Why would they? I don't know if you noticed but Something Awful already has a place to talk about Starbound.

goons got their own subforum where they could post goon garbage in what amounts to a vacuum. Please be mad.. Are you mad yet?

So did these guys never find out about the fact that goons were playing the game long before it came out as early access on steam, while they were all begging for Chucklefish to just release ANYTHING they could play?

I think OP should close this thread and force everyone to only post on the Starbound Forums, SA member subforum or not.

So what you are saying is that there was a secret goon subforum so secret that even most goons didn't know about it? And that they made shitposts in there?BUTTERWORBS posted:thank god, wouldn't want to slow down this bullet train lmao

Some fun things: 1) That powmod poster who was really taking us to task for having a secret forum made a twitter account explicitly for tweeting mollygos twice, the second time to literally post "what's wrong? SOMETHING AWFUL happen?" 2) My rural region has a blanket ip ban on 4chan, and I never bothered or set up a proxy. They spent posts on /vg/ accusing other people of being me posting. 3) A guy who was actually posting stuff about gameplay on /vg/ was accused of being either Omni or Tiy 4) They manage to screencap my thread titled "Tiy's Grand Vision" and think it's some deep Masonic passcode bullshit conspiracy. It's just about stuff after the game finally goes gold ie. not priority right now. 5) Luckly, we deleted the real damaging thread on there with the pics of the massive orgy on top of thousands upon thousands of dollar bills individually wrapped into $15 bundles.

It's perfectly reasonable to harass people on the internet, do creepy internet detective poo poo and catalogue any contradictory statement a person has made in the last three years into a wikipedia page. After all, I didn't get my $15 videogame fast enough. 4chan is literally hilarious.

As hilarious as all this really dumb poo poo is, thank you, Chucklefish, for actually continuing on with this drat game. This is some weapons-grade stupidity going on here and I have nothing but respect for your patience and hard work. That said, isn't this how quite a few indie games get an initial foothold? They start off as a project the dev shows a community (reddit, 4chan, SA, etc.) and then go from there? It honestly seems natural that a project would have some roots in one community or another.

This is some weapons-grade stupidity going on here and I have nothing but respect for your patience and hard work. Basically Tiy wanted a private place to discuss potential game ideas, way back in closed beta, and the SA community had been very supportive of the game. So he came up with an invite only forum so half baked ideas weren't taken as gospel by the general public. It never actually really got used for that, I think maybe one or two details were posted a few days before everyone else and then Tiy just started doing everything public. The forum stayed there, and became essentially a goon chat thread but spread across a bunch of low content topics (i.e a bunch of shitposting in a vacuum). Less posts have been made in the goon subforum than in the collected Homestuck clan threads Someone with access leaked it, like it was some huge deal or something. Nobody cares.

BUTTERWORBS posted:thank god, wouldn't want to slow down this bullet train lmao This but unironically. People getting mad because devs don't constantly give updates are better off ignored. Or to put it in indiegamers.txt form: Actual investors don't do this poo poo because they have the mental capacity to know that if they trust a company with their money, they also trust the competency of those running the place and don't loom over them as a giant loving distraction. If these people want to act like they're owed something, similar to the idiots to act like their kickstarter backing makes them an investor, then have some faith in the company. Tiy, Molly, and co have earned that much. It's not like you're still waiting on a working build nearly a year later after having given them money.
