Stop it.
That "big dog" isn't so big anymore. In six months time that big dog went from bragging about sub #'s to the world the last time, boasting a return to numbers to levels near it's peak years ago to losing those numbers and going below what they had maintained after 14 months of the previous expansions content drought. They haven't mentioned sub numbers since and never will again after that embarrassment. Anything taken from that game at this point should be done so with extreme caution. It's appeal is to it's die hards.
