It looks like the new info about the new KOTOR game has brought the fanbois and viral marketers out of the woodwork. SOE and its flunkies are running scared and they have us to thank for it. Keep up the good work! Remember, no matter what they say, that we won and we won big. |

We never doubted that, one way or another, our constant lobbying against SOE for the way it has treated hundreds of thousands of vets, would lead to the demise of NGE SWG. Either SOE will panic and quickly re-introduce pre-CU servers or else Kotor Online will vacuum players away from NGE servers, causing them to wither and die. Either way, it's a victory for the Vet Loyalists! |

I am seriously confused here. What do SWG vets have to do with the fall of the NGE? The Bioware MMO will bring down SWG. And I have a REALLY hard time seeing how you had anything to do with Bioware deciding to make a starwars mmo. |

LOL. Our mass exodus from NGE SWG showed LA in no uncertain terms that SOE was not a viable commercial partner for any next generation-SWG. Then our constant lobbying across all forums and gamesites, ensured that LA would see that in marketing terms SOE was so unpopular that it could never be awarded the licence either. |

The mass exodus due to the NGE, combined with the tenacity of Star Wars fans who stayed even though they hated the NGE, proved th LA that it was worth persuing another SW MMO with another company. That's win-win for the fans. |

What was it that Han said about Luke in return of the jedi....Something about Delusions.... |

You guys act like the new mmo will be out this year. I'd be surprised if you see it in 4 years...when/if Bioware actually confirms it. |

I think he said: 'Like it or not, fanboi, the tsunami of angry but true criticism we vets have poured on SOE will ensure it eventually loses its current SW licence and that all others get awarded to other companies'. |
