Let me tell of a tale 'bout a man named George..
Rich beyond his years, he taxed to death the poor
Then one day he raised his taxes through the roof
And over in the States came a bubblin feud.
(Revolt, that is, no taxation, without representation)

Well, the first thing you know the armies was drawin near
Colonists said, George, get the heck outta here.
Said, London is the place your armies oughta be
So they loaded up the rifles and sent them back to Britainy.

Well, now it's time to say goodbye, to George and all his friends
They would like to thank you folks for the lot o' dividends
This'll never be a British Commonwealth again.
Say hello to the United States, a new country for free men.
(Declaration, that is, of independence, and liberty).

Y'all come back now, hear?

--
Moral of this story. This business plan's going to kill AW in the same
amount of time leaving the pricing alone will. Alternative solution: Kill
the 3D homepage program, sell the excess bandwidth, and cut all
non-essential jobs, and I'm certain Mr. Noll and Mr. McCormick and other
staff members can take a salary cut. Then if there's still not enough to
pay off your debts, raise the renewal prices a few dollars, but not so much
that a lot of folks can't afford it.

Ugh.. Ok I'm retracting this. It's a fun read but I think Facter convinced
me to hang in there. If Rick knows what he's doing, then this is all a very
small part of a last-ditch effort to save AW! Just wait and you'll see.
It's got about a 50/50 chance of happening I gather, so hope and pray that
it does.

Rick and everyone else... whatever this plan of yours is, it better work.
The best of luck to all of you. Go get em!

Yes, facter enlightened a few of us that this is all part of a larger plan
that "we should enjoy" if AW lasts long enough to see it through. For all of
you complaining, if you love AW enough money is no object, however if you
think it is to much then leave, theres no compromise. Apparently this has
been in planning for a few months, since Facter knows about it. He didn't
give us any details, but I hope it works whatever it is. Rick has saved AW
before and hes gonna do it again (hopefully).

For all you AWCOM folks and the entire AW Community, good luck and godspeed!

Although maybe if we knew the plan we could all rally around it and have
better morale. Right now the common attitude is "what a bunch of idiots!".
Since the plan really depends on us, the customers, maybe we should know
about it? I'm sure it would help many of us shoulder the burden of the rise
in the price if we knew it was all for a good cause and we could understand
how it will work.

Of course they don't OWE us an explanation. But we also don't OWE them to
remain customers...

I dont think its a lat ditch attempt - I did say though, that with the
market the way it is at the moment, that we just have to have faith in them.

I have faith in Rick, if its one thing that I learnt about him in the time I
worked for AW, and that is that he genuinely loves Activeworlds, and will do
whatever he can for it. Yes, I am also sure that this is probably only a
small part of it.

Just have faith in the driver, I'm sure he'll get us all to where we want to
go. If he doesnt, well, then its been a hell of a ride, right?

MMmmmm, well, I dont believe I said those words exactly, and nope, no
details, but you got the gist right - but as I said before, I do have faith
in their future plans, and I'll always be rooting for the continuance of
such an amazing peice of software.

Plan? Of course they have a plan. I know a small portion of it, but its no
secret theey have a plan - they are a company, and every company needs a
plan. If one plan fails, then they switch to another plan, and if the plans
keep failing, then try again, it the same old adage.

Something Moff said, makes me point out something which in talking to these
guys I should of made quite clear - I dont know the specific plan, and even
if I did then I would not, nor find it honorable to reveal what it was, or
even discuss details as to it. Even without my signature on an NDA I could
still not ever find it in me to tell any of you things which I know about in
confidence - it is ethically alien to me to even think of such a thing. But
I dont know any specific plan, so I think that perhaps there was some
confusion there - I know of what they *hope* to do eventually, and I know
parts of the overall game plan for the next year - of course,t his could of
changed, how do I know ? I'm jsuta normal member of the community now. See?
Feathers and all. I'm as surprised about the price increase as everyone
else, and I have no diea how it will actually pan out, but I do see why it
was installed in the first place, and I do understand alot of the motivation
behind it. Heck, I dont work there, nor privy to anything that goes on there
anymore, but I'd like to think that after working in the environment for a
year and a half that I get the gist, and I have high hopes for this
software. Really, really, high hopes.

Stick it out. Stay until your citz run out, and if the changes have been
made obvious by the time it gets to that stage, then pay the extra money per
month. If they havnt, and you remain skeptical of the future, or where the
company is heading, then dont pay up, its as easy as that. If you cant have
faith in the future of something that you claim to love so much, and cant be
bothered paying $2 a week to help sustain that thing that you love, then
hell, quit - no one will stop you, that is your perogative.

As for me, well, my working for them I hope was jsut a small portion of my
part in AW. Hell, I've been here since 96, and I'll be here ont he day it
gets shut down til the last minute. For what it is worth to Rick himself and
the rest of you, I think I will always in some way hold to the fact that
there is hope for the Activeworlds community as long as he is at the helm -
he is a kind, generous and genuinly loving man towards this software. You'd
have to be to invest as much time into it as he has, whether it is a job
with an income, or not.

There are some things, that money *cant* buy, and that is community - but it
sure as hell can help pay the rent.

Sounds just like Boss Hogg from The Dukes of Hazzard! LOL Every Friday
night he was up to no good. Taking money from the innocent town folks and he
was always messing with those sweet Duke boys & poor old Uncle Jessie & I do
believe he wanted to get his greedy little hands on that sizzlin' Daisy Duke
a time or two if I remember correctly.

Oh, yeah! Good old Boss Hogg! One thing you could count on with him
though.....he always had a plan! But I do remember this.... I never saw a
single one of his plans work in his favor. Probably because he was always so
concerned about his wants and his needs that he would always forget to tell
Roscoe P. Coltrain exactly what needed to be done to make the plan work.

What a great television program that was. And I never thought for once that
it would teach me a lesson about life. Definately ahead of it's time! YEE
HAW!!!

Pigs get fed.......but "Hogg"s get slaughtered! :o)

Cast:
Boss Hogg - Rick Noll
Roscoe P. Coltrain - AW Community
Bo Duke - "Tourist1"
Luke Duke - "Tourist2"
Daisy Duke - "Tourist3"
Uncle Jesse - "Tourist4"

"Emmy bound",

mojobones, you're an idiot, plain and simple. Your opinion is your opinion,
but my opinion of your opinion is that you jumped to conclusions. Go and
look at all the facts for yourself instead of listening to the GZ'ers. THEN
come back and tell us that.

After sleeping on the matter (not easy to do with the flu), I have decided I
will ride it all out as long as my most recently purchased citizenship last.
BUT, I must express extreme displeasure at the un-professional method of
announcing this pricing change. If they had this plan worked up months ago as
some of those "in the know" claim, we should have had more than a 24 hour
notice.

Having a longer notice wouldn't have helped things. But then again, who's
to say it would have made things worse?

I am including a copy of this discussion we had with facter




<snip>
Goober King: Trust me, I'll be doing much pondering over this and scheming
as well :)
SW Comit: are you pondering what I'm pondering?
Syntax: SW Comit: Whilie Cyotes us
Syntax: omg that's going on the website as your quote
Goober King: I think so Brain, but burlap chaffs me so...
SW Comit: ^_^
Syntax: O_O
LilAlpha Phalpha: EA
SW Comit: I'm asking Duskbat to join. An insider him
SW Comit: *silence*
Syntax: I'm asking Teddy Man Soft to join. An insider him.
Facter: oh yeah, invite me to join then ignore me chris =P
SW Chris: y
Goober King: Guess I'll be staying a bit longer.... hay Facter :)
SW Comit: ^_^
Syntax: lol hi Fac
SW Chris: oh there you are.
Facter: aye guys
SW Chris: Sorry for missing your join request. :\
SW Comit: lol chris you always do that
LilAlpha Phalpha: hi facter
Facter: its okay, just giving you shit :)
Goober King: hehe
Facter: ok
SW Chris: I was rereading my Talking Points column.
Syntax: yea he always does that
Facter: i cant relaly comment on this muchin all honesty :)
SW Chris: That is my one and only flaw. ^_^
LilAlpha Phalpha: <cough>
Syntax: lol "hub-bub"
Facter: reading their statement well
SW Chris: I think you knew about it several months ago. :) But we were
talking about the possibility of appealing to another corporation to buy AWC
out.
SW Chris: like Sony or AOL/Time Warner.
Facter: I'd say that what is written there, isnt an excuse, and is probably
the truth - i mean, rick signed it, and I no matter what, I have never, ever
known Rick to be a deceptive man - its not in him
SW Comit: Time Warner would be interested?
SW Chris: I believe every word he said.
SW Comit: AOL I can see, they buy a lot of stuff
SW Chris: They are a media company... *shrug*
Facter: yeah, so do I
SW Chris: He's just not a businessman, it seems.
Goober King: I don't think any of us here is in doubt of him... It's just
that do they really need to go that high?
Goober King: Do they truly understand the ramifications of all this?
Facter: I know, that there is more to the story..i actualyl know a shitload
of stuff that you guys dont, company stuff..i know some plans etc etc that
they have in the works, and I can also see how this fits in with some of
those plans
SW Chris: Well those plans won't work if Ol' George is still a rulin from
England. :)
SW Chris: (see community newsgroup for an explaination) *shrug*
Goober King: The letter made it sound like Rick was just expecting the rest
of the community to go along with this scheme...
LilAlpha Phalpha: LOL
SW Chris: I think he was hoping against hope that most people would
understand.
Facter: ricks a fukin great guy, honestly - if he thinks he's doing the
right thing, then that is what he in his heart believes - I had the
opportunity to get to know him in person, and all I know is that the man is
a truely good soul
SW Comit: hmm I can't see why they need the sharp revenue change, are they
planning on hiring 20 programmers or something?
Facter: goober
SW Chris: Lara's not happy that's for sure.
Facter: I dont think he's expecting anything
SW Chris: tortured soul as well. :\
Facter: and I'm damn sure, that he knew that there were going to be alot of
unhappy people
Goober King: Lots of people aren't happy, Chris
SW Chris: What would dumping the 3d homepages program and selling excess
bandwidth do to help things?
Facter: oh man, how would you feel having to do something like this,
seriously ?
Goober King: Frankly, I would have at least given everyone a bit more notice
that one whole day :P
Facter: have any of you guys looked at the economy lately? im amazed AW
didnt fold along with the rest of the internet companies in the past year
SW Chris: Read the Talking Points article. :)
Facter: notice for what though goober?
Facter: if they are going to do it,t hey are going to do it - what
difference is one day, a week, or a month going to do?
Facter: you all have cits, im sure you have time left on them
SW Chris: Looking at it from Rick's perspective, yeah Facter you're right.
Facter: look
Facter: im not taking sides here
SW Comit: afaw while I read talking points
Facter: one of the hardet fukin things i did was go to work for that
company, and basically ostracise myself fromt he community
SW Chris: neither are we we hope.
Syntax: He said ostrich ^_^
SW Chris: ....
Goober King: *smacks Syn*
Syntax: lol
Syntax: Too bad Comit is afaw, he woulda laughed :-P
Facter: but ive had the unique perspective to be in on things that you guys
dont know, and am privvy to a plan they have that will, if it works,
probably end up knocking your socks out - if they survive that long..which I
guess is allt hey are trying to do n
Facter: I think its jsut a wait and see thing really
Goober King: The problem is, Facter, we've heard that line before...
Facter: so thats all I'm going to do...wait and see
Goober King: Same here
SW Chris: I'll be praying it does. But I really wish he'd explain it.
Facter: the thing is goober - it hasnt been someone you trust telling you
that line
Facter: I'd like to think you guys trust my opinion sometimes, even if I am
naive to believe so =P
Goober King: True enough... but then, Rick and JP should already be people I
can trust :P
Facter: well, you dont, and thats reality
Facter: its shame, but you dont
Syntax: I think you have some good points fac
Facter: hell, i dont trust bill gates and i still use his stupid software
SW Chris: but Facter..
Facter: what I *do* trust is you guys
SW Chris: we don't have a _choice_ =P
Goober King: I'd love to trust them to, honestly... But I just can't given
their past performance
Facter: of course you have a choice man
Facter: use AW or leave
SW Chris: not to use Microsoft's software
Facter: pay what they want, or leave
SW Chris: that's what I waws talking about. : )
Facter: let it fail, or let it live
Facter: there is always a choice, its jsut not always the choice YOU want
SW Chris: touche
Goober King: I guess real life had to intrude on the virtual one at some
point *smirk*
Facter: at some stage you guys will have to choose to go, or stay
SW Chris: interesting take on that situation.
Facter: yeh, it sucks when that happens
Syntax: bah
Syntax: But what if AW goes go belly-up?
SW Chris: I for one will hang on till it's not worth it anymore.
Facter: fuck, we've stuck with it this long
Syntax: What will I do with this 3 years of work?
Goober King: Then we move on, Syn
Facter: if it goes belly up?
SW Chris: And after that I'll keep a close eye on what AWC is doing.
Syntax: What will i do with all this work?
Facter: hmmm
Syntax: 400k+ of objects built?
Goober King: Remember it
LilAlpha Phalpha: Facter if it goes "belly up" will the other universes go
down too?
SW Chris: would uniservers still work if there's no company left to pay dues
to?
Goober King: They certainly wouldn't develop anymore
Facter: well, seriously...if it went belly up financially? rick and JP would
still own it. It wouldnt disappear I dont tihnk..they could fire everyone at
the office,a dn keep it running probably
Goober King: You think OW or City4All has any programmers of Roland's
caliber? :P
SW Chris: but it'd be a nice museum piece. Have your own personal uniserver
just to preserve this city.
Facter: it jsut would enver,e ver grow, and it would soon, ina year or two,
be a meuseum and obsolete
Facter: goober
Facter: theres a difgference - what the hell do they need bloody programmers
for ? they buy the software from aw ?
LilAlpha Phalpha: would need a uniserver, mabey just a galaxy
Facter: then go to another universe guys
Facter: there are plenty out there, ow is a fun place
Facter: as for the stuff here ?
SW Chris: Well we're rootin for AW.
Goober King: That's what I mean, Fac... if AW stops, they take all the other
universes with it
Facter: Get a world, back up the work you did in here, and re-bot it in a
different universe with the same object path
Facter: eh
Facter: goober
SW Chris: :\
SW Chris: We can't afford a p500
Syntax: lol
Goober King: We'll be stuck in 3.2 for eternity
LilAlpha Phalpha: LOL
Syntax: yea this city is 800 x 600 coords
Facter: I hav been to universes that have never been paid for, lets not be
naive here
SW Comit: back
SW Comit: 500x850+ for the hundreth time >_<
SW Chris: ah, he catches on.
LilAlpha Phalpha: LOL
Syntax: Go up and read my funny comment, COmit :-P
SW Chris: It is a last-ditch option though.
SW Comit: I did
Syntax: ^_^
Goober King: I know that... But AW is the only one actually *developing* the
software... if AW goes stagnant, so will all the other Universes
SW Chris: only should the community itself cease to exist.
Facter: yes?
Facter: of course?
SW Comit: as for the UniverseX, David16 runs it
Facter: I dont see the argument here ?
SW Comit: with dennis and magical
SW Chris: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Facter: so it goes belly up? no more AW ?
Facter: let me ask you something
Facter: so what ?
SW Chris: to clarify on Goober's part... no more new tech from AW.
Syntax: ah well..
Syntax: I'll just pay for one month of AW a year..
Facter: what, do you guys love this place so much that you'd miss it ?
Goober King: No, because once development stops, then interest wanes and the
community disappears
SW Chris: Yeah! :)
Facter: right
Syntax: Fac..yes
Facter: the community tends to die right ?
Goober King: You tell me, Fac... I've spent 5+ years here
Facter: then stop your bitching, keep supporting them for as long as you
feel you are morally able to, or financially able to, and see where it takes
you
Facter: because the only way its going to survive is by following their game
plan
Syntax: Yea I guess your right.
Facter: theres no question about that
Facter: what the hell choice do you guys have? its a business? ither support
them or dont, stay, ro leave - its pretty simple
SW Comit: they outa just cut staff....look at Motorola, a major
communication company. They had finical problems so they cut staff, you
didn't see them jacking the prices on their computer parts, they got too
much competition
Goober King: That's all well and good, but if I decide to play along, it
won't make much of a difference if nobody else does :P
Facter: comit
Syntax: yea i guess..
Goober King: They don't have that much of a staff to cut, Comit :P
Facter: read what you just said
SW Chris: It is also a way of life.
Facter: plese note, that your talking to someone that worked for them until
two or so month ago, and read the line you jsut wrote
Facter: ahem. hello. people. unemployed individual here.
Syntax: lol duh
SW Chris: Welcome to the No Spin Zone.
SW Comit: welp, dunno what to say about that...it happens
SW Chris: I think he was pointing out that they alread DID cut staff.
Facter: well yes, but if you guys think that all f this is sudden, jsut
review the past year or so and you'll see its not
Syntax: Guess we'll have to pay if we want the city.
Goober King: Smooth, Comit :P
Facter: ahem. well. yes, that was my point exactly.
SW Chris: Well I'm savin.
Syntax: *shrugs*
Syntax: same
Syntax: ugh but its like $18 a month in Canada :-((
Goober King: I'm renewing ASAP, so I don't have to pay until next year :)
SW Chris: ahh Syn... give Facter a break.
LilAlpha Phalpha: do they really need 5 programmers tho, werent they doing
fine with just roland?
Syntax: hehe I have until October...
SW Chris: He's been through that all night I bet.
Facter: but...I have faith in Rick, in all honesty. alot of times I didnt
agree with him, and sometimes I still dont..but if this is what he thinks he
can do, then I'll believe him. He saved this place from disappearing once
before, and I reckon he probablyd
SW Chris: August for me.
SW Comit: they got 5? wow didn't know that =P
Syntax: Well..HamFon, Roland, Nanodragon...
Facter: has enough lvoe..no, nto probably, he fukin adores this place and
this community, you have no idea - i reckon he can do it again
Syntax: err
Facter: five
Facter: hamfon, roland, shamus, nanodragon and grimm as contractor
SW Comit: what's a nanodragon? lol
Syntax: oh right
Facter: a very small dragon
Facter: :)
SW Comit: heh =P
Syntax: >_<
Goober King: You also gotta remember that everyone raised the same ruccus
back when they first introduced the $20/yr fee, and the community managed to
survive that too
Syntax: Would that be a lizard? :-D
SW Comit: Hey facter I thought you left AW cause you found a better job?
Facter: yep, it did - and, aftr thgat, it actually made money through
investment, and even went over the blackline for a short time til the market
died
SW Comit: I didn't follow up on the story well
Facter: no
SW Chris: Would the MMORPG comparison hold up here Facter? Subscribers to
those services pay around 10 bucks a month as well.
Facter: i left AW because I had other things in my life I wanted to do
Facter: it was a mutual compromise between all parties involved
SW Comit: mmm I thought that implied as another job
Facter: other things in life do not necessarily always mean a 9-5 job my
friend..no, im happily writing music, and doing scifi stories...and im about
to move over to London, and start exploring Europe for a while :)
SW Comit: mmm those MMORPGs are worth 10 a month, though..it must be, most
of them have millions of users O_O
SW Comit: well not most
SW Comit: lots...
Facter: chris, yes, that comparison could hold up
Syntax: Speaking of MMORPG's....
Facter: *waiting for his SoL CD to arrive*
Syntax: I hear Helbreath calling my name, lol
SW Comit: but I thought *you* left AW, they didn't lay you off...
Facter: mmmmm
Facter: its long story, and not really one that I think is up fer
discussion - lets just say that we all had to do things, and we parted on
good terms, and I enjoyed working there
SW Chris: ahhhh
SW Comit: np
Facter: but in all honesty, i think I rpefer now to just be one of you guys
:)
SW Chris: sounds good.
Goober King: hehe
SW Chris: Eep's not around to bug you either. ^_^
SW Comit: lol
Syntax: lol
SW Comit: if he did I'd bump warp him to my sfx hell
Facter: h, and i've been gettin in some damn good EQ in my time off
too..hehehe
SW Chris: I'm glad he's gone.
Facter: hehe
Facter: eep?
SW Chris: yes...
Goober King: He didn't leave AW entirely...
SW Chris: all he did was moan and complain.
Goober King: Or did he?
Facter: I actually think hes okay, always made things interesting
SW Chris: And if you saw that masochistic post about what he does in his
spare time on Usenet...
Facter: he just gave me the absolute shit is all :)
LilAlpha Phalpha: LOL yes he did
Facter: hay
Goober King: I thought he was just kicked out of the NGs...
SW Comit: Grace Mace would be a good addition to our conversation, too bad
he's not here =P
Syntax: lmao
SW Comit: *shakes head*
SW Chris: heh well don't worry. It was the exact same stuff he pulled in
the AW NGs.
Facter: hes a pudgy young guy with nothing but his computer for
companionship
SW Chris: :(
LilAlpha Phalpha: accually, all of eep's posts had a point, they werent just
complaints
Facter: hes gotta get his anger out soemhow :)
Facter: and
SW Comit: lol pudgy
Facter: hes quite intelligent
SW Chris: he's got a lot of it.
Facter: an idiot, but quite intelligent
Goober King: So smart, he's stupid :)
SW Comit: legless you
SW Chris: intelligence should have some mind to not take out his anger on
the defenseless. But that's another story.
Facter: thats not intelligence
Facter: thats wisdom
Facter: note I did not say he was wise, there is a huge difference :)
SW Chris: I figured the two went hand in hand.
Goober King: That's social intelligence... something that I find a lot of
people are lacking :P
SW Chris: :)
Facter: not at all !
SW Comit: >_<
Facter: wisdom and intelligence are two completly seperate beings
SW Comit: wisdsom is the intellegence of using/applying intellegence
Facter: they go hand in hand with *time* maybe, but its not a given thing
SW Comit: so now what?
SW Comit: ...
Facter: god, look at this world - if intelligence went with wisdom, no one
would of invented an atomic bomb, or they would of buried it forever :)
Goober King: Well, folks... I'm gonna head out... I have much to ponder...
SW Comit: just let fire burn itself out?
SW Chris: We wait. Pray. Continue on with our lives.
Facter: hahaha
Facter: gnite mate
Facter: good seein ya
SW Chris: nice seeing you too. :)
Goober King: You too man... don't be a stranger :)
Syntax: Yea im outta here too..
SW Chris: btw..
SW Comit: adious
SW Chris: if aw does go belly up..
Facter: yeh, i'll try not to..i just wanted a break n all honesty
SW Chris: you will tell us what those plans were right? :)
Syntax: Bye guys
