Okay... I posted about this just last night. We have "ongoing negotiations" that are fragile. If we cross the Rubicon and start really hurting NC-Soft's reputation, it will seal City of Heroes' fate.
Believe me, I loathe NC-Soft too. I'm so mad I could spit venom. I'm just itching for us to say our fill and get it translated into Korean. Heck, I was mad the day Jack Emmert announced City of Heroes was sold overseas in the first place.
Rant here, you are warned. We likely wouldn't be in this fix if this was a Western company that gave a rat's about keeping Western customers or obeying Western business laws and practices, and to heck with all of you who think that's racist. Saying, "we wanna focus our business in our home country, don't let the door hit you on the way out, Joe. Oh, and thanks for buying Nature Mastery three days before we kicked you out..." that is racism in action! (Having said that, I've been to Korea and everyone I met there was way cool, so call off the P.C. dogs.)
There. I feel a little better now. Anyway, this is a decision that V V and Tony need to make, not us.
Let's keep it together, people.
