Our servers are currently being hacked by hundreds of people, we have been having power problems within our office areas for the past 5 days, that will be in next month, the release date IS IN APRIL thats ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW, BETA WILL BE BACK.
they are fools and DNL sucks nuff said, their mmorpg has shit the bed in everyway and come release the fanboys will cry.
Comments
the fanboys all think that people are itching to get their hands on DnL
They don't understand that anyone who hasn't already purchased DnL won't touch the game with a 30 foot pole without some reputable game review
Some people think there is going to be a completely different game come release. But I seriously don't see that happeneing. Why would a company with resources that limited piss around with a far inferior version of their own game? All the while getting bad press about it. Makes no sense to me. If it really is part of the evil plan they should fire their marketing department, because they've scared too many people away.
I miss DAoC
hmmm, to me, its a toss-up. A tie. sure, ppl bought it, i did and still have it but how many refunded and caused refund charges that farlan had to pay? when you use a third party processor, there are charges for every single transaction, including a refund charge, So not only did thousands refund, they had to pay each of those thousands of refund charges to c&b. They still made a little money, but hardly anything to cover and keep them going. so they came back with a $40 pkg. People still refunding tho.....

(...)Farlan keeps saying "at a later date", to get past what some are saying is a probationary period (which doesnt exist in US purchases) of 90 days , I could, altho LOL obviously i wouldnt, but I could still request and receive a refund.
Farlas words on restricted refunds are just fantasies, law is always above written contracts & that means the major card companys (VISA/Mastercard/e.t.c) will give a refund/reverse charges.
Does anyone know where Farlan is registered?
(Because if its a country in the EU they will get into trouble because the limitation/refusal on refunds is against EU-law).
LOL apparently their is NO bottom line to thier own stupidity! They have even sent SOG screenshots for the mmorpg.com DNL screenshot review!!!!
but but but .....SOG is NOT DNL!
DNL is completely different than SOG!
DNL is better than SOG, what? are you all that stupid? Why do you insist on saying that SOG=DNL?
We send you SOG screenshots for the DNL screenshot review because,...because...because SOG is NOT DNL!!!
The myth that Dark and Light has been developed by twenty frenchmen since 1999 is false. It started that way, but since then it has been bought up by some Origin-refugees backed up by 200 Japanese coders, fifty German professors in cognition in charge of AI five lorewriters working together with five concept artists. They are coupled as follows:
Gary Gygax is teamed up with John Bauer, Dan Brown is teamed up with John Langdon, John Robert Reuel Tolkien will be working with John Blanche, Herman Melville will be working on quests along with artist John Davis and Siddharta Gautama will design a pantheon with illustrations by John the Baptist.
There is support for Bino and Cool's VR-cube, but Ken Kutaragi has also implemented support for TrackIR, head-mounted monitors, control gloves and force feedback vests, so get ready for the VR-experience of a lifetime!
ohhhhhh yummy cant wait!!!!
still think the thread with this video shows what the DNL team is all about:

Actually it's a 3.5 going onto 4 year project, started in mid 02
But I agree that Farlan must be real idiots to just stop at 0.5 million, if all they intended was to make a lot of money.
Farlan formed and announced the game in the summer of 2002. We can only speculate when development started. Most games start their development 1-2 years prior to announcing the game and forming a development company. Given that the first official release date was scheduled for December of 2002 its most like development was strated in 1999 or 2000.
Most likely it has been in development 6-7 years despite what the fanboys might say. But regardless of how long the game has been in development what is most remarkable is the utter lack of work that has been done. This game is no closer to a stable release with limited content now than it was when Beta started 3 years ago.
Wellll lesseee, how much dumber??
One week till release and still no info whatsoever.
One week till release and no confirmation of closing SOG and opening of DNL.
One week till release and no confirmation of exactly who (pioneers and preebies) gets the 2 day jump (like THATS gonna happen LOL)
One week and still no class skills as promised weeks ago
One week and man alive, I hope my bulk popcorn and sodas get here in time.
Cant get as dumb as people who dont even care about it and still regulary check out offical page for info and moreover troll about it on other forums.

I think we have quite a different opinion of the word troll. NPC Farlan and your definition seems to be ayone that talks negatively about DnL is a troll. Most peoples definition is someone who posts without substance, reasoning, logic or who engages in personal attacks. Like most fanboys your last post comes under the generally accepted definition of trolling.
The fanboys here and on the official forums are the only ones who are trolls. They do not want to discuss the game as they cannot make any substantive or logical arguments to support thier opinion that the game is any good. Rather they just resort to insults, name calling, blind faith and telling fans to love it or leave it. The critics here are the only ones that engage in discussion. They are the only ones that support conclusions, with facts, citations, analysis, logic and comparisons to other games. The critics here have continously recorded and documented Farlans lies and failures. They have accurately predicted all of DnL's failures despite all the juvenile and repetitive insults, name calling and pesonal attacks by fanboys. They do this without the need to personally attack or insult others which seems to be a prerequisite to being a fanboy.
The sad thing is the critics are for the most part are fans of what DnL could have been. Like myself most of the critics or realists have been following DnL for 2-4 years generally much longer than the fanboys. Because they disagree with your opinions they should get lost and they should not be allowed to post? Only positive glowing if not unrealstic posts should be allowed? Only people who are wise enough to share your opinion should be allowed to post? In fact these people should not even be allowed to check the official web site or even follow the game at all anymore? That appears to be what your saying.
I don't mean anything personal. I have noticed that for the most part you have posted here in a somewhat neutral tone for a fanboy. But your recent posts seem to have displed a lot of hostility or maybe you have somehow been effected by the anger and hatred the fanboys show to disbelievers on the official forum.
In conclusion your comment above added nothing to the discussion and continued your recent trend of attacking and insulting other posters here. In other words your post falls within the generally accepted defintion of trolling.
Edit: I just read through your recent 5 or so post spree. Where you have called other people trolls, attacked the forums, attacked other members here and you have said you intend to change your posting style to be more belligerent and attacking. I can only assume that since you have nothing you can add to the discussion or have no way to support any arguments you make that DnL is good that you have changed your intentions to derail every thread so there is no discussion. You are attemtping to flame bait every thread to muddy up the forums so people will not be able to read the truth about DnL prior to release. Farlan couldn't ask for any greater dedication and effort from one of its servants.
