This is blantantly false. The developers have stated that the usership was 50/50 CC/EC two
years ago, with growth in the direction of the EC. Client usership is discussed at 3 min 1 sec in the following video.
As Uvtha and I discussed in the other thread, the trend of growth towards the EC would indicate that client use is now majority EC. However, we also have to recognize that the trend toward the EC may have slowed or even reversed.
The devs do not refuse to tell us the real statistics. This is also blantantly false.
The developers have given out the numbers at least 3 times. Shortly after the client first launched when it was stated client use was about 70/30 CC/EC. A year or so later when they stated, much to my surprise, that client use was still about 60/40 CC/EC, and two years ago when Messana stated it was 50/50 CC/EC.
You should remember this Captn, as you posted in the thread where this real statistic was pointed out.
My Analysis for the State of UO Interview with Cliffnotes
It is not that they are not telling us. It is that they must just get sick of all the nonsense. Even when the developers give a factual statement
with numbers, the player base wants to argue, deny the numbers, and/or make things up.
