Relic is great company full of great people. This thread as a topic should have been shut down at start. This is not about the game but about the company and people who have jobs and make there living through the company. Relic has supported this site with positive promotion since 2012. You would think that the staff in this forum would put a stop to something like this. This game has such a small community, this topic has over 12k views. If relic lost 1 person because of this thread it's a trajedy,I fear that the negativity in this thread has caused many to doubt relics ability. Its time for a change.......
There are errors in your post, dukejason, so let me help you.
First off the bat, it is untrue that
Relic has supported this site with positive promotion since 2012
If that sentence were true, this community would not have had to crowd fund Operation Charlie Fox in September 2015.
Second,
You would think that the staff in this forum would put a stop to something like this.
Oh really? We do not operate like the Official Forums, run by Relic - on which you are a Moderator, I understand? This site was established independently and is funded independently. It operates without fear or favour to Relic. We do not allow disrespectful comments to be made of individual devs. It has always been so. However, if the game is going awry, and if we hold the majority of active core players, which we do, it is a nonsense to say we should suppress all adverse comment. Robust comment, if stated fairly, is in order. You need to know what top players think of the game. Otherwsie, you are a blinkered carthorse, useful only for hauling hay trucks and shitting to provide manure. Are you such a carthorse, dukejason?
Third, I am well aware that you have been caught boasting about setting up a rival site to this one, and that yours will be the best. You can stop your punk activity right now, at least over here.
Neither the moderating team, nor the Admin from here go to the Official Forums and lay down the law about how poor the standard of moderating may be over in the Official Forums, even though the subpar performance has been a 'k' for constant, judging by the moans we get. So equally, I don't expect you to come here and chance your arm.
Courtesy, Bro! You need to learn that, otherwise we will pin back your ears - HARD - just like the Moderators apparently love to do on the Official Forums. If you have a gripe, you will PM the Director of Moderation here. Comprende?
And with that, back to topic.
