If dog were smart they’d let people rent private servers where they could customize rulesets and have designated gms for that server.
This is exactly what I want - a nice private boxing server hosted by DBG that my friends and I can play on.

kinda surprising that THJ is still up tbh. If Daybreak doesn't put up the 1mil bond by COB monday to start the injunction then something fishy is happening. Like they don't have 1 million in cash available to put up for bond? According to their financials they clear 1mil a month in revenue and it takes, at most, 4-5 months to clear 1 mil in pure profit...They've owned the company since what, 2015? Surely they should have cash on hand to cover the bond.

I mean they were literally purchased by a russian oligarch's money laundering operation and the way they've ran the company since then allowing GMs to run botting rings and krono cartels to milk disability checks from all the trailer parks ie EQ players certainly suggests it's still a money laundering operation. Gonna be hilarious if they can't cover the bond.

sorry, I was busy yesterday and missed shit posting saturday so accept my tribute today

Not content being wrong about everything, you have to make up entire fictional scenarios to then be wrong about.

I'd love to see Sylas Sylas and Mrniceguy Mrniceguy go at it on Jeopardy retard edition, to see who the dumbest motherfucker on the planet is once and for all

I mean, thats what MC realms is isn't it?

I bet they would make some pretty amazing (in the realm of EQ...) money on custom private servers.

The only thing is, how would they make money? because you couldn't just do "Super Subs" they need that Krono Lording to happen.

EDIT:

This "Solo / self hosted" concept is why I think that if Project Lantern ever comes about, that it'll get sued into oblivion too...

Sure, they might have to pull a nintendo to do it but it'll happen.

They are too stupid to pull it off, so no need to think about the ways to exploit it.

I read the post. He made up a fictional sperg out to be wrong about. So you cant even read the post quoted by the post you quoted.

I still think mrniceguy beats you on a retard off though.

How many times over the years have players crashed out over EQ but still found their way back to the next TLP lol.

I haven't logged into EQ sense SoE gave out 3months too all accounts for the data breach that happened.

*shrug* lost interest after a month.

Well clearly I was just shit posting as stated in the actual post, but it's fucking tuesday and THJ is still up and has more players than Quarm or fangbreaker playing right now so uh, wtf?

I don't know the first thing about corporate bonds but if what you guys said is true, that they only need 20k to start the injunction then wtf is the hold up here? I'll give you half day friday nobody was working but this is supposedly an emergency injunction to save the company from bankruptcy they can't scrounge up 20k?

They're in talks with each other. DB just needed the win to strengthen their position. DB knows they have them on the floor ass up now.

if thj just rehosted/rebranded there servers/company in russia would they have to comply

If its all hosted outside US jurisdiction, I would think they are ok. Maybe even EU jurisdiction, no clue how they handle IP.

I think the issue would be, how would they do payment to sell all their stuff. All the major CC people have would be subjected to US law I would think, and even things like paypal or other means of payment. At least the ones people in the US would use.

I'm far from an expert though , so who knows.

If the people running the servers also moved to Russia and took payments in bitcoin, yeah that might work.

those 2 retards got sued personally so they'd still be fucked. but anyone can go on github and download all the code and host in Russia and run "The Heroe's Adventure" without a care or concern in the world, and keep milking these retards who spend their entire disability checks on illusion clickies and other useless cash shop vanity items.

literally in the time since the injunction was granted on friday you could have downloaded this game fresh, leveled 2-3 characters to max level with a few thousand AA each, ran all raid content 4 times each character, be full BIS and gotten at least $30 worth of their "donation" currency for free as drops. no fucking clue what these idiots were spending 100k a month on but it's clear that they must have stolen a few dozen whales from TLP servers and crippled daybreaks cash flow.

I really didn't think there was any overlap before since they are such different experiences but somehow EQ makes 1mil per month from 20k players, Daybreak has to protect each and every one of their whales, and these guys bringing in 100k per month from 25k players when there's zero advantage from their cash shop it's clear it's just mentally disabled people who are addicted to wasting money in cash shops, same dudes spending thousands per month on candy crush and shit.

Most European countries honor US copyrights and vice versa. The fact that THJ cares at all about this tells me they're in one of those countries.

Down goes Frazier, down goes Frazier.

"While we did everything in our power to keep THJ alive, **The Heroes’ Journey will be shutting down in one hour.**"

No one could have imagined this coming...
