Agreed on most things. You're not alone :D

However, I think the Mira bug was large enough to cause the amount of controversy that it did (sans the terrible "retard" name-calling). That was a major mess-up on Zynga's part. Some bugs are "okay" or acceptable, but some are not. They've been golden on ranking rewards for so long, and then suddenly they messed up. Someone didn't check the coding carefully enough. And it wasn't just any event--it was probably one of the most anticipated events ever (because anniversary and mira and all that). And it wasn't just any daemon--it was one of the most OP non-bell cards at the time. It should have warranted careful checking since it was such a huge thing. They didn't mess up in the past; why did they mess up for such a big event?

If, however, you were referring to the "retard" name-calling... yeah, that was pretty extreme. And completely unacceptable in any and all situations. :/

For the recent error in displaying the time for SOSD: the error was relatively minor (but still extremely annoying because 1) some players used the levelup they were saving for GCQ, 2) some players were in a reallocation mess, 3) some players overslept into GCQ because they went to sleep before the display was fixed, and 4) again, no mess-up like that in the past, but this was relatively minor and didn't warrant a careful checking like Mira did)

But the compensation was an absolute failure and did not make up for the little disasters from the erroneous duration input. A single remedy--how is that going to help with GCQ? Okay, maybe someone allocated 800 points into HP for Shrine and they only need 800 XP to level up, so maybe the remedy will serve as a DN, but how common is that scenario? At the very least, a single SW or even a single beef bowl of any size would have helped. (SW for GCQ, beef bowl for reallocation mess) But a remedy? A remedy????? One remedy??????????????

If, however, you were referring to people exploding over the actual display error... yeah some of the reactions were ridiculous orz not without reason, and I came close to blowing my top myself, but yeah, some of them were even more extreme than mine was xD
