美服《天堂》北美服务器将于6月29日关闭
NCSoft在《天堂》（Lineage）官网上宣布：《天堂》北美游戏服务器将于2011年6月29日永久关闭。NCSoft公司暗指：《天堂》的特许经营不再盈利，因此导致服务器关闭。
现在已经停止新用户的注册。公司已不再向重复计费的玩家收取费用，Time Card也不能增加游戏时间了。NCSoft公司激活了所有的玩家账户，在服务器关闭之前任何人都可以免费玩《天堂》。
公司承诺对于没有用完的时间卡以及已经充入账号的时间卡都会退款。一般都是以玩家之前支付的方式退款。详情玩家可以参看公司退款条例。
游戏不再会升级，但是公司会对US Ruleset 有些改变，计划在接下来的2个月举办一些活动。公司希望可以让天堂玩家实现所有“天堂梦”。玩家们充分利用接下来的2个月，体验天堂给你们带来的乐趣吧！

经过多方面的考虑，NCSoft公司最终决定关闭天堂北美服务器。《天堂》网游已经营运了近10年，很遗憾现在的《天堂》在西方国家已经没有什么盈利点了。于是公司决定2011年6月29日永久关闭《天堂》北美服务器。

Lineage : North American Servers Closing in June
According to a new post from NCSoft on the Lineage site, the North American game servers will be closing permanently on June 29, 2011. NCSoft indicates that the 'franchise is no longer profitable', hence the server closure.
NA servers closing 6/29
May 11, 2011 -
After much deliberation, NCsoft has made the difficult decision to shut down Lineage servers in its Western markets. Unfortunately, after more than 10 years, the original Lineage franchise is no longer financially viable in the West. On June 29, 2011, at the normal maintenance time, all the original Lineage NA servers maintained by NCsoft will shut down permanently.
As of today, no new accounts can be created. We will no longer charge anyone whose account is set to recurring billing, and Time Cards can no longer be used to add additional game time. We have reactivated all existing accounts in good standing, and everyone can play for free* for the remaining time that the servers are open.
We are committed to refunding any unused game time that might have already been applied to your account. If you are due a refund, refunds will be made automatically back to the method of payment that was originally used in most cases. Please see our refund policy for details.
Nyx, Jetzen, and Unicycle plan to go out with a bang. We will not be making any additional content updates, but we do have US Ruleset changes and lots of great events planned for the next two months. We want to give you every opportunity to make all of your remaining Lineage dreams come true. We hope that everyone will stick around to have fun with the game you love in the time we have left.
We know that we have incredibly loyal fans that have stood by us for the past ten years. As painful as it was, as a business, we had to make a very difficult, but necessary, decision. We thank you for your continued support. We want you to know that we will be offering you a chance to try other NCsoft games for free to express our gratitude for your years of loyalty to Lineage.

With great respect to you, our players,
