尊敬的第九城市魔兽世界团队全体员工： 我本人于4月15日曾发信给各位，我们即将失去魔兽世界中国的代理权，在过去的20多个工作日中，我们的员工依然不为外界的各种诱惑、传闻所动，继续忘我的为魔兽世界中国玩家提供着最为优质的服务！今天，我再次向各位致以我最崇高的敬意；我为拥有如此团队和员工而倍感自豪！ 5月12日，汶川周年祭之日，举国哀悼，可是作为我们的合作方暴雪公司竟然在这种时刻自定发布所谓“补丁”，并未做及时说明，导致各**媒体、玩家矛头均指向我公司。此刻，我向那些仍加班加点奋斗在CallCenter的客服代表表示最亲切的问候，大家辛苦了！暴雪公司私自修改用户协议，同时又与国内某著名游戏公司联手，向我公司索要玩家数据及充值消费记录。对于如此高度机密的企业核心数据，对方竟然再次厚颜无耻的提出：我们可以支付部分费用！再这里，我再次引用上次说过的那句话：对于这样的条件，我们没有接受，我们也无法接受。至此，我公司做出决定，暂时关闭魔兽世界全区全服服务器，我们将一如既往的为魔兽世界中国的所有玩家，争取应得的利益！现在我公司的商务代表团队已经开始同暴雪及国内某著名游戏公司一起，在上海开始新一轮谈判。在谈判未有阶段性成果之前，我们将不再开放服务器！敬请所有用户理解，再次感谢八百万玩家四年来的风雨相伴！。您希望所致，即我们目标所达。第九城市将会为每一位玩家争取到他们应得的权益！最后这句话送与每一位第九城市的员工，予以自勉：我们是优秀的，我们曾经自豪并且快乐的工作着，我们是不平凡的一群，彼此紧密相连，像兄弟姐妹般无间，在最需要的时刻彼此互相扶持，我们共同面对挑战，共同接受磨砺。第九城市，将继续巍然屹立！陈晓微 看了之后不知道大家有没有想法，如果这是真的，那么网易的卑鄙令人发指，九城却在忍受着玩家的怒骂，可是谁又知道真正的凶手却在背后利用我们玩家来对付九城……

At this moment, I am still working overtime to those who struggle in the customer service representative CallCenter the most cordial greetings, we have worked hard!
Blizzard private company to amend the user agreement, at the same time, with the joint efforts of a well-known game company to ask for our players and the top consumer data records. For such a core of highly confidential data, the other party has once again raised brazen: We can pay part of the cost!

You want a result that we reached the goal. City will be the ninth player to win each and every of their rights and interests deserve!

I do not know after reading there thinking, if this is true, the despicable heinous Netease, NINETOWNS but the players put up with ridicule, but who know the real killer was behind the use of our players to deal with NINETOWNS ... ...

So if I understand well the servers are closed untill the9 get money from blizzard.

If someone can give us a more accurate translation would be interesting...[strike]

sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!! how long are we gonna wait?????...
stupid the9

Is this for real? I mean, it's just a forum post. Maybe it was just some angry rant. I can't really verify the legality of it. Any Chinese-readers who can?

Dude, that's like a battle cry...
"And they Alliance shall not prevail! If tonight these gnomes die, it's because they suck $!@ and don't deserve to live!
Unless Varian Wyrn pays us... We spit on them! /spit
For the Horde!"
Srys... These guys are going to be arrested, I bet they just play WoW all day at their offices, now they're power hungry for free GM powers...

with the joint efforts of a well-known game company to ask for our players and the top consumer data records. For such a core of highly confidential data, the other party has once again raised brazen: We can pay part of the cost!

well...this doesn't look good....

the despicable heinous Netease

and then goes on to blame Netease for his own bad business decisions. Brilliant! Haha. I hope the asshat loses his ass in this deal.

May 12, anniversary of the date of Wenchuan, national mourning, but as our partners in the Blizzard company has self-released this time of the so-called "patch" that does not do a timely manner, resulting in the ** media players spearhead all point to our company.

CWOW and an earthquake have something in common? Isn't Tuesday always patch day. Yeah...I'm sure blizzard intentionally planned that.....

Ok my wife explained me the message.

So basically it s the leader of the9 who said they had a disagreement with netease about the transfer of the account information of the wow players. To make simple they find netease wanna pay too little money, the9 wants more and they won't open the servers untill an agreement will be found. This means last time we connected was perhaps the last time we saw our characters... unless they get the money they reclaim.

This is for real, and yes this is sad.

Greed. The reason the9 lost the contract in the first place. Serves them right. Too bad we'll all likely suffer the repercussions of said CEO's ego.

what a crap letter...blaming others...I must remind myself, I'm still in kommunist country and if my property is seized by someone I must balme my self first, why the **** i moved to this place in first place.

i should remember the CEOs name also... will punch in face if i meet him somwhere.. haha

So to cheer up a little I will translate a post picked randomly on chinese forum :

草泥马9C ！！！泥马了*的一帮吃人饭不干人事的东西！！！

motherfucker 9town!!! you eat like a human but you don t act like a human !!!

CHHHEEEEERS

LOL

oh by way, i play wowchina, i just logged and it works

oh it's not too bad, i am just loosing 2 years, 4 full equiped lvl70's aint that bad.
we all shouldnt complain, we should know better, that things like this happen in this country and there's not much we can do about it.

ahhhhhhh hope this ...hole never crosses my way, cause if he does he will wish never to be born.

IF our characters are gone(sigh)........OMG.............the next time we log in lets make a guild on a SAME server with all the foreigners here. This is the time to unite and since we got nothing to loose there should be no hesitation =)

i just pray, that we all have our accounts transfered correctly...

Yay I called him and said I would send him a red envelop with 1million rmb.

If anyone has in their haste not noticed, that post was posted by a new user with a total amount of 2 posts, saying that it is a "relay of a real message". The message has never been on the official site nor in any other way presented to us.

It's your own choice to believe it or not. Even though 9C did not give us an explanation for all this hastle I don't exactly trust that this message is accurate at all. There are tons of rumors and even more people taking advantage of this situation ~~~
Please don't simply believe anything that is out there
