    ....the dices where rolling again it seems ^^




    "Gothenberg Sweden, Sept. 23, 2011 - Following a vote of the shareholders MindArk is pleased to announce
    the appointment of Jan Welter Timkrans as the Chairman of the Board of MindArk, PE AB, and the
    promotion of David Simmonds to the position of CEO of Mindark, PE AB.
    As the visionary and former CEO behind the World Record setting Entropia Universe, Timkrans is well suited
    to take the helm of the Board of Directors as MindArk focuses on taking Entropia Universe to the next level.
    Replacing Mr. Timkrans as CEO of MindArk is David Simmonds, former Business Development Director for
    MindArk. Mr. Simmonds’ extensive knowledge of, and senior-level involvement in, all aspects of MindArk
    and Entropia Universe puts him in a unique position to lead the day to day business of the company and
    implement the vision.
    “The shareholders have told us they are ready to take the company to the next level by installing a new
    board with a great knowledge of the business and a commitment to our long term vision of success,” said
    Mr. Timkrans. “I am very happy to have David Simmonds step into the role of CEO so that I can continue to
    focus on the vision for Entropia Universe going forward to make the next ten years even more rewarding
    for players, Planet Partners, shareholders and employees.”

    I dont expect anything but the status quo we are used to. At best we may get to see pictures of these guys in the castle celebrating holidays gettin their drunk on and showing a cheesy smile for us to see how successful EU is for them. More copy paste crap from every other game gettin dumped on us while longer crap loot swings for all and larger loot ubers for the "Special" players that have been favored since day one.

    At least the Arkadian team is trying to work with us to make EU playable for our needs and not just the over all take for the house.
