I just can't wrap my head around why they aren't using a randomly selected distribution of feedback people that covers the different sub-sections of the game. It's pretty standard procedure in software to try and hit a broad spectrum of your userbase, not just the power-users, as it were. An in-game feedback system like BaS, WoW, or SW:TOR used (when they were actually in beta lol) would probably be exponentially more useful than this continued circlejerk that is the RT.

irony is that someone said that in his post in the RT, then that person got nuked like 2 days later along with the rest of us.

I'm just going to run around at launch with a guild named #freeKimsemus just to royally annoy the gently caress out of everyone and fill it with pubbies who will mine rocks and poo poo hoping to get inside Goon Squad someday. That will be my mission.

TBH sucks about RT because I feel like forge was a good guy in there and took it seriously. But they ban people even in the public who openly deride and chide their dev process, even when presenting clear evidence so not surprised. I think it should be accepted the game is doomed, and pretty much dead on launch. I'm all for optimism (lol jk no im not) but I think any holdouts need to accept this abortion of a development for what it is. Kimsemus fucked around with this message at 19:52 on Apr 27, 2017 |

I already joked with the guild im in that I'll make a alt and give it a territory in a guild called roundtableaccessplease. Kim the funny thing right.. is that there was a permissions issue at the start of this beta where by warmaster could drop territory. So what two specific guilds did was paid masters to drop city territory. We had to abandon the guild savages like 5 days into this beta because red army paid a warmaster to do just this. So I go post in RT like 8 days into beta about how warmaster needs to have this removed so that only GM and Righthand can drop territory and there needs to be 24 hours timer like in eve where you can cancel if someone manages to get you with this. It turns into a 3 page thread and everyone is in general agreement that something should probably be done. No poo poo like 1 week ago (now almost 1.5 months into beta?).. QueenVirgo's guild loses like 3 town plots to the warmaster bs. She goes and creates a thread "Hey this needs fixing".. 2nd post is Korn going "confirmed". I make the 3rd post saying "No offense but did no one there even bother to read my thread? I had a entire thread about this very issue the first week of this beta. This is what the 7th-8th guild this has happened to and no response??". Everyone even fucken likes the poo poo out of the post because they all read the original LOL. So anyway 2 days later the test server has it in the patch notes that it's going to be fixed and warmaster can no longer drop territories, THANKS QueenVirgo!. Here is the kicker.. Bercilak makes his I'm going to edit RT and we neglected it etc, post. Well QueenVirgo's the GM of her guild. But because of this bug they lost all their territory. So on Monday guess who gets kicked out because welp. No territory! The current GM of Core has something in common with you Kimsemus. forge fucked around with this message at 21:32 on Apr 27, 2017 |

Actually it was in a PM.. lol Yesterday [3:48 PM] Sharkiesha: told talion his company was ran by autistic monkies and that carebear retards like fluffer will ruin his game, p.s Your a poo poo community manager [5:32 PM] Sharkiesha: I got banned for PMing him that lol. Wasn't even on forum Today [3:57 AM] Sharkiesha: well rip boys, put in a leadership transfer request for purr to be GM, i got banned, GL rest of beta He went to login and his account was banned. I wonder if the idea is that they don't ever want them playing again, or they just want them to buy another box. Either way can't wait for sea of theives.

It's always a good sign when you take on Chris Roberts' mindset of banning any and all the criticize your game, regardless of platform that the criticism occurs.

It's always weird to me to see someone freak out and ban other people when they get personally offended. It screams "I have no objectivity and am a baby!!!". Then I remember that I post on a forum filled with ironic toxicity and so here you either harden up or get ripped into. SA posters usually think they can give scathing criticism however legitimate and the recipient has to lay down and take it. Since a lot of the internet is a big hugbox, that's not how it usually works (unless you're posting in some other dark corner of the internet). People hate honesty when it isn't what they want to hear and in the spectrum of internet users these guys are big babies. Basically I'm not surprised at all by this turn of events and it just solidifies how emotionally attached and devoid of perspective these guys are. Maybe the game will be fun for a short bit but I don't see it being successful if they've chosen to cater to their fanbase niche rather than the average gamer.

Just remember.. the core of their game GVG has 42 guilds who currently participate. I heard 42 of anything is a magical number which can keep entire companies afloat. Edit: it's also not like 100% of us also told them this at least 2 years ago.

not that i'm ever gonna defend sensitive people on the internet, but "your company is ran by autistic monkies and you're a poo poo community manager" is the sort of thing that gets you banned pretty much anywhere? give it a try with lowtax if you don't believe me

Yeah it's taking it a step too far for sure. Just can't relate I guess, because if someone told me that I'd have a hard time giving a poo poo. To each their own though.

Man, this poo poo used to happen before Chris Roberts. He just made it very high profile because of all the literal high stakes involved. I don't get developers with a persecution complex and the fact they're so common lmbo. It's like the worst thing to have if you want to get into this industry because poo poo is competitive and you need to be able to take some criticism to actually improve but no go ahead and let that ego swell
