I guess Marco needs to explain this and what he told to the reporter.

/Kjetil

I blame the reporter. ,-)

Maybe the novel concept of PE was a bit to much to grasp at once. Participant-owned land areas have taxes. MA does not have any taxes. I said we (MA) used various means of digital communication with the community, such as forums, email, support section, etc. This was truncated into " our forum".

I guess this means that we will have to believe you . I liked the article at least, more exposure yields more people .

Keep up the good work.

Are some people really shocked that a newspaper would make things up to beef up thier article. Newspapers will always embelish the facts and cut corners. I don't think anyone would want to actually read how MA communicate, it was just easier for the writer to say what he said without going to great lengths to explain things.

On the point of whether its the greatest MMORPG. Well to be honest, if it was'nt, wouldnt we all be playing something else. I for one, like many here, have played a good few, and PE beats em all hands down. I'm in with Hooters the exposure is great for all players, well apart from the few that 'don't like no strangers round ere'.

Note to Marco: Smile next time (me thinks Marco unhappy after having to return to work from his hols).

I was troubled when I saw people offering sweat for 3 pec per bottle, but now theres people shouting out that they're BUYING sweat at 3.6-3.7 pec per bottle... wow.

I'm just thinking of sweathogs now.... Did they keep some of their sweat stockpile, and can now slowly sell off that 100k bottles that was rumoured to be in their possession at a very high price??

I have 2 brothers who both stopped playing a little while ago... neither have reached their sweat cap.... so perhaps I'll persuade them to log in for me so I can do some sweating....

Thats what I am talking about! Lets hit the east asia, india and chinese markets and get some new players. BUYING Sweat 1.1 @ TP

Some radio station in Australia had a competition. The listener who could get the best publicity won tickets to a concert. So people were running nude on the rugby field with the stations name on thier back side for publicity.

I am not saying that we all run nude through town with PE written on each a bum cheek, but I think some of us players are in great places to also publicise PE and help get more players interested.

PE needs as much publicity as it can get. I am one of the biggest fans and love the game. MA does some stupid things and lacks a good dialogue with the players but that is no reason to fault them over a few minor things in an article. Grats on getting a mention in the media. Lets hope you can do it bigger and better next time and some players even get some publicity for PE.

Now go spend your time better than telling others what to do, if you think theres a beautiful world outside go enjoy it instead of trying to piss off other that you think dont share your view on things
