Yes There raised over 90 Million from some of the top companies in technology and came up with There. I don't expect any thing better from There. They have done the best job at keeping up with updates and adding new content.
We finally got a feature called ThereCam which is a in world screen shot program. They are gonna be releasing v2 Paint Ball guns soon, faster then ever! We are expecting sevral new viechles in the coming months and some new islands.
Also they started the Greeter Program which is still in development. Still we have over 100 volunteer helpers, I am one of them. One of the nicest places in There would have to be Astrology Temple. It is so well designed and the detail is amazing.
Its a round marbel open space temple with pillers of the zodiac. And above is a moving map of the solar system. It is the most amazing thing you'll ever lay your eyes on. But I know There can top that, as they always bring something more amazing in world every month.
I think they have spent the 90 Million very well so far, its a powerful user driven world and what more can you expect? I mean the developers have done such an amazing job. The whole team at There has seen it though that we the community build There, not the company.

It's like Planetside. I love the game and could go on for hours about how great it is and how I don't understand how somebody can not like it, and then you can tell me that There is better and don't understand how nobody can like There, and then I can say Planetside is better, then you can say There is better, then I say Planetside is better. But the fact of the matter is, it's all an opinion. Opinions are like assholes, everybody has them.
EQ is a giant chatroom as far as I am concerned(and WoW as well)...so There and Sims and that type of games, well, they are chatrooms mostly, but they have more non-chat activities then EQ.
If someone is grouped, raiding or PvPing while in fact they would rather be soloing in a PvE setting, for any reason, the game is a big chatroom. I prefer a group over solo myself, but if I have to group, then I suddenly prefer soloing over grouping, since solo was never enforced upon me. And guess what, in enforced groups, you get a lot of chatty anti-social freaks which should not be tolerated...raiding is the same problem, only dozens of times worser.

I love how joel ignores this one post and replies to everyone else for another 8 pages.
I just don't get why people would develope games like WoW or Guild Wars. You can't build and the possibilities are so limited. I mean there is alot less social interactions which is why the internet was created. For people around the world to interact with each other, not kill each other.
There pulls together all the great things about the internet and puts it into 3D form. I mean you can create a MMMORPG inside a MMORPG. Its just so amazing how you can do all this stuff with the tools There gives you. I mean your mind can go wild and you can do whatever you want to do.
You could create a hotel or a shop for your designs. I mean the possibilities are endless. Its so empowering and so breath taking. I mean having the power to shape and build a world where you choose what goes here or there. Its very different, having that power at your finger tips. Very different.

I have friends in real life but we're not very close. I'd rather hang out with people I am close to in a Virtual World then hang out with people I am not close to in Real Life. If you dare make another rude comment I will open up all my flaming skills upon you.
I am sick of the rude and unneeded comments towards There. You don't see me DIRECTLY bashing a game. I am doing it in a nice calm way with some common sence. However, you are doing this just to offend me and make me angry.
I don't respect people like you who bash something like There. I would defend Second Life even though I hate it. Want to know why? Because I respect what they are doing, like us they are building and shaping a world which will one day change human interaction.
Both worlds are leaps into the future and I don't understand why you bash that. It is simply beyond me! I just don't get it. Ya, I know i'm a freak cause I want to have fun the way I have fun. That makes me a bad person all of the sudden.

If you don't like seeing people bash your games believe me, You are not the only one.There are EVE and AO fanboys around here who will eat you alive if you say somethign about either of those games.But That doesn't mean you have to pay attention to what everyone else thinks about the game you play If you enjoy and Have a good time playing it, ignore the Flames.

Hmm what you just said proves that you have bad social skills in real life. Really like I said before...me and most of the people in this topic don't need to find online friends because we can probably get real life friends, it's kind of sad that you get along better with you cyber buddies than with your real life friends. I'm not saying that it's bad to have online friends but it's VERY sad if your online friends mean more to you than your real life friends. I think that if you are into building stuff and creating things you will probably like games like THERE, but you make it sound like it was some sort of religion or something. I'd hate to see what you would do if someone hacked into the game and destroyed everything...you would probably go cry for a few hours and then jump off a bridge right?

Is FanBoy an offical term? It sounds kinda offincive to me. I am very passionate about There and thats all. The fact that There was brought up started to make the hard core members heat up. They bashed There and I had to defend it.
I did not plan for this thread to become a war. I never wanted any of my threads to be like that. I was just showing people the light and spreading the word. I'm sorry if I offended any one. I will keep defending There until no one bashes it.
It highly offends me when There is called a game. It is a metaverse or a Virtual World. There is part of the metaverse conept. A universe that exists within cyber space where you can be and create whatever you wish to create.

You see most of my real life friends are co-workers. I am their boss and am always busy. There is really no time to get close with them you see. Its not my fault they want to play with a dog all day over building a world that you control and own. Really not my fault.

Sounds like somebody needs to go to a bar, not a bar in There, but a real bar. Meet some real people, not online people. Make some friends man, sounds like you seriously have some social issues. No offense but you sound like the kid that got beat up in highschool all the time and have a seriously obsessive personality.
Please please I beg you, open up all of your flaming skills!

You know alot of Therians laugh at you kind of people. The stupid and rude comments just ammuse us. We crack up and I can hardly breath while typing this. I broke out while reading your post, very classic my friend.
I'll meet people where I want and when I want. If I want to meet people in a Virtual World how is it hurting you? What gives you the right to tell me what I should do? I have a very rough life and I need There to just relax and get it off my chest. And thank you!

I have no problem with meeting people online. I have online friends that I play games with and they are considered my "friends", but really man, I'd MUCH rather go to a party, have some drinks with my REAL LIFE friends. If saying "you need to get out of the house" offends you, I really feel sorry for you. I can tell, people like you with their obsessive personalities, OCD weirdos.
I imagine you like that one fat guy with the glasses in "Office Space" who ends up blowing up the office. I truly feel sorry for you, I can tell why you must live a rough life. People must have made fun of you and beat you up all through school. You never got invited to go hang out with friends, you never played anysports, and you never got out of the house.
It's ok man, you can mask all of this in your "virtual world" but the truth is the only way you can change this is to get out of the house and do something. Go to the gym, lift some weights. Try it, it makes you feel GREAT, one of the best highs you can get without the use of drugs. How about surfing? Dropping down into a beautoful perfect 6 foot wall of water as it opens up for you to just let loose and do some big snaps, theres no other feeling like that in the world. Step away from the computer man, real adrenaline and highs are so much better then virtual highs.
You don't need There, you need a psychologist! Seriously Joel, have you considered speaking with a professional? They'll be able to assist you a lot more than a virtual world will.
It's funny how Joel brags and brags about this game being the best game in the world but spends most of his time on these forums. Hmmm,sounds like a fanboi!
He's worst than the WoW fanboi's! Atleast they actually play their game and are ALOT less obsessed with it.
I bet his life is rough(like he says) considering being a single 28 year old virgin(Cybering doesn't count Joel).
I do go to the gym, I lift weights all the time. Been going for 2 years now. I'm not the total looser you think I am. I have a job and real life friends. It is just that I enjoy the company of my online friends. They make me laugh and my real life friends just remind me of my job.
