GM + Community = Best MMO ever? Maybe?

Fallen Earth GMs are the the the best ever??
I don't know bout the rest of y'all, the the customer service (and community) is the best I have ever seen. Any questionproblem I have is instantly answered by the community or a GM. I had a problem with a quest instance and a GM teamed up with me so I could get a 'fresh' instance and complete in the instance with my own ability (thanks "X" from 'Zanz')
Is it just me, or is the community + GM assistance the BEST in any MMO you have ever played?
The combat may be glitchy, the graphics may be wonky, the targeting may be 'unique'. But I tell you all this: The community and GM assistance is 2nd to none. Whatever glitches that this may have is 100% negated by the totally awesome community and personalized GM assistance. I bow to you all of you who contribute.

I found the community and support to be fantastic as well. Sadly, that still isn't going to make me stay in a game with forced questing (it made me try like hell to resign myself to it, though), but for those who like questing and hate trolls, this game may be the best thing out there.
I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy, accompanied by an educational system which would be oriented toward social goals.

Agreed, the GMs and the community is great in Fallen Earth.
having gms in game keep the riff raff out and that's a + in my book. FE is a great game and i'll go back eventually. right now, vanguard has it's hooks in me.
The support is great
had a problem with a item and within 5 minutes he teleported to me and sort the problem.
After APB being shut down, I went back to FE. And let me tell you, the community + GMs are so nice. Not sure if it's the best ever, only started playing MMOs around 2003.
On a side note, the game is getting better and better as well. Their pace of improving the game, combined with the quality of those improvements is superb.
I recently started playing FE and have to agree, it has one of the best communities I've seen in a modern MMORPG.
GM's that actively help, in fact, a help channel where other players have no problem helping anyone, regardless of how many times they may have heard the question before or how silly it might appear to be. (and woe to anyone who mocks someone in the help channel, the community will beat them down)
For a quest based game, I really like FE and think I'll be sticking with it (along with EVE of course) until GW2 comes out anyways.

I keep thinking about coming back. Community is great. Support puts bigger devs to shame. (my big reason for not sticking with it was the lack of much grouping going on).

In short 'yes'.
I have played way too many MMO's and I have stuck with Fallen Earth since launch and still going strong. The community and the GM's are 1st class. How many MMO's do you still have 'help' channel on after 1 year. I trialled another game recently and I was shot down after asking a few noob questions. I forgot how poor other communities are.
Fallen Earth staff are always highly visible and you know they love the game so they don't seem to hide behind a curtain hoping people continue to sub. FE is steadily, if not, topped my best MMO I have ever played for this and other reasons.
Astoria, this will change very soon. The new big patch that is coming this month will make it a lot harder and NPC's will be more challenging. All those 'group' missions I solo like everyone else will be really hard. Plus conflict towns coming in with the patch meaning big battles for towns and its resources. Im buzzing.
The community really is good in fe. I so wanted to keep playing his game. I could deal with powering through hubs to get all my points, i love the skill point system, and ragdoll death always made me laugh. I just couldnt get past the gathering and crafting systems. Unforrunately, thats a deal breaker for me. But im glad theres a game like fe out there and doing well.
This game does have the best community I've ever experienced. Makes playing other MMO kind of lonely. What I love most is that in the /help channel, there's rarely anyone being condescending or making smartass comments to total new players. There just seems to be a general good vibe running through most of the playerbase on /help channel.
Also, there's GM in the game who actually respond. It's so weird to be needing help & request a GM & then have them appear when you need them. One time I'm having problem w/ my crossbow not loading & send tell to GM & GM appears in 4 minutes. I'm like WTF??!!! Totally shock GM teleport to help me out so quickly.

Game has a lot of cool features & cool players.
Fallen Earth to me is giving a lesson on how things should operate in other MMO's. It goes all the way from the GM's being visible and available, to bug reports being acknowledged and ETA's given on fixes.You get a sense these people care about 'their' game, that filters through in all aspects and they are not afraid to acknowledge the bad as well as the good. Most importantly they appear to listen to the feedback they get from their user base, something a lot of other MMO's profess to do but actually ignore.
Can't fault the Fallen Earth community or the support/assistance from the GM's - definitely the best I have seen in any MMO.
Fallen Earth is a labor of love instead of a money grab coming from small indy company so naturally they'll care more for their game.
You don't see this attension from big gaming companies, those are out of touch with the gaming comunity, they don't play their game, are all business business so they have no clue what-so-ever as to what we want from our MMOs.
Icarus has been schooling the "big shots" since launch about how you run a MMO properly.
