Jun 27, 2008 15:07:00 I thought you guys were supposed to have the forums in a good place right now? What gives? I can't access half the psts because of a "Database Error" and 1/4 of the time I get booted off due to "extended maintenance".

Jun 27, 2008 20:21:02 I haven't replied to any posts I have seen on Gleemax or Wizards of the Coast or D&D insider because I feel that the immediate "I have to respond without any thought and with complete angst" has not completely died down. But, I do feel that it is discouraging to find that where you want to have people meet, and mingle, and play D&D cannot simple because of hardware or software problems. It does not appear that you have truly thought through the D&D 4th edition in regards to the internet and that is a shame. I have been playing some post to post games off site and I believe the mechanics of the game are stellar. But the forums here are horrible. Play by Play haven in Gleemax is almost impossible to use because you cannot find threads you last read and most threads will not allow additions in the other posts.

So, please take this as constructive criticism from one who thoroughly enjoys 4th edition. You have probably promised more than you can bear but you need to simplifiy your concerns and get back to basics. Posts need to work!

Jun 27, 2008 20:28:56 Right now Gleemax isn't looking so hot.

I'd advise getting another forum engine or forming an agreement with another company to give you a nice, working forum. The ones that you've got now clearly are cutting it.

Is this honestly what we can expect from Gleemax?
