No, you are annoying.This spam for the update and code links is starting to get fucking annoying, I'm not gonna lie. Nearly an entire page already, are you kidding me.

Android version please
I have neither the will, nor the power to report and delete messages myself. Pirates will pirateExactly, I was asking because of that, maybe the owner reported those comments as spam. It makes me want to play it early even more now.
This is likely the reason why.I think because that guy was spamming everyone personally. I didn't report it, but I got a message, so I'm assuming others received too.
On the note of piracy though:
A mod singled out my game amongst a myriad of shittily monetized and permanently paywalled games, and decided that HoS deserved to be the one to get permanently promotion-banned from F95 for having 2% of its current content behind an Early Access model, or temporary paywalls if you wanna go that far.Why don't the updates for this game show up in the "latest updates" pages, the most recent update there is still stuck at 3 months prior. I am just saying this because I don't want the game to lose its audience
Where to add this code?Code: HK18ZL99

Fallout is pretty cool I'll give you that much, but...
You haven't wasted even a second before choosing to share the newest update after it was posted in my private channels. You should know that I of course banned you from my channels for what I would hope are obvious reasons.
Out of respect for choosing to at least keep the code secret, I will honor a refund if you choose to initiate one.
You probably already know that the bond of trust between us as creators, and you, as an individual part of a greater community, is what keeps games like HoS alive. I create, hoping to earn your trust and support, and you support, trusting that I'll keep creating.
Our product lives or dies by that same bond.
With that in mind, I am sure you've seen many other games you've come to enjoy over the years come and go as creators vanish into thin air after losing either part of the equation.
So out of curiosity I must ask, why would some of the earliest supporters of HoS act like this?
Do you so vehemently hate the product, or the creator to the extend that you want to see it/them fail?
Is it just for a quick dopamine hit from some internet points?
Pirates, will of course pirate. If not you, then someone else would inevitably leak it. I am not writing this in hope of preventing future piracy. Just some food for thought for anyone who cares!
A mod singled out my game amongst a myriad of shittily monetized and permanently paywalled games, and decided that HoS deserved to be the one to get permanently promotion-banned from F95 for having 2% of its current content behind an Early Access model, or temporary paywalls if you wanna go that far.
I am now being blackmailed by the same mod who wants to dictate how I monetize my game. His request boils down to "Remove all early-access content or your game stays banned and you can suck a cock." (He didn't explicitly say the last part!)
My game currently has a tiny amount of content that is temporarily reserved for supporters which is later made available for free to everyone. If you care to read more about how exactly it works, you can read through one of my posts on my game's page. With that, I want to raise the following questions for F95:
- Why can a single mod dictate how our games are monetized and If there are rules regarding monetization that allow them to do so, why are they not explicitly stated somewhere. More importantly, why are hundreds of games that engage in FAR more predatory practices, exempt from similar treatment when they are hosted on the same site for multiple years?
- Should any moderator of F95 have the ability to dictate promotion-eligibility based on what I can only imagine, is likely a personal vendetta of a power-tripping mod? Can we as developers somehow hold THEM accountable for fair and equal treatment? Or is that something we concede the moment we sign up for F95?
I have read through the rules and have no quarrel with F95 being predominantly a pirate website. My issue lies entirely with the fact that a single mod came up with his own rules and selectively applied them to my game, and my game alone.

As of now, the matter is entirely outside of my control.
Hey, on the bright side, I first saw your game here and went for Jonin support. It was a free version though, not pirated one like now.I have neither the will, nor the power to report and delete messages myself. Pirates will pirate
