Re: Support an indy MMO project

10 grand? Pocket change. The first team I worked with on a true MMO spent well over $500,000.00 just to beta up with artists, programmers, writers, and the like. It's how I got started in the gaming world and that project failed.

Not to be a naysayer, but if you are serious about a truly competetive MMO, you will need to pony up easily over a million and coming to a place of mostly free playing gamers or light spending gamers isn't the spot to ask for investors.

My advice. Take a few courses in business marketing at the local college for some ideas of how to gain investors and present business plans.

Good Luck!
