Player: So this can only prove that EA are trying to gouge us from whatever scraps UO has to offer.

EA is only going to continue UO as long as it is profitable. The moment that UO stops being profitable, I think that you can kiss it goodbye. So, I support anything that keeps the money coming in.

Sure Wilki and them are trying and my issue isnt with them... It is with the morons up above them that do not know how to market their product.

Player: lol, you DO realize the person who marketed ML was Darkscribe, the current UO Producer, right?

CatHat: Yeah - but Darkscribe did such a good job at getting ML out here and in Japan in sales, that he's, 'the boss' now. Not only that, but most importatly he got the interest of EA's suits so they'd bring UO the support it needs and really deserves..

Trust me when i say you should be very happy the guy is at the helm. Given some time and history - I think you guys will get to appreciate him a lot. His head and heart are in the right place.

I will give a fair chance, that's for sure....but I sure miss Sunsword!

I will also give im a fair chance. Hopefully by the time I come back to UO, no real major changes have occured. Would love to be able to follow the line of Darkscribes additions etc.

I miss the old crew also.. but I also think that newly promoted and newly hired are doing a great job for what its worth

DarkScribe hasn't screwed up anything so far as I can tell, so he's OK in my book! What I'm mostly hoping for is honesty and integrity, I'm not expecting him to fix everything in a month. Just not to try and smokescreen us with big promises or outright lies.

Lay it out like it is, we can take it.
