But don't see how that could be possible. Back it up with actual statistics or confirmation from someone who actually knows about it or please stop citing it.


Well i can confirm at least $600 has been spent on this game from various sources.

Pretty sure that would not even cover a weeks running costs ?

Well ill put it in perspective**** for you.

Minimum pay requirements set out by US/UK laws * hours spent working on this game from the devs/mods(for the paid ones) + Server costs is >$600> for 1 week. A full time coder for a major gaming company is most likely to earn $600 per week alone. *Average minimum US weekly wage based on 40hours work is like $300, and remember thats **MINIMUM**.

Trust me, unless the devs actually spend there day doing nothing on the games development / production, or do it as volunteer coding which i doubt.

There are no official numbers released for this nor is there any info posted by me or Jorbtar in any supersecret forum, so Dallane is trolling.


so you never said it was in irc? fairly sure you did


I'm pretty sure I would recall such a statement. Although I could have said something that was misinterpreted as that.
I never managed to figure out something clever for my signature on Paradoxplaza, and I doubt I'll do it here either.

Welcome back from your vacation Dallane. Post a few more times in this manner and you'll enjoy an even longer one pretty soon.



And there's the problem. At least we know where the mods learn their unprofessional behavior from now...

@baron: Had to look it up, but I do recall that PM discussion now, and I do stand corrected. (I really should clean out my inbox more often... It might help me "forget" these things better :lol: )
