Maverick369 - Please don't feel you can't or shouldn't post here. I think what you're running into is the fact that these things have been mentioned (and answered) many times in this thread, and so some of the individuals that have been following the thread for years are tired of the fact that the same things come up over and over again.

I will grant you, however, that it may be a bit much to expect for someone new to the thread to read through 3+ years and 100+ pages of posts.
At least on this thread, we don't have the "Schutzstaffel" that controls the thoughts and words of the posters like "AWAM" does.
People, let's hope it never comes to that! :)

I've had a few posts dealt with when they violate the overall behavior expected on the site (i.e. they contained threats, personal attacks, etc.) but when it comes to talking about the game itself, definitely King Log rather than King Stork. That isn't to say that some of the about-the-game comments (particularly early in the thread's life) didn't hurt, but not going to censor comments just because I disagree with them.

I do, however, understand that some of the denizens hereabout have limited patience for people that don't actually read the OP, however...

You are right and should draw lines where civility is concerned. In the grand scheme of things, however, I think we (me included) can all use a little more patience. Help/teach or hinder/ridicule? I'm in the help/teach camp. No offense to anyone. :)

with Becky? Has it been confirmed or not?
All guesses at this point. But, Parker did give Becky up to the older cop, didn't he? Something nefarious is definitely afoot since the older cop does like them young. Exactly what one would like to see and read in a KN with all these possibilities. So, at some point, I'm looking for it to happen in one way or another.

I went with going after the teacher route. I’m wondering how mc is going to use blackmail material against his mother. At the very least she is hooking up with the male teacher. It is possible that may be mc real father.

Whats this? A dozen updates and no sex?
The game definitely has sex in it. If you'd actually read the post trail, you'd see that they were specifically talking about Parker (the MC) and one specific character - Becky - that he's pursuing.

What is this a tease game? Milker?
Far from it, as you'd figure out if you read the story. And accusing a dev who's put out the number of updates Rich has, over the period of time that he's kept this going of being a "milker" is a bit insulting, I think.

Or do you only like games where the MC is already banging every female in sight by the 0.2 release?

I always find it interesting when people get concerned over what other people spend their money on.
As far as I know, no patron has ever been forced to donate money to a Dev. :)

Space Ghost, if you're somehow convinced that I'm "milking" this game to try to increase my relatively-paltry earnings based on not understanding third-hand comments about what's happening in it, you're welcome not to contribute to it, and to go your merry way. Or maybe even leave the site entirely and not play the free copies of games you're getting through this site. I mean, who's milking whom if you're playing pirated games?

For the record, however, the first (pirated) release of this game on this site was in December of 2018. There have been 12 releases between then and now, so that's an average of a release about every 3 months. That actually overestimates the time between releases, because I had a very long gap between 5.0 and 6.0 due to family trauma. Excluding that, the average cadence has been every 2-2.5 months.

Let's see you bang out script, 250-300 renders and game programming every other month for over three years before you accuse someone else of "milking."

EDITED -

To my loyal followers, apologies for my ire. To those of you who have donated cash, Daz assets and valuable suggestions, I (again) thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'm sure you know by now that I'm committed to finishing this project, not "milking" it for... well... whatever.
