SSG realized that they could make some extra money with store purchases and get some extra VIP subscriptions with very little upfront effort.

Winner!!!!


All this talk about testing server limits is baloney. If they truly wanted to test server stability they would have opened it up for both premium and f2p folks too. This is just a weak attempt at them trying to capitalize on the success of the LotRO Legendary Server.

DDO is still the old fat wife I have at home who I can't fucking stand, but we've been together so long I can't see myself leaving.

Do try to keep up.
  

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
