new quote from Gaile

Actually, you're barking up the wrong tree. Or croaking in the wrong swamp. Or something. Chat is complicated and the commands used can overlap. When that happens, if you were a fly on the wall you might see some mighty whispering going on. In the end, though, no one speaks for The Frog except The Frog. There is only One. *shrug*

It just seems that the Community Relations manager would try to Relate to the Community of the specific event that was going on. I was expecting a visit in the Temple of Balthazar, actually, or maybe even Heroe's Ascent. I don't actually want to see her go (sarcasm, anyone? don't make me get out the sarcasm detector picture) - she's a facet of the GW team - but I seriously can't find anything to relate to her with and she isn't the same medium for new information that she once was. Even more vague than during the betas, if that's possible.

I dunno, maybe we stand a better chance to see Isiah in the Ascent?

Whats the big deal? So the frog is actualy a person who works for Anet, ohhh big secret there.....

Perhaps Gg has schizoprenia(sp??), one personality the frog and the other gg, or maybe instead of a "guild" tab on the chat thing she has a "frog" tab and she just talks in there.

Or leap, as you choose.

But on the Road to Mistaken Valley, don't take the wrong turn and end up in Erroneous Junction.

Thank you for understanding. I hardly need defending, but given that someone seems to be determined to be nasty, I am grateful that you so clearly stated the several good reasons I was in LA after the event.

It looks more like a bug in the chat more than human error.

I highly doubt, as an Arena Net employee, you'd have to put in a % something or rather to type in yellow text or make your name and text green.

Will this cheer Gaile Up?

warban · Jan 25, 2006, 10:02 AM // 10:02

Now the real question is, is the frog another player standing in the district or external.

T1Cybernetic · Jan 25, 2006, 11:54 AM // 11:54

BAH!

These things happen, Keep up the good work Gaile! & Frogy

I understand what you are saying.

In other words, She actually is saying, due to the difficult chat commands, she accedently used the wrong command and it turned yellow. Gaile is NOT The Frog.

We understand Gaile. Still, we just might get a few laughs about it.

Gaile cleared at court. Gaile is innocent! yay! we can have our dev back. Our pretty little ranger dev back.

The Frog might have been late due to high traffic area's in Tyrea...

I think I might sue the author of this forum, because he insulted a dev.

*Shouts* *LAWYER!*

All good fun

Anet devs can (I presume?) take control of the NPC's in the game, including the frog. Not too sure on that, but I remember seeing stuff about the beta event stuff featuring Gwen turning up in places and saying things hehe.

The devs also have access to free roaming camera mode (see the memories of wintersday video etc,) so probably lots of other things any one of them can control.
