Gosh people, its not coming back. Hoping won't help, only programming free realms all over again will, and I'm sure none of us kids can.

Wishing someone death for the sake of a flopped game? That's beyond mean-spirited... Not truly wishing for him to die, just the day when he does. Natural causes of course. Like fifty-sixty years+ from now or whatever. Even then, it's human nature to be cruel. You, quite honestly, probably wouldn't even care for the game at that point. If you even remember it..

I wish it was back too. But things pass, everything in life does. It stops, we move on. That's how the world works. Yeah you have a point there but thas dosent mean we have to stop hoping. If we dont give up the hope i belive that FR WILL RETURN!!! thats what i think at least... But i dont know enymore then the rest of us... and at least for me it dosent hurt to look at this web site about one time at the day.

Hello, I think that DayBreak games don't have enough ressource (money) to bring the game... So when DayBreak contact us for the petition and say "we don't have enough ressources to run again the servers..." I have maybe a solution,why don't start a campaign on Kickstarter ? Kickstarter is a platform that you can publish you project and get money from the community to support your project ! If someone agree please reply to this post and maybe sure you signed and shared my petition ! www.change.org/p/soe-president-john-smedley-ressurect-freerealms-and-clone-wars-adventuresThe fact that this is (Ex-Sony) Daybreak, we're talking about a MULTI-BILLION dollar company. They obviously just didn't want to take their sweet-time to do anything for the people who are basically PAYING for their game. About, what, 75% of all FR players bought membership, if not LIFETIME membership, making, probably, over 525000000 dollars (Over half a trillion.)? Sony just C.B.A.. (Of course the lost a lot of money from releasing 'The Interview', but that was this year) And I think they still have FR on the PS3... How much you want to bet if they President of the US's Daughter played it and asked to bring it back, he would? Let's face the fact we can't depend on Sony (Daybreak) because they're too busy rolling in gold and wiping their noses with 100 dollar bills, greedy fricken r00dz... But hey, if Fun Realms can somehow manage to get everything together, I'll be impressed beyond all measure, and ride my Hydra ride in FR into the sunset, or Briarwood, whichever comes first! I'll probably do an event where I have 20 minutes to get from Briarheart to the hidden cove in Seaside. (I can actually remember every soundtrack that Free Realms had.. It's been BURNED into my brain..) Let's just hope one day, John passes away, someone else takes over, and they bring back FR. Amirite? Fun Realms, remember, no pressure, we can wait, take your time to get the resources to bring back Free Realms. Get that approval email. (Most likely John Smedley marked it as spam... (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻) But hey, do your best m8. *Shudder* Just because the it's a multi-billion dollar company, doesn't mean that the game itself was making enough to run. They aren't going to take funds from other games to keep FR alive, there's no point in that. Lifetime membership, meant the lifetime of the game. Not literally. If the president's daughter asked for it back, it... wouldn't? Because SOE itself would have to change quite a lot of things to ensure that FR can profit. I spend money on games I love, but if it shuts down I'm not going to ask for a refund or say the game should've been kept for Insert amount of time here, unless it was bought a few weeks before shutdown. Many spent on FR, we're not entitled to get any of it back, as it was inevitable that the game would shut. Same with other games, I play Aura Kingdom. If I quit AK or it was going to shut down, I'd mope about, but I wouldn't say I should have my money back or the game should've been kept open for Insert amount of time here. Nah, FR won't come back now. One thing I do wish was that SOE sold off FR to another company. But maybe no one would want FR, as it may have been expensive to run. We can sit here and complain all day, but SOE had their reasons back then. Unless we work there and know how things work, we really can't comment on their financial situation, lol. -Anonymous

Caden. df if wrong with you.... you think its funny that you trolled? Its not. It broke people hearts. How about you think about what you do BEFORE you f*cking do it. I was so excited for this game to be back. It was my second life, and many others. Im also speaking out for many others who are not on this website who loved it as much as i do. Your a f*cking idiot. This isnt trolling its taking advantage. And let me tell you Caden, thats pretty pathetic kid. If you get a kick out of this, your f*cked up. I know this is negative but it needed to be said. I hope you know that you have lost all respect as a human being from all of us. No one on here will ever believe you again. Sorry for all the negativity other people but it needs to be said. Peace out...

Peace out... Are we seriously going to keep getting members who think they're entitled to get an essentially illegal game that actually had revenue spent on it for free? Think rationally, he rushed in and made a mistake, calm down already. Anonmyous makes a great point, we were let down by someone with high expectations, but it's over now. You're right, this isn't trolling, this was a mistake. So get over it and move on. It's been a whole year, now. Let's find another hobby.

You, quite honestly, probably wouldn't even care for the game at that point. If you even remember it.. I would still care for the game. Much like the forty year-old's who still play Pokemon. And I would remember. (How would I forget a game that burned every area's soundtrack into my mind.)

In 2009 , SOE created a dream , We put our hearts into the dreams , but the dream ended. I believe that Free Realms will come back im still keeping the hope and i believe in Fun Realms and believe that he will bring it back. Free Realms was like second world where you could escape from reality and it was everything for me even tho it was virtual and i still need it and the most of Free Realms players who still has the hope ^-^ ♥

Because that is literally the reason they aren't running right now, maybe people were buying cards and memberships, but obviously they weren't buying enough. Like that is pretty much the only reason the game shut down at all...sorry man, I'm not arguing against the project, but I'm pretty certain on this. I don't have proof, but I am taking an educated guess based on the fact that, well, it shut down. They needed their resources elsewhere, if they were making enough for Free Realms to make a reasonable profit in general(more than enough to run it), why would they shut it down at all. Because they're evil?

I think it is unhealthy that so many of you are still obsessed with this game and think it will come back. You need to get over it. Get on with your lives. It is not good trying to hang on to something you can't have. It will only eat away at your soul. Just think about how much time you are wasting waiting for this game to come back. Find something else more productive to do with your lives. You need to learn to accept the fact that some things change and all things in this world are only temporary.
Besides, I don't think SOE will ever release FR to anybody. Don't you remember that one of their main concept artists passed away? I don't think there's a way they can release his designs or his artwork, unless the family agrees to it.

I mean't to add that it just wouldn't be the same without the artwork of Edwin Rosell. How could they keep the game going without the guy who helped bring it to life?

lmao at trying to bring a petition up and making ppl sign it
100 people isnt enough, and im pretty sure only 600 people care about free realms now bc fr is over, its done, just forget about it and move on. theres a lot more stuff to do. 2/3 weeks = 300 members, and a petition isnt going to change anything tbh
besides, the community was plain crap, there was a lot of drama going on and all people cared about were items. and from what ive seen in the fr chat below, lots of people got into fights over uh, pointless stuff? yes
caden does sound like someone whos experienced with this, but since im pretty sure he didnt get the game files at all, he isnt. why did you all think that caden actually did something like this? no way hed get the files and if caden WAS doing something like this, why didnt fun realms help? all he did was advertise
he was the only person doing this project
you have to accept that free realms isnt coming back. at all. nadda. zip.
and dont say "toontown rewritten came back, free realms will!!!2112" no thats because they didnt have to get permission, disney or whoever made it was done and over with it
soe apparently isnt done with free realms for whatever reason. it doesnt make sense that they stop running it and then not give it out lel
btw us kiddies arent experienced programmers and itd be hard to get some.
im tired of people saying frs coming back and then it never happens. if you want fr to come back so badly, do something about it instead of "#keep hope xdddddddd XDDD omg f***888**8 u caden!!11" send an email for permission to john smedley before ANYTHING + ask for files, hire real and experienced programmers, wait until he replies and THEN you can do stuff instead of running into the mistake of caden telling everyone lies.

Ever Since Free Realms closed down i feel like a part of me has been ripped to shreds! I can'e believe it closed down and if Free Realms was replaced with Ever Quest then i am so angry. I just Tried out everquest and it was a piece of crap. I hated it! I just want free realms to come back, not only did i love the memories but i also loved the game itself.If SOE ever said that Free Realms had to close down because not many people were playing it they are beyond the category of wrong! I am hoping so much that is comes back and I am also hoping that this isn't a lie to make us feel better, i am hoping this is the truth. Out of any game in the world it had to be free realms >_<. PLEASE FREE REALMS COME BACK .

not to mention i have a lot of premonitions. I know it sounds crazy but it's true. I usually have them in my dreams, while i sleep and more then 5 times i had dreams about Free Realms coming back. In one dream it actually said when but i forgot. I am really hoping that this is a sign,of free realms return.

The most the community effected the actual game was reports(about or from them) clouding up actual content(like more SC clothing..ZZZ) because of time management, probably a bigger issue than I think, but probably a smaller one than you do. Programmers aside, that is literally what he did, the reason it was discontinued because a response wasn't coming in. Fun Realms says, I quote from the OP: He stopped because he didn't get a response, if you really want, feel free to send him an email yourself. #keepthehope in this situation is "hope he responds to email". You say "stop persisting" and than you say "wait for permission", what? I think I missed this point at first, a good argument against "fighting back" is you probably can't "get him" to read an email. You are falling into the same trap you are excusing others for, excusing Caden(/Fun Realms, whoever made the project, idk) of doing some wrong he didn't(in this case anyway), chances are..him persisting would've gave us pretty much no progress to be realistic. Quite frankly it's no different from you persisting, why don't you try? Ever Since Free Realms closed down i feel like a part of me has been ripped to shreds! I can'e believe it closed down and if Free Realms was replaced with Ever Quest then i am so angry. I just Tried out everquest and it was a piece of crap. I hated it!

PLEASE FREE REALMS COME BACK . Not *enough* people were spending sc, at least in the grand scheme of things(doesn't matter what 200 dollars you may or may not have spent). As the original post said, it was discountuined, unless I guess a random approval message is sent in caden's email. Okay, major edit, I got something pretty wrong regarding what Caden did, but my opinion is pretty much unchanged. edit: , I mean, I still feel he did nothing wrong(pulling from the project), but he handled it very wrong(doing so by trying to delete the forum). I am disagreeing with people, but I can see that some you are more upset of his recklessness then the fact the SIM wasn't released. I guess he did handle this all in the wrong manner, goes far as to delete the whole forum. He handled it pretty badly, ah well. But clearly..looks like people would've flamed him for not releasing his illegal project, he didn't lie...I would just say he just...didn't tell anyone anything? haha This looks like the perfect note to leave on, though! Why persist? How long can we really wait for a possible email? Seems to be a nice closing.
