Dark Age of
Camelot

=============================================
Pendragon,
our test server, is currently quite undermanned. If it is to turn
into a
"real" testing server, then we're going to need to have more people
playing
on it. To wit, I'm making the following announcements:
We won't
do character wipes on Pendragon.
Starting quite soon, Pendragon
will be manned with Customer Support staff,
who will treat the server as they
do any other "normal" server. This means
that your appeals will be heard and
dealt with by CS staff when you are
playing on Pendragon.
We
will also bring up message boards whose focus will be solely on
Pendragon
issues, bug reporting, and testing results. These boards will not
be open to
the public, since the sheer number of posts would overwhelm us.
However, for
a limited time, if you are interested in "signing up" to be a
tester, we
will provide you with a message board account. Please note that
these boards
will be heavily moderated, and board members who are deemed not
helpful will
be removed from the board access list. To sign up to be a member
of the
Pendragon team, send email to Lori Silva at "
lori@mythicentertainment.com".
Once
we have received enough emails to ensure a steady board presence by
the
testers, Lori will stop accepting email requests for Pendragon Message
Board
accounts.
Our overall goal with Pendragon is to make it
a "normal" server with a
tight-knit group of testers/players who want to be
part of the Camelot QA
and "new feature" testing process. We're going to do
whatever we can to
ensure that playing on Pendragon is as normal as playing
on any other
server, with the exception that you'll be testing new
features.
