Our time is gone, TR is over.
Here is a fond memory......



Save Earth, Save Our World!

Save Tabula Rasa!


Thank Voorhes for his assistance at my request to convert this NCSoft Tabula Rasa Trailer into Flash media for purposes of this Constitutionally protected news, information, and inspirational incentive use on the front page of these forums.

*Conspicuous Copyright and Protected Use Notice: The above video is copyright per its respective holders as represented by their logos contained therein, namely NCSoft and Destination Games, and, is displayed here for it's inspirational, newsworthy, informational, and in total, educational purpose to the community-at-large, including but not limited to, Tabula Rasa players using these forums to design and implement a way to save Tabula Rasa, and for no other purpose(s) whatsoever.



And of course the Free Game could wait this long....

I found it amazing that loading my Tabula Rasa (still have it installed) the PlayNC viewer announces the closing of Dungeon Runners on January 10 of 2010...A dunce from the day it came out, free to play with a 5 dollar subscription, and NEVER making money. Waited this long....Just think about that. A game like Tabula Rasa killed due to corporate politics while the company loses money on Dungeon Runners.

Just insult to injury overall. I had someone send me an interest in setting up a server for TR, so anyone has the server side, or knows of one already set up, let me know, I've Jonesed way too long on this. If not, consider, this option too, though not as good:

Second Life allows people to buy a region, has a combat system, and we can build weapons as well. Thus we could maybe get 4 regions (around 1600 USD a month) put them together to form one planet, build it, and then sell monthly subscriptions to our group to pay for the monthly fee. No it wouldn't be the same but at least the idea of this isn't lost and maybe we can generate enough interest as well as find enough talent to rev....er...discover a means by which we can set up a server.

Further, this could lead to a mass following of the game, similar to "the hunger" from Second Life, due to release on Xbox and Wii as well.

I mean, we can't help it NCSoft is a perfect Peter Principle corporation, that, combined with its corrupt politics, denies consumers an overall worthwhile workproduct in markets outside of Korea. GuildWars is no exception as it was conceptually set in motion when the founders of Arenanet worked for Blizzard as their vision of "WOW." In other words, the ones made by Americans succeeded in America, the ones made in Korea, succeed in Korea. It clearly appears that Tabula Rasa was denied it's chance due to the interests of Arenanet to gain a financial stake in NCSoft Korea, and the incompetence of the Korea corporation is the entire cause of what happened, to not keep Arenanet in check here in the U.S.

So let's do what we can to get the game operating again, wherever and however, as I am sure it will generate interest, and that we, WE can get people to the servers.

Oh and if NCSoft wants to come in after the fact and play some legal games, please NCSoft let me know. You divested yourself of the interest in this the moment you held us to an unconscionable contract where we have no rights but only obligations, and you claimed ownership of everything without any obligation or responsibility to us, including, but not limited to, failing to listen to one word we said to you, failing to assure the success of this game through proper advertisement, and by you, NCSoft, failing to make certain that whoever was in charge in North America would carry out their duties with the goal of success for all NCsoft games and not just their pet GuildWars succeeding. Thus by denial of recognizing any rights in us as subscribed users exchange for our property via the ownership rights vested in our property (money) exchanged for value in likekind, you waived any and all claims whatsoever to anything relating to Tabula Rasa upon shutdown of the servers, meaning, by not respecting the property rights of those who paid you and acknowledging such lack of respect by closure of Tabula Rasa without return of our property, you in parallel failed to respect your ownership along with any and other righs whatsoever in Tabula Rasa. By legal appearance shutting down the game is and remains your agreement that you so acted in the manner described in the previous 2 sentences toward those who paid you money and were playing Tabula Rasa.

Should NCSoft wish to contest or otherwise deny or demurrer to these factual statments of the legal significance and appearance of their actions, NCSoft has 3 days to set forth, by verified posting to this website, how the rights of the paying subscribed user were vested by and through their account and that these rights were respected, or NCsoft otherwise agrees the property rights of the subscribed users who were playing Tabula Rasa were not respected and that this act renders the NCSoft Terms of Service an unconscionable contract to which they subject themselves equally by shutting down the game and divesting all rights of all parties whatsoever in relation to Tabula Rasa.

NCSoft Further agrees that failure to set forth the same in a certain, specific, genuine and authenticated manner within 3 days of this posting is their express agreement nihil dicit, in whole and in part, to each and every statement made hereof, and NCSoft further agrees that this posting is public notice pursuant to their previous willingness, and actually having replied, to myself via my email address through their Vice President of North American Operations some 2 weeks after submitting the subscribed user proposal to keep Tabula Rasa open, and NCSoft further agrees that any and all claims made after expiration of these 3 days ending at Midnight November 17th, 2009, shall be subject to their express agreement nihil dicit by failure to provide such a quality of evidence of NCSoft's recognition of vested property rights equal to the value of property rights in the payment obligations they set forth, enforce, and make certain are agreed to by the subscribed users of Tabula Rasa prior to access to the Tabula Rasa property, and that such failure to contest these claims prior to Midnight November 17th, 2009, results in NCSoft's agreement to their admission that NCSoft has no evidence to support any superior claim to property rights whatsoever in the property known as Tabula Rasa in relation to the property rights of the subscribed users who paid to play Tabula Rasa and received no vested rights by and through their payment of money that is vested with such property rights, and that this denial is accomplished by the NCSoft Terms of Service and End User License Agreement, where the lack of such vested property right render each instrument, viewed separately or together, as lacking both, the elements of exchange by equality, and meeting of the minds by full disclosure, necessary to render these instruments conscionable and enforceable.
