They reset that stupid poll again. Go and vote if you haven't already. This is getting ridiculous.

On a further note.

So SOE. How much longer do you think the players will stand getting kicked around? I actually play the game and I pay attention to what has been said. That poll you have been running since the CU hit test was fairly accurate even though it represented a small portion of the game population.

So with 6007 signatures on the petition to stop this thing lets do some math. Lets say for every person who quits two alts go with them. That seems to be a good average. So (im using the petition as a base) if 6007 people quit your losing three accounts per person. So that comes to roughly 18,021 accounts lost. At $15 a month your talking about a loss of $270,315 monthly or $3,243,780 annually. Thems alot of beans. But lets say that nobody has an alt. Still comes out to a cool mil. But then not everyone who dissagrees with the CU signed it either. And I am human therefore fallible.

My best bet is to keep an eye on the Dadaleus (I suck at spelling) project and Bruce Woodcocks works to see what happens. If JTL and everything else was a good indication of things to come. Things are going to take a nosedive.

When I started playing this game it had alot of potential. You just removed what potential this game had and created a generic MMOG.

Nice figures and I hope that when this hits home with SOE they will realize what a mistake taking the CU live was/is orhowever you want to look at it now.

Well like I stated before. Its a rough estimate. Judging from what is happening across the servers. It might be much much worse.

Yeah, the Bria protest was apparently huge (and I am very sad I missed it). I tried to get a big Starsider one started, but I don't think we had more than 15-20 people by the time I left.

/shrug;

It's just a waiting game now.
