Oh fuck off Ash, it got shuttered because it had been forced into maintenance mode with very sloppy end-line blunt force coding choices that unintentionally dead ended any chance bring it back in the future. That mistake trapped it in Maintenance mode and made it next to impossible to grow or retain as a revenue stream by Turbine or anyone else. And who was "in-charge" of that fiasco? Severlin, the same clueless wonder who squirmed his way into the SSG lifeboat, the same guy who went on the record 13 times saying that a private server or some other legacy plan for AC players would be made available down the track, Granted he said that just to quiet the mobs back when he was fucking it up but he promised it none the less. He avoided going back to the AC forums like the plague since the announcements and ignored all those poor saps who had believed him and were making post asking how to get that server set up.
So yeah Ash, AC does have a bearing on what is likely to happen to DDO and LOTR going forward because past actions, failures and tactics bear on future moves and decisions when they involve the same people and similar situations. But I guess you're are still too much of a sniveling shill to admit it.
You fucking turd.
Wow. Look at Grand getting his panties in a bunch. Calm down, son. Your pathological, disturbing, borderline homo-erotic obsession with Sev is approaching jilted lover level. (You seem on the edge of creating a fake Sev facebook account and stalking yourself and reporting him to the police for harrassment. Like this chick:

Or maybe it's seeing the grandpa playing a Turbine video game that has you all worked up...who knows.
I agree with you the fact that Turbine chose not to do private servers at shutdown would suggest that DDO will also never see private servers either. I also agree with you that posting styles on the forums by individuals probably will be consistent and not change.
But that wasn't what DDOCrackhead and I were debating. We were talking about whether Turbine's decision to shutter AC would be indicative of how quickly SSG would shutter DDO. Because Turbine (a division of WB) and SSG (an indie gaming studio) are not "similar situations". Not even close.
You don't seem very knowledgeable about business, though. You seem more "worker bee". Probably along the lines of Milton in office space. Did someone take your Red Swingline stapler? Is that why you are so upset?
