Are we worrying? Id say the players that post hysterical comments about Jagex moving to china are. But a discussion about whether or not this is a good thing for the game isn't necessarily worrying.

Also I've been p2p for a number of years on my main Telcis. D4 can verify that as we have been close friends for quite a while now.

D4, its quite flattering having you strive for my attention on all the forums.


The sheer fact you think I strive for your attention just tells me you want my attention. How concerning it is that you have to seek the attention of people like me on an Internet forum.

See, because you responded in a provocative manner, it shows that you want my attention. If you didn't you'd be able to ignore it.
But hey, that has nothing to do with the topic of this thread. So lets keep the romance to in game ed8ing.

This acquisition is going to be
HUGELY beneficial!

What this acquisition will do is
give the game back to the players.


Players will try to fear monger or just post their lack of knowledge mixed with whatever fears their mind creates. But the evidence just isn't there to support those claims


What the evidence
strongly
suggests is that the proposed takeover company will not play a part in the game at all. They will leave it
completely
to Jagex.


But why?!
Well! the Chinese economy seems to be slowing down after a huge manufacturing boom. This means that the yuan (Chinese currency) is expected to lose its value. So everything owned in yuan will lose value too.
The solution to not lose value when the yuan does is to buy things that are not governed by the value of the yuan. Such as an overseas company. There is some risk involved in this, so the buying company wants to make sure that they find a company that is stable. Due to the
time constraints
in buying a foreign company they have to make sure that the companies owner(s) will no doubt accept. So they offer them more than the company is worth. This means they will lose some value due to the overpriced offer, but save value over keeping their worth in yuan.

This is called hedging.

Please stay on topic. Your advances are becoming unwelcome.

I see you're repeating the same post again.

Knew you ran out of substance. Thanks for conceding :B

So they offer them more than the company is worth.
I would like to mention that the offer is not for $300m, as is implied by numerous people and the media. The offer, as stated by the original Chinese reports, will not EXCEED $300m. The actual offer may have been substantially lower.

Yes I am repeating it because it remains the most logical explanation of the current information.

This doesn't really change the outcome though.
