I need the definition please. I've tried to look it up but there are references to greetings in other languages and an internet governing group. Pretty sure those don't fit. Anyway, Lotro is my one and only foray into the world of MMOs and I'm trying to get up to speed. Thanks for the help.

Usually it also implies "even though that seems completely stupid" to the non developer.

Re: Definition of WAI
Everyone left out the implied clause of WAI = Working As Intended...(well, we were hoping no one would notice until we rolled out a fix, but since they did we'll just say it is "Working As Intended" until we do get around to fixing it.)

Fixed that for you, always specify what kind. Generic syrup is like generic ketchup. Originally Posted by Sapience

Alas! The answer is not mine. I stole that WAI from the last thread of this kind. Originally Posted by Sapience
