Fair call. Im only a lower tier patron atm, so I dont get diddle squat, rightfully so. I meant more info on the release, which seems to be completely taboo to talk about which I find extremely odd. Unless I missed something, we know what he's working on, the beta is out. But beyond that nothing. Again, if I missed something, my bad.

...and don't stress about the dyslexia, we all have a crosses to bare.
It's not taboo. It's just really annoying because I've always posted an estimated release date on my patreon whenever an update begins development. And any time we do answer that question directly, there is another person on the next page asking the same question, so it feels almost pointless to answer that question.

whack-a-mole-customer-service is so much fun. You are essentially a small business owner now ;)

Unofficially been one for a while, haha. I would actually say I have a few jobs (most of them are willing though), aside from game development/writing a story. Community management and customer service are two things I do which most devs don't do. I mean going beyond official posts. There's also "smaller" things like cinematography, character design, photo editing, lighting, environment building, character posing (undervalued in porn games I think) marketing, social media, and more. I can't take too much credit for the animations or modeling, but each of these things are roles that one person would dedicate an entire career to. I don't plan on doing it this way forever, but I will for Harem Hotel.

….. I meant more info on the release, which seems to be completely taboo to talk about which I find extremely odd…..
The problem comes when a person pops in the thread (which happens constantly) and doesn’t bother to read ANYTHING … and asks THAT question… The reason the meme exists is because every 1-3 days the question is asked … not to mention Runey posts info/ETA on Patreon (always) or here F95 (almost always) and other places (I don’t track) and that is always the OFFICIAL info.

If people popping in would scan/read the last two pages of posts or use the search they would not demonstrate that they were in danger of suffocating!! (because their head is firmly buried up their ass)

Often the question was JUST asked (5-25 posts ago) OR Runey had just posted the official word.
… and if Runey didn’t give a date it’s ridiculous that WE would KNOW something he doesn’t.

For simplicity’s sake just assume Runey’s info on Patreon is THE VERY BEST INFO AVAILABLE and no one else has ANY additional info with regards to the “when is the update coming out” question.

Whatever your model, it seems to be working well! Keep it up!

Or worse as I've had this happen to me multiple times on this site, I would answer a question about a game AND THE VERY NEXT POST is some idiot who didn't even bother to notice that I just answered his question then goes and posts the same question again. Thankfully I generally don't have to respond to those posts since the users will get multiple reply's telling them to read my post just before theirs.

Here, this may come in handy (for Runey and a lot of others too, actually).

I feel ya.

People need to realize that they are not a special snowflake and that others time is AS Valuable as theirs OR more likely … even more valuable than theirs.

I constantly smh about how great a % of people want everything spoon fed to them just like Mommy does for them with their baby food.
& how
Mommy probably still wipes their asses for them too.

^ But I am A special snowflake!, I'm a yellow one!.

Finding myself reading this almost daily now, Waiting for the next update to drop....
Soooon!.
Wonder if i made a fairy lose her wings?.
No, you're fine. There's no harm saying you're looking forward to it or discussing an upcoming update in general (for example : the upcoming update will feature a brothel!). It's when you ask when it's coming out or something to that effect that you contribute to the fairy mutilation and possible genocide.

You ARE!!! … most snowflakes melt when the yellow hits ‘em!!

Discussions about changes & the game is what this place is all about.
Hand holding & babysitting of those that can’t read … not so much;)

I believe there is an exemption/loophole preventing wing removal when the “Question” is asked in a sarcastic or funny context.
So you good!
