Just out of curiosity, how long did it take other MMORPG's to reach this number?


EQ for example?

Just out of curiosity. Is my stalkers life really so pathetic as having to rate me down even on the most benign posts?

Now you KNOW, NotCoach, just by asking that question you're guaranteed some down rates. :)

I think everyone who reaches Scholar has the same stalker. You post a lot more, so you are more succeptable to whomever they are. =(

It's a weakness in the Karma system. I would like to see a list of raters and thier ratings near a post.

I for one would be proud to display my ratings.

Anyway, back on topic, 1M woot woot woot! Yay FFXI. I think this game is on it's way to a long career as the premier MMORPG.

That may be a fair assessment. I have 3 mules myself.

I think the karma system is on some sort of weighted curve or average. The more posts you have, the more votes it takes to change your overall karma. In NotCoach's case, it's gonna take a lot ^.^

I did my share too.. Bumped him up a bit.

Anyone care to do the math on this? Let's assume half of these are mules:

500,000 main accounts: 6.5 million
500,000 mules: 0.5 million

$7,000,000 a month!

If memory serves me, aren't they pretty much rehashing the same news? I thought that when they passed 500,000 subscribers (individual accounts) that they also said there were nearly a million characters. So 1,000,000+ characters means, what, maybe 1,000 - 10,000 new subscribers?

I personally have seven mules (I set the market price on many items, lol) and wouldn't live without them. I don't think I've ever thrown a single item out since I got the game ... I still have half-full stacks of zeruhn ash on one of them, lol.
