Some people doesn't seem to understand that LOADS of people are not prepared to pay for a online browser based strategy game. It's not even about the amount of money (untill a certain point) a game cost. You just have people who are willing to pay for a game and you've got people who just aren't. Most people who are willing to pay for a game on the internet know that there's a lot more interesting stuff to do.

Which reminds me, why the hell is Planetarion still p2p? If i recall, the entire reason it went to that was because the size of the playerbase had gotten to the point that the add revenue couldnt pay for all the required hardware and the full time staff needed to watch over 100k accounts or whatever it was.
Kind of a joke now.

Re: I Signed Up
Planetarion is still pay-to-play due to jolt being a company who obviously wish to turn a profit, as opposed to the other pa clones which are run mostly by individuals.

Yes, Cat had terminal cancer the whole time but she never advertised it (actually, she'd probably be mad knowing I'm talking about it now as she never wanted the attention but I've been quiet long enough dammit!). She finally succumbed last year after refusing treatment and doing a bit of travelling.
And hicks, yes she was. I could go on forever about how integral she was to everything we did and how special she was to many of us. She's the only player I knew that was harder on herself than any of us could have dreamed, stayed up after a long battle so the rest of the gal could sleep, took the worst targets to the "best" players could get something, and never let this damn game take priority over her friendships yet never violating the trust people placed in her.

Thru all those in gal squabbles and arguements Cat was 1 of the steady presences that always kept us from really blowing up. sigh, Cat was terrific..... i was quietly informed of her passing a few weeks after it happened. The only comfort i get is that knowing shes not suffering anymore with the pain and such. Shes in a better place.
