We also need to avoid as much as possible any kind of infighting otherwise the devs are likely to just ignore us and do as they see fit without our input. .
Lets shock the DEV’s and act professionally by leaving out the personal attacks, stating our differences with respect and constructive reasoning, then after debating a subject, supporting our Community Rep in Her/His presentation to the DEV’s.

Piemastaj, please forgive me if I am reading your suggestion wrong.Piemastaj wrote:Beta mages need to hit the test dummies from the word go though. We need parses from 40 seconds all the way up to around 2minutes. Multiple of each aswell to factor in the RNG aswell, b/c 1 parse culd have us at 80k, the next at 50k. Once you have a good amount send them off to Eli probably or have the new roundtable member we get ( Piestro mentioned just about every class would be represented) send off your parse. I would stray away from posting them on the boards probably, we got just about 0 work done from the posts on boards last beta and had the 2 longest threads.
We have a lot of work to do, so we need any1 and everyone helping out with parses and such to get us into a nice burst/sustained zone.
Are you talking about not posting on the Mage Tower boards or on the BETA forum boards?
We all understand that the NDA prohibits posting outside of the BETA boards, but information sharing is the fundamental basis for trust as well as getting the constructive feedback from other BETA mages.
Would hate to see another situation where the majority of BETA mages go through to launch with little or no info only to hear after launch that one or a very few magicians had the DEV's ears and worked things out without involving the others.
I do believe that the Community Rep should be the single voice representing us to the DEV's so as not to send mixed signals, but the information presented to SoE should not be a surprise to the mage BETA community and when the NDA is lifted, all the mages should be able to say WE gave it all WE had and came away with the best WE could get.
