    Uh, he actually got the correct "their" in there. They're hard to tell apart, I know!

    I'ld think so, or at least hope so imo
    I still don't think this is going to happen. As much as people want to solo/duo SFs/TFs, the devs seem resolute about them being team-based challenges, despite the workarounds you can do to "solo" one.

    I read an article today that EVE Online just shut down 6200 accounts for such things.

    Me too, although some might take umbrage at my post count and number of 50s.

    Ok, maybe it did exist, but it wasn't so "in your face". Admit it, we didn't have RMT spam/emails before the market was introduced. Amirite?

    Unfortunately, the industry has conditioned gamers to expect constant graphical updates in games. Gameplay frequently takes a back seat to visual effects. New games with older graphics are dinged for it, and older games with awesome gameplay are ignored because they look dated.

    Except for Starcraft.

    They should make the day jobs an iPhone app, so you can play your day job when you're not playing your characters.

    I wanted to call this out, because I found this to be true. But you have to =look= for them and =try them out= to find out if they're good or not.

    So I guess the answer to the OP's question is "Jack is a long-departed developer who is the object of a ridiculous self-perpetuating hatred among certain CoX forum-goers."
    This one gets my vote, as it aligns with my creamy, ideological center.
