TC Closes shop for good (http://news.com.com/2110-1017-949044.html?tag=cdshrt)

cp:

Online chat company Talk City has shut down its Web site and filed for Ch. 7 bankruptcy. Talk City, whose assets MyESP.com bought last year from LiveWorld, shuttered the site Monday and laid off two employees, said Robert Young, chief executive officer of both companies. Talk City filed for bankruptcy on Friday, Young said.
Young blamed the closure and bankruptcy on a legal dispute between LiveWorld and MyESP, a holding company whose primary asset was Talk City. LiveWorld sued MyESP in January, seeking to collect money it alleged MyESP owed under a purchase agreement, LiveWorld said in a regulatory filing. Young said Talk City couldn't afford the cost or the management distraction involved in continuing the litigation. Prior to being sold to MyESP, Talk City went through several rounds of layoffs, including a 30 percent job cut last year.

You see, Layoffs DON'T Work!

:lol Ayup, I suppose that is one way to look at it. :)

No loss at all. Never liked Talk City in the slightest.

Have to admit, some good players came out of there, but the place seemed more a place for over homoned 14 y.o's.

I agree. Do any of you here roleplay on starchat? I'm just curious as its nothing like tc was. More adult oriented and they have some really excellent rpers there. Vivid descriptive posts much like what you see here actually. No, Im not trying to get anyone to go there, Just curious if anyone here does.
