to expect majmal or anyone else who works for Turbine to post the absolute truth about upper level Turbine plans and decisions would be foolish.


this type of info typically flows from finance > upper level mgmt > HR > lower level mgmt > employee.  employee rarely has reliable info from further up the chain.

speak for yourself. ddo has not been mentioned in calls though. Turbine pulls in such a small amount(10's of millions) that TW could sneeze them away and 1 bean counter locked in a closet would notice.

God damnit.  Fuck WB.  Fuck WB in the goddamned dickhole with a cowboy boot w/ rusty spurs, AND with DickButt.  At the same time.

This all just makes me really angry.  And those cocksucking weasels just got me with a VIP subscription.  Nice.  Thanks for all of the great communication - great setup.  Assholes.

Maj's first use of naughty talk on the Vault.

They grow up so fast.  Smiley

He's just padding his post count so he'll be able to access the hidden boards.

And doing it in style I might add.

I would expect a major (75% off or more) sale on TP before then.  Turbine has a history of selling anything cheap right before it becomes free/worthless.

which is why I laugh when I read all the bullshit about how WB managers are dictating what gets sold in the DDO store.   they don't even know what a DDO store is.
