NC Soft – I wish you could hear us….

Lineage 2 -The Chaotic WTF Chronicle. over the last week the C5 PTS opened with a bang.. more like a thud. Where a Russian hacker brought down the server by hacking into the game and giving himself every subclass + who knows what. After that the server went down for 12+ hours and No one knew much other than the servers had been hacked. 2 days later the servers go down for another 10 hours NC soft locked forum access and Claims it had a problem with the forum

WHen the forum went down and you tried to log in the forum told you “you cannot post here because you may have an inactive account or are banned.”

so Watching the forums for hours for any sign of life wondering if i had been baned till another used MSN’d me with the same error msg.

My problems are for one NCsoft is staying very quiet about this and pushing everything under the rug as fast as they can. 2 they changed everyones passwords.

It leaves everyone uneasy, the thought Of someone may have our information . so Whatevers going on NC NEEDS TO keep the users in the loop

Social Security bullshit. Drugs part 2

Well i’ve posted before about this.. way back when i started this site and just recently . and Now its gotten beyond annoying because socail Security has onces again trying to say im somehow better.. yet in the last 2 months i’ve been denied allergy medication and i’ve been short of paralized with migraines every few days.

the last 2 times i’ve gone through this the people who decide my case have been trying to use a clause change to medicare to get me off of the system, Carpel Tunnel is not covered by the *system*. the problem is, I dont have just carpel tunnel i have a polyneuropathy. basicly means more than one type of nerve damage. unFortunately these just feed off each other and gets worse as time proceeds.

Now the last time I had to fight this down to a lawyer but i got a look at the records the socail security admistration was using. and they had there whole case hinged on the fact they just wanted to knock me off on the carpel tunnel because while the reviewer was out of the room i opened to the first page of his noted which listed pretty much everything he wanted to *tell* me

in big letters underlined and circled was CARPEL TUNNEL if that doesnt tell you anything what does.

Drugs.

I’ve been on alot of medications… and there seems to be a pattern to it. doc perscribes me something. it works good for awhile than eventaully it starts making me really sick. Its getting annoying because every time this happens they have to step up the medication to something more powerful/different

I dont even feel like thinking about the next step but its going to be hella annoying

Uni rocked by marking fiasco

Rohan Duggan … left his university in frustration / James Robertson

 

A UNIVERSITY graduate student abandoned the institution in frustration after a marking fiasco during which a lecturer told him to produce “more smarter writing”.

Former Queensland University of Technology Master of Business Marketing student Rohan Duggan, 38, said his nine-month ordeal included seven meetings and hundreds of pages of correspondence, some farcical.The original marking of a 2000-word paper included a comment from lecturer Edwina Luck advising Mr Duggan to present “more smarter writing”.

After Ms Luck graded the paper at 65 per cent, Mr Duggan questioned the grade and Ms Luck passed it to another staffer, Dr Yunus Ali, who downgraded it to 35 per cent.

In re-marking, Dr Ali questioned the use of the terms “Yin” and “Yang”, a Chinese concept of balance, and said they should have been listed as references in the bibliography (a list of the books used as reference material).

Yesterday, Dr Ali admitted he had “no idea” what the terms meant and thought they were references to people’s names.

“We don’t go into the deeper meaning,” he said.

In response to further queries, Ms Luck sent Mr Duggan a short e-mail which, because her “s” key was not functioning, read as: “I knew you would be di appointed, o what I have done i taken the middle ground. I am uppo ed to take the econd mark, but I did not want to kill you that much. I do hope that you have learned from thi . Not the point of a king for explanation, but that we a lecturer are not totally illy!! Academic writing i difficult. I hope all our comment can be helpful in the future. Edwina.”

Mr Duggan then took his complaint to higher authorities and his original mark was restored.

Mr Duggan said the restored mark helped him achieve a distinction in the subject, although when he learned that Dr Ali would have been teaching him in second year he decided to go elsewhere and has now completed a Master of Marketing Managing degree at Griffith University.

QUT registrar Dr Carol Dickenson and Business Dean Professor Peter Little said that both Ms Luck and Dr Ali had been reprimanded and made to attend a seminar on Learning and Teaching Issues.

They agreed their conduct was “obviously unacceptable”.

Professor Little said if due process had been applied, Ms Luck would have given the assignment to her (Luck’s) head of department who would have selected a staff member himself to do the re-marking.

He insisted Dr Ali was “very well qualified academically”.
