What gives? They really going through deleting stuff devs said now? If this is true, WoW, not the way to go.

    Garriot is really in big trouble. The game suck, the graphics are so outdated . The KS promises won't prolly be done. Chris Spears is killing the fan base and now people are making videos . There are literally no forums outside of theirs who say good things about this fail. And Berek,, what a joke.

    I remember when they asked for people to go give them positive reviews cause they had a lot neg ones. Was a couple years ago but still....Good thing someone archived it before they deleted it from forums.

    " The good news is we continue to gain new customers from Steam. The not so good news is that some of them are giving us bad reviews. Just recently we dropped from Very Positive to Mostly Positive. Long term this will decrease the number of people who purchase our product on Steam and therefore will mean we will have less money to build this world we all want.

    While many of those negative reviews are fair I feel like the ratio of positive to negative does not accurately reflect the overall sentiment from you, our loyal backers, especially when we take into consideration our current pre-alpha state. If you have not yet done so I would ask you to consider taking a few minutes and post a positive review over on Steam.

    Not a bad way to rally support when your game is crowdfunded, that is until Steam finds out what you're doing and kicks your EA to the curb.

    Their reviews are so bad there they might like people not being able to see them at mostly negative lol

    If one has to beg for positive review and money with begathon all the time you'd think they'd start to look at the problems inside the company and correct them, years too late for that.

    If I donate more to the beggars at Portalarium, does my Compassion go up?

    It's a temporary buff that ends soon as you realize that the game is trash. Afterwards you take a more permanent debuff.

    It's still going on, but now the drama is that SotA's community manager launched a campaign to sanitize Reddit and it apparently worked.

    Berek's (community manager) call to make reddit a better place and then you have the Reddit mod's state of the sub post where he says he's tired of every post being reported.  Somewhere in between there's a Make reddit more positive thread that pops up in SotA.
