What i can say?allready argh told what i want to tell.since the vu 7 i lost everything.if i remembe well i had at that moment around 3k ped stuff i my storage.in 2 weeks i lost almost everything.but,like a real player which love this game so much,i started to deposit and deposit and deposit.i don t care if i lost some money in this game i just care about how fast i loose them.now,a hour run at small-medium mob cost me about 100peds.what can i say about loots?it seems like our money go to this ubers which do 4hours globals and hofs.if u stay in game long enough u can see the same names running on globals.allready i know few hunters which in one hour did 3 globals at 3 different mobs(midlevel mobs).which hunter in our soc managed to do that???//
let s speack now about the items which u can be looted from a mob.there are common,regular,rare and very rare items.the rare items are valuable items or tt items.in all my globals if appear a rare item it s tt item,no a nice item with a nice mark up.btw,i looted once a very rare item from calamusoids(atrax jaw ).
all this things and many many more let me belive we are for MA just some milking cows and they don t care about us,the small players which along the journey in EU we deposited lots of money.since i started to play EU i m more happy to get a ukash voucher as a present then a piece of clothing or somethingelse .
if the things continues in this way i will quit this beautifull game and i will start another one with a monthly fee membership.allready i downloaded AFTERWORLD and i wait for my account.a lots of people from EU will move there.
i hope MA will listen ours frustration and they will do something for us!

I agree with things that Scad and Argh said, although I have not experienced the problems to the level that they have.  Just some simple points: 
When latency and packet loss cause major problems, other support organizations tell you to ship them a packet scan and traceroute listing so that they can see where and why the system is breaking down.  The fact that MA doesn't ask for this is a clear indicator that they don't care.  You can't fix something without seeing where the problem is located. 
Per Ubers getting globals and HOF's all the time on medium mobs, where we seem to have a difficult time finding globals at all, may indicate that their Perception and Serendipity are much higher.  But if it makes that much difference, its an indication that the weighting factors are way off balance.  But I have always felt the weight factors on EU are completely screwed up.  Ubers love this, and maybe lobbied for it, but its had a very negative effect on beginning and mid level players.   
MA destroyed teams when they removed any equal splits.  The damage determines is where things are now, with Leader takes all being the easiest way to make splits, but it requires the whole team stay on line for the entire activity, people can't join and drop out easily.   This has been complained about, and its obvious that the fix is easy, as MA had it, but has now removed it.  Their argument is processing the stacks into equal splits is just so much Bullsh*t, as they had no problem splitting ped and pec before.  The processing is on their server side, so if the load is higher, invest is a bigger processor, or split the loot server (dedicate one to team loots).  The solution is trivial, but once again MA doesn't care. 
How many people thought getting rid of gold and silver was a great idea?? and loved it?? But did MA care? 
Its nice to get ammo for loot, but guess what, its really hard to track success in hunting when you are burning the profits as you play.  Does MA care?  You bet they do, they love it that we can't track success or failure during hunting.  Now you get a pile of items dropping, but add the number up and gee, its only 15 pec split amoung 5 different types of items.  Success for MA, really bad for players. 
Currently EU is an accountants dream, lots of money coming in and none going out.. perfection.. until you look at player churn, and loss of players, or length of play time..Its an obvious downward spiral.  And so far it looks like MA doesn't care about that either.

If you guys cant see if you profit or not...
then do as i did the whole time.. start with blades and stuff so you dont need ammo and doesn't shoot the profit away.

[Ben]

I will try it Totyen.  Rumor has it that loot picked up a bit this weekend. 

[scadrilles]

i saw a improve in loots as well during the weekend.but today(monday) things get back to normal.another management trick.

[JJG]

Hehe nice idea

[Ben]

I have noticed:
Thursdays are terrible loot days.
Any time between 8:00-10:00 (US Central Time), which is prime playing time for me, is bad, because all the servers reset... typically one at a time.  You can see really long dry periods.  1/2 hr or more. 

Crafting is horrible except for Ore Amps.  And only Ore Amps for ubers. 

I have crafted since mid December and have spent 60,000 oils, and lots of other resources and have never had a global.  In the past month, there hasn't been a loot over 15 ped, crafting. 

Last hunting global was about November 10th.  Have never had a mining global, yes, I know about my HOF. 

Therefore, I firmly believe that MA has decided that those who do not deposit sufficiently will not get get any form of reward.  Those that do, get "rewarded".  Alexander indicated that he got a HOF on his first day!!!, go figure. 

[JJG]

It is certainly looking that way

Well for now anyway
