quotes or it didn't happen. a link is fine too.
On another note, now that I read the quote, technically (and I do mean TECHNICALLY) Emi never says that this is the persistent server nor says that this is not the round server. Only because resets were never officially 100% announced everyone assumed that this was the persistent world. Just my 2c.
It's really a question of expectations.
I do have a recollection of having seen the posts which are discussed, but the perception and hence the expectation which I had for the first month while I played the game was that I was playing a persistent game on a persistent server.
That was my expectation, and I believe that it was the expectation of the vast majority of players, and it was an expectation which had been reinforced though perhaps not 100% confirmed by Sir Emi.
Another perception - this is a hacker game. Tomorrow it may be turned into a game about pokemons jumping around the place. Nowhere has it been stated that it will not be, and in fact it would not be against the TOS for this to happen. But our expectations is that this will be a hacker based game which will evolve in that sort of universe.
The expectation of persistence has been now dismissed, and as a direct consequence I'm less interested in the game today than I was a month ago but I am still here. We'll see how things evolve. What was or was not said at this point is largely (though not completely) irrelevant. We need to deal with the fact of the Faith/Revelation thing. We'll see how things go.
I'm also very interested in knowing whether if we nuke all the truelight servers it would stop Revelation from happening altogether though ;-)
