Title: Entropia claims 200k users and property that sells for $26k Post by: eldaec on December 18, 2004, 12:32:26 PM Some lazy journalism...
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4104731.stm 200k users actually turns out to be 186k downloads of the client since launch. $26k is actually 260k in entropia currency, the scary bit is that the player presumably had the option of actually withdrawing $26k in cash instead of making the 'purchase'.

This is Information Superhighway Robbery. Entropia is a pyramid scheme with a game as interface.
186k client downloads. Yep, count me as one of those who downloaded and never paid a cent for their walking simulator.

It's just goddamn insulting to developers who actually add in the "game portion" of the MMORP...well, the developers that at least TRY....anyway....
