I can't image. I waited 4 to 5  months only to hear from other sites weeks before when the SOE fan fair will be and it still has not be anounced on the SOE Station Web Site. <img src="/smilies/1069449046bcd664c21db15b1dfedaee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<p>Wow, I guess all those "website" people don't pay for the game either.  They must have information that isn't even official yet.  Why don't you pull up all the information on the next Fan Faire for us on all these websites.</p><p> You know what you'll come up with?  A date and a location that still hasn't been made official.  And on how many sites?  One?  Maybe two?</p><p>edit:  I went and looked.  ONE person on a FORUM site leaked the information.  You didn't see it at TenTonHammer, Warcry, or Zam I'm betting you that.  You are exaggerating the extent to which this information has been relayed.</p>

<p>Hmm.....I agree with the original poster.</p><p> Why are WE the last to know? You haven't announced it, made it official, and I have to get my info from a RUMOR site?</p><p>Darn you SOE for not posting the tentative date, so that a ton of people can take the time off of work, make arrangements, buy tickets and have you change it when its cemented.</p><p>How fair is that to US? You actually WAIT until you have FACTS before alerting the public? You don't rush right out and post dates so when they change the public can start an uproar?</p><p>How DARE you I say. HOW DARE you.</p><p>Especially YOU Ashlanne. The NEXT time you are in a meeting and hear something tentative you go out and make it an OFFICIAL POST MISSY! We don't have TIME to wait for facts, or for you SOE "bigwigs" to actually plan stuff!</p><p>Yeeesh.</p><p>-Coyote</p><p>(*quickly hugs Ashlanne when no one is looking*)</p>

Could you imagine the public outcry if they changed the dates at this point? or the hotel or such because of contract negotiations?? Personally I'm going to make reservations at least for the flight at the end of the month for Vegas and if worse comes to worse I should be able to refund or at least credit a new date (go go 15 dollar travel insurance)

<p>To add to that;</p><p> Can you imagine the public outcry if they changed the dates now - the dates that they didn't even OFFICIALLY release?</p>

I am not talking about SOE website some have mentioned it in IGN, MMORPG. Raven and some others. Ok, It s unofficial but if it is those dates and that place and becomes official. I will listening more to those other sites and spending more time on them since they know what SOE is doing even more then there own SOE Website and give more correct information. RadarX you'll see how right the other sites are I'll bet you its Aug 1-4 Rio Motel  Vegas when it becomes official.  Yes you to RadarX will go to other site to get proper SOE information as apossed to here.

<p>Well despite im not going or considering to go in any near future, i have to agree with the original poster too. When big companies are involved, there allways be rulesand policies that requires some (absurd ) secrecy. But the good thing is that, in this big companies there are always someone willing to give info for free or paid. </p><p>And there will always be someone non corporative that will defend corporative measures.</p>

Radar, here is the link.  I got it from checking the website from time to time.  No clue what fan sites say.  I rarely read them. <a href="http://events.station.sony.com/fanfaire/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://events.station.sony.com/fanfaire/</a>
