Somehow this is starting to resemble aftermath of a pyramid scheme where those who have invested money are in a desperate denial, trying to grasp onto anything in order to believe they haven't lost their money for nothing, while rest are calling them idiots. I've witnessed such an event myself and at times it was really difficult to tell whether those who got scammed actually believed that it was all a mistake and the operation would still go on after a temporary hick-up or if they were just too proud to admit it and tried to convince everyone else that they're not as gullible as the whole thing made them seem like.
Of course in this case there's really been a real product which we've all been able to enjoy, 1.99995 alpha as latest proof, so calling this thing a scam would be way too harsh. But you can't really blame people for not believing there's anything more left. I still believe there's something going on, I've just stopped holding my breath a while ago. In fact, I'm a bit worried about how Deem is doing mentally right now.
