rendering servers, and we should be good to go.
So - with luck, it will be done soon. I don't want to give a particular timeframe, as this does depend a bunch on operations to setup replication, t20 to make sure rendering works, and me to, well, make sure to kick people...
But, yeah. This is something that a lot of people are really making noise about within CCP, so, we've not forgotten!
