I must say that I don't know whether I will stick with this game much longer regardless of the changes and the SE name has soured with me. However Yoshi-P has impressed me tremendously with his efforts and his willingness to listen to the community. I had totally given up on this game, and now I'm intrigued again.

Probably too late for this game, but SE would be smart to let Yoshi-P take the lead in whatever future MMO they may be attempting.
