I’d say now is the time for me to do the talking. What, did you expect me not to come back and write? Why should I? Since I feel like I have done nothing, I can respond to anything and everything with no problem. Preface, I suggest you read everything before writing or responding to anything I say now. It will be all about the “maybe” since it’s a phrase they really liked. Make your own opinion, but read everything first.
I am not required to say where I go, what I do, when I do it, and who logs in with this account on this forum.
Let’s get right to the hot topic, the “reviews manipulation” where I have already quietly explained that I have asked places outside of the online to play and rate the game, but not just here, everywhere. I don’t see any violation of the rules in this, since the other sites have created no problems for me and only here there has been a “court martial”.
“Eh, but there are IP logs” so what? You don’t know where I live, what I do and who logs, and who I ask to do things. I have 10 other sites to take care of. How do you know if I ask someone to check or post and organize things for me? I don’t have to tell you. I spend the summer in one place, the rest of the year in another, and my proper home is completely on the opposite side of the state I’m in. Are these things I need to tell you? Maybe they are, maybe they aren’t. What do you know if other people don’t live with me or not?
And it would be much more serious as an action to reveal my private information, that’s grave.
Other much worse things have happened here, such as copyright violations or dissemination of private information, but apparently no one has ever said anything about it.
But anyway, from now on I’ll be logged here only through Brave, although I don’t know if it’s working. Where am I? Boh, I don’t know. I don't feel like making my stuff known online on a piracy forum.
I had quietly accepted that I had made a mistake in “massively” asking my friends and letting in whoever they wanted. But that doesn’t mean I forced them to let 5/4/3/2/1 stars in. They did it of their own volition. Sure, it may be okay that they did me the favor. This account remains the same shared as it was at the beginning, two/three other people log in. Is this information I need to give you? I think not.
By the way, a friend of mine lives in France, another in Ireland and another in Switzerland. The reviews could have come from there easily, and there would be no violation of rules, anyway. I ask them quietly on Discord too, and that’s not a violation either.
One of your beloved devs also received the same problem elsewhere, but they didn’t send him to “trial”, they simply told him to stop, and he also reported it to me, so that I too could avoid the same problem, I see that then here too it is to be avoided.
And thing to note, you did not receive 6000 reviews, number of my Discord users.
I apologized and had accepted that they were my responsibility. The ticket had been “Concluded”, closed, finished, nothing else to do. I would have waited a month of “punishment” without problems. And this is where the real “misinformation” begins, not made by me, but by you.
The ticket closed, I informed on my server that I had to stay put for a month and most likely no one would update the thread, since it is always dead.
This was the only serious sentence said by me during the afternoon.
Evening comes and I get the message, with the ticket being opened again, “We have been told that you are making misinformation on your server, you will be punished for this.”
Okay, so you sent spies into the server to check the behavior of a person who every time has to write when he’s serious or not because he doesn’t know if the English he’s using is correct, and you judge a person like that? Very well, you sent psychoanalysts to check my behavior?
In my server I speak as I want, everyone knows I am ironic or sarcastic 90% of the time and only when I say “Serious thing” then it is really serious, or I speak only with emoji, but that’s another thing. You have applied your rules and controls outside your forum, which you can’t do, you have sent people to control me, which is not correct, since everyone can give random judgment and believe it, you have violated your rule 1.6 “The decision of the staff is final”, ticket closed -> ticket reopened -> punishment -> ticket closed again, it doesn’t seem so final as a decision, you have violated your own rules to “punish me”, ah no, this is “apply the rules as we want because we can”.
As a reminder, no one is forced to be in your forum. They can create the account, leave the review, and never return.
In my server not even 1% have an account in this forum, do you think that those who did it to leave me feedback are interested in your forum? As they are not, neither are my friends. They have done me the pleasure of doing it, nothing else, and not only here, let’s make it clear.
There are also people banned by you, or who don’t like you, so it is also normal for them to “fuck off” to you.
By the way, you have also blocked/banned/not sure two users who reported to me they could no longer enter to see what was going on. Is it true? Did it happen? Who knows...
“This is the third game in 5 years” so what? I’ve been here for over a year and I’ve caused no problems. You guys have been giving me problems all summer, but I’m getting there now.
No misinformation has been given, and I don’t know where you got some random and wrong info from. Also, I did not send any of my users to defend me here; I had asked them not to meddle; they did it on their own initiative.
And for that “he was sleeping” thing, the night before I was streaming Subverse in my server until late at night, then I went to sleep and woke up at 3pm with all this mess, everyone knows I have a horrible sleep schedule, since I work at CoR even until 4am.
Never come to me again and say “That I don’t respect players and other devs”, players have my help 24/7, I answer their questions and fix their problems. And it’s you who don’t respect other devs, just leaking any of their products is disrespectful.
If I were to apply “respect”, no one would have to upload anything for two months straight.
Now we get to the part said by you “The mods here boycott me”, never said such a phrase, I just said I was having trouble this summer.
The game hasn’t been loaded for two months in a row. I can understand a one week malfunction, but two months not, that’s on purpose.
Report once, no response, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, report on report to see what the problems are. The only response I get is “stop abusing the report button”.
Stop abusing....the game has been abandoned for a long time and this is the answer I get, and the next day in 5 minutes you leak and upload another game without problems, then something is wrong.
But it’s all a maybe, right?
Let’s clarify one thing, I accuse nobody of anything, but one thing bothered me, and I have also reported it via “report”. Here you make preferences on what to upload and what is important or not.
Nobody cares about CoR? Well, it can wait. A game brings us a huge number of users? Quick! Let’s upload it.
Given also the behavior of not giving importance to “small games”. “If we want to show up we do it on Milfy City" and go there then.
The only thing I can say is simply a total lack of interest and superficial things. Two months, stop bothering us...
Don’t think I’m playing the victim here. I’m just responding to you.
It’s not nice to read that your game is abandoned for two months while others continue to upload without problems.
Now, since you apply the rules as you see fit, no one is stopping you from giving the thread back to me. I don’t care about the blocked reviews, instead I’m really bothered by that manipulation stuff. Also because with the launcher, soon you won’t be able to manage things, and only the players will lose out.
Will things stay like this? No one forbids me to ask for the closure of this thread and open another one, given the “Reset”, and no rule prohibits that “the convicted” can not manage another thread.
Also avoid jokes like “You wanted the activity? Now you’ve got it.”
Now I also have to decide what to do with this account, I have no reason to continue to enter here, maybe I could do it to help those in need, or maybe I will entrust it to someone else, convert it into a bot to spam stuff.
I also tell you I will not be responding to any posts about this matter. This will be the only post I make about this.
Why am I only responding now? I wanted to do it earlier, but I was curious about the “Let’s attack him now that he’s weak” phenomenon. Very interesting. Real thoughts on the game were seen.
I suck as a Dev, I’m crazy and stuff, and CoR is a mediocre game.
Let's also not throw in the problems of people insulting those who play CoR, like certain people who say that "You can't complain since you definitely pirate [game] on F95 and support Zimon." Or that "Patreon money should go to [game] and not CoR since it's a copy."
And this is fresh stuff from this summer
And remember one important thing, you are a piracy forum, not a court of law.
Now, I’ll drop this topic and respond to some of you.
“He did it to increase thread activity.”
Other than I did nothing, the thread has always been dead, I don’t think “manipulated” reviews would have changed anything, Cleos’ interactive comes out, no feedback, Sheila’s lewd comes out, no feedback, dead thread.
For those who say I’m a crazy person who is obsessed with reviews, you have understood nothing; I have always asked for feedback regarding the content released by the builds, whether you liked it.
“He did it to counteract the negative reviews.”
Mmmmm, no, the only negative reviews that bother me are the ones that don’t make any sense, like the one from Molitar that was a rant about the UI, which I publicly responded to, where I said it wasn’t fair to do something like that randomly.
And for the low reviews with likes, boh, they come from accounts that only put like to low stars. Why should I care?
There are meaningless reviews where “The game doesn’t start, two stars.”
But those stay because “They don’t violate the rules” right? Game not played, okay.
“He gets blinded by fame.”
Um? What fame? I already know I’m not doing a good job. The game is worthless. What fame would I be drunk on? And you’re saying it. Not me.
“He can’t take criticism.”
Wrong, I accept criticism, especially if it makes the game better and is constructive.
“He’s the new Yandev!”
I dissociate myself from that.
“Who insults the users of Discord.”
Already explained, just because they do not have an account here or they have it recently, does not mean that they do not know everything that happens, who just insulted Darth for the “time” does not understand that he is in my server for much longer than here.
“He wastes time doing useless things.”
All those things done under the change category are done while I’m not working overnight.
The UI was changed during the night, where I should rest and not working, like the recently added Discord stuff, until 4am I stayed to fix it.
“It has no proper focus.”
Wrong here too. I can handle the content however I like, and I know anything that needs to happen with no problems.
“In a week a newbie dev makes more content than this update that Zimon made in one month.”
Aside from the fact that a newbie dev wouldn’t be able to do it, and that this update is more o less two weeks, not a month, I’ve always given you the same number of events each month, with no complaints.
Who knows I give you 1/2 a week and you’re fine with it.
Let’s also put in that there are things I don’t show, jobs I don’t tell you, Launcher prep, dialogs , and a lot of other stuff. There are schedule and content changes you don’t know about. It is you who receive no information, since I have written nothing here, and no one is interested in reporting.
Curious now to see what will happen, what I have to say, I said it.
I’ll decide what to do based on what happens now. Most likely I’ll get insults or other stuff, but that’s okay, everyone can safely make their own judgment of the situation.
Now I'll drop the talk and focus on the thing that apparently only matters to me and very few people, Champion of Realms.
