Hey! That was pretty cool, Liam! I want Dune Awakening, but, I also am worried about it at the same time. Funcom has a history of basically insulting their honest customers with excessive game policies that just results in them taking out a whole BFG to everyone involved in one person's trolling/griefing approaches. Even the innocent ones. Had this problem in Funcom's Conan, and haven't been back since.
