I'm with George on this one... I won't argue that you could call Ark a successful planet partner - besides calypso its the best one out there, they have made some decent content and are moving forward. But than again - if your point of reference is NI/RT... It's hard to judge...
Some ppl called NI successful too, until the not so great owner decided to quit (probably lost quite a lot of money as well). So yeah, I agree with George that you cannot call them successful if you haven't really seen any annual reports or anything.
Just a hypothetical question - if their situation isn't that well in numbers, how long before something bad happens? What if they cannot significantly increase the player-base? And if so, how long before the investors decide it's not worth pumping in extra money anymore? I'm 99% sure their numbers doesn't look so good, Ark's player-base is still very small and they are spending a lot of money on development.
P.S. don't forget one of the unwritten rules of business - you don't tell your customer, that are doing bad...
P.S.S. How many of you have lost in banks or investment opportunities or something like that IRL? And how many of you were told "everything is fine" up until the point of bankruptcy?
