The diplomatic time out can easily be gotton around by simply saving and reloading the game. Reload the game and everyone is happy to talk to you again!

Hmm, I haven't played any DA betas, but from what I read: Isn't it supposed to give you the silent treatment for a little while?

Therefore being able to reload to get passed it would be the bug

the silent treatment isn't a bug... it's supposed to be that way. the fact that you can get around it is a bug.

Bug or exploit? I lean toward exploit. Reloading a game just to be able to communicate with the other races is a design flaw of the player and not the game engine.

See, when I read "tomato" i hear it as "to'mah'to"... So in effect you just typed:
To'mah'to To'mah'to.

Try To'may'to To'mah'to to make the difference distinct!
