Forums aren't a source of reliable business data, or what the company intends to do long-term. A good example of this is to troll a site with just one marginally inflammatory post, then come back a day or so later and see how out of control the topic has become. 
People *love* to argue, and if anyone gives them a soapbox, off they go!
I've heard that until a couple months ago, the crafting system was similar to CoX in that you could make things. Now it's just minor boosts to the loot table. That sounds like they're moving the emphasis from in-game versatility to C-store based credit mining. Whether the game has a Plan going forward to do things the players will like, I haven't a clue. Just play it with one eye open to the potential for shutdown.
I wonder if it's bad karma to hope that some of those people on cohtitan succeed with "Plan Z"...? It might be the only way to get a decent online game going after all this settles.

Those who fear the darkness have never seen what the light can do.
