Guild Wars 2

First let me say that I’m an MLG top 5 community relations rep. I’ve been leaving concerned gamers hangin’ on forums by 360 no scope banning scrubs that ask difficult questions for years. Thats just how my company rolls.

So I was out on the gw2 forums just headshotting down posters by ignoring everything they say and empty quoting the ToS when I ran into DevonCarver and it was just ridiculous. Way too much logic and communication going on. I could do it if I wanted to, but in the pro MLG community relations circuit, this is something you just don’t do. Corporate silence on difficult issues is the tank/heal/dps trinity of the PR department. It has worked since the beginning of public relations so why Arena.net gotta go and screw it up now?

Clearly some balancing is in order so I propose the following solutions:

1) Nerf DevonCarver’s salary by 50%. Its way too high right now and makes him think like hes gotta do his job properly or something. This is unacceptable. If everyone in the sector has to compete with DevonCarver’s +liked post count, Gameforge, Blizzard and all those other major league community reps would be out of work. Their bosses all gonna insist on having one on the team. The competitive scene would be DEAD.

2) 24 hour internal cooldown on +liking posts made by DevonCarver. The lack of a cooldown is what lets him stack personality until he resembles a person rather than a faceless corporate suit. It took alot of work to be a pro faceless corporate suit, so to see some random bi-winning by doing the exact opposite is not acceptable.

If these issues aren’t fixed promptly I don’t think theres much left for me in the hospitality sector. I’m already thinking of taking my company into a different service industry like catering but I’ll have to do this if Arena.net keeps buffing DevonCarver. Seriously, who thought this was a good idea?

Might be a glitch, should perhaps file a bug report and hope no one gets banned for getting nifty and informative replies from him.

You come up with some very clever stuff Rebel. Well done

You forgot to mention that he does things that are not technologically possible:

Made blueprints account bound after Anet said they tried and it couldn’t be done.
Split EU and NA reset times, after saying it simply wasn’t possible.
Added a despawn timer to siege, after another employee said it couldn’t be done.

And probably a few other things I have forgotten about.

Devon is by far the most “in touch” Dev at Arenanet. He really understands the WvW players.

If you want a “Dev” that is “On” it. Choose “Dev On.”
The Dev with “Dev” right there in the name…
Any other Dev is just swinging a sword again.

(I see what I did there.)

Here ya go Rebel. I just had to make a meme for your story.
Enjoy

Awesome one, but how about one where they kick the boss out the window and put Devon Carter in his place?

Now THAT would be the best “patch” yet!
DEVON CARVER for INterwebs President!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for providing us with your feedback. We will inform the team about what does the community think and let them decide between the “Make Devon the employee of the year” option and “Nerf Devon” option.

Thanks for your understanding.
