Should EA open their own UO boards?

**Adam** · 15th October 2007, 04:03 PM

I'm curious, what do you guys think about the subject of having Official UO boards?

**Tabbitha** · 15th October 2007, 04:06 PM

Hmmmmmm they cant even keep UOHerald updated when the workload is heavy.

I think if they had their own official forums,it would need extra personnel to man it.

Other wise the load would just be passed onto an already very busy person from EA.

just my take

Seriously a tough call. I voted other. I just don't see them doling out the resources to do it right. And if it can't be done right, then the worst thing would to be opening up a forum.

If they did, I'd become very political and campaign that it should be paying customers only.

I voted yes, but I know it's never going to happen, at least from previous discussions with Jeremy.
I was just curious what people thought.

I agree with Adam. It would be good if done right, but it's not going to happen.

I agree with Silverfoot, if done it should be tied to player accounts.

Yes, but everyone made valid points so far.

Paying customers only.
Done right and manned properly.

I voted yes, it would be nice to have a place where we can talk with the devs on their own forums.
