Is it on a weekend where they would rather be out enjoying the outdoors or whatever else is involved with their lives? Did they set aside personal events for events that we benefit from? That would imply many selfless acts on behalf of Pirates Staff members wouldn't it? Dare we say they have our best interest at heart and desire to see the game flourish as well? I imagine they have greater stakes in this than we do. |
Actually, developers don't work on the weekeneds. That's why there are never any updates during the weekeneds. If there are, they're probably getting some over time, because on toontown we know that most of the time the developers don't work on weekeneds. Neither do other staff members, and that's why customer service/live chat is closed.(But that's when live hcat was working. I believe some people say it's closed)
And imputting codes 8-10 hours a day? I am heartless enough to say I would like them doing that. I, however, am not heartless enough to say I think they deserve to have some fun time every once in the while. I even believe that they should take turns playing POTCO, so they can test it out and throw in their own ideas.
I don't, however, think that on regular days they should fluff off and play the game. It's their job, and they should enjoy it! If you go to a job everyday, you
should like going to it everyday. There is no excuse for you to go to a job that you hate everyday, unless you really need it because of money, and you can't get a job you like.
I want to be able to do what the developers do, and would love an internship to work on POTCO, but that may never happen or might not happen for a while. These guys are lucky to have such great jobs, and if they work that many hours a day, they should enjoy the job.
