Sure, but I'm not not just talking about BC, and none of the big name "scammers" have left game development. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but the frequency that you see devs accused of being scammers is a bit much. Burnout and incompetence are the more likely culprits.The flaw in your argument is it's only true if BC stays a dev making games. If, perchance, he's found a salary job and is content in the change, then it's plausible to say that "milking" the existing patrons until it runs out just to have that pittance of extra income is within the realm of possibility.
Now, I'm not saying this is the case, nor do I believe this is happening but given the circumstances, any outcome is possible and would not surprise me one bit anymore.
I'm avoiding dropping names to minimize the chance of my post getting removed, but most of the people in this thread no at least one of the people I'm referring to.
