I hope to soon have an interview for Renegadecommunity.com with EALApredator, EA's C&C community manager. I had a first contact but obviously he is a very busy guy. I got a 'principle agreement' though.
I thought it would be useful that, for once, it's not me thinking of the questions but all our visitors can contribute! So you can post the questions you'd like to ask to EA here and I'll ask as many of them as possible during the interview.
Some rules though:
- This interview is about Renegade and its community. This means no questions about C&C 3 or other C&C-games, unless there a relevance towards Renegade
- Don't ask questions that you know he cannot answer or that could mean disrespect towards the interviewee. I will not retain those questions in the interview for obvious reasons
- Be detailed in your question. I want to be sure to understand the question before asking it
- Try to be a bit original
- Stay on-topic in this topic! Any flaming or off-topic posts will be removed from this topic.
This will be a one time event and opportunity for YOU to interact directly with EA's community manager. By all means, take it .
I'll close this topic the 15th of April, leaving plenty of time for all to leave their questions and/or remarks.
I'll add the already retained questions here:

warranto wrote on Tue, 27 March 2007 16:26 | Would it be possible for any current anti-cheat software to receive official support from EA? Not in terms of manpower (as they already have their own support teams). but in terms of having a seal of approval from the game publisher?
Follow up: If so, by what means could that support be obtained?
Just to point out, I'm not asking if any current projects WILL gain that support, but moreso if EA would be willing to give it to a current program if certain conditions are met (hence the reason for the follow up question)

Well, you say not in terms of manpower, but I disagree there, since our partnership with BHS I know that they do have either too less time/ppl to get the new rengaurd done fast and properly.
For BI it would be usefull if either the source was released, or we could talk to someone who knows more about the renegade engie and could give us more information on possible intresting things.

Could you ask why EA/Westwood never REALLY finished Renegade? I know that might be a bit offencive question, but from what I've seen @ seyes place, the renegade engine could do a lot more then it can now, just because loads of things are not/ cannot be used now. Also, I think that if Renegade was properly finished it would have gotten way more sales and more attention. I've heard from a lot of ppl that they had the feeling it could do way more then it did, and that it didn't have the "true" C&C feel, and no not because of it being an FPS.

As i think it's relevant, Crimson already asked something about a renegade 2 and the response was something like, "it is within the realm of possibility" It's not like they're going to say "yes" or "no" ever and I'm thinking they're just going to say the same thing as last time but by all means
Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

You will have to interview APOC instead. EALApredator died in the line of duty saving APOC.
