Wondering if the fact this is on the goon news site may have any negative impact on the journalistic integrity of the article. Well atleast it's not just more nullsec crap.

It must be a real struggle to keep people interested and there's only soo many time-sinks a person is willing to go through. Fortunately I don't think the majority of the gaming community is that "hardcore".

Well atleast it's not just more nullsec crap. GǪthen again, Smedley was in CFC. That would also explain the Gǣindustry connectionGǥ.  Ah well now it makes sense, unfortunately I think this information may influence my perspective towards SOE just a bit.

It certainly improved my perception of him (and SOE), which has always been a bit on the grumpy side ever since the abandonment of Planetside (oh, and SWG, I suppose, although I never played it). If he has come to understand the value of community, then yay.
Yeah but look at the community he's come to understand that value in...

One that has fun playing games together rather than getting their panties in a twist over every little thing. Excellent choice, I must say.

They have/had good games but they are professionals in alienating their costumer base away. Case in point

Honestly I'm surprised that doesn't happen on a weekly basis in this community.
