Talking about Amon posting at RR? Dang Dozer, you are grasping for straws. Should we go back over your old postings from VN and everywhere else you sprout up to quote your own words saying that the Horizons Devs should listen to those who left and not the "blind sheep" on the community forums?
Yet when Amon does go out to talk to those who left you try to use it as a sign of how bad things are.
Tell me Dozer, how much do you get paid to troll the boards? is it by the post or by the word? Does it supplement your Social Security well enough?

This is where we differ, I do not look at Amon going on rants board to talk about game. But to attempt to get more people back in game. You wil notice the important questions over there he ignores and then used the excuse how he has to think about some of the posts there. Man can't you guys even notice the spin going on. Read what Grim posted on VN boards about this new engine and you may see it isn't only me that feels it is all spin to get players back. Problem will be in long run if players do return they will leave just as fast. mark my words. The game is dead and the low pops verify it.
I still say TulgAE show us the money. But from Jan. 25, 2005 to now is not that long from the buy out (or the company shuffle) and I still say they are only barely running on the money from Baker. They just do not have enough pops to make any kind of profit yet. Which explains why Tango has been put on hold with his work.
Don't forget they already pulled the merge and had only two servers and were still losing a little over 100k a month at end of Chapter 11.

Hehe - you've been predicting the end of the game for ages, and it's still here. Server population means nothing; it's subscriber numbers that matter, and subscriber numbers are on the rise. I know this because I watch for new players and help out when I can by answering questions and making tools for them. Then I keep watching to see if they keep playing past the first week. I pay attention, in short, to churn. For a while, we would see two or three new players a week. Now we get that many or more per day, easily. Not everyone converts, of course, but that's normal for MMOs.
If the subscriber base wasn't growing, I wouldn't be spending so much time making bronze tools and cargo disks.
Yep the game is getting better, billing problems at the start and billing problems still going on. Here is a post in reply to Amon. Funny why is it I don't believe what Amon says now.

He went in to the chatroom repeatedly on Saturday and was ignored. You told him you'd get him in and you needed to talk to a supervisor (who checked his email often).That is the last he heard from anyone via chatroom or email. He is upset. He's had the game since premerge. He was sick and stuck at home and couldn't even play the game and kept getting the runaroun from hiss cc company, ipay and you guys. I think most people in the same situation would be upset as he is.

Go on put a spin on this too I really am starting to enjoy your spins.
Isn't it funny how ibill and ipay act just about the same.
Let us also not forget this game is still running on Bakers money, when it runs out I hope you find a real game to play.
