    Lol good one..

    Cue the double standards b:chuckle

    Frankly I find the rule of not mentioned other MMO's here questionable.

    Sure full reviews etc should not be written about on these forums. You have websites for that. However mentioning the name only would imho not be that harmful.
    To assume I speak for other is assuming I am those folks.
    Well, I can tell you right now: I am all but myself.

    Who ever is willing to pay them money then I can understand why they allow it. If you know your product is better than who cares about advertising for the competetion.
    tatuaje: grinding mobs and zhenning ???
    frankieraye:All right, I admit it, it's a bit retro. lol.

    ads are probably syndicated in so PWE have no direct involvement other than including the ad code on the forums pages. What you see is also dependent on locality - i see UK based advertising for example Bank of Scotland, etc

    I don't see the double standard - the discussions of other games that spring up on the forum are usually so and so game has this feature or is that amazing.. to the denegration of PWI i.e it is usually people who wish to downplay PWI who raise these threads.

    If this makes you laugh - good for you. Personally I don't think it is that amusing.

    Yeah, blame the ad provider. Always remember that the keyword is MMO, so of course other MMOs would be presented in ads.

    Good find though. XD
    Maintenance time. Please choose a line:
    - When is it over? OMG I need my fix!! *super spazzing*
    - Fix the damn bugs, dammit! I'm so angry! I'll quit!!
    - New codes out there? I like free stuff~ *wink*
    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.
    - *Incessant poking on Sweetiebot* Fun~
