kk should hire a new person meanwhile!
Fool me one, shame on me.
Fool me twenty times, shame on you.
That's how it goes, right? :confused:
Even if Kirk has family issues to solve or Black Prophecy requires Kirk's full attention (they making the same mistakes like in Neocron ^^), why doesn´t he delegate this questions-answer-task to someone familiar with Neocron ...like Chenoa.
I guess we are alone
Sure, the team is still there, me 2 :)Quote:

I agree with Powerpunsh. Patience is a virtue after all. Yes we should ideally just wait for another week or so. Give them time. RL comes first remember.
Dont know about you guys but I am having an awesome time in game at the moment.
I think the future of NC is a complex issue because there are many options for it. If these options have to be talked over with Gamigo first it will take even longer to find a solution. There is also a lot of work for BP that has to be done.
Anyway, it would just be nice to hear from time to time that something is happening behind the curtains and that the things are moving forward.
Nice weekend to y'all.
Regardless of the complexities of NC's future, Kirk personally promised us some insights as to what is actually happening with NC. He also promised to address these concerns within a week, it's now been nearly a month, and once again, we are met with utter silence. The whole thing is downright insulting and to add insult to injury Chenoa comes on here with her typical "we're all still here working hard for you guys" speech which we've all heard a million times but which lacks any fruition at all ever. Oh and I'm sure she'll pass the message along to kirk, but guess what, Kirk doesnt need the fucking message passed along HE ALREADY KNOWS IT!Quote:

Yeah, and it's so easy with family matters, a popular MMO to run, a company to look after, friends, having to sleep, do work, do paperwork to respond to something without it taking time, give 'em some time, I'm sure it ain't easy doing Kirk's job.Quote:

As you're full of youthful optimism (which be sure is a noble trait) I think you might not be as disheartened as some other "older" board members in terms of getting fed silence etc. I like your posts personally but I can also sit on the fence on this one as I do see where the criticism is genuinely for good reason.
I am trying to keep the faith myself however. It is waning somewhat though I will admit that.
I agree, as some one who has been playing since beta 4 NC1 and join the forums (On another account that I gave away) in 2004, this does get quite old.Quote:

I hope the communities anger elicits a response or else it's all in vain.
this anger that we have, the NC long time runners, is the result of years of waiting, complaining, arguing, petitioning for at least 3 - 4 years. Still we haven't let this anger and frustration explode because most of us still have a stupid and stubborn hope that KK will do something nice about it someday. I honestly think that a new comer can or would understand this whole mess. Otherwise this community would had be gone a long time ago.
damn now i just noticed that we are indeed a bunch of stupid and stubborn hopeful guys.

That being said don't give up hope, probably quite hard not to but this being one of the best games I've played (and probably THE best MMO), it's certainly not worth just giving up on. :)
simple acknowledgement followed by a short statement which could even be released through a secretary/mod/whoever saying something would be enough to keep the hounds at bay for a little longer. however it cant be some bullshit oh yeah we are looking in to it or what ever. somethin concrete is required. we are past the bullshit.
sometimes i think of the people here that are left are a little crazy. none of us have said ok enough and all of us want it to revive itself. some of us probably even wanna be able to say we helped it. however patience is a resource not everyone has in abundance. im getting fed up of lookin for info and finding nothing.
i think i have more of a chance of scoring with katy perry than coming here and finding a post or two to give us some info.
I've been AWOL since my chat with Kirk and will return when he does as promised.Quote:

Not making excuses for anyone, but Kirk is currently traveling in the USA on business. I know you don't want to hear it, but please indulge me with your patience pretty please?
I know for security reasons you can't tell us too much but is there any estimate of when we might get an update?
I heard that they have the internet in america.... :angel:
I barely have internet where I live...I believe it's an Amish conspiracy!
I will poke some people and see what I can find out :)

They get paid to work on BP. Be thankfull the servers are running. I know this sounds really Fanboi-ish but seriously what else can we do? It's not like we have any rights as paying customers any more.
IF they wanted to turn off the servers tomorrow technically they could. IF they wanted to ban us all and close down the game then they could do that too. Im against the iron-fisted authoritarian corporations as the next free thinker but lets be fair here they hold all the cards.
The only way we will get any reply is by being pleasant, patient and calm. If we get pissy they could just say "crack on son, don't let the door hit you on the way out" and then where would be?

:D
no, it was a personal promise from him to the people who were willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, and he just dismissed that willingness.
Keeping the servers up, working on nc in their free time by the developers is great, but is irrelevant to this complete disregard towards us by Kirk personally. Basic interpersonal courtesy is something I feel I could expect of someone who makes a promise from himself personally. (Kirk towards us personally, not KK as a whole, otherwise his mentioning of personal things keeping him from answering would be irrelevant)
