in fairness, changing the color of nipples to milk patreons is next level funny..
Simple. Don’t wanna get called out, stop making bull shit dates for releasing updates. It’s not rocket science.
The fact that they cry about not being appreciated when it’s b.s after b.s with them, it’s hilarious.

99% of you commenting/complaining are embarrassing.
If I was Zip I'd never update here again.

Not counting updates about the status he's not updating on Patreon or SS either so what's not updating on here going to do?
And so are you lap dogs who accept being lied too. No , you types are far worse

You do realize this site is where developers get exposure right, yes it might be a pirate site but its not like devs don't know their game is on here many actively engage with users on here.
People aren't going to support a dev without first trying out their game. If this site didn't exist they would have alot less supporters on their patron.
Agree.
Besides F95 has the update been uploaded anywhere? Someone mentioned earlier that they had subscribed to SS but saw no update there either.

I believe most critics here do wish Zip success, cos only that will give the game a chance a chance to be developed further, and that's what we care about. I myself turned from a pirate fan to a paying Patreon because I love the game, and back, because I lost faith in the Dev. If you continue to lie to your audience - currently paying or not - it will react irritated, that's how humans work. And consequently, the audience disappears, then the funds will cease, and then the game itself.
To those defending the Dev by attacking us critics along the lines of "you have no right in this, you're not even paying": yeah, we do have that right. If I promise to mow your lawn for free, and do not show up, will you feel angry? Yes. Will you recommend me to your neighbors? No. Can I sustain my business like that? Nope.
Few exceptions, who did stay successful I know. looking at you, ICESTOR, SAD Crab...

precisely: disappointment. with the exception of some hopeless trolls the rest of us do not feel entitled but like you would in my lawn metaphor: disappointed.
Of course life goes on, nobody here seems suicidal - at least to me - about the delay.
You didn't say disappointment though, you said anger!
"Disappointment" is a reasonable response to an unfulfilled expectation, "anger" is not reasonable, it's the response of someone who feels "owed"/"cheated", aka "entitled".
It is very reasonable to be disappointed/frustrated that ZipTie has failed to hit his targets on so many occasions. But all the anger isn't. It's fair to post about his failures to fulfill his uploads, but there is a line between giving readers information to make informed choices and whining like little bitches.

True, but it doesn’t make the guy who promised to mow your lawn for free on a specific date any less of an ass for not following though as promised.
Why do people miss the point, all the time. If you cant follow through with dates, promises, HE MADE, DON’T FUCKING MAKE THEM

I wish Zip or anyone wanting to continue BBS all kinds of success. I even wish Rainces success if they ever continue it. The problem is that they all end up making the same mistake of not communicating or telling outright lies or at least randomish promises that they should know won't turn out to be real.I believe most critics here do wish Zip success, cos only that will give the game a chance a chance to be developed further, and that's what we care about.

I think most people's list of demands for a continuation are surprisingly small. They want something that looks and feels as close to BBS as possible, but with more progress and less time between updates. We don't need upgrades to graphics. We don't want changes to models. Don't add or remove kinks, or add backstory or characters. If you as a dev are bursting with all kinds of cool ideas, use them to make your own game. I would play the hell out of a game like BBS or at least like how I thought BBS was going to be before it just turned into a cycle of frustration. I will always mourn the games I imagined resulting from the early updates of BBS or Big Brother and similar games that ended up just fading out or turning out later to not be what seemed to be promised.
Sure, I won't argue too hard with that, a man should make every effort to hold true to his word.
One thing that was missing from that analogy though, a man who offers to mow your lawn for free is a friend yes? is that a fair assumption?? If a friend of mine failed to show up when he promised my first thought would be concern, not anger, I'd wonder what happened to him. Even if he was a total flake I'd simply stop expecting him at the "promised" times. Free is still Free.
There are all kind of reasons why people can miss a deadline, that can range from legitimate outages, to getting drunk at the pub and forgetting, Shit happens, take a chill pill before you blow a vein. Bottom line is he doesn't demand payment, him posts it himself freely.
