Thread: I'm a bit concerned about the future of AO and TSW (beer chat itt)

  1. #1

    Wink I'm a bit concerned about the future of AO and TSW (beer chat itt)

    ...due to lack of staff.

    Apparently all of Funcom's Oslo office can ride to work in the same car.

    Must have been patch day.
    Where was it when I first heard that sweet sound of humility?
    It came to my ears in the god damn loveliest melody
    How grateful I was then to be part of the mystery
    To love and to be loved
    Let's just hope that is enough

    Underground parking. ;P

    That said, most people here don't use or even own cars; most folks either bike or take the bus, depending. Owning a car is WAY too damned expensive here in Norway. ><

    Taxes. Lots and lots and lots of taxes. Not to mention the price of gasoline, which is off the charts.

    http://www.nytimes.com/2005/04/29/bu...ht-norway.html <-- This is from a few years ago, but it isn't much different these days.

    (also the price they quote on beer is vastly outdated - it's more like $16 USD for a pint ><)

    Much more important is the FC employees who now must think (when they are doing things that they should not be doing) "are AO fanbois perving me from space via satellite link?".

    I wished Germany would have least half of your riots for politics going nuts... but there is no good beer in france at all, so you don't have to revolt for that .
