I did that yesterday. Systematically turned them all off to see if I could find which one. I was also unaware that everyone wasn't having this problem(edit: I stand by my comments if a large portion of the population is having the same problem which there seems to be). If you stand by the auction house you would see what I mean. People are linking items in chat so they can see the tool tip as you can't see it in the AH UI if you mouseover.

I didn't really want to go on a huge rant about all the things that are wrong with the game. I am just pissed that something this small should be fixed immediately not days later. I assure you that QOL bugs can destroy a game, and how I know that is true: It made me (a loyal gamer) question whether I made a mistake and if I should cut my losses now and move on to another game. Btw in your opinion: what has made so many people leave this game to this point?

This one particular bug might not be anything big to complain about but talking about bugs in general the state of the game is really embarassing. Because of the huge number of bugs. Just take a look at this thread for instance, Crb is absolutely hopeless at delivering bug-free contents, not to speak about their way to fix old bugs. We could make an endless lists of bugs that have been around since a while and have yet to be addressed. Then you have bugs that they aknowledged but will never get fixed (e.g. arena raiting titles being given out randomly to ppl who hardly pvp) or that won't get fixed any time such as the Winterfest ones. At least for me it isn't about one single bug but they pile up every single patch and old bugs don't get fixed. You may say having to /reload everytime you want to inspect someone isn't such a big deal but, how long until it'll finally get fixed?

Uh, I've called out Carbine plenty the last few months. What you're doing with this statement is similar to what I criticized the OP for: Taking your limited experience and generalizing it to the entire situation. I often see posts on internet forums that have valid points which are undermined by the style of argument used to deliver them, or a lack of research done before the post was made. IMO, the OP's criticism of Carbine's response to bugs is warranted, but describing that response as the 'state of the game' is not warranted. QA is a real weakness of Carbine's... but even at that, Carbine's weaknesses don't eclipse their strengths. If you're going to talk about the state of the game you would necessarily need to talk about things that are going well, or you're just using tunnel vision to mislead people into believing your own negative disposition is the reality of Wildstar. Here's the framework I've been using for productive discourse these past few months: https://www.sas.upenn.edu/~haroldfs/dravling/grice.html Not that I'm always true to it, I'm human too. But if you can find any value in those principles then you might understand the type of player post I'll typically criticize.
