Interview: Jon “Neverdie” Jacobs On How To Pay Respects to the Passed Through Virtual Worlds

i totally agree with what you say here "The Business End of Club NEVERDIE has always been turnkey, except the event planning which is pretty Fun, but Setting up NEVERDIE Studios to produce Virtual Worlds can put the Spotlight on My Avatar NEVERDIE and there are some people who don’t feel like I should be able to continue to play the game if I am also a Developer… I don’t agree with this at all, even though I understand that people think perhaps I have an unfair advantage as a player, the reality is, even if those advantages exist, I don’t think its something I would be looking to exploit.. If at the end of the day becoming a developer prevents me from playing the game the way its meant to be played, then I would have to say yes the business is getting in the way."

to me you've always done the reverse of exploit. You throw money away to help especially new people have fun and enjoy the world. Seriously like after the big market push you log in and join and Opalo team of newbs it will make there day and give them a great memory and experience.

I know for myself I remember the first day we met Before Treasure Island before CND. It was like 1-2 months after they put Gamer Chick into then Project Entropia. What was the coolest thing was when I seen you at Auction in the little hut at Camp Echidna and said "Hi" you said hi back and actually talked to me about your dream of having a club that you could stream your own music at. Along with many other "ubers" would talk to me and teach me which i intern wanted to teach to others and is a big reason why i focused on mentoring (before we even had a mentor system).

You goto other games as a new player and you get made fun of and called newb. Ubers dont care your nothing to them. But here ubers all want newbs to stay and have fun because we all have a invested interest.

Same goes for talking to Hanne (previously known as Skam) on Calypso. it's great just to run into her and say hey this looks great or why not tweak this. People will always remember the day they met NEVERDIE ingame or Lemmy or anyone who is a icon of Entropia.

I have to agree RexDameon, I thought it was pretty cool on maybe my third day of playing that I ran into NEVERDIE in ZalMG's shop and actually got a response from him when chatting. Then I think a couple of days later the planet partner issue popped up.
