SE better do something or the game will drop dead

How could they foresee even generally what percentage of the playerbase they'd be losing?

does it really matter how much of their playerbase they lost? they had 2 choices dont charge keep more people loose money. or charge loose people but actually make money. So I think Syntaxlies point was it doesn't matter that they lost players because they are bringing in more income than they would had they decided to not charge and keep more players.

I was pointing out that there was no way SE could have pre-meditated the 50% figure so things worked out well for them. It's not like they sat and came up with a plan and said, "Yes! This idea will cause exactly 50% of the players to leave the game and that's it"! I see what you're both saying, however.

I haven't trolled not one single bit. Occasionally I do make random jokes in some threads, but certainly nothing of particular disruption. I'll thank you to either take a stance in this thread, or find yourself something else as pointless to do than try to flame me for stating my own opinions. You sound mad. Had a cup of pissoff lately?

Sounds a bit more like what you're doing right now.

Yup, thats what you did.
Pot. I'm the kettle. We're black.

BRB, need another cup of Rage tea.

xoo, you should know by now that any type of negative comment on anything involving this game is going to get you flamed. these bought and paid for se knights are going to get you now.

Speak for yourself. I bring up points, which may be contrary to popular belief, in a relatively mature and coherent fashion. This is a discussion board - where feedback from all sides is its function! I have a right to post here and I will post here and to disagree with everyone as long as I do it in good form. SE says I can for 30 days. Mods say I can until they silence me.

I know, and I don't care. It isn't going to stop me from saying what I think. It wouldn't stop them otherwise.

Them flaming here instead of playing the game actually proves your point ;D
