cmf have you ever tried to withdraw money from World of Warcraft or any other game that you put money into ?? Just checking I didnt think so give them time I was a old play and recently returned to the game and I was able to withdraw my money without any problems of course there is a fee to do this but ya know at least if your lucky enough to turn a profit in the game which im sorry its not likely since if everyone turned a profit the game would not exist then you can count yourself a lucky person to be able to have the ability to do so. Too too many people go into this game with dollar signs in there eyes expecting to be the next news article that was able to make a cool million dollars off virtual items. In reality its a game , enjoy it for a game, pay for it just like you do all the other MMOs out there and dont worry about profits, and money loss. You are spending it anyway even if its not with Mindark it will be with Sony or some other company.

My view is this how is PE any different from any other game that requires money to play. Take for example WoW you pay 15 bucks a month do they give it back to you no do they offer even a chance to give it back to you no. So what is the big deal with there is a chance that you will loose your money. I say pay your 15 bucks a month enjoy the game for what its worth and if you make a profit so be it if not who cares you would have spent the money on another game anyway and oh btw you wouldnt have had the chance to get it back.

I have played PE and Latter EU for a very long time 5 to 6 years (I lost count).
I can’t lie I made a lot of money with the service because I invested mostly in very rare items. So far I have took out 38,000 dollars (USD) and MA has deposited that into my bank account , I still have another 50,000 dollars in EU not counting skills ( Mod fap, Eon shadow set).

I have to admit the profits came mostly from other players wanting to buy my rear items, and for the masses its hard to break even let alone profit. By the way Jon and Tina where really good friends and I used to be in their society “Warrants” a very long time ago. I remember when Jon sold all his items to try to buy Treasure Island and lost the bid at the last second to Deathifer.

I can’t lie I am currently in the process of selling out my other items but I have to say that EU/ PE has been really good to me for the years I have been playing. I have invested maybe 10,000 to 15,000 dollars in the early years and have already took out 38,000 and still have 50,000 worth to sell.

Comment on What iPhone apps developers should know (but don’t)! by TinyPirate

^ Damn! You’re right! Never blog when tired I guess.

I should note that recently the Apps store on the iPhone has done a much better job of handling screenshot display (it’s more clear when there’s more than one) and in general it seems that developers themselves are doing better at putting up a selection of good screenshots from their products. Good stuff.
