So, I just saw Dark Magic getting the "abandoned" tag. I'll be deeply disappointed if this and Mythic Manor gets that tag too

Also, welcome back Runey! We are greatful for this project of yours but if you feel like you need a break, please do so. Taking care of yourself first is more important than getting burnt out

The tag is not really relevant, and had no barring on the game's actual status.
Any game with a long enough development cycle will get it, even if they are still actively working on it.
I really hope that's the case since that game really takes a long time to update too. Oh well, we'll see in the near future if it really gets abandoned or if it still gets updated

Depends on the game, every dev is different, but the only way to know for sure, is to talk to them, maybe on their discord or something.

It also depends on the whims of the staff here too.
One of the games here I used to play comes to mind for years the dev did 2-3 updates every month. But the moment they announced they would be away for a couple of months to deal with a family crisis, people went ape shit and 3 days later started calling the dev a milker, scammer and <insert every other entitled asshole comment here>. Then staff marked it as abandoned 3 weeks later. The dev for that game got so exasperated after that, so they left and hasn't been back and I don't blame them.

The rules changed over covid, but yeah, it can be pretty arbitrary at times.

It's best to just ignore him, because he just wants people to pay attention to him.
So, ignoring him is the best thing that you can do with people like him, a troll.
Sometimes it's fun to poke at them for a little bit then pull the rug out from under them it gets them lost, dazed and confused. Besides I've dealt with trolls for a long time I've been a moderator and administrator for several forums and Discord servers.
