When ever you are after a patch for any Sim. Always start at the site
of the people who made the Sim.. i.e. Papyrus.. http://www.pay.com (I
think that's the right URL)

profitable as a business. It could if they changed their vision, but they
choose to simply drop the project. Blame them and only them for lack of
support, lack of add-ons, etc..
I think after all the time you've passed here you would had already
understood that it's not Papyrus but SIERRA ;( Of course if SIERRA never
bought Papyrus they would probably not exist anymore, but that's the way it
is and we have to accept it. For 3milking money products Papyrus has to
create to LIVE and EAT, there will be a gem.

Plus the fact, if Papyrus put out "Sewer Trout Racing" we'd probably buy that too...

They DID!
I have them all :)

I have a hard time with this "NROS was not profitable".
If you are privy to some information we are not, it would sure help your
case :)
$20 a month, times thousands, is a lot of money to keep some servers on
line. If a full-service ISP can do it, I don't see how NROS couldn't be
profitable.
Not to mention all the other games that were 'chipping in' to the cause,
monetarilly.
Of course, if the CEO, or da man in charge, or the 'round-table gang' was
sucking up all the money in salary and bonus's, then failure was imminent.
SOMEBODY made money.

Sierra milked much... some would say half of
that 20$ per month. You after need to pay the employees, the hardware, the
server architecture, the furniture, and the office. All of that from about
a 3000-driver base group.
Everybody lost money, except the greedy SIERRA. Why cancel it ? No idea,
it's their fault totally.

$300,000.00 a _month_ couldn't cover it? Not to mention the _other_ game
players on TEN?
Sorry, I don't get it :)
Unless the suits at Sierra really _were_ taking all the profits. That
certainly is believable.

racers, you wouldn't see $300,000.00 per month unless every one of them was
paying $100.00 per month. If I remember correctly, that wasn't the monthly
fee. <G>

Not new math, BAD math :)
CORRECT Math = $60,000 :)
That's still a lot to keep a few servers running...
