Fine, it was a post where you finally admit your faults. It was an 'apology' of some sorts, for treating your players the way you have over the past, I'd say four years. But at the end of the day it's just fancy words put on the main page by someone that claims to be the head of the company.
I was forum banned for stating my opinion about EoC - about it being completely rushed and you not getting the CORRECT and ACCURATE feedback from your players. As I've said, the "survey" you introduced in the Beta was mostly biased. With the promise of an Exp gift at the end, surely you didn't expect people to thoughtfully or truthfully answer your questions? A poll could have been done, as it was done for the re-release of the Wilderness and Free Trade. Even if the overall vote was "no", you could have spent all of the money you used on EoC and EoC's Beta to better the game in other ways.
My opinion on EoC is the same. It's a rundown version of WoW. It was rushed, it is plagued with bugs, and the combat system you claim to have "fixed" is entirely out of whack. I highly dislike the format, but I am, of course, forced to adapt. After spending nearly 8 years playing this game, I'm not about to quit and put everything I worked for - and paid for - to waste without completing my goals. However, many friends did not share the same opinion. I went from a friends list of 80 close friends I've met over the years, to a list of 15. Out of those 15, maybe 8 of them actually log on to play and ENJOY the game. Many of these people were close to a Maxed/Completionist cape, or already had reached that goal. It's a shame, really.

There's a number of things I could complain about, but I highly doubt you or your mods (who I could complain about for weeks and weeks about their poor costumer service, etc.) will be reading this post anyway. Thank you for the post, but I'd like to see you fix all of your mistakes before I actually take you seriously.
