1) As was mentioned above by Mr. Donnelly, they were going for a class action. Why now must everything be secret from the people they said they were trying to represent? Afraid of flak from friends and the WoW community, perhaps?

2) When the Newsome firm had their website up, I think the name was MMO Citizen, they asked for the community to help out in gathering info about IGE. I know myself and a couple other friends sent in info about IGE we’d gathered by digging around the net. I don’t know if anyone else did, but we did this thinking the suit and the process was a community effort. Granted I probably would have shared any dirt I could find on IGE anyway, but my point is they portrayed this as a suit for the community and asked for community help, which was given. I guess it kinda makes sense that their website was taken down. Even so I still sent in info disputing the claim that IGE was no longer in the RMT business.

3) While I understand Mr. Hernandez needs to do what’s best for him, the manner in which this all happened just stinks to hell for me. It makes me think he was in this for the money from the start as were his lawyers. Is that surprising? No, simply disappointing. If that’s what they were after just structure your actions accordingly from the start and I’d see no problem.

Throughout this entire process it was made clear from the info that was revealed to the public that IGE and namely Mr Pierce uses money to solve all his underhanded and downright dirty issues and here they were able to do it again.

As I understand it, the state of Florida is still investigating them so perhaps that process will bring about a bit of satisfaction for the gaming community.

Outside of that, I hope Newsome took IGE and Pierce for as much as they could get. I wonder if now we’ll see even more individuals and companies filing suit over RMT issues? I for one hope so.
