Anarchy Online is one of the longest running MMO's in the world. Over the years it obviously lost some players and nowadays only a small fraction remains loyal to the game.
The game is deep, full of awesome experiences and adventures to be taken, but unfortunately (specially in the last 2 years) the game is experiencing some serious issues.
Exploiting and cheating players are a reality, a reality that sadly is killing the game at a fast pace. The remaining players feel betrayed, left alone, with no one to support them or fight this issue. We understand that the game is financially viable, but not viable enough to make new content, at least for the time being. To be honest, we think content is not that big of a deal, Anarchy Online has several raids, quests, PvP, an enormous number of possibilities that were created over the years to enjoy. Obviously we would love to see new adventures created, but we understand it's not a priority right now.
What we want, and what we need to enjoy the game to the fullest, is to see the game "clean". Funcom needs urgently to add more Game Masters to control the game, Funcom also must work on removing this exploits that are ruining the experience. Petitions take hours and hours to be addressed and most of the time nothing comes out of it. Players exploit in brought daylight, they mock the company for not doing anything and the worst of all is that we keep seeing those players online, not banned, with nothing at all being done. If removing the exploits isn't possible for now, because that takes resources, staff, etc., at least ban those cheaters, control them, be focused on your job!
It's absolutely not enough to leave the servers running, there must be more control and more dedication to this game. We need this, we deserve this. Otherwise subscriptions will eventually be cancelled, the game won't be financially viable and Anarchy Online will die. We don't want that, and we bet you also don't want that to happen.

I have been reading your comments and it is clear that many of you feel the same heartbreak over seeing our game ruined by unchecked exploits. My time in these servers meant everything to me but watching the current state of things makes it hard to log in. I am working on getting our concerns directly in front of the team at Funcom because our silence only guarantees that nothing will change.

Seeing this kind of momentum confirms that I am not the only one mourning the game I used to love. It feels like we are finally pulling our heads out of the sand to demand the fair environment we deserve.

You don't have to make AO great again, just "clean" it a bit. No programmers to fix the exploit? I'm sure GMs can keep the people abusing the exploits banned.
It saddens me to think that a game that I love and played for many years it's going the wayside because of inaction. This needs to be rectified.
Game will be dead within a year if the exploits aren't addressed. People are quitting in droves as it is. Omni stopped doing world pvp because of the tower exploits, now people are getting their accounts hacked and those of us who stay have to deal with people using the twink swap tool and completely screwing the game up. FC you're still making money off this game, you better make some effort to fix the glaring issues or you'll be without a playerbase to pay your bills very quickly.
Please. The game is not going to be self-sufficient for long if no action is taken.
Bump!! We need control ingame versus cheaters! Most of players plays this game for way to much time to give up now for some stupid reasons.
my favorite game of all, fix AO or make AO2, really TSW got it shot with SWL not AOs turn!
worth signing, hope some changes are made. I have an idea of how difficult it will be to fix things, but I also know that FC wants AO to stabilize, we'll see.
