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."

I mean recently, because of their "business expert's" great decisions.

Have a look at a three month chart of their stock:

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...

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 :-)

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.
