(The day's Date)
Dear (Name of recipient)
"The Pom Pom Diaries" is the first book in a proposed series. It is set in the present day and is aimed at a teen audience.
Alyssa McCann is a typical teen-ager who is looking forward to starting high school and has a guaranteed spot on the cheer leading squad. Cheer leading is something very important to her as her mother had been a professional cheerleader. Since her mother's death a few years ago, Alyssa has pushed herself very hard to emulate her mother and become a cheer leader as well.
Her father loses his job and they move across the country. She feels devastated about leaving the only home she has ever known, all of her
friends and of course this means she will be losing her spot on the cheer leading squad. This is a coming of age series dealing with many of the issues teens face today including drinking and
teen-aged pregnancy, first loves and first break ups.
Thank you for taking the time to read through my proposal for the series "The Pom pom Diaries" . I look forward to hearing from you if you are interested in reading more.

This book does not sound like my kind of reading material. But I've sent this to a couple friends by email (there're not on the site), and they said it was the kind of book they would like. I've also see plenty of people who read books like this. You should post it on booksie. I bet you'll get plenty of readers.
Thank you :)
I had a data loss recently :(
And lost the original. I am in the process of rewriting it for FebNo - along with about 7 other novels that were lost. At least I still have the outlines and the notes I made while writing it originally.

Migration, Identity, & the Colonial Encounter
Tayyab Mahmud
Seattle University School of Law - Center for Global Justice
Oregon Law Review, Vol. 76, p. 633, 1997
The immigrant puts at issue assumptions of inviolability of borders, territoriality of sovereignty, and exclusivity of citizenship - fundamental characteristics of the modern state. The immigrant calls into question cultural homogeneity, linguistic commonality, shared history, and security of identity - the key ideologies of the nation. This article explores these issues by locating them in spatial and temporal sites removed from the common foci of current immigration debates. Using three stories of migration from colonial and postcolonial South Asia, the first part of the article demonstrates that within the general context of empire and imperialism, the determinants and processes of migration are multiple, as borders are porous, identities flexible and sovereignties malleable. Recounting the story of post-migration existence of a particular South Asian community, the second part of the article demonstrates that the compatibility of the immigrant with the nation and the state is always partial, contingent and unstable.

Sources of School Pride
- Columbine High School offers a comprehensive and rigorous course selection, including extensive Honors and Advanced Placement courses and a diverse, well-rounded curriculum supported by a highly qualified and dedicated staff which works purposefully to prepare students for college and careers.
- The Columbine community has long-standing traditions of Rebel pride and a culture of strong teacher-student relationships since our doors first opened in November, 1973. Multiple service opportunities and supports for student learning are in place and our school pride is reflected in our oft-referenced mantra, "We Are Columbine!" We are committed to fostering learning success among all our students.
- Columbine offers a variety of award-winning, inter-scholastic programs, including robust athletics, arts, drama, music programs, leadership and diversity organizations, National Honor Society, Key Club, DECA, and the Big Idea Project.
In a continuous stretch for excellence, Columbine recently collaborated to create a refreshing shared vision framework. The vision helps inform our actions, words, and deeds as we work toward a unified mission of supporting success in learning for every student:
Columbine High School is an inclusive family of students, teachers, staff, and parents. As a Rebel community, we stretch for excellence in our thoughts, words, and actions. Working toward our shared vision:
• maintaining high academic expectations through high graduation rates, low and decreasing remediation and dropout rates, and success on AP, SAT, ACT, and similar tests.
• teaching students the skills they need for success beyond high school. We will promote college and career readiness through an offering of relevant and rigorous learning experiences.
• nurturing our students in capacities that help them to be confident, compassionate, gracious, and productive citizens.
• implementing timely interventions that target student needs and utilize a diversity of resources.
• inclusion and acceptance of all students and staff, recognizing every Rebel matters.
• the contribution of our Rebel staff in maintaining a clean, safe, healthy, and friendly educational atmosphere.
• creativity and risk-taking on the part of all members of the community.
• diverse and engaging learning environments.
• keeping up to date with instructional resources and technology, and exploring ways to update and modernize our facility to foster a 21st -century learning environment.
• personal and collective responsibility and accountability for all members of the Rebel family.
• engagement in the process of inquiry as an essential component to learning.
• all students to engage in higher-level thinking, problem solving, and collaboration.
• timely and meaningful communication between all members of the Rebel community.
• that consistent enforcement of school policies and procedures, those founded in a culture of respect, provide an environment where students and staff can thrive.
• in the quality and professional expertise of our faculty, and therefore, they are given the freedom to innovate, experiment, and take risks with new teaching strategies that meet the needs of all students.
• that empathetic relationships between teachers and students foster growth.
• that the teacher evaluation process at Columbine will support professional growth by promoting cooperation, feedback, and positive reinforcement.
• multiple paths for success, understanding the need for a wide variety of curricular and extra-curricular programs.
• flexibility in scheduling to allow teachers the time for collaboration, conferring, reflection, feedback, and planning.
• advancement of our Rebel faculty's craft of teaching, supporting participation in on-going professional development and working closely with colleagues.
• partnerships and communication with our feeder schools, parents, and community at large.
We are proud to call ourselves Rebels, dedicated to this shared vision. We Are Columbine!
In order to demonstrate examples of how we go about advancing and actualizing our vision, we are proud to share the following school, community, and student accomplishments:
· We are proud to acknowledge the many gracious gifts and donations of our parents and community partners in support of the Frank DeAngelis Columbine High School Academic Foundation; a 501c3 non-profit organization that is dedicated to supporting the academic success and learning environment for the benefit of all students and teachers at Columbine.
· Through five unique Columbine-based and memorial-fund scholarships, our graduating seniors are eligible for up to $12,500 in scholarship awards provided at the school.
· In 2014, our graduating seniors generally amass millions of dollars in yearly scholarship monies and awards.
· Various graduates over the past three years have received the prestigious Gates scholarship and Perkins scholarship. Last year, we honored two National Merit semi-finalists, one finalist, and this year we currently honor three Boettcher scholarship semi-finalists, and one Boettcher scholarship finalist.
· We are proud of our many athletics programs, and have been awarded the Jefferson County 5A Paul Davis Sportsmanship Award for four consecutive years. We have won a total of 16 state championships in our school's history, and many of our student-athletes go on to play at the Division I/II and other inter-collegiate athletic levels in a variety of sports.

A few of you may get this 2x because hort.net seems to be experiencing some
trouble, so I sent it individually to a few of you, too.
I went back and took a picture of the plant called Jacobina. She puts a lot
of interesting names on things. She had a Red Sister Cordyline that she
called Red Sister Iroc. I can't find any reference to Iroc as a common name
anywhere. There are 2 pics of the Jacobina at:
The URL takes you to one, click next for another. And while I have you
here, another very vague plant for Island Jim to take a stab at IDing. The
owner, who winters in Florida, said someone of Spanish descent gave her a
tree/shrub called Red Cee in Florida. She said it has red walnut-like
leaves. Beyond that I know nothing. any ideas?

Microsoft is taking the Windows 8.1 upgrade quite seriously this time, modifying it to meet with the speculations of the future computer world. Microsoft earlier mentioned that the updated Windows 8.1 would feature the legendary Start button, which was excluded in Windows 8 and thus created a lot of confusion among traditional users. Apart from that, Windows 8.1 would also include 3D printing and file format support to add to the delight and tally with the user grievances for Windows 8. Microsoft help forum highlights the other developments in the latest operating system.
Shanen Boettcher, General Manager of Microsoft's Startup Business Group, stated in a recent blog post that, the company is making the way for "a factory on every desktop" concrete. "Making a 3D object on your PC will be as easy as writing a document in Word and sending it to print. Just as desktop publishing transformed how we write, we think desktop manufacturing will transform how we create," he added.
What is being offered with the support for 3D printing
Microsoft stated in a recent post on the Microsoft help forum that, "While 3D printing is not in the mainstream yet, it is only a matter of time before it would be, and with the potential to crank out increasingly complex creations as easily as printing a Word document. In fact, customers can buy a 3D printer at Microsoft retail stores this fall and at Staples for $1,299."
Mike Kemery, co-founder of Makerhouse, a 3D fabrication unit in Seattle, Washington, said in a supportive video, "Enabling people to actually print through Windows software is a precursor to where 3D printing is going to go, and how it's going to grow within the home." Kemery added that it is a smart move by Windows and that it is going in the right direction.
Boettcher argued in the video that as microwaves were both "disruptive and interesting" for the users at the initial stages, so would be the fate of 3D printing for some time. Boettcher claims that analysts assume the worldwide 3D printing market would reach $3.1 billion mark by 2016 and added that it would emerge as "a convenience that people are really going to enjoy".

Jim, thanks. duh.......I was trying all week from work, not home. But I did
also try from home last night b4 sending the message to CHAT and it didn't
work Thurs night, but.......
Well, it works from home now Fri, a few min after noon CDT.
Wait a minute. They did change it. It had 'ridgeway database' in the url
b4. It was originally a straight mobot site, then the url changed a couple
of yrs ago w/ ridgeway in the name, and now ridgeway has been removed. Both
addresses get you there, but some chnanges have been made. Maybe it WAS
done just this past week and I was just lucky enough to be trying at the
same time.
Thanks to all. BTW - it's agreat tool. Most plants print on a single page
and it's handy to print when you give a friend a plant.

We should have a start page, built mostly native so it can be visible and useful while Gecko is starting. We will often (sometimes?) not have an image of a previously open site to show, or may even not want to use one, if it is old enough. A start page also gives us a place to communicate with the user, and is especially useful on first run.

WIP patch
putting the start page in its own activity means we can't start it until well into the life cycle of our main activity. This changes course a bit and makes it a view that we show instead of the layer controller's view. Same look and feel (screenshot should be identical) but, its displayed much sooner.

Wireframe of native fennec start page
Our start page should contain:
* Top Sites (which is the top results from your Awesomescreen)
** "more" link that opens Awesomescreen
* Remote Tabs
* Tabs from last sessions
* Add-ons
The attached mockup shows the start page based on different times that a user lands there.
First time
* Sync setup link
* Add-ons
After browsing for a while (but no sync setup)
* Top Sites
* Sync setup link
* Tabs from last session
* Add-ons
After browsing for a while AND setting up sync
* Top Sites
* Remote Tabs
* Tabs from last session
* Add-ons
There will be more polished mockups coming soon, but this wireframe can be used to start building out the page's functionality for now.

currently the top sites view is scrollable. Do you want to make it not scrollable and replace it with that more link? or keep it scrollable and loose the more link?

Also, since we're using system history and bookmarks we'll still have top sites for the first run

screen shot
So if the user enters about:home in the location bar, or clicks the about:home link on the about:about page, you load aboutHome.xhtml, which then messages Browser:ShowAboutHome.
Can you send that message from AboutRedirector.js, or register a custom component from MobileComponents.manifest, and get rid of aboutHome.xhtml?
Anyway, if you remove (or hardcode) the page title from aboutHome.xhtml, you can remove aboutHome.dtd and aboutHome.css.

I suggested the same thing! But Brad points out that having a dummy page helps maintain browser session history (back/forward).

Yes, good catch.

Now I kinda understand the mShow usage. You are hiding the view. Adding more comments to the above code...
How are we hiding the view when selecting tabs?

Start Page mockups with more polish
Hey guys, here is a more finished mockup of the start page.
The screens on the left show what it should look like with our current functionality: Top Sites and Add-ons
The screens on the right show what it should look like once we get Sync and Session restore hooked up.
NOTE: The whole page should scroll as a single unit, rather than its current implementation where top sites scrolls as its own window.
Who is working on cleaning up the front end UI for this? Ping me in #mobile and we'll get going on specs and visual assets. Shouldn't take us long to get this looking good!

This singular shampoo proves that style and substance aren't mutually exclusive. The sleek packaging and fresh scent are a nod to Parisian flair, while the scientific formula is designed to turn fine, flat strands into rich, full-bodied hair. (No strings attached.)
Received a sample of this and the conditioner in my box last month and it is absolutely amazing. You do not need to use as much as normal because it is super concentrated. It smells fantastic and the scent lasts a long time, which is important to me. I would LOVE to buy more of this, but it is just too expensive.5
This shampoo is worth every penny! It is amazing in every way. It lathers right up and smells delicious. After using it, my hair felt luxurious. It completely surpasses it's reputation. My hair not only had volume, but a soft texture and I could swear it helped strengthen as well. Simply put, it just makes you feel beautiful.5
I used to always think it was a waste to spend tons of money on shampoo and conditioner when there are $0.75 bottle of VO5 out there. But when I sampled this a few years ago from my Birchbox, I could REALLY tell the difference. Compared to using creamy Pantene, when using this natural gel-like shampoo (any Number 4 shampoo) my hair feels nongreasy, cleaner, fresher, and softer throughout the day. I always try to get a deal because this is expensive, but if you are trying to find a difference in shampoos, this one definitely takes the cake. Definitely if I indulge myself, I would buy Number 4 products. Definitely my favorite and I'm obsessed.5
I received the clarifying shampoo as a sample and loved it so much I bought the full size. While I like it, it's a little too clarifying to use every day, so I thought I'd try this volumizing option and switch back and forth. I DO like the way the volumizing shampoo makes my hair feel, and it lends some additional volume to my long-ish (a couple inches below my shoulders), wavy hair, but I like the scent of the clarifying shampoo better. Either way, both are good products, I just wish the scent was the same!4

This has been a great park for frisbee golf. However, the hurricane in oct 2016 damaged the park extensively so its not functional riight now. Check it out thiugh asthere are plans to reopen the game. The park is open and lovely
Located at the corner of Nova Rd and International Speedway, a major intersection in town it's a nice park with several activities for the younger crowd. Good place to relax and enjoy the day.
Tuscawilla Park, if you came to Daytona Beach for the beach why go to the park. Nothing much there. It's small and not a quiet park, set at the corner of Nova and International Blvd. Both roads are always busy. It did have a small Zip-Line and a small frisbee course before Hurricane Matthew.
Park is very small is not for exercise, park has a small playground for children and has not running path or walk path, it has not table or bench to see. It great for zip line. Park has zip line for beginner and advance, good experience for family 9yrs or older. Advice wear tennis shoe to be able to experience...
I had never been to this park & it isn't just for those that are strip-lining! It's absolutely a beautiful park!
This is a very small park tucked in middle of town. It offers a zipline course unigue due to location in city. Small play area, frisbee disc course, may rent out areas for parties. Very secluded from other area parks.
this is a very nice park. Pack a sandwich, fruit and some drinks and you can have very nice day! If you don't want to pack a lunch there are some nice place to eat close by. I go here often when I want to enjoy nature and enjoy the nice weather we have in Daytona. Once in a while...
My three children (ages 12, 12, and 10) and I tried it out this past week. We had a wonderful experience. The ropes course was gradually more challenging and the ziplines were LONG! I had read great reviews, but the length and quality of the course were even better than I expected. It took us 2.5 hours to finish all...
Awesome zip line activity for those able! Kids love !!!! Most awesome layout and perfect to watch in the shade if you don't zip line . Do it first thing in am and expect your kids to sleep afterwards! Took us 3 hours all together. Go at own pace and choose what ones you want to do. Really great to...
My family (husband, myself, & 2 teens) went to this park to play disc golf. The course was one of the better set ups we've come across over the years. Each hole has an arrow pointing the way to the next hole. Beware of the ponds throughout the course. If your disc goes in there, it's gone. The water was...

I looked at the zipline and obstacle course with interest but have some health restrictions with regards to my shoulder. Is it necessary to pull yourself along the cable or is it gravity driven?
Can I walk my dog in the park?
Can you go to Tuscawilla Park and just walk around or do you have to pay?
We are going Christmas Week and just looking for things now to do when we get there at Daytona Beach.
Thank you in advance,

Im being Barbie, so im going to need to look at your Barbie Loves MAC look now 🙂 I wasnt too into MAC then so I dont have any of the products. If all else fails, i think purples on the eyes would go well. I'm still deciding on the "perfect pink" lipglass/lipstick I will use
omg. im going as barbie and doing the same make up look too! but it's okay. we're probably in different countries 🙂
I have two looks that I want to do:
1. Ice Queen! White Frost + Silver Dusk powder all over my lids and brows, like a theatre eye mask. No brows, just frost! White lips with turquoise on the inner area of the lips, and Steamy all over cheeks! Frost, frost, frost! Then lashes with Liquidlast liner on the outer part of them (possibly Aqualine).
2. Lace mask (Carbon eyeshadow stippled on a lace fabric all over the forehead and down to cheeks) and red lips to go with that. Like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-hAcfHDZHM&feature=related
What do you like the best? My hair is almost black, ivory skin. I think that the lace mask will look so neat but I'm not sure how good it will last during 10 hours of work. The Ice Queen is easier to do touch-ups on.
Definitely! I love Halloween 🙂 I'm going as a zombie, woot!
Not this year, I'm getting my make-up done free at my MAC so If I do, it'll be someone glamorous.
any ideas ladies?
I have to work, so…no. Sadness! I love doing gore/zombie makeup.
Actually I am being beautified. As me and three of my friends are going as Robert Palmer girls(you know, the girls from Addicted to Love and Simply Irresistible videos), we all have appointments at MAC to get Black smokey eyes and Red lips. It should turn out nice.
HEY! I just saw you made your Breast Cancer goal. Congratulations!
oh that sounds sooo cool! great idea!
I'm going as a Parisian Whore, Moulin Rouge style, so I'll be wearing very smokey eyes with red lips and some overdone blush.
I'm gonna paint lacy mask on my face, plus smokey eyes and red lips. My inspiration is a video MakeupGeek did you her Youtube channel. She's awesome.
broken porcelain doll. just drawing some cracks on my face with fluidline. its based off the mac facechart from…last year?
I'm doing my version of MissCheivious' sexy witch look.
I'm going as the Queen of Hearts. I had a smokey eyed look with red eyeshadow in the crease, and then fading out into my cheeks as blush. And of course, red heart-shaped lipstick.
I'm going as a ladybug. I'm going to do a variation of MissChevious' ladybug makeup look.
I'm going to be a dark fairy. I'm wearing Vellum, Lotusland, Parfait Amour, Knight Divine and Stars and Rockets eyeshadows with Feline and Rave eyeliners. I'm using Rave to draw a little design coming out from my eyes. Then I'm wearing black lipstick (lightly) with Ms Fizz over top and a little bit more glitter. And Crushed Bougainvillea on my cheeks. I got these really pretty purple wings too.
I'm being a cat (cliche, I know) so I'm just going to use Long Stem Rose Slimshine, and then Blacktrack to do a cat eye. I haven't decided if I'm going to make the eye kinda smokey, but I'm definitely doing fake lashes. I've tried those evil things before and they never turn out right, so hopefully I can get them to work this time!
I'm going as a construction worker (ahahhaa!) so actually.. I may be keepin the makeup to a minimum this year :0~!
I'm going as Tina Turner!! I think I'm just going to do a black/silver smoky eye (wearing a black dress) with falsies and red lips, of course.
I'm going as a geisha! white face, fluidline eyeliner, and pink eyeshadow around the eyes with pink blush and hardcore bright red lips. I'm excited about it!
I think you should do a halloween contest, like last year! It was really a lot of fun!
A celestial witch. Blue foundation with white glittery stars and moons, with purple glittery eyelashes.
I'm going to be a pirate! I'm planning to do black smokey eyes and red lips. any suggestions of products or how to do the eyes?
I'm going to be Richard Simmons. I have some awesome (horrible) american flag running shorts and a fro brown wig. As far as make-up in concearned, this look doesn't require much, just a lot of brozer, rosy cheeks, and nice long eyelashes.

I am looking for information on Mollie Hall.
She has introduced the following pelargoniums:
Double Doy
Above are in the miniature zonals.
Think there are other types of pelargoniums as well. I think she lives in Doncaster in the UK.
Found a piece of information on a website that won't open that she gave a talk on micro-miniature pelargoniums.
I anyone has information on her, would love it for my records.
Thanks, Sandy

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
It is with concern that I have noticed a misconception among some of us. Beta testing is spoken of as an entitlement by players, implying a right to Beta test simply for being interested in the game. In addition, some players discuss games they are Beta testing in public forums, possibly breaking non-disclosure agreements, and attempting to dissuade other players from considering playing the game. They may point out specific flaws found during Beta tesing or generalize, but the majority of these players seem to treat Beta testing as a demo of the game.
Commercial beta tests ARE a demo of the game, like it or not.
I also consider it a good thing others try and dissuade other from wasting their money based on their own bad experience. This is consumer supporting consumer, and thats a good thing.
I take it as a sign of confidence in their product if a Dev offers a commericial 'beta' or a trial for their game before/ at launch.
If a Dev is hiding behind a NDA at the point where they ask for money then I have to ask myself... do I trust this Dev? Do I know their product? Do i have faith in their ability to deliver?
In the case of, say, FC with TSW that answer would obviously be- yes, I know them and their product, and no I do NOT trust them.
With ANet it is- yes, I know and trust them.
If ANet ever birn me the same way FC has (twice!!) then obviously I will re-evaluate this.
Maybe if people actually TESTED instead of just looking for a free trial...
That Guild Wars 2 login screen knocked up my wife. Must be the second coming!
WHY? Nobody has any right to anything that they do not own or have bought.
Players have as much right to access Beta testing prior to release as they have the right to subscription free games.
Of course, it would be nice to have the option, but claiming it as a right is way beyond fantasy.
I'm betting that beta testing sooner or later will be a part of the pre purchase industry standard, where you prepurchase the game and are allowed to do the job of testing and improving the game for free............. where you get the right to pay for the unfinished game, and then invest time in it to finish it.
Hmmmm.........Back in the old days definitley not. However the world has changed now. If publishers are asking people to put down large sums of money before a release date is even set for pre-orders and collectors editions, then those players are contributing to the development of the game imo and should be alowed in the test. Also, as many of us have been badly stung by AAA releases over the last 6-7 years then I feel it's only natural for people to want to get a early peak at the game to see if it's something they want to buy. However the sense of entitlement that a lot of posters and gamers I have seen vocalising their opinions on these boards and others is enough to make you loose faith in humanity. I think once companies started advertising beta access as a selling point that they changed the nature of the whole process.

It's also with concern that I've noticed a trend of developers using public betas mainly as a part of a game's marketing program; advertising guaranteed beta access as a prepurchase perk, making them short to just get a glimpse of low level gameplay and not really use them for testing purposes anyway. Though there might be players stumbling over unknown bugs now and then in a beta weekend, chances are that extensive closed, in-house beta testing already got 99% of bugs and issues listed.
We see this kind of practice more and more with AAA releases. In that sense I really have to aplaud the ArchAge developers for their long, open betas without NDA and without other strings attached. It's a much more honest and less cocky way to handle it in my opinion.
I think 'right' is a poor choice of words. I think that any company asking money from players should offer a sample of their product via an extended Open Beta, however, and leave Closed Beta and NDA's to actual testers, the way it was previously.
However, I would also point out that the rules of Open Beta should be downright draconian in that if a player wants to participate in it, they do so under no illusions that they can be/will be banned at any time for activities like 'trolling'. I've just finished the CBT series on TERA, for instance, and have encountered no small number of people who won't purchase it because they thought that the community was going to be as atrocious as what they saw in the beta which was positively overflowing with so-called trolls. The only response to their presence was 'thats the way it is', and that is no answer at all.
So in summary: No, not a 'right', but a fair expectation given the amount of money being asked of them. Whether the industry responds to this fair expectation is another thing entirely.

Sums it up well
You don't have a right to beta test anything. However companies will often use beta access as a means to spread the word. When large amounts of people get access to a beta, why would X get in and Y not? The company has the option of keeping betas closed. When they go for a public beta, then I don't see why a consumer couldn't see that as a right. You're as entitled to try it as the next guy, so I guess that's a bit of a right even if it means nothing at all.
Beta testing is a hot button for me, and I think that they should be very limited.
Companies need to pay people minimum wage to internally test their games. Open/closed betas just don't seem to work as well as they intend, and of course, leaks happen. I will list several, personal, reasons as to why I don't like open betas, or big betas.
It IS a marketing ploy that almost ALWAYS fails horribly. Let me explain why I say it fails and doesn't work.
A:) People see the game, play the game, THEN decide they don't want to purchase it. This, in my opinion, leads to less sales because these same people would most likely puchase it anyways just to try it out. This leads me to my second point.
B:) Beta testers use up all the content. In beta, well, in these "new AAA title betas" users are able to experience most if not all of the game content, in beta. They experience this content while it is buggy, thus causing them anger and pleasure at the same time depending on how the bug affects them. Let me elaborate further...
B1:) When people experience all the content in beta, they witch and moan when the game actually comes out. They reach the top tier level within a week - a month, depending on the player because they have already experienced everything in the game, they know the secrets/best spots to level, and they do it super fast to be "#1 (insert class". After this happens, they complain. They complain about everything. You can refute this, but look on any forum a month or two after release, People Are Complaining, People are leaving, not in small numbers, but in large numbers.
B2:) A company gets excited and releases 100 servers on launch day. While this is good, and it appeases the gamers initially, a good percent of them generally crumble ruining the experience for everyone else on the server. Too often companies cut and cut to make a few unhappy gamers happy, but these unhappy gamers who were unhappy initially then got appeased are most likely to become unhappy later on, continiously ruining the gaming experience for everyone else who is involved.
C:) People don't actually report bugs. OK, some people do, but the majority? They are in it for the "trial". They are in it to find out all the secrets, to find out how to be number 1 on launch day, how to be so good that they can talk crap on the actual new players. I understand you need to "stress test" servers, but honestly...with so many MMOs out, do you REALLY need to stress test? Can they not learn from previouse experience and know what their servers can generally handle? I am sure each game is different and I am no pro game tech person by any means, but aren't MMO servers...MMO servers?
I have been in my fair share alpha beta tests, closed beta tests, and open beta tests. I have been MMO gaming since 1999 and after so many years of MMO gaming, testing and what not, this is my personal conclusion that I have come to.
Beta tests should be limited, if not internal, and people honestly should not complain when they don't get their "free trials in order to see how to level the fastest then complain when they get to top level and are bored." Refute this all you want, but in my opinion this is the number one thing that I hate about betas. People use up all the content, then witch and moan about nothing to do. This ruins the experience for everyone else that enjoy the game because they bail, make servers empty, ruin the economy and generally provide a bad attitude that influences the community that they are in.
Sorry about the long post, but yep!
I am entitled to my opinions, misspellings, and grammatical errors.
There is no such right.
So an MMO lemon law?
Sounds great, but the government doesn't take the industry seriously enough to police it, much less look out for its customers rights.
'Sandbox MMO' is a PTSD trigger word for anyone who has the experience to know that anonymous players invariably use a 'sandbox' in the same manner a housecat does.
When your head is stuck in the sand, your ass becomes the only recognizable part of you.
No game is more fun than the one you can't play, and no game is more boring than one which you've become familiar.
How to become a millionaire:
Start with a billion dollars and make an MMO.
Has anyone saved themselves $60 or the sub fee by beta testing the game? You got to see how the company treats it's customers, takes feedback and see how the game is. I've done it before, FFXIV beta was a good case. Me and my friends were hyped for the game, played it, found we had nothing to do but grind after our 8 daily quests were done and we saved ourselves $60 of awfulness. Oh yeah, and the FFXIV team at the time plugged their ears and said no feedback, JP ONRY. Glad they got what was coming to them.
Is it a right? Well, would you rather have people in the beta who just want to play it while it's free, while not letting people who are actually going to pay from playing? Most MMO games are moving towards F2P anyways, I don't see why it would really be an issue in the near future.
I never seen players feeling entitled to being in a beta, only going nuts at the chance to get access to one by contests. If you're referencing GW2, people paid $60 to get access way before they even have a release date, with the guarantee that they get access to beta weekends. Some people are feeling Anet is just calling betas something else, like this weekend's stress test, which was yesterday and some today, thereby keeping out people who paid $60. A lazy day zeta test would be another term for it. Anything that doesn't include beta or weekend you can exclude the people who paid.
Really, I haven't seen players feeling entitled to any beta access. Instead they've been jumpling on each other just trying to apply, that's it. I have however, seen people defending companies for no reason, which is a more disturbing trend. Still, the right? No. But the companies usually have open betas now, so what difference does having a right make?
What they need to do is stop calling it beta and call it public review or something.
Been screwed over way too many times in the past by undelivered promises. At this point, nevermind whether I pre-purchased or not, I consider the onus on the developer/publisher to be willing to let me play their game if they expect money from me. In fact, this extends to any single-player games too - demo or gtfo.
I suppose that this is horribly arrogant on my part, and I know I didn't have this attitude 4-5 years ago, but it's pretty much a necessity now. There's no overseeing commission in existance, online review sites are thoroughly untrustworthy and usually incompetant, and online word-of-mouth is suspect, with the IQ of a concussion moose. Game companies repeatedly and consistantly fail to deliver on promises, and suffer very few meaingful consequences from it. So the only protective barrier left involves experiencing the game personally - before purchase.
So yeah, I'd better get beta/pretrial/whatever access if I go to the extent of actually putting money down for it. If they want to call it a "beta", go right ahead. I'll even post any bugs/glitches that I manage to find, even if I don't particularly believe it'll accomplish anything. But fair warning - deep down, I'll probably be treating it as a finished product that will help me decide whether it's worth anything.

This is about just prior to launch, at that point testing has been done, the question is essentially should they offer a free preview before launch?
I don't think it's something they should have to do, it is certainly nice when they do though.

Beta testing is not a right. Beta testing is a job. I think that giving people that pre-order access to beta is wrong as well.
I've always considered Beta tests to be a privilege not a right. I also figured the companies gave us Dev clients that sent them gameplay data as we played. Also everyone should know that open betas are meant as a stress test for the servers to make sure they can handle the load.
I started to reply then reread the original post a few times... I honestly am not quite sure what exactly is being asked here.
Part of the post talks about players view on beta testing and entitlement. Which is fine except the problem with beta since at least Auto Assault.. is that its now a reward for pre-ordering or pre-purchase. Its hard for me to view players as feeling entitled to something... when companies are using the "beta" as a marketing tool. You can't blame the consumer for following the path the PR machine is creating.
That said... I don't believe every person who thinks they want to play a game should be in beta.
What confuses me the most about the original post is it seems to more be saying there should be no beta test. Or at least not one that people sign up for and get invited to.
Internal playtesters cost money. The only other option is to oursource to some kind of "professional testing" company... which again costs money. I don't believe you are ever going to see companies willing to add that expense.
Allowing "players" to beta test ultimately results in free access to a volunteer tester base for a company.
If you want to talk about improving the beta process... well that's something I believe companies should seriously consider.
What does that mean? Well for one you stop using beta access as a reward for pre-order/pre-purchase. As noted in the original post there is a point to beta. It takes a paticular mindset to spend hours day after day trying to break things, deal with broken things and leave constructive feedback.
Companies should really start being far more active in removing non productive testers. This isn't the person who stated they could only log in a few hours during the week and more on weekends. This is the people who spend all day.. day after day cluttering the beta forums.. with post about how X (that will never be in the game) would be better. Instead of actively testing the product that IS being made.. and offering productive feedback on that content. Some of the recent beta's I was in.. the beta forums were pointless because they were just full of opinion on things that had no relevance to the game being made.
I agree with the concept of testing a game before you launch it.
So nice of us gamers to happily line up to do so, we even feel that we are "special" when we get to.
To view it as a right is fail though. If you are allowed to beta test, you should view it as an, I'll call it, obligation. You should most definatly answer polls, and submit bug reports.
If you want a "free trial" wait till the game has been out for a few, and the publisher tosses those out.
I do believe that giving players a taste of what is to come can be both a positive and a negative for games. I feel like players sometimes get a little confused as to when and when they should not be allowed to test. When you open up the idea of Beta testing you give some people the idea that they will get their hands on the game right away.
This isn't always true. I don't see anything wrong with companies offering this, it's just that players have to understand that it is Beta and with it being in that phased that many, many mechanics can't change before release. Another thing about players and beta is that they believe they are there to enjoy the game and check out what the world will look like and stuff.
This is true but the point of a Beta is actually to weed out bugs and glitches both in graphics or sounds or anything else that might come off as a little out of place. When players begin to bypass that soul purpose of Beta and just want to get in and do nothing but try and meta out a toon then it becomes a waste sort of.
Hope this makes some sense..
PM before you report at least or you could just block.
Not so sure about a right, but they should seriously consider something like this. Offer the first x levels or whatever free, or do something like "play 20 hours or 2 weeks free".
The later option would probably be better, making it more difficult to drastically change the game beyond what one can see in the free preview.
Limiting the time would also make it nearly impossible for a single person to see everything, while still allowing access to everything, so you can not lock the bad stuff away.
Unfortunately, it became increasingly rare for non-mmos to offer demos, usually pushed back well after release (like, a year) or straight out declined.
Something like this would also help combat piracy. Many would still download it obviously, but many really just want to know if it's worth their money. With games only a few hours long, there is not much incentive left to make you buy it once you played it an hour or two to get to know it.
Obviously, this would lead to some peole finding out it's not worth their money, but just as many would see that's cool an all and buy it.
I'll wait to the day's end when the moon is high
And then I'll rise with the tide with a lust for life, I'll
Amass an army, and we'll harness a horde
And then we'll limp across the land until we stand at the shore
Sure, but it is all up to the developers.....But most of what people will talk about are more stress tests, and fixes that come with the stress tests....
Their are more private closed betas, and people do, do their job, and some find bugs and stash them away for launch to exploit...
The betas that go along with pre-ordering, they are more stress tests imo...
Dumbest idea i've ever heard. In fact, i think in order to play in beta, you should have to pre purchase in any case, and forfeit any chance of money back the minute you log in.
Or..outlaw any form of pre purchase/order altogether and make it the law the game can only be sold at release. Beta participants thru free invitation only.

Below are key drivers of AT&T's value that present opportunities for upside or downside to the current Trefis price estimate for AT&T.
For additional details, select a driver above or select a division from the interactive Trefis split for AT&T at the top of the page.
AT&T makes money primarily through mobile phone subscription plans for consumers and businesses. The company also provides landline phone service to residences, small businesses, and large enterprises. Broadband Internet service represents a growth area for AT&T. AT&T acquired satellite TV provider DirecTV in mid-2015, making it the largest pay-TV company in the United States.
AT&T's mobility services units account for a majority of AT&T's value for these two reasons:
As of December 31, 2015, AT&T served over 128 million wireless subscribers, implying that it held over 33% market share of the U.S. wireless market. Mobility services account for over 50% of AT&T's revenues and we expect this number to grow, on account of rising wireless data growth.
Mobile data usage has skyrocketed in the last few years due to the increasing proliferation of smartphones and the related applications and services. According to Cisco, North American mobile traffic per user will reach over 8 GB per month by 2020, up from roughly 1.8 GB per month in 2015, translating into a CAGR of 37%. Voice usage on the other hand is trending lower. According to the CTIA, aggregate monthly voice use in the U.S. fell from 218 billion minutes in 2013 to about 205 billion minutes in 2014. Carriers have also been tailoring their plans based on the monthly amount of data offered, while typically offering free unlimited voice and text.
The U.S. wireless market is saturating, with the total number of wireless connections standing at over 355 million and the number of wireless phone subscribers standing at over 315 million, roughly in line with the U.S. population of 319 million.
It's likely that growth in the number of wireless phone connections - which represents the most lucrative segment of the wireless market - will slow significantly going forward. Carriers are likely to focus on retaining existing customers and winning over porting customers, while driving an incremental upside from areas such as connected devices and tablets, M2M connections and wholesale services to drive growth in service revenues. AT&T for its part has been focusing on postpaid smartphone customers as well as prepaid customers, while reducing its emphasis on postpaid feature phone users, who often have ARPUs lower than its prepaid ARPU. The carrier is also the largest player in the M2M and connected auto space in the U.S.
The wireless market is intensely competitive, with the number of wireless subscriber connections exceeding the total population (319 million) in the U.S. As an ever increasing number of smartphone users demand higher speeds and congestion-free networks, wireless carriers are hard-pressed for additional spectrum in order to meet these demands. AT&T's spectrum-driven acquisitions over the last couple of years, including Leap Wireless in 2014, have put the carrier in a better position than rivals in this regard and should suffice for network enhancement for the next two-three years. AT&T could also be a major player in the FCC's 2016 incentive auction which will transfer valuable 600 MHz spectrum from TV broadcasters to wireless carriers.
AT&T closed its acquisition of satellite television provider DirecTV in July 2015. The deal should enable AT&T to become a key player in the content distribution space, across various platforms including mobile, broadband and TV. AT&T will also gain rights to content such as the NFL Sunday Ticket, which is one of the hallmarks of DirecTV's offerings. The merged company will be able to offer a "quadruple-play" bundle that includes mobile and fixed-line phone service, high-speed Internet and satellite TV. AT&T intends to launch three new streaming options dubbed DIRECTV Now, DIRECTV Preview and DIRECTV Mobile beginning in 4Q 2016.
Capital Expenditures are cash expenditures by the company to purchase, repair, or upgrade physical assets, such as property, buildings, or equipment. We forecast the mobile division's capital expenditures using ${forecast}.
The company was not a very large spender in the mobile division initially, concentrating instead on building up its fixed line infrastructure (primarily, U-Verse and DSL networks). Rival carrier Verizon was spending much more.
However, AT&T realized the need for investment in 2010 as focus on connection reliability and data increased. It subsequently upgraded its 3G network and rolled out the faster 4G LTE network as well.
Consequently, its Mobile Capex increased from $6 billion in 2009 to $11.4 billion in 2014. This was reflected in the Capex/EBITDA ratio as well which increased from 28.6% to 42% in 2012 before declining to 37% in 2014.
Going forward, we expect Capex to remain around $12 billion levels by the end of our forecast period. Since EBITDA is expected to increase consistently in the future, we expect Capex/EBITDA ratio to come down to around 35% by the end of our forecast period.
Trefis considered the following factor for its forecast:
