Rumor? // General DiscussionsilencedApr 5, 2002, 6:21pm
There's a rumor going around that AW has lost a lot of money recently. Is
this true? If it is.. all I need to say is, "I told you so." --Bowen-- silencedApr 5, 2002, 6:36pm

No rumor. It's all in black and white for all to see. And this was all
*before* they raised prices! God only knows how much they've lost since then... >http://awnews.com/html/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=271&mode=flat&order=0 [View Quote] > There's a rumor going around that AW has lost a lot of money recently.

AW went to court with Juno!? Holy....never knew that....they actually got a
lot of cits from juno actually so that kinda sucks for them... [View Quote] pc hamsterApr 11, 2002, 2:36am
Hi everyone:
[View Quote] Yeah NO DOUBT because it was BECAUSE of Juno and its constant advertising that I discovered ActiveWorlds (and ultimately became a citizen!). Oh well....Score one more world for Adobe Atmosphere as I would bet that before long, JunoDome will pop up on that universe instead. :-) Cheers :-) Patrick filmkrApr 18, 2002, 1:16am

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit All stocks have been down this year, although AW's is down for it's own lack of management and marketing... but the U.S. Economy does play a small factor... But be upset at yourself that you did not buy it at .45 and sell at .68 during it's spike when JP buys back stocks to make it look like there is interest in the company stock... If you note items from the past. AWLD has previously announced buy back decisions to attempt stock purchase interest. I never saw it work for them though because at the core investors look at the company's plan and AW in all these years still fails to market to the public. Again I note... no advertising on television, no product bundling, no retail boxed software sales off the shelves. If they want to learn how to market, perhaps they should run to Best Buy and purchase a copy of the SIMMS and read the box. LOL When we offered AW a 30 second commercial for television the reply was "we will try radio first" Nothing like selling color TV's to the blind... That more explains their stock failure... Investors want to see potential... The software has it... but management lacks the insight to get the job done. In all these years they have failed when they could have easily had hundreds of thousands of users in here... it's so simple... They need to wake up and start understanding their market share and quit trying to convince corporations who see right through them. This is not a corporate toy... and because they are dinning the wrong clientele while beating up their actual users they will continue to fail to reach their potential user base... I could easily bring in 100,000 new users by years end... probably more like 1 million... Like I said, it is simple... and please... don not ask me "why don't you then" It's business... and I don't do marketing or commercials for free *S* But if they ever got serious we would accept an escrow account and upfront certified funds. Not interested in chasing funds anymore... been there, done that... wastes our time.
