Secondly, No one ever said that Disney made any announcements about NOT developing new stuff.
Lastly, If they don't do it soon, there won't be anyone here to see it when it comes out. People have short attention spans. In a gamer environment, they need new goals and achievements to keep the game interesting. Sideshows are fun, but not enough to keep everyone's attention for a long period of time. Every single day, we see posts about people leaving to go to other games. Anyone who leaves, spends even a month in a new game, won't just drop everything and come scurrying back because there is a new quest. We all have seen people leaving in droves, and most of them are leaving for other games. But it is more than just that; As a post earlier stated, they aren't even advertising this game on TV anymore, and if you log into DxD, they haven't even updated the news scroller there since Thanksgiving weekend. It still talks about Founders Feast weekend, and GM tavern Takeovers.
I respect Ben's opinion, and I sure hope that he is correct, that there will be something new when they release the UK version. The fear is that it may be too late to save things here.

I don't agree with you Basil.
First off, to me this is a rant, even if you don't intend for it to be one, it could be interpreted as one. This isn't me griefing either, this is just my opinion and how I look at it. Yes I know I said I was tired of it, but I'm not leaving it anytime soon. Only reading and expecting negative comments on this isn't the best way to address this to Disney. Ben and Sven both agree with me, you can't exclude our opinions from this issue, (it appears that way to some).
Second of all, the way everyone so far has posted, it sounds like they all think they aren't working on it, like Poison Elf said in his last post on this.
And lastly... There are those that even if they don't bring in new updates for a while they WILL come back when they finally do. And that's from from my expeirience. They haven't stopped advertising for the game completely either. AOL Instant Messenger continually runs ads for the game, thats how I found out about it in the first place. I believe it was Ben who said it, that if they stopped running ads for it on TV, there's a pretty good reason for it. As to the scrolly bar, as far as I've seen that has hardly ever been updated. There used to be things running from July in September.
Ben has it right IMO (and again this is MY OPINION, remember that) Disney is working on it, but they work slow, give them time, and if you don't have time, maybe you should take a short break from the game. POTCO is NOT meant to be played 24/7.
