New content on Alla????Follow

It is 2 months after the launch of TBM, and this site still doesn't have the updates as yet. I am getting a bit ticked off I pay a premium for the site where I should be able to look gear or combines up and it is still not on here. When can I expect this to happen?

See prior posts here and here and you will realize that volunteer admns Larth and Tiran are/were working on the wikibase side of this. Volunteer admn Aiken is/was doing news updates.


Of the 5 updates done since December 23rd the 3 largest ones were mostly The Broken Mirror Content. The December 30th update took over 2.5 hours to put together and was barely a days worth of new posts taken care of. I'm a volunteer here, and seem to be the only person approving new images, updating new posts, adding zones/quests/npc. The Broken Mirror expansion added the unforseen curve of nothing autopopulating the database until the item collector started bringing in the items and spell effects --every zone, every single NPC and quest/task has to be entered individually by hand. Some things we do not appear to have access to do (add new spell effects to the "used by NPC list" presently comes to mind) as volunteers and others appear to be a steep learning curve (vendor item assigning, creating new recipes).

For some of the new zones, a helpful poster has given us a list of the NPC (i.e., on track) so that is why some zones have 100+ NPC in them and others still only have 3 NPC listed. I can't enter what I don't know. In the December 30th update I requested help with the missing instances of TBM so I can create those zones, so that NPCs can be populated correctly. Frankly, more than half the info we have on TBM has been submitted by Fayman and I'm not sure if we're getting any more information from that source as he/she was frustrated with the time it is taking to get Zam up to speed on TBM.

I personally, was extremely busy Dec. 5th -22nd (which is prior to holiday stuff) so not much got updated.

As premium members, (or even not) you are certainly within your rights to attempt to get Zam to reinvest in this website by using the site feedback forum . I personally would love a paid Railus, Fleven and Cyliena back. I don't know what else you (as in poster in general complaining about the status of the site --in particular TBM updates) would like me to do.

Thank you snailish for the time and effort you are putting into this site. I do appreciate what you and everyone else does here at ZAM.

My complaint is more of frustration because this is where I come more often than not to find the information I am looking for.

I have supported this site for a very long time and I would hope that it continues to move forward in the future by providing the players with the most up to date information on this new expansion and those to follow.

Keep up the good work, and I will practice a bit more patience while you and the other admins work it out.
