On the same note I must admit i'm a little concernced with the subscription numbers. Using VGcensus it seems there may only be around 50,000 current subscribers. I mean, this game seems like it took alot of money to make and that you have alot of employees. If subscriptions don't go up dramatically will you be forced to let some people go? What's the number of subscribers you would need to keep things going the way they are now? I'd hate to put 2+ years into this game only to see it dramatically reduced in scope and new content because you don't have enough subscribers to keep all the people you need.
Because more people seem to be leaving than coming in, we've lost i'd say around 8-10 guild members out of about 30 because they didn't resubscribe. Hopefully you can subdue my fears though.
