While I was vocal on the WWIIO boards about things, and while I was hammered for doing so, I still don't like to see people become unemployed.
Cabby, your ad hoc attack on the AH community in this case is unmerited. There are people here that do play the other game, have played the other game, and assuming some day it is playable, will play the other game. I played, I found it unsuitable to me, I left. Is that so bad?
Like AKD said, some of us paid money (therefore supported the project) and have a right to our opinions. That said, I don't see anyone clicking their heels in glee that people have lost their jobs.
Step down off the soapbox. I understand the free market society as well as any, and competition is good. I feel options for the consumer are good, too. I didn't find the other sim appealing, and tragically neither did the majority of people who bought the game. And, like AKD, I grew very tired of being told the game was great when it wasn't, and that all the probs were end-user. I do feel sorry for those that are released; I must say however I feel the others will follow shortly. The writing is on the wall.
