On topic, thank you for the update, Golden. You probably posted this over on the Titan forums and I just haven't gotten around to it yet. |

Let's face it, we went past the point of no return ages ago. All that's left is to see if we can drive NCSoft's stock price down a bit further...
Frankie says it best.
Eh, editing this out. Trolling the troll didn't feel as good as I thought it would. I felt all...dirty.
I will say though, that nothing you say ever has any weight, Brillig. You pick what little tidbits you can an attempt to turn them into some percieved insult against the quoted, you do nothing but go around stirring up negativity, and all the while attempt to act like you are superior to everyone else involved. You are far, far more immature then even the person I quoted, and yet you try to act like everyone else are the ones stooping to some level. You will not be missed.

Uhm CoH/SAVE/Titan isn't driving NCSoft stock prices down. Their stock is declining true, but it has nothing to do with CoH 
Are you prepared to state that their stock is being even moderately affected by CoH/Save/Titan if their stock prices go up...like they did on the day of the announcement A 50,000 sub MMO closing had no impact on 8/31...and if you think 100 people blogging/tweeting is... well that's just plain silly. A LOT of stocks are currently down big time...like Microsoft, Google, Apple, Activision Blizzard, Sony, and even Walmart have all taken dives the past 2-3 months... damn you Titan! 
Paragon/CoH has not even registered a blip in South Korean news, and hasn't really been NEWS here in the US outside of some gaming sites and blogs. There are MUCH bigger reasons their stock is currently down. Sorry to hit ya with a reality bomb, but stock fluctuates and not because of a few people screaming #GAMEKILLER, a weekly Joystiq article, comment bombing, or blogging.

The peak of that climb was the weekend of the Unity Rally. And the result of that was NOT just blogs and tweets. Maybe it was just blind luck then, that the highest NCsoft got in the whole 3 month span just happened to be that same weekend. Or maybe it was just Karma being the middle-man.

If A_F were just tossing the fanboy/girl title around, that would at least make more sense.
But it sounds like there's much more of a personal grudge in this case. |

The stock slump has to do with the financial report, with Aion, Lineage and Lineage II taking massive revenue hits and Blade & Soul isn't performing up to expectations...you know...over in Korea. It's not rocket science. But you have to drop the hate and BS when you analyze stocks and companies.

Right, on with the show.

Indeed, but looking at the financial reports with the eyes of an accountant, there's quite a few things that just don't add up the way they should. Even if NCSoft's stock hadn't been dropping for the past several weeks, I still wouldn't touch it.

Their western income was what, 5% of their world wide total and CoH was ~45% of that, so while I doubt the western response to closing CoH had much to do with their stock dropping like a rock, the management decisions including and not limited to closing down CoH are much more likely a cause.
Closing CoH may be one of many millstones they hung around their own necks.
For the people concerned that SaveCoH is going to shutdown GW2 I'd recommend being more concerned about NCSoft shutting it down in their attempt to pull out of their stock nosedive if it continues as it is.

Oh well. Regardless, the lack of anyone being around to keep an astroturfer on a payroll remains the same.|

BS?

The likelihood of NCSoft closing GW2 due to the stock price dropping is exactly the same as the likelihood of NCSoft closing CoH due to the stock price dropping. Zero.

Actually, my speculation (granted, just that) about why the rush to close NCSoft rather than the normal "ramp up the pressure" ending is that after the lousy quarterly result and stock issues, the word came in to do something significant. And after the announcement, stock went up, maybe it was taken as "doing something serious about focusing on profits".

My arcs are constantly shifting, just search for GadgetDon for the latest.
The world beware! I've started a blog
GadgetMania Under Attack: The Digg Lockout
NO the one that was released 2 weeks ago.....which was not as good as stock holders had hoped for. Why would I reference LAST quarters report when I am talking about their stocks NOW after the 3rd quarter report?
Top that off with weak sales of B&S in Korea (where NCSoft is...) as well as other under performing titles (Aion/Lineage/Lineage II) in the East.... NCSoft stock is not made or broken by Western issues as the Western Market is minuscule compared to the Eastern Market. I don't care how many emoticons people throw out there...the reality is NCSoft stock is reacting to much bigger things....in Asia.

Because in response to the idea that the SaveCoH rally triggered the landslide, you were saying, "No, it was the financial report." 3Q wasn't published until 2 months AFTER the stocks began dropping. So why would I think you were talking about the 3rd quarter?
