I'll keep my hat (along with other pieces of clothing) on for now, thank you very much, since Jorb seems to be really pissed off and prone to spitting bile at random people.
All in all, this thread was not necessary at best, more likely harmful and defeating the idea it's supposed to achieve (fair game with no worldbreaking irrepairable abuse, presumably). I say it was started out of spite, on a momentary emotional lapse of judgement. Happens to the best of us.

Re: Request for Contact: Helfors/Never Neverland
There's been at least one time in the near past where Jorbtar nuked some village and most people approved of the force they used. If they've done it before I have faith they will again. Nagging them may not get you the result you wanted.Sarge wrote:If you have been playing this game for as long as your you've had your forum account thenDatSheep wrote:I agree that the devs don't always make decisions that are 400 iq everytime a change is made, but its pretty useless to bring up stuff like the potters clay when that was redacted after they saw how the community was against it, and why. This is a game in eternal alpha and its not the end of the world that the sole two devs of this game aren't playing it themselves at a high level of gameplay. Yeah, there's stuff they should learn from us and I can see they do that. Maybe in time they'll grasp more of that shit, and maybe they do understand more than they let on. Idk. There's times when people treat the game, in all its complexity, as if it's supposed to be perfectly balanced by now with only two people working on it. Maybe it could have been, but it's not and there's not much use in rubbing stuff in their faces without any helpful criticism or commentary.If not, then you should know that this is a trend that has been going on for many many years. It's no surprise that people are losing their shit about it. Just note all the vet's comments, they all echo the exact same thing.jorb wrote:Honestly, you have no insight into the situation.

If jorb didn't enjoy the shitshow he would have locked the thread when he made it. He enjoys this kind of stuff.wonder-ass wrote:lots of speculations when we have 0 idea of what they have actually done. maybe its time to take off the tinfoil hat until we know what they have actually done?Kaios wrote:It’s alright if you want to maintain token sales by giving them a chance to come clean, just say that.

I feel like the Jorb we see on the forums is not the Jorb we see on streams. Does Jorb even exist? Could this be an actor on streams and just an angry AI on the forums?

Tempted to agree, but it's a good deal of work to do that incognito. Not saying we couldn't do more.Oddity wrote:No, the point is that you should play your own game as seriously as the vets do some day.

You don't even realise how ironic it is for you to call Kruger-Dunning on him.

Well, toi be honest, I did find your comments here to be overly aggressive. That may be just because I can't help but see "a sprucecap" as a derogatory term, especially in the context you're using it. I, too, think it's not okay for a developer to behave that way, but, then again, who am I to judge, you're doing a decent job and I use it at my leisure (mostly) for free. Just don't generalize this bigly.jorb wrote: > be sprucecap

You might want to hold your reservations until we know what has been done. Blind speculation benefits nobody. Hold your useless conjectures until Jorb makes an official announcement.Hasta wrote:I'll keep my hat (along with other pieces of clothing) on for now, thank you very much, since Jorb seems to be really pissed off and prone to spitting bile at random people.

If AD truly was abusing exploits to gain stats at an increased rate, then they need to be severely punished. But again, this is all pointless speculation without any facts. Many other games hold zero tolerance policies against intentional cheating. Knowing how things have been handled in the past, the punishment will probably never be as severe as it should be.
