Should we cancel the froob in 09??

AO is the main topic, but you can also talk about things like the latest console game you've played, web comics, movies, music, etc. as they pertain to your AO experience.

Dont cancel it cause it can cause these probs:

1.FC will lose money

2.It wont be a better than wow

3.People can start making illigeal private servers and this can cause a lot of probs.

I don't understand where the "we" portion of this comes into play. "We", the players, have absolutely no say as to whether or not Funcom keeps or cancels the froob program. Presumably, as long as the advertisements keep rolling in, the Froob program will remain, as these advertisements are a substantial money maker for Funcom.

I hate to say it outright, but not only do I not understand "we". I plain and simple don't understand the entire post. :?

ATTENTION GRABBING QUESTION?!

Post by Reiseiji » Fri Feb 29, 2008 7:00 am

It's simple Uragon, to get attention you need to have a problem, and what bigger problem could there be than the death of AO? And how will AO die? Simple, it will not do whatever it is that WoW is doing, which is clearly the right way to do things, except of course we could play WoW instead of AO if we want WoW, but that would be the easy thing to do.

And since I'm bored, it's time for some dissection! ^^

Not will, can, and being the sole person in charge of the froob program, I'm willing to take the chane that it can't cause these problems. :3
1.FC will lose money
No it won't. I could explain why but I won't.
2.It wont be a better than wow
Yes it will be. WoW doesn't have a froob program, so to be better than WoW, we should do exactly the same thing they do, only, with more stuff! Like... maybe a hero class. Everyone likes hero classes right? No, we won't let you know what the hero class does since we still haven't figured it out, and it'll probably be either game breaking or absolutely useless, and what we really should do is include more than one hero class, but that would be the smart thing to do.

Don't tell anyone but... this game already is illegal. Seriously. You'll start to notice that we kind of borrowed a few ideas from other games when you see the tree elves. And the airships. And the moogles.
