    Lots of negative propaganda being permitted on the forum lately over non issues. If I bought stock, I'd be most concerned about that. The bugs have always been around so they're not changing things.

    its probably still ok cause u get QQers still playing and interested enough to stay on the forums. Better stocks than wasting on boutique stuff.

    Here's one opinion I found:

    "The good news here is that Wall Street already expects these companies to deliver shrinking bottom lines. In other words, the bad news is already baked into the shares."

    lol, not really something to come on here bragging about. Although there is no way to WIN at this game (unless you own the PWE bank acc no), you buying shares was just a EPIC LOSE!

    Maybe we could get one of these epic cash shoppers to buy the company outright and fix all the bugs in the game. Maybe the economy as well while they're at it...

    I mean if you've got a large enough disposable income might as well invest something on your hobby...

    Um... I'd guess that PW-Beijing's value is measured in millions, at least.

    And the last time I checked, there still wasn't anyone who had spent even 100,000$ on the game.

    Unless of course it just happens that one of the major cash shoppers is in fact someone on the Forbes List, I'd say that it's unlikely that any of the cash shoppers have the kind of money to buy companies.
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.

    I'm not a cash shopper. There is no economy problem. Again with the propaganda.

    Lol, you're right... Although for argument's sake they would only need to get controlling interest, which could be well under 51% of stock in a power sharing deal in which they'll give their vote to whatever interest group controls the company as long as PW gets funneled a certain amount of money and a special administration... Say under half a billion dollars? Thre's quite a bit of people that spend that kind of dough on luxury yachts, houses, even private islands... Some of them even under Forbe's radar---

    Now, i don't actually believe anyone would be crazy enough to actually throw a small fortune into an MMO. Someone so obsessed and with that kind of money would probably want to design his/her own game, which i have long suspected is how many ideas, both brilliant and terrible, have made their way to MMOs... Although probably only as nothing more than strongly conditional "suggestions" by investors... Now, there are many games out there being worked upon with budgets similar to Indie films, including a couple of MMOs.

    ~_~ $100,000...? Isn't there like a point in the game where you hit a ceiling on what you could possibly do with your money?

    Something that I struck me was:

    Michael Chi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Perfect World:

    The slight sequential revenue decline in the second quarter was primarily due to our efforts to decelerate some promotional and monetization activities within our games, in order to further nurture our games and lengthen the lifecycles.
