I think this is a great thing for them to do since it will bring back some more players, Shame they are not doing it for the euros right now.

Bah! We EU users got a mail that said "Get LOTRO for $9.99 - Anniversary Celebration!‏"

And I felt like; fhuk this! Why does the US player get a free week while us EU player wont. Dosent we all contribute with cash with our subscriptions? Thats not fair and someone should be punished. Then I remember that the world isnt fair and I dont do well in my nerdrage.

Explosions in the sky mofo!

The US and EU gets different offers. We had a welcome back week a couple of months ago.

Atleast we have stable servers in Europe :)

I live in NA, played on the NA servers, and received the $9.99 Anniversary offer in my e-mail yesterday.

Funcom needs to change the /petition command into a general nano called "Summon Personal Jester"
with a 1 hour cast time and 90% fumble rate.

I keep hearing about this cloud computing thing and I bet that's where FC is putting the grahics engine. Right now they're investing in the weather balloon technology to get all the bits of code up there. Helium is expensive so it might take awhile.
