One of my accounts is giving me an unusual error when I try to purchase premium time: SORRY WE COULD NOT AUTHENTICATE PLAYER: ROLANDO SERVER RESULT WAS '' It appears to be a null error. If I type the wrong password it gives 'PASSWORD DOES NOT MATCH.' Attempting a character that does not exist gives 'AN ERROR OCCURRED WHEN LOADING YOUR ACCOUNT.' I am able to log on to other characters of mine, and receive the same error on multiple browsers.

So I can't help but notice that while my character is in the T pose, all other characters stand normally with their arms down.

I don't see how both these sets of statements can be true at the same time. On the one hand you admit there are sometimes changes without patch notes, then you say that it never happens. Also I object to your continued efforts to impune my motives. Nowhere have I said anything about 'hiding' or 'sneaking'. I am merely pointing out places where there is not any communication currently and suggesting there should be.

How am I the troll when you eventually have to admit that my initial statement was actually correct?

Didn't we start the whole conversation asking for more information about what was being changed behind the scenes? But I'm glad you're acknowledging that things are being changed without patch notes, thank you.

I'm sorry I don't write down the time and date every time the client forces me to download new packages and re-launches with a new version number so I can't make such an absolute statement, but it does happen, quite frequently. If you like I can start recording that information and pm you each time. The fact that it ever happens just once is the complaint. It takes two seconds to type "Minor bug fixes" or "Removed exploits", and I have seen such patch notes in the past, but they are rare compared to the number of times that there are no patch notes at all.

A change is not an update. We have always been at war with Eastasia. Mince words however you please, it doesn't invalidate my point.

And the other two options, classic and classic light are what are in the client labeled light and dark?

New skins happen once a month and usually have a patch note. Updates without a patch note are three to four times a month.

That's the best new feature you could ever add for me, and many others, but apparently not enough of us to matter. But seriously, what is that ironwood theme supposed to be then?

Why do I have to download a new client with a version number difference if nothing is being changed?

I'm not expecting a single update. I am expecting communication. Two completely different things. If nothing is being done there's nothing to talk about, but lots of things are being done. There's constant little updates with no patch notes. If nothing has changed there wasn't a need to download an update.

What is this ironwood theme then? It was supposed to be the old theme. Honestly I don't understand why we're being forced to switch over. I understand none of the new features are going to be added to the old client but I see that a benefit not a detriment. There isn't a single feature in the new client that actually adds anything to the game for me. Leave it in and don't update it. If eventually you add a feature worth the hassle of switching I'll switch but I'm not holding my breath.

So we just can't retain the old theme at all?

The only option I get in game is Light or Dark. I am running the linux client if that matters.

Honestly the fact that he didn't know that proves his point about communication. While it was announced, it was an after thought on a thread about something completely different. Just because another team is really good at something that you're not as good at doesn't mean you shouldn't try. The complaint isn't that we don't have perfect communication, it's that there's seemingly no effort being made. Keenan is doing a better job than before, but considering before you'd get communication maybe once a year, or longer, moving to every couple of months is subjectively better but objectively still bad.

Not seeing any changes with the themes.

Are the themes going to be fixed? Just logged into the test server to check and all three, classic, classic light, and ironwood look identical. They all appear as the new theme which I don't like. https://imgur.com/a/dzVC7Us Don't forum enough to know how to insert the images properly.

Odd, are there patch notes hiding somewhere? I can't find any.

do -c, it will give you a list of options, not sure why -lowmem was removed

Thank helps, thank you.

What's the command line option for the old ui client? Normally I use -lowmem but that's not enabled again yet, -c does work but it's an extra step Actually can we get a list of all the command line options? I'm not seeing them anywhere.

While I stand by my initial statement of appreciation for many long standing bugs being fixed, every day since the patch more and more new bugs are piling up. Are all these new bugs going to be addressed, or are we working back to front, oldest bugs first?

A tidy list of bug fixes. Very much appreciated.

Considering the amount of times the game rounds things oddly I suspect this is another rounding error. IE: The game reports a trait as 5 points but it's really 5.03 meaning the horse with 75 trait points is really 75.2 or whatever.
