Hey devs, WTF with the censorship ?

Jan 24, 2013 PaladinOfLancelot link
Actually TWO things:

1. CENSORSHIP. I wonder, why do you close every topic that criticizes Vendetta ? Don't you know that change & upgrades are born from criticism ? Haven't you learned yet ?

Censoring things only makes things worse, never better. Let people rant about what is wrong, what is wrong with that ?
This is the same kind of action you took when number of players started to fall: you CENSORED the "active players" list, so that nobody knows how many people is online now.

Seriously, this is just **hiding the truth**, this is not going to work by definition. Not in the era of Internet.

2. THIS SHITTY FORUM SYSTEM.

2 years ago i suggested to remove this absolutely-crappy-to-the-highest-levels forum system. And what did you answer ? You answered something like "We would never change this forum system to some PHP crap".

Well, guess what. This "some php crap" is used by extremely large websites and is extremely scallable, flexible, performant and even SECURE.
So why haven't you tried PHPBB, SMF or even paid vBulletin or alternatives, for Christs's sake ?

DEAL WITH IT: THIS FORUM IS HARDLY USABLE by today's internet standards. And the internet never stops, it is always going forward. It will only get worse with time.

You probably are asking yourselves why is this game hardly staying afloat even with all the Android stuff going on. Well, this are just SOME of the problems. Bah, even your APPROACH to solving problems is completely wrong and counter-productive.

Instead of pretending that nothing is happening (like you do with the censorship), better change your thinking and find out what was wrong with the previous way.

Because I am a free man, have a free will and will do what i please. This is NOT any kind of trolling, I AM serious.

Also: Don't like harsh truths ?

I am dealing with it by establishing how you don't belong early on in the thread

Of course I don't belong. I don't belong anywhere, I am one of a kind - unique specimen. That doesn't mean i shouldn't speak.

On the contrary - maybe that is why i SHOULD speak. Because I don't belong - so I can see your problems from a perspective.

I'm pretty sure it does, you should shut up before the FBI catch on.

I am not a dev, but this kind of behavior would not be tolerated anywhere but the worst of forums. I've watched you (PoL) continually pitch your ideas in a belligerent manner, and turn to trolling/insults when you were rebutted. You are not here because you care about the game. You are here for attention. This is not the way to win credibility or respect.

I am going to lock this now. If a dev or guide wants to unlock it to respond, they have the ability to do so. Please do not troll the community.
