Lots of "interesting" stuff here.

We were promised figures. Is there a chance these figures will come to light?

In conclusion: Your post did not give us the answers we were seeking. Please try again.
No one was promised figures. They promised that "To that end, we will look into this matter further, and will update you, with as much detail as we can reasonably provide. We hope each and every one of you will review the data and feel free to draw your own conclusions." Big difference.
What I'm seeing is a lot of people believing only what they want to, which is information that was provided with a slant, bias, and twisting of the facts based on what I've been able to put together.

Same. Exact. Story.
No offense, but you guys didn't convince us the first time, in AtA. I'm not seeing anything new in this post. All we want is to be treated like adults and
given the whole truth. Not threads full of weasel words meant to placate and/or confuse us. >_<
Also, why was swarf's thread locked?

I am continuing to withhold any and all money I would have spent on this website until we get some REAL answers. Quit feeding us this garbage, Gaia. It's not funny.

I don't believe it. I believe he is being intimidated into backpedaling just enough so that he can't be said to be going against the administration. And I believe that he did not put his own name on that post, at least not of his own free will.

Wish I could believe you, buddy. You have no idea. You understand why I can't though.
All of those quotes show that the general attitude is "I will only believe what corroborates what I want to hear". If that's the case, why are you even reading this thread? You don't want to hear the truth, you want to hear "Swarf is a good boy, we were wrong, yes, we've been lying to you. We're going to give him a promotion and give you all free summons".

im ok with the decision and announcement. as long as they dont delete zomg entirely and I can still play,it's all good
cool
Dear, that's not at all why we're upset. We're mad because of the possibility we have been
lied to:
Or maybe swarf was the one
misrepresenting the facts. Or just start reading from
this post. It's pretty obvious that no, zOMG is NOT an overall profitable product. It may have actually broken a profit for the first time in 2011, but you're forgetting the multiple years before that. A quarter million dollars in 2011 isn't a patch on 4-5 million dollars in production costs and stuff, and that figure of bron's is more like 1 or 2 years old, so it doesn't factor in upkeep costs since.
So really people, please stop acting as if there was only the gospel truth from swarf, and only poisonous lies from the other HQ staff. No one was completely forthcoming, and emotion obviously tainted the "facts" that started this whole fiasco.
