....I'm sorry, adding a little vanilla to the New Coke isn't going to make me any more inclined to drink it. IT'S THE SAME NASTY CRAP.

Jestor's been predicting the imminent shutdown of SWG for three years now. And every time the date of his "prediction" passes, he just makes another one, as if the previous one never happened.



After six months of NGE I was amazed at the fact of the game still not shutting down. Now it seems to me a joke that the game is still live..
I know nothing about business models  or strategies or marketing but the first day I read what NGE was going to be I was sure SOE should send their suits to business night classes. it has been and will be an example of what you never have to do. 
it was a sinking ship since 2005-11-15.
SOE has not  offered classics or rolled back in its moment  just cause of PROUD.
So it is normal that Jestor ,me and other people give dates above shutting cause it is a real joke that it is still live.
 
 


It could be a loss leader -- a product that gets people in the door. Star Wars sells -- that much is certain. People try the game out because it's Star Wars -- then SONY Viral marketers spread the line that EQ2 is a much better game, and the only reason the game is bad is LA "forced the NGE." People then try EQ2 and find that it IS a much better game, so they start playing that one.

 

It might be worth keeping afloat for that reason alone. Plus they actualy soend so little on it, it might just clear a small profit.

 

The problem with that theory is that SWG is no longer in box/CD production.  It has been almost two years since a boxed version of the game was produced for retail (the 'Complete' collection).  There is a trial version of the game in the Best of Star Wars box ('Five of the best Star Wars games!  Oh, and a trial of SWG too...'  It really does say basically that on the back of the box), but LEC wasn't even able to sell the 50K run of the Complete box, so they obviously feel the game has no retail value.

The reason you keep seeing people making these claims is probably because of it's plasuability.

If it's so plausible, how come it hasn't happened yet? You're grasping at straws here.
 

So I started to walk into the water. I won't lie to you boys...I was terrified. But I pressed on, and as I made my way past the breakers, a strange calm came over me. I don't know if it was divine intervention or the kinship of all living things, but I tell you, Jerry, at that moment ... I was a marine biologist.

Plausible essentially means it's possible and believable - which of course it is. It then becomes an issue of likelihood which is not what I said here at all.

You're putting words into my mouth.

Fair enough.
 

BTW (not directed at you, Suvroc), I've noticed that at least two of my posts in this thread have been reported. I'd love to know on what grounds.

No, it's not normal. In fact, it surprises me that people continue to do it, since you'd think that constantly saying "THIS IS IT! THREE MONTHS TO SHUTDOWN!" for three years would pretty much nuke anyone's credibility straight to hell.

Not here, though. Here, such klaxon-like alarm is embraced, even celebrated, since the blind hatred of the game and the lack of respect for those that still play it trump any sense of self-restraint. And, eventually, when the gates do close, Jestor and his "Love that Jestor" sycophants will say "See! Just as Jestor predicted!" -- completely ignoring the fact that he's been dead wrong for three years and will continue to be dead wrong until the day that, by complete coincidence, he happens to be right.

Of course, nobody here has a crystal ball.

When I see a date about the end of the game, I just think  ' I wish';    (usually these dates come after some news related to game)

I dont consider dates as 'predictions' but as a fact that people is still amazed  that this joke of version of the game is still live. Thats why we see so many dates.

 

    You are wrong , I have two crystal balls and I intend on squeezing them with the same force that the girlyboys over at SOE did on 1/9/05.  If you don't approve of my methods then blame SOE. 

 As for my Predictions,  lets just say that everything happens for a reason . If you are looking for clues to that reason you will enjoy my Pre Dragon Con Rodo Report.

"Blame SOE"? Did them banning you (for whatever reason) somehow transform you into the Joker, much like Jack Napier's fall into a vat of acid did the same in the late-80s Batman film? Um ... no. Your crusade is yours alone, and your methods are yours alone. SOE did not make you do it, you did.

The second paragraph makes no sense.

  for whatever reason? You my friend , post without the full story. You need to inform yourself before commenting about yours truly for if you did the second paragraph would make sense. But Alas you are like SOE  - jumping to conclusions without getting the full story.

 Its no wonder you are a fanboi.

I don't march in lockstep with you and the people here about every single thing, so I'm a "fanboi." Awesome.

I post without the full story? I know the full story quite well. You got banned and got all butthurt about it. That's the story.

you are the only person here who thinks jestor is on a "crusade". those of us with a sense of humor are able to look back on the travesty that is swg/soe and laugh. what makes no sense is your constant attacks

against jestor and other vets. we are here to remember the game that was and blow off steam....you seem obsessed with deriding anyone who posts derogatory comments about  soe/swg. that's why everyone calls you a fanboi. and as far as "marching in lockstep".....um....yeah. you sure are fond of that term. nobody here marches. there is no former player organization dedicated to ending swg. get over the hate man.

I do?

No, I deride people who post derogatory comments about the CURRENT PLAYERS, and those who make outlandish comments, "predictions" and "estimates" on subscription numbers. And actually, Jestor is the first person in a long time to actually drop the "fanboi" bomb on me. Most people who actually READ what I post and can see why I post it do not. Thanks for playing, enjoy your parting gifts.

"Blame SOE"? Did them banning you (for whatever reason) somehow transform you into the Joker, much like Jack Napier's fall into a vat of acid did the same in the late-80s Batman film? Um ... no. Your crusade is yours alone, and your methods are yours alone. SOE did not make you do it, you did.

The second paragraph makes no sense.

 

you are the only person here who thinks jestor is on a "crusade". those of us with a sense of humor are able to look back on the travesty that is swg/soe and laugh. what makes no sense is your constant attacks

against jestor and other vets. we are here to remember the game that was and blow off steam....you seem obsessed with deriding anyone who posts derogatory comments about  soe/swg. that's why everyone calls you a fanboi. and as far as "marching in lockstep".....um....yeah. you sure are fond of that term. nobody here marches. there is no former player organization dedicated to ending swg. get over the hate man. 

 

  I agree . in other words  - Why So(e) Serious?

Jestor's been predicting the imminent shutdown of SWG for three years now. And every time the date of his "prediction" passes, he just makes another one, as if the previous one never happened.

After six months of NGE I was amazed at the fact of the game still not shutting down. Now it seems to me a joke that the game is still live..

I know nothing about business models  or strategies or marketing but the first day I read what NGE was going to be I was sure SOE should send their suits to business night classes. it has been and will be an example of what you never have to do. 

it was a sinking ship since 2005-11-15.

SOE has not  offered classics or rolled back in its moment  just cause of PROUD.

So it is normal that Jestor ,me and other people give dates above shutting cause it is a real joke that it is still live.

 

 


 

No, it's not normal. In fact, it surprises me that people continue to do it, since you'd think that constantly saying "THIS IS IT! THREE MONTHS TO SHUTDOWN!" for three years would pretty much nuke anyone's credibility straight to hell.

Not here, though. Here, such klaxon-like alarm is embraced, even celebrated, since the blind hatred of the game and the lack of respect for those that still play it trump any sense of self-restraint. And, eventually, when the gates do close, Jestor and his "Love that Jestor" sycophants will say "See! Just as Jestor predicted!" -- completely ignoring the fact that he's been dead wrong for three years and will continue to be dead wrong until the day that, by complete coincidence, he happens to be right.

Of course, nobody here has a crystal ball.

When I see a date about the end of the game, I just think  ' I wish';    (usually these dates come after some news related to game)

I dont consider dates as 'predictions' but as a fact that people is still amazed  that this joke of version of the game is still live. Thats why we see so many dates.

I do?

No, I deride people who post derogatory comments about the CURRENT PLAYERS, and those who make outlandish comments, "predictions" and "estimates" on subscription numbers. And actually, Jestor is the first person in a long time to actually drop the "fanboi" bomb on me. Most people who actually READ what I post and can see why I post it do not. Thanks for playing, enjoy your parting gifts.

lol the only parting gifts from soe is a swift kick in the ass. as far as making comments about the current players.... so what?  are you the  self-appointed defender of  those who enjoy crappy games/companies?

says a lot that you spend more time here attacking us than playing the game. or perhaps you are using the in game browser to do it? as far as reading your posts....it's the same thing over and over.

at least we have fun deriding the game. why you come to the vet REFUGE and attack us only you can say. and buddy while you talk a lot you don't really say much. i guess it's because we don't MARCH IN LOCKSTEP  and play a crappy game.

I spend more time there "attacking you" than playing the game? And how, exactly, would you know that, since you don't play the game?

So I started to walk into the water. I won't lie to you boys...I was terrified. But I pressed on, and as I made my way past the breakers, a strange calm came over me. I don't know if it was divine intervention or the kinship of all living things, but I tell you, Jerry, at that moment ... I was a marine biologist.
