SOE have deleted the thread that is referenced in the slashdot OP!? ("response from the Sony Online chain of command").
In it a bunch of people compiled a listing of what was said when by the devs......
It was starting to turn nasty.... Overall The one thing that was said is that all devs have been re-assigned to the expansion pack. That means your monthly $15 dollars IS paying for the development of an expansion pack....(minus the cost of hardware etc.)
The expansion pack has an anticipated go live date of halloween. That means that ~3 months of subscribtions are being used in this manner...
This is wrong in many cases.

They can't make you use any specific modem, but they CAN mandate that your modem must have certain "features" and "standards" under the guise of helping you out.
Additionally, they can also choose to not offer a discount for using your own modem. Pretty much eliminates most reasons to go out and get one..
>In the meantime, it will merely act as a potential financial risk of minimal severity.
AutoZone's stock has already lost 5% in the first few hours of today's trading.. IANASB, and don't know what else is going on with Autozone (AZO), but I think that 5% loss in 2 hours is more than 'minimal severity'.
that won't solve the problem... This is a little extreme of an example, but this sounds alot like all the permits/licenses you need to get now a days.. Many of them exist to supposedly prevent criminal activity, but all it really does is hurt the average joe. The people who want to bypass the permits/licenses do so....
With open relays, forged headers, and all the other different ways you can slide through the email pipes, this doesn't sound like it will drastically reduce spam..
Turning the way back clock about a year or so back...
I had my nice little ~2k tax return (I claim 2) burning a hole in my pocket, and decided on doing the same thing, Picked up a Wega, ATI's component video adapter, and an 8500 LE.
Of course, soon discovered that the component video adapter is not worth a cent(you can never see your entire desktop), and it often just doesn't plain work..
Looking into this furthur, I discovered something strange. The component video adapter was 2x the shipping and handling as some of ATI's larger videoCard bundle packages.. Mind you that the adapter is a small thing and came in a "letter" type box. It costs twice as much to ship and handle something twice as small? (when I tried to return it, they mentioned I would pay the shipping, and a small 'handling' fee. They also mentioned that yes the current drivers would not support most TV's, and that a future driver version would enable this) Of course that's also when they told me that with ATI, after 30 days, you pay for customer support. Bad driver/Hardware problem with your card, or anything else? $2.99 a minute(of course you wait the obligatory 10 minutes before you speak to someone).
I honestly felt a little extorted.....really felt like there was a little bit of a bad conspiracy..The component did not do what they said, and raised shipping and handling charges, so that if people did return it, they still came out in the black... (also the 30 day thing is atrocious, (This is a real quote) ME:"You say that it probably won't work without the newer drivers, and the newer drivers ETA >30 days, so I'll have to pay you to help me get it working the first time?" ATI Support Rep: "Unforunately, Yes".
I'll admit Iwandered right into a rant, but ATI has a history of bad drivers....Before Buying something from them, do a LOT of research.
