Flagship Studios Going Under 160
Lunatrik writes "In a not entirely unexpected turn of events, Flagship Studios, the producers of the bug-ridden (at release!) game Hellgate: London is going under, as reported by multiple sources. In addition, many current subscribers to the game are finding themselves unable to cancel their subscriptions due to 'technical errors.'"

New York, NY, July 22nd, 2008
In a surprise move, AOL announced today that it has successfully completed acquisition of Flagship Studios. Citing 'synergistic' account-cancellation policies in both companies, an AOL spokesperson verified that customer support services will be switched over immediately in order to preserve the customer base.
When questioned about future support for the Hellgate: London online game, or the takeover of any other facet of the business, the spokesperson replied, "Huh?"

Are you sure that spokesperson wasn't one of the customer service representatives?

Is this a metaphor for Hellgate? The first post is bug-ridden and then you're going to "go under?"

Not really. It's not like you'll get sued for leaving
I think that needs to be put to the test. Sue your guild leader for failed BT runs. I mean you have to repair, and repairing takes gold and gold takes time so you would be out of something tangible. You could claim mental angiush and suffering, hell sue that brat who called ya a nub in trade for libel... Just a coffee over dose induced thought.

ours is a democratic guild in which many properties of democratically run legal social groups exist. there are important functions to perform for running of it. guild is going on since 2003 summer in this fashion, and apparently is going to continue into the future.
sorry, but your understanding of gaming and gaming societies are as shallow as wow.
