Hi!

Dont know why they do such things. I guess they are used to issueing "flaky" reasons.

Well, regardless, its a damn shame to lose that archive.... :(

Hi!

True, without the archive, conversions are hard to justify.

Hmm, if anything you'd expect GWUS to keep this stuff around, its not as if they can't afford it.

G/W US sells what "sells" ... let's admit it ... Epic is very "small potatos" for G/W ... but I certainly don't like it ! :angry:

Hi!

Thats definately GWUS's approach, they aren't going out of their way for anything less than sales at the level of 40k or fantasy. All esle is of little importance.

Stormseer, they yanked the archive shortly before epicA was released in the UK. I find it highly improbably that ALL molds were worn out AT THE SAME TIME. I think they are so used to dealing with "kiddies" nowadays that they forget there may be some adults that may like more sophisticated answers.....


Quite...
-Precisely my point- why don't they just say; "Oh, the archive won't make us any money, so we won't bring it back..." ..instead of fobbing us off as they seem to be doing... :(

Because that would require GWUS to show a level of maturity and honesty they will never have.  :L

When you look at how they hire and what they look for in an employee (I mean the business side) it is not such a shock that they make such dumb mistakes.

You know the saying GIGO.

Well, welcome to corporate america, a land where greed is is matched only managerial incompitence and complicency.

(the impact of the above statement would be far greater if I could spell some of those words ?:D )
