Hello again boys and girls... guess what, E N Z O actually wrote back this time! Well, isn't that a first!

Here's what he had to say:


Hi Daniel,

While I am sorry to hear that you feel that JP and I are incompetent and
"have done more damage to AW than anyone ever has before", (*wondering where
YOU were when Worlds was shutting it down*) I can agree with your feelings
about AW.

I am unsure as to where this rumor about AW started but please be assured
that it is untrue.

Don't believe everything you hear either about me or AW,

Rick Noll

CEO
Activeworlds Corp.

Well, it is a relief to hear that, and I sure hope he's letting the truth, but I really don't know what to think, seeing as they
have LIED, LIED, and LIED again so many times in the past. And I STILL stand by my opinion of their incompetence and of their damage
to AW. If they actually do go through with the "rumor" after stating this is would be even worse than anything they have done
before. Now all we can really do is sit and wait until the next time AW management decides they want to rape the citizens up AW up
the ass.

Oh, and by the way, Mr. Noll, if I'm not mistaken I WAS there when world was shutting it down and I recall news that there was a
competing bid (I think it was Protag and Da5id), so much for you being the "saviors" of AW you'd like to make yourself out to be.

I think I'll give him a call one of these days to clarify why I shouldn't believe what I hear about him.

Tell me what you guys think....

Buying out a company doesn't immediately make you a competant management..

You have to be actively participating in your product's development and
listen to your users. Telling them you're going broke because you're salary
is too high isn't what you do. Someone said that the founder of IBM *I
think* took a pay cut down to $1 until his company could get out of debt.

It's not that they're incompetant personally, but most of their management
decisions are. If you're losing money you don't rise prices, you lower them
in hopes to get more of a userbase and gradually increase it back, thus
creating more profit then you had before. But I agree with most of what you
said..

Well, it's a good thing that this was settled. It still could have been
done with some class instead of calling AW's management "idiots," however.
Guess the policy was changed since January.

Well I for one disagree with posting publicly an email you received privately.....unless both parties agree to the posting..... I
consider it very rude. I guess you'll form a better opinion once it happens to you for the first time....:)

Hi everyone:

[View Quote] While I also agree that posting *private* email in a *public* newsgroup,
wasn't very smart as it *is* against the rules of proper netiquette, I stand
by my earlier comments which I made in the old thread on this subject.

Aside from that, I'll save the tar and feathers for a more useful purpose.
:-)

Cheers... :-)

It's the rule of thumb to running a business. If you want more money, get
more users. The only way to do that is to lower your price to an affordable
to all level then gradually raise it back up to it's original state. So say
lower it to $10 a year.. then raise it up $5 a year after the first year
until it gets to about $25. Not only will most of the userbase stay you'll
end up with a lot more people then you had originally. Then there's the
people that buy a lot of cits.

Anyone who's taken an economics course would understand that.
