94 The Game Officials Are Formidable and Assertive (1/2)
Night Tide Sands was in a very good mood. She even drove a little faster.
After returning to the miaodao club, Roland helped unload a few bags of bamboo sheets, declined Qi Shaoqiu's invitation to eat lunch, and rode a public bike home.
Qi Shaoqiu looked at his younger sister, somewhat confused, and asked, ”After being out and about with your sweetheart, even your mood's different?”
Night Tide Sands blushed, turned around, and ignored her brother.
Qi Shaoqiu felt even more heartbroken. He couldn't even maintain the dead fish eyes expression unique to a venerable recluse.
Roland returned home, opened the game's official website, and found that the game officials issued an announcement as expected.
Just as he had anticipated, the officials completely ignored the reports of players who purposefully stirred up trouble.
The game producers even directly wrote these words on the announcement.
”Everything that the player Roland does in the game is consistent with the rules of the game, and to reiterate, everything is consistent with the rules of the game. This game's world is open and interactive, there are no fixed processes—all roads lead to Rome. Players can use a variety of ways to meet the quest requirements set by the game's system, as long as they are abilities, methods, or skills of the game. We can't punish a normal player. In addition, some players are clamoring to leave if Roland is not punished. At such words, we are quite disheartened, sad, and aggrieved… Except that's not all true! We are not disheartened, but we actually want to laugh. You want to leave the game, go ahead. We will be very considerate and send people with a car to recover the game cabin. We still have the same words: we'll give a full refund! Then, we'll sell it to anxiously waiting players who are willing to pay a high price.”
These words could be said to be extremely arrogant and extremely assertive.
Roland already expected the game producers to give a similar reply, but when he personally saw these words, he was no longer worried.
After all, current society allocated things based on noise—whoever cried the loudest would be the one who received privileges.
The game producer's actions instantly made him a fan of theirs.
However, the forum was overturned.
The Most Official Cheeky Statement Directly Rebuking Players, Completely Unprecedented.
Are the Game Producers Retards? To Offend Several Major Guilds for a Single Player?
Waiting for the Game Producers to Swallow Their Words.
Although I Don't Agree With the Threat of Leaving the Game, It's Too Much for the Officials to Rebuke Players.
There were large amounts of threads similar to this upon refreshing the page.
There were also a few posts from rational players, but they all got lost in the posting frenzy.
Roland felt that something was wrong. The atmosphere gave him the feeling that a storm was coming.
And at this moment, his phone rang. The caller ID was 11 zeros.
Roland took a deep breath. He knew who it was.
The call connected, and Ma Huajun's voice sounded through the receiver. ”Roland, there's no need to be nervous or afraid. We're on your side in this matter. All you need to do is rest well, do nothing, take a good nap, and continue playing the game at night.”
Roland had wanted to ask what was happening, but after hearing this, he swallowed the words back into his stomach.
Then, the call ended, and listening to the beeping tone, Roland laughed helplessly. He then went to eat lunch with his parents, sat down and rested for a while, and took a nap.
Across the distant shore, a blond-haired, blue-eyed middle-aged man hooted, ”All of you, post, post with everything you've got. You can even use automated software to do so or copy and paste. A single forum reply for 0.2 bald eagle dollars[1]—work more gain more. Remember to reply with the main points: you must say they do things without scruples, no service for the players, no intention of treating players as gods. At the same time, lead the netizens to heckle, guide the discussion, to let the gaming company hand over the game development and the monitoring rights to the public scrutiny—lead them to say things like 'the public should have the right to know, especially with this kind of time-surpassing technology.'”
