Alas, no, except in that we need a MUCH higher level of visibility than we have. I don't think it's out of the question to actually get it, but the odds are not in our favor, and NCSoft would have to be caught doing something seriously illegal.
I'm not so sure. Sometimes being caught doing something unethical that is legal but stinks, is worse than being caught and punished for something illegal. With an illegal act, we kind of believe the courts and system will deal with it. With something unethical and stinky that a company can expect to get away with, we all know it is up to
us to bring about a change, and to make the transition from what is legal, to what is just.
In addition to that, suspicion and rumour are often worse left unaddressed than an actual guilty verdict. A widespread suspicion is far more damaging than a legal judgement which people can believe has settled the matter.
At this time, the main suspicions we have are several:
1. That NCsoft are
not serving customer interests at all as they should (the most successful game ever closed) where the game was not making a loss and the motive is believed to be for more profit - forcing players to have to buy another game of some kind that they can make more money on, even though it is not a comparable product. (Minor, but still somewhat disgusting and questionable and worthy of debate).
2. That NCsoft are failing to do their jobs properly in serving shareholder interests, causing masses of expensive negative opinion that was unnecessary and thoughtless, and flat out incompetent. More importantly, once it becomes apparent that closing CoH is more expensive than they'd believed, not changing their business plans to adapt out of pride, or stubbornness would be a
failure of legal responsibility to look after shareholder interests.
3. That NCsoft are a company committed (and convicted of) continued use of deception and outright lies to promote their business interests. Not just spin, but the claims that Garriott had resigned, for instance, or that they had "exhausted all possibilities" to find alternative solutions to closing Paragon and CoH with the minimum possible notice, are both outright lies. False claims made for profit. False advertising, false marketing, and deceptive business practices are something we know are not technically legal, but that we all know happen often. Have NCsoft actually crossed a line with just how far they have gone? Well, in the Garriott case, yes, without doubt. In the CoH case ... we can't know without knowing just how much money their lies are enabling. I think we have enough suspicion here to demand an investigation, at least.
These are just 3 obvious causes of suspicion and distrust, but all three are valid, and each feeds the other. I'm certain if we were to dig we would find out more.
