    I love this new turn of events, it just makes me lawl at how one of their major points of contention with the interview was the insinuation that Dave is a smut peddler. How ironic.

    PS. Ego honestly no one gives a crap about the news you are going to release anymore.

    There is nudity on that front page. About halfway down is the flash of several naked women. You need to look harder

    It is a violation of US law because you must place a warning stating you must be 18 years old or older to enter the site. A site to further explain this is located at http://gsulaw.gsu.edu/lawand/papers/fa01/caldwell/


    I was under the impression Mourning was being produced in Romania, and hence it would be unlikely the server is located in the US anyway.

    Dave, the money backer of this "game" lives in Connecticut, and the server is housed in Florida....

    I always wonder what everyone looks like, especially you, Pirrg. I keep imagining a cross between the chef from The Muppet Show and Eddie Gustafsson. It makes me nervous and confused. ::::35::

    I kind of doubt that your image of Dave the Lousy Publisher is accurate. I'm betting he's a full grown wanker with loads of experience in bad business practices and he looks exactly like Martin Short as Ed Grimley.

    Hi,
    From what I know Dave sold those domains and the only valid domain for the game is www.ageofmourning.com .
    Also stay tuned - there may be some news during the next 2-4 weeks ;).

    Haha.. i think ill have to photoshop those two together just to see how it looks. The mental image of the chef and eddie gustafson merged into a single entity is far too complex for my imagination. ::::02::

    And on the point about dave, yeah you're probably right. Seems the mmo market draws all sorts of dysfunctional asshats, be it players or developers.

    My God, it's the thread that will not die.  Someone drive a stake in it's heart, cut off it's head, and bury the pieces on both sides of a river.

    Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
    Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
    Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.

    IT LIVES AGAIN!!!


    http://www.realmsoftorment.net/forums

    and they are still in denial- from the dev "Cryptkeeper"

    "That is funny. Nothing anyone says , will say or will do can hurt us or any game for that matter.
    Games stand and fall based on what they end up becoming at launch. Not because of bad press or people sitting around gaming forums all day long talking about this and that.

    People who play these games love sitting around talking **** about everything. It's like their hobby. But those same people usually end up playing the same games they put down in the end.

    This project has had no press at all compared to other projects.
    There was never any paid marketing done.
    It only took a handful of orders before the orders were stopped.

    When completed and promoted this project would be looked on as being brand new to 90% of all mainstream mmo players."

  • spookytoothspookytooth Member Posts: 508

    Astounding...

    These characters realy think they can give it a second try and suceed. And what the players/gaming-community-in-general has to say is irrelevant...

    These guys should get together with the SWG devs and go bowling some time.

    Astounding is quite the appropriate word.

    This from a guy, Porno Dave, who's entire life is devoted to (aside from Pr0n, obviously) making up aliases just to go to various web sites and bad mouth games he deems competitors.

    This guy needs to be a case study in a psych lab somewhere. Denial, delusional, paranoid schizophrenic. Wow, just wow.

  • Zeed006Zeed006 Member Posts: 38

    Wow just wow....my eyes were burning after the 10th page....good read....boo-urns to the fanbois who got burned by this game.

    Truly an epic thread.

    /bump to the top

    The world is not out to get you Mr. Casual. Stop working in RL and put some hours in the game like the rest of us. What's that? Your time in RL is more VALUABLE. Nuff Said.

    This thread is a mmorpg.com classic.  If we had a hall of fame for threads here, this would be in it.

    Why is registeration still disabled? There about 10 members left that haven't been banned that use the forums. Hopeful Signe and BigFoot know they are going to get banned for questioning porno dave.

  • PB&JPB&J Member Posts: 255

    I cannot tell you how funny I think the name "Porno Dave" is and how I chuckle a bit every time I read it.

    Oh well, if I get banned, I get banned. He didn't ban me yet, that I know of... although I only remember to check that site when someone brings up the name. I don't think I'll lose any sleep over it. It's a game board on the internet... it's all about discussion and debate. I don't generally troll or spew insults on boards like that... I save that sort of behaviour for good friends. ::::18:: If Porno Dave doesn't like people questioning him, he should become the dictator of a small third world island nation and keep off the internet.

    http://www.ageofmourning.com/ still seems to be alive... at least for now. From what I understand, it disappears every now and then.
