For what it's worth, I don't think the game is in any serious trouble. Unlike many MMO studios, they've shown lots of playable content to the public. If they don't restart the beta after two months, maybe then it's a sign of trouble. -
Relax its just a rumour
I hate to be the one to inform you of this, but Blizzard has never been one to be accused of milking anything.
Thats exactly what i meant. They havent been milking anything yet. But now they are starting to do so (if the rumours are to be believed)

Blizzard says everything is a mmog
"All Blizzard franchises will become MMOGs." All.
anyway we can lay these rumours to rest. Blizzard has denied everything

Old.
I embedded these same complaints in a less-than optimistic as this guys article about 20 days ago.

It's just beta-testing.
I'm far too lazy to actually post examples - So here's 3 pages on why. I will say that I'm surprised there's enough people who care that your mailbox is being "flooded" with complaints or anything at all.

Re:Integrity?
This is exactly the sort of thing I'm talking about. You never hear about the terribly awful in reviews when they are the things that really need to be highlighted. I'm not trying to pimp myself here - so if someone has a better example of focusing on the bad, do tell - but here's my website's review of the new Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory for the PC: Linkie. Everyone else is giving it high marks, we refused to play it because it has computer crippling, invasive techniques in it's use of Star Force copy protection. Good luck finding that on a corporate site. And this is why I hate the industry I've forced myself into.

Here
We've been discussing this at f13 after Calandryll posted the news. Without going into the design of MEO, he's answered most of the questions on the scope of the publishing rights.

Re:Muds
I'll save you the trouble and tell you exactly where this conversation will go. The following has comments on this exact subject from Raph Koster at SOE and Matt Mihaly at Iron Realms (they make big MUDs).

My Report As Well
Dammit, why didn't that format correctly?
Anyway, I also gave my report on AGC over on f13.net:

Same as it ever was...
Every single new system that is to be released has at least one article accompanying it that says 'may be hurt by lack of games at launch.' Even if 2 of 5 games are killer apps. When Gamecube was launched we saw the articles that said, "BUT NINTENDO HAS NO THIRD PARTY DEVELOPERS. OH NOES!" When Playstation was released we saw the articles that said, "Will the playstation be able to hold it's own against Nintendo and Sega? Will the lackluster release be enough?" When Dreamcast was launched...bad example. When XBox was launched we saw this same article (albeit for different reasons). But then Halo was released, all was forgiven. Seriously, this isn't news. This is just typical speculation of the cutthroat industry that is gaming.
Ironically enough, I don't remember seeing these articles for the Virtual Boy.
