    The deluxe edition of the game was always a sweepstakes that required a purchase to enter. The heroic code was the free code offer, along with the outfit code.

    She, like any other person working for Anet, has to be careful with what she says. She is not in charge of anything happening between Anet and KFT and can only comment on what she knows and is allowed to say. Stop jumping on her.

    > So what was the conclusion? It does seem to be sinking but hard to tell if that is because of the amount of posts or what. There are a LOT of stickies and your eye automatically skims all those titles.

     

    If you mean thread sinking, I don't think it is sinking. Edit: Yeah, after I posted this, the thread immediately went to the top of the non-stickied posts.

    > I did exactly that, but wasn't too sure if that was the best way to report it so I took a screenshot of it just incase there was a better way of sending more info to anet.

     

    You could create a support ticket with the information and attach a link to the screenshot (or attach the file itself to the ticket after you've submitted it).

    Something like that would probably be seen as LFG abuse. So, I'd report them if I saw such a listing.

    I just tried it out, and I definitely saw the cakes land on the ground. Keep in mind that it's only the skill 2 that shoots the cakes that land on the ground and that the cakes can be obstructed by objects in their way.

     

    I also want cake now . . .

Thread sinking is an option available via the Vanilla forum software (what this forum runs on) that allows new posts to be made but won't bump it up on the forum page with each new post. So eventually it just falls off the page no matter how many new posts.

    > TBH I remember that very opinion coming up in the Jessica Price thread and I was not convinced it was happening and did not think that ANET would do such a thing, but having kept an eye on that thread since the poster brought it up.. I am now of the mind that is what happened in that thread.. bad form if it is indeed true.

     

    Yes, I'm fairly certain that is what happened during the last couple of pages of that thread. But it was a 70+ page thread that (by the time it was no longer being bumped up to the top of the thread list) wasn't actually adding anything new to the actual topic and was instead just more of the same back and forth, repeating everything that had already been said. So, I'm not too mad at the forum mods for "sinking" that thread.

    > They celebrate 6 years by secluding half their player base.... I'm pretty kittened off.

    > I don't care for the Heroic edition, I just wanted to get the GW2 shirt/hat thing from beta.

     

    Just to clarify: The shirt and hat are separate items, and neither were related to beta. The shirt codes were originally given out to people attending certain Anet events (or gamescom) shortly after the launch of the game. The hat was a free gem store item available to everyone who was playing for that first couple of weeks after launch. The shirt (in its current Outfit form) is/was the item being given away in this promotion.

    > > >

    > > No, it is 'tea' in the same manner that a ultra-blonde coffee is 'coffee'. In other words, 1/3rd tea, 2/3rd milk, and then 2 *tablespoons* of sugar. Then they add tapioca balls, also called boba, which coined the name 'boba tea'. Shortly after the social media 'promoters' got interested someone twisted the name to 'bubble' tea and it stuck.

    >

    > tapioca? ugh, can not imagine it mixed with anything, it is basically cassava flour.

    >

     

    The tapioca in boba/bubble tea is just the big tapioca pearls, not the powder or mixed into the drink itself. They just sit on the bottom of the drink. I try to avoid them when I get bubble tea.

    No, those are only obtainable directly from the gem store, from black lion chests, guaranteed wardrobe unlocks, or the black lion statuette vendors. The Black Lion Claim Ticket weapons are all tradeable, though, except for the Privateer set, I believe.
