Økokrim came into and shutdown the Funcom offices, then went thru the companies records and took what they needed for a full investigation. The reason is, Funcom did not make any stock exchange messages since its Q3 financial report, which revealed a downturn in revenue from 10.9 million to 5.3 million. Offices opened up the next day following the raid and business as back to normal. The company’s stock exchange suspension has been resolved. “Production on all Funcom games continues as normal, and the company remains fully committed to games in development as well as the continued operation and updating of existing live games,” “Yesterday’s events are not expected to have any impact on the company’s continued operation or the development on future releases.” Second Artical: http://www.vg247.com/2014/01/30/funcom-developer-fully-co-operating-with-okokrim-business-as-usual/ Star Wars Galaxies “Even more trollin… I mean teasing* https://twitter.com/j_smedley/status/430746845317300224 https://twitter.com/j_smedley/status/430746909276246016 “ex SWG players.
