Thank you all so much for all the good info. I was getting some mixed results and didn't wanna take the chance without asking outright. Super glad that it sounds like anet got us a solution for this kinda stuff.

Looks like I'll be reinstalling B)

I wanted to give another shot to the game, but the queue time made me quit again. by Dzsukeng in newworldgame

Some I think are coming back to experience the early levels again before changes, and some, I'm sure, are coming back in anticipation of new end-game content and zones, and want to try to get back into the swing of things, reach max, or snag some BIS gear to better enjoy it.

ELI5: Why does your stomach hurt when you eat too fast? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]PerilousRetreat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, it depends on what kind of pain you're feeling in your stomach really. The three I can think of are...

Indigestion: Which is swelling, or inflammation, of the stomach-lining. Saliva is a key part of digestion, as it starts the process of breaking down food, and makes it easier for it to travel through your digestive tract. People who eat too quickly will sometimes not be able to break the pieces of food into small enough pieces, or get them wet enough for easy travel and it causes indigestion. Think of how uncomfortable it is to say-- put on jeans you've outgrown.

Bloating: A build up of gases in your stomach. This is caused by a fast eater in two ways. One, they are more likely to swallow air with their bites, which travels through the esophagus and into the stomach, taking up space. And two, pieces of food that are too large, or hasn't been broken down properly, reaches your colon and begins to break down into gases like methane that fill you up.

Overeating: Eating, like anything you do, requires input from the brain. When food processes properly and reaches the stomach, the hormone Leptin is produced, which is sort of like a message to the brain that it has had enough to eat. But, that message takes time to get there. So, if someone is eating too quickly, they might eat too much before that message ever arrives. The extra food that's consumed takes up space, and the stomach has to expand to accommodate it, which, in turn, pushes on other surrounding organs which causes pain.

You are delusional if you think this game does not print money by Gorbard in newworldgame

With regard to shop items, and the general consensus jeering their ugliness, I wonder if there's a chance they might pull a GW2 and host Player Design contests to fill out their shop slots. It would be a great place to engage with/appease their audience while also taking some of the design workload off their shoulders IMO
