Brock Pierce Goes Legit? Yantis buys IGE? Cats and Dogs Living Together?

It would seem that, very recently, the following took place.

1. Affinity Media sold legendary money pit, IGE. To whom? I have reason to believe that it might have been sold back to Jonathan Yantis - 3 years after IGE acquired Yantis' company.

2. Affinity Media continues to own Allakhazam. Brock Pierce, aka Rosemary's Baby, still owns Affinity Media and Allakhazam.
 
3. As such, Affinity Media/Brock Pierce is leaving the slave trade/gold exchange market in it's current capacity.

4. And our old friend Yantis will continue to be the scum of the earth, only with a bigger name.

Does that make sense? I can't make this sort of stuff up, folks.

Yantis was in my old EQ guild for a short time...the guy was a complete scumbag. Also, his view of how the game worked was completely warped, mostly due to the fact that he basically had an infinite amount of plat to play with.

Interesting stuff.

It's been a long time in the making. It's been one bad business decision after another but it sounds like at least someone is getting back on track.

Actually, isn't anyone involved in this scum of the earth? Brock Pierce being a pedophile doesn't help, either. They should all die in a diaper fire.

It wouldn't surprise me that the gold farming business takes a certain type of person to do well. Maybe it could not be corporatized. There are similar examples in real business but I doubt anyone cares about those. All I will say is that Celestial Seasonings was sold by its founder three times over about 15 years.

I'm sure everybody has seen this already, but it's still funny YEARS later. NSFW.
