An apology is not enough

I would like Erling Ellingson to wash my car. Then I would be satisfied. He only has to do it once. All I ask is that he towel dries it and waxes it. Some black tyre paint would be nice too.

"Cursed Be Iron."

Well you gotta start from somewhere... But trying to petition an apology is like asking to someone wipe your ass just because you'r too lazy to do it yourself. You really think online petitions are going to make a dent in Funcom's activity? Get real. I admit I thought AoC was going to be the next best game. Didn't take that long for me to realize most things they promised were bulls*it. But hey, after Vanguard or Tabula Rasa it didn' t feel that bad anymore. And I'm not sure if Warhammer Online is everything they promised either.

As long as there's no real legal actions taken against Funcom and other gaming companies, and showing that us gamers are seriously tired with getting screwed 10 - 0 while the companies walk away with our money - there's not much to do than rant on various forums or do this petition thingy, which could be taken as serious as boy scout hobbies or building skyscrapers from LEGOs.

As long as you install the game and click on the "accept" part of the End User Access License Agreement, they can do whatever they want with the game. All you can do is enjoy the ride and watch how the game goes back and forth between steaming pile sh*t and a shining diamond.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against petitions or devoted my life to cover Funcom's ass like we have seen in some Dorkfall cases. I'm just saying that going against big companies with petitions and stuff like that is like going to war, armed with toothpicks. With current type of marketing, companies are able AND allowed to say almost anything and sell all kinds of beta releases half done junk as a  "full game".

To put a stop for that, it would require a huge movement of gamers who would somehow market against the product and tell us consumers that "My friend, your are getting screwed now big time!". And I'm not sure if that's actually allowed.

I know there is always the game reviews that give you some sort of idea from the game, but if I'm correct, in some cases those reviews can also be controlled with enough money. 

I couldn't care less if Funcom would make a public apology, understanding what they actually did and why some gamers are mad to the company. I feel very stupid for buying their game and hearing a Funcom's apology or the company admitting, that they cheated our money wont change it. I already know I got screwed.

50 Euros is not that big amount, but for every cheated customer it builds up into very juicy amount of money. It's a shame those *ssholes can't be forced to pay us back.

There is definitely a neat loophole here, which can be freely used by gaming companies.

Pinky! are you pondering what I'm pondering?

I'm sorry...it may just be me, but why would you seriously demand an apology over a GAME! I just don't think games are THAT important.

Current MMO dev teams = Keystone cops.A pure comedy of errors,sadly its not as intentional.

Appologies dont mean squat.Did any rational person care when Brad went into his "appoligies" ?

You should be asking that they resign.AND that they leave the industry for good.Theyve proved they cant make a successful game, how many times do you want them to prove the same thing ?

There IS someone out there who can,but til the road is clear and the oppurtunity is open to them,it wont happen.

Basically, if you are unhappy with funcom, what's the harm in signing this petition?  What would be wrong with Funcom issuing a formal apology?  It takes a few seconds to sign this petition and if enough people hit it, maybe we could get something started.

How about just saying your peace and moving on..Maybe its the gamers who have come to this Forum over and over and that have bashed the company, its employees and its fans who need to make an apology.

Its funny all of a sudden Funcom is coming around big time on content, fixing things, adding new content and all the negative posts have turned around into positive comments and into people that quit who said they will never come back are all coming back.
