I agree with Tom. Given all of the other threads that have had at least some
acknowledgement on Verant's part, this one certainly deserved one. At the very
least, an "oh, my, we'll check that out". And while I agree that bumps are
somewhat cheap, they do indicate a serious interest on the part of the readership.
And how else are you supposed to respond if, in fact, you agree fully with what
was said, and have not yet seen a response of any sort from Verant? This
particular thread had 200 responses as of the last time I checked. That in and of
itself should make them pay attention. Too bad it hasn't.

PS - I'm ashamed to admit it, but I never even tried to use Pixie Strike to mez
extra MOBs until this past weekend. (I know, whip me with a soggy noodle.) Now
that I've tried it, I have one comment: this song stinks, too. I'm in Lower Guk,
we're fighting two froggies, a blue wiz comes through the door. "Don't worry,
I'll mez it", I say. Four Pixies later and no mez, I say "Oh, forget it!" and
proceed to pound him. I'm just glad nobody died. How embarrassing is that? And
that was not an isolated example.
