I guess he needs something to fall back on when Funcom implodes in the next 6 months. :)

Apparently only 81.3% will. :)

Edit: 81.3% of 0 is what exactly?

Over/under on how long it lasts?

 

Over/under on how many people Lufkin insults before locking it down while insulting the player base  and claiming he has the largest known penis in the world?

Okie, Why did Olav Sandnes not sell his shares a few month ago when they were almost 3x times as valuable when they launch there newest product.

But his management disgusts me. I have never seen a CEO work so hard to sell as many shares as possible this quickly after a financials report. And why sell sooo much??

Be careful when you fight the trolls, lest you become one.

Well, Mythic´s battlecruiser is about to set sail and Blizzards dreadnought is almost complete. You cant go to war with a broken rowboat. Its better to try salvage what you can before it sink.

This whole situation is sad....

You can tell which developers like making games despite huge revenue and who just wants the revenue.

Whats funny is, if you love what you do, and are passionate about it, the money comes. Its amazing, without even looking for it, it'll find you.

If all you do is look for ways to make as much money with the least amount of effort, it won't go well for you in the long run.

At least when it comes to making a game it would seem.

I'd love to hear FC's PR machine spin this one. 

I hope Anarchy Online lives threw this, even though I'll probably never give FunCom another red cent, AO will always be my 1st true love.

I know how you feel my friend. And I was so looking forward to the graphics overhaul. :(

Oh well, hopefully they will release the server tools as open source so the community can run AO servers once Funcom is sunk.

Actually, there could be a numbe of reasons for the drop.  One could be exactly what they claimed.  Honestly, this isn't necessarily an indication that they are bailing out on anything. He sold "not even" 20% of his stocks meanwhile keeping a little over 80% of the stocks in Funcom.

To me, based upon experience, that doesn't really tell you anything other than he did what other CEOs do all the time.  I believe that real lawyers, without a doubt, know this.
