Sounds more like immaturity than nerves to me. Just saying.
The idea that a large company would spend so large a sum, only to immediately interfere with a proven profit-making formula is, at best, naive.


And the idea that a company would put up 300M and be willing to wait 200 years to see profit (money above their initial investment) is nothing short of asinine.

Have you acted in a way that we have felt you would answer a question if we gave it? nope. Well certainly I haven't felt that way.


You are the one that made the claim that I had deflected questions with humor, are you not?

What questions?

edit for clarity:

Just because you were so afraid I wouldn't answer questions that you didn't ask any, does NOT mean I deflected questions with humor. You lied.

This is no different to any other company being bought/invested in
I assure you the plan is to make profit

I don't think this is A fear of china buyers/investors itself but A fear of the unknown which is perfectly logical fear especially with A minning company

Why would they have to wait 200 years? They get quarterly dividend payments. The longest they would have to wait for profit is a few months. They can resell the company at any point to recoup their initial investment.

It wasn't really a question, although I suppose I could have asked you to support your claims with some facts, but I notice you neglected to respond to this: Original message details are unavailable.

And next will you say that the vast majority of games in China are NOT locked down to only China?
I've seen that claim made quite a few times already, however, I can't seem to find anything that actually supports that claim.

Don't mind me while I laugh a little more (you can't really expect me to not be entertained by being accused of deflecting questions with humor, when you readily admit there was no question asked).

I've seen fmod post saying it's not ok to explain how to search for something (OSRS general thread on this same topic) so that makes it pretty tough to tell you how to find the info.

How about we go with this:

You go try to create an account on China's iteration of world of warcraft...

Or, try to gather info on 'regional lockouts'?

It's been my experience that games that ARE region locked to China, require that you have an ID that can only be obtained by living IN China and that ID is only issued to one person. Ever.

Why would they need to wait that long?

Let's look at jagex's annual profits?

If the investment is 300M, how long do you suppose it would take for that which you are calling 'quarterly profit' to actually reach 300M.

You seem to be suggesting that this company is only wanting to buy jagex to later sell it, and there is NO evidence currently available to support that belief.

Let's be generous here and say jagex nets 1.5M a year in profit. How many years would that be if this new company sits on its' hands and waits for the initial return of the 300M?
