New Stuff

Thanks to everyone who helped me celebrate my wonderful vassal's achievement of reaching level 80! A lot of Tuskers sacrificed their lives to make this event a success. As I state on my home page, the site wouldn't even exist if it weren't for my vassal, Ned Cleversun. From some of the strong feelings expressed to me in your letters, I am more aware than ever of how much you enjoy Maggie the Jackcat's Kick-Ass Fabulous AC Web Site. I'm so pleased that I was able to give you all the opportunity to get to know the man who helped make it all happen just a little bit better.

Below are some of the letters I received from my regular visitors: the amused, the confused, the angry, the indignant. As more came in each day, patterns began to emerge. I've separated a sampling of them out into different types. I left out a couple of categories: the begging, the crying, the pleading. And actually, I was just a little bit disappointed that there weren't more attempts at outright bribery! ;-) I couldn't possibly publish all the letters I received, but truly, I enjoyed them all. Even the ones that were so surly they could only have been written by (yes, you guessed it) that dastardly "Anonymous." And if I seem to be poking a little fun at some of you by publishing a few of these, please remember: it doesn't mean that I don't love you!


The Amused

I thought someone was pulling my leg when they told me that you had completely revamped your website to be an "homage" to your vassal.  I had to check it out for myself. (I hadn't played much lately thus I didn't have much need to read the latest from The Jackcat) I have just been perusing the site.  I can't even think about playing AC now, my eyes are filled with tears from laughing so hard...  ah, to be the all-important vassal to my monarch :-P

Maggie you're a gem!  I love Ned and I hope when he makes 90 you're still his patron.  My favorite was the Ale Mugs, Pizza and Ned passed out on the couch.

LOL!

In an obvious play on Ned's name, all I can say is very Clever, very clever. Love the Ned stuff and even got 6 correct on his quiz.

Cool tongue-in-cheek stuff here.

I do so love your site. I surfed on over today to check out info on statues and found the best laugh I've had all day. I have no idea who Ned Cleversun is, and I don't care - Thanks JackCat, and thank you Ned, whoever you are...

Hey Maggie your site r0x! I must admit, when I first saw the Ned Cleversun
homepage I said to myself, "Huh???..."

Then as I noticed that ever link I clicked on took me to something about
Ned Cleversun, I started laughing my ass off. When you say it's all about Ned, it's REALLY all about Ned. LOL

Actually love the regular site as well. It is the FIRST place I look for info :)

Subject: I LOVE YOU! Ow wow, what a silly choice of titles, I promise it's
not a virus, honest! (It's actually icons.)

Your tribute to your vassal ROCKS. :)

Pity the unwashed masses have the reasoning ability the size of a flea for puzzles. ;)

btw, I did up some icons for ya, so you can have em all up to date. Enjoy!
:D

Narisah, HG

**********

This is great! I love it, so witty and amusing! It's hilarious to see all the people on the message boards think you got hacked. I sat here and tried every link to see what else I could learn about Ned! This obviously took a lot of time and effort, I know how that often goes unnoticed, so I for one want to congratulate you on a job well done!

Hoenir Borrson of FF

**********

Loved it Maggie!

Very funny, somewhat tongue in cheek, never serious.

But I hope that nothing else motivated this "tribute"? (My bitterness detector's pointer moved to stage 2) To take a picture of someone passed out on their couch is mean, but I note that you still have his cottage key.

Good luck to you!

Best thing ever =).

The Ned's Portal Map had me in stitches =D.

I had to stop reading because I am at work and out-loud guffawing doesn't go over well.

Almost as funny is that some of my fellow allegiance members are complaining about how you changed the site.

Maggie,
This has to be just about the best witch call that I have EVER seen in AC. And I've seen a bunch of them.

Thank you for making my morning, it was a totally hilarious addition to
an already exceptional site.

Thank you for the amount of time you have spent on your site, it has certainly helped both myself and many of my followers in asheron's call.

Nice new look to the site btw.....enjoyed the poking fun at ned :)
 
Anyways.....back to the slaughter.

**********

I got a real kick out of your site's makeover homage to Ned. I read through every page and followed every link, and laughed out loud several times.

The Tourism page is my personal favorite. :)

Many thanks for all of the hard work you put into your Kick-Ass Fabulous AC Web Site. And congratulations to your vassal on his achievement!

Mila of TD

What you have done with your site if the funniest thing I have seen since the Morningthaw Mockery, and quite frankly A LOT funnier. Hehe keep up the good work ;)

Sean

Heh, ever since I starting using your web site, oh about 5 months ago, it has been ok, good info etc. etc. But let me tell you, this site is better than ever! You got your ned fletching, and your ned fashion gallery, I mean, the fun never stops! Every ten seconds I'm seein' if you updated the site, just so I could read about ned. The guy's an animal.

Gotta say, the site is better then ever. I mean come on, you added all of that Ned stuff and didn't get rid of any of the other information! Hehe, I love the Ned quiz (I got a 7) and the pick of him wasted on his couch! Priceless. Anyway, great job on the site!

PS::: to all you people out there who don't know, just go to do a search of the site, all the old info is still there ^_^

I love it's all about ned maggie. Your new and improved website not only holds tons of useful and informative information that we all enjoy regularly, but now it has wholesome entertainment as well.
   
Thanks for giving me and all the other proud members of Tosh on Wintersebb a good hearty chuckle.

Ok Maggie enough is enough! I was hitting all my normal boards which includes yours looking to glean new AC info, the page popped up as usual and I began to click the customary new stuff link to find that it did not refresh or so I thought. What the...? Then I read the title and began to put it together. NED NED NED everywhere I look its Ned in my face. I started to laugh and kept laughing until my side hurt. I began to think of all those AC people that rely on your site daily for hints and tips, this only made me laugh more. Then my boss walked by...Oops...uh...yes sir...right away sir... he walked off and I flipped the page back open. Whoooo that was close. Good thing my aim is good at hitting the minimize button. Ned almost blew my cover. Your killin me... still giggle once in a while when I am digging through your site the hard way through the search options. I realized
that the info was still there but just no links to get to what you wanted... As always love the site, wish you guys were on Harvestgain so we could hunt together.

Macy Fraek of HG

First grats to ned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

second: everything is still there...you just have to use the search feature...

PS maybe you want to disable this if you want all ned all the time...

Calladyn the Axe of FF

Very funny.  Glad you keep the links at the bottom of the page to the old stuff.

Thanks you and Ned for all the wonderful work you do for AC.

Heyas,

Just wanted to let you know the site change was hilarious. I don't think many folks realize that removing the _N from the file title gets you back to
good ol' normal Maggy, but it's funny as heck reading the stuff about Ned :p

- Grayson (Retired)


Helpful Suggestion!

Hi Maggie, I'm a huge fan of your quest guide!  Although I'm sure your vassal is a really nice guy I'm sorry to say that his insight and his wisdom doesn't cut it for me.  I think that you are much more suited to be the hero of the site.  Please come back!  I think that Ned would be quite pleased just to have his little corner on your site.

Ned Cleversun says, no, he would not. ;-)


It Was Fun While It Lasted

I am a regular visitor of your site and noticed that you made it a "tribute" to all the powerlevelers out there. Hopefully you have the old site still there and will, after you feel you've made your point, change it back, but if you don't that's cool also.

As a player on darktide, I'm one of the very few players that actually does quests for fun, not "phat l3wt". If you want to take down your site, that's understandable, but I'm letting you know that there will be one red dot who will miss you.

I popped into your site just to see what's new, and I saw the change. Must
say, I was in shock. For over a year I have used the information on your
awesome web site, and it grieves me to see the change. But, the world truns and things do change. I am writing to thank you for the wonderful
information that you have provided. Your site really does rock. Take care and thanks again.

Does this mean you won't be covering any new information, did we lose the jackcat? If we did, you were awesome while it lasted.

Maggie: I used to love your website. It was an absolute gold mine of
information for characters of all levels. What happened? Did you just give
up? Now where will I turn when I need that extra piece of information? But
really . . . Thanks for all the time players have been able to come and get
helpful hints and pointers, they have made a great deal of difference to a
lot of people in the worlds, and speaking for all those who have used your
site as a help reference... Thank You

Well I used to look up to this page for information and everything. It had
the best web page I had ever seen, but why did it all change. There is
no useful info here now. I want the old site back the old site was great,
this is just a bunch of trash put to together.

Are you taking your page down or what up with the all ned all the time

Its a bad thing this site is not longer what it was. It was a great information site for quests and weapons, spells and potions, etc etc.

Now it's garbage.

Dear Maggie,

I am sorry, but there is no gentle way to say this, but your web site now suck air.

You had the best website available to get info on the new stuff. 

It is a very sad day.

Who Cares About Ned? / Outrage and Contempt!

What the hell, who cares about ned cleverson!!!!! Many people look to your
guide for info on quests or items etc, now it's all about what ned did. Let him
make his own page, and where can we access info on all the quests, not just the two that ned did?

ghost face of HG

Maggie, I know you want to dedicate the website to Ned but...IT'S NOW BORING AS HELL! It's nice to hear about the adventures on you and Ned, but it's all Ned, all the time now. It's like going to thecommercialchannel.com now. If you want the website about Ned, then put a "Ned" section in, and don't go and dump the whole damn website.

Maggie! Oh dear, no. I do not like this new vassel homage of yours. *gag*
me with a spoon to put it nicely. Please tell me you plan on continuing to
update your "Orginal/Old" site. It was great and very helpful, and, I think
I speak for all of us except Ned, that we could care less about what his
favorite food is. I need recipes and updates and quest info, etc., Please
keep updating the old!

What the hell is wrong with this site? No one wants to know about Ned Cleverson. We want info.

How childish can one be. For someone who pretends to be so mature having a little tiff because your vassel and then slamming him on your web page is incredibly immature. Grow up.

Just trying to help out so don't get mad bout this following comment that about 94% of us on Harvestgain (and I have taken a poll in sub) don't give a crap about ur vassle.... just thought I'd let the truth be known

Brian the Great

**********

Ok maggie what have you done, you messed up your perfect sight! I wouldn't be the level I am today without you, now you messed up badly. I know you made this for your vassal but it helped us too ALOT. This new site has no help at all. When I went to quests it talked about NED CLEVERSUN and his quest. WHO CARES ABOUT HOW HE DOES QUEST! It doesn't help us at all! PLZ PLZ change your sight to normal with a little ned cleversun. Ok email me...

As I'm sure he would gladly testify himself to the fact that he seems to be

will just have to take a flying leap off BSD , any of them will do !!!! NO

I must say what a disappointment the new changes you have made to this site are to me and my friends at work and in the game. I have been using your page as my home page when I log on the net. I think it was one of the best pages dedicated to AC I have ever seen. Much great information was on hand for the AC enthusiasts. Now I must find a new page for home and work. Nobody cares about Ned. This new site is a waste of time.

Zinra of WE
Level 62 life mage

**********

Sweet god, why would you devote your site to him? This is where I come to find info on quests and all that other 0.o stuff. Bring it back! *shakes fist* or at least start a new page and have this one devoted to Ned. Even though he's only level 80. For the love of god don't take the site down, it's all I have (not literally) but it's a good site.

Flaming Magic of DT

This site used to be the best ac site you could find, now it's all about this

Shame on you...I thought you had more class than this. To allow a
personal problem to spill over into this site is not only petty but is doing
a great dis-service to the community you claimed to have loved for so long.
I can read between the lines enough to see that this Ned joker wronged you
pretty big but is he really worth your reputation? Sadly I, and all others
can clearly see he is.

Oh well...Over to CoD I go. G/L in your new role as social pariah.

Due to my lack of sleep and inability to READ I'm afraid jumped to a conclusion about how someone jacked up this site. But now like an idiot I found the link to the REAL page and now feel like a total jackass for typing a totally unnecessary rude rant about This Ned guy and apologize. But really that cat thing is pretty silly. =)

hehehe, I found out how to get back to the original site. Sorry, your
insidious plan failed!! I can still get help for myself!

Helpful Tips for Ned!

It was with great amusement that I looked though the Ned pages. A bow skill of 340 is actually not bad, but tell Ned that when he gets into the 380 range to give me a tell (382 bow skill at a mere level 70).

And even though Ned may think he is a bowman extraordinaire, any true
archer will tell you that REAL archers only use Elari bows.

Hi Ned, I really have high hopes for your web page for ac, but I really
stress that you should have the quests listed like on Maggie's.

I have a question for Ned. Ned you should try GSA. It's kinda weird seeing a level 80 in a Matty unless he's pk-ing. And, well, just go PK. I own level 100's so you just stick with me ehehheheh. -later

Patrons and Vassals

While I should have long ago thanked you for all your information I am lazy and never did. But the site to your vassal is even more amazing to me than an information site. That must have taken a lot of work but I think it was wonderful. I just wanted you to know that I think that was a very sweet and tremendous thing to do.

Best of luck

Aren't vassals like that the coolest? I'm level 45, and have a vassal that is level 55 and rising rapidly. (however that also means that he's not passing all of his classes...) He lives next door to me in-game AND in the dorms IRL. Last time I checked he earned me somewhere around 13 million or or something, and I don't have leadership!

Always keep an eye out for vassals like Ned and Zao Tsu!
