Why is it always the people who have no idea about what the rules actually say about when to apply the "abandoned" tag that are the most ignorantly self-righteous and whines the loudest about needing to apply it?

Mate, I'm using this site for years, and believe me... Rules always make zero sense here. And according to rules, even DEV doesn't make an update for years if he/she saying he/she is working on the game, that means he/she didn't abandon the game and the main threat doesn't get abandoned tag. Is it makes sense? No. But that is how that rule works, so you are wrong here about rules.

So you are saying that the mods should assume that a Dev is lying when they say that they are working on the game? Yeah, that makes sense. How would you propose that they determine if a game is abandoned or not without involving the DEVELOPER of said game?
Not to mention that a abandoned tag on this site means absolutely zero when comes to determine if a project is abandoned or not.

No, I didn't say that. Are you some kind of psychic and knowing things I didn't say without saying it? No, I'm saying after some time (Like 6 months) games should take abandoned tag whether DEV saying he/she is working or game or not. That would make sense and warn other potential new players game not got an update for some time and probably not gonna get either like this game. Do you love this game? That's fine. Do you love this DEV? Thats fine. He/She had some problems in his/her life and that's why he/she didn't make an update? That's fine and totally ok as well. We are all human and have our own lives and problems. But non of them gonna change he/she didn't make an update for a year. And we all know we not gonna get an update worth 1 year at all. And this is not the first time this happens. This game development was always like this and ever had stable development. So giving game threats like this abandoned tag would make a lot of sense until the threat got updated again and maybe stop people asking when the game gonna get a new update. Whenever I come to this thread I'm always seeing people asking when the game gonna get a new update and fanboys attacking that person (which happened to me as well) and that's just big nonsense and maybe abandoned tag could avoid some drama who knows... Maybe abandoned tag gives people the impression that the game not gonna get update any time soon but still can get update of nowhere when DEV decides...
Edit: After seeing DEV's comment about this subject I'm gonna say agree with him. "This game takes forever to update!" tag is a great idea and this game must be the first game to get that tag

Whether it's one year worth of update or not is arbitrary and pointless to argue about since everyone will perceive it differently.
Threatening a Dev with an abandoned tag on a pirate forum that is not in any way affiliated with the development of the game......Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.......maybe you want them to decide what a Dev should eat and when to go to the bathroom as well?

Wow- lots of negative energy here. Maybe focus on the positive aspects of the game and encourage the dev?
This is a Pirate site- not like most of us has given the dev money..
So how about some nice words instead? (they happen to be free! Like this site!)

I'm trying to think on how the abandoned tag would affect me.
Possible outcomes after seeing the abandoned tag:
1. Oh noes! I have to release the update I have been secretly holding on to for some reasons!
2. Oh noes! My game is abandoned? Guess I have to delete the game folder then. Damn it!
3. Oh noes! I forgot to close the door after sitting down! Now I have to stand up again...
The abandoned tag really doesn't have any negative effects. Majority of the player base enter the game around the update times. Which means even if you have the abandoned tag, it gets removed because you just updated the game.
And if a dev really cared about increasing playerbase/patrons, long update time isn't the way. Short update burst are where the heavy traffic is. Long updates actually decrease the playerbase. I feel like those things are common knowledge.
Anyway, what those guys really want is a new tag called "This game takes forever to update!" tag. Which is fine if they want that, but there is a subsection in the forum for suggestions. Doing it here is a bit silly.
But even tho f95 is a place for pirating, they still want to have a good relationship with the devs. They have done many activities to help devs and there are even subsections only for devs.
I don't think they want to abuse their own tags and start threatening devs. The abandoned tag is used against the situation where it is clear the game is abandoned.

Status on the game to change the lane a bit!
As everyone knows, I've wished to change the assets for Lucania for a long while now. Currently, I am using
Lucania has always supposed to be a rugged and street looking town. A town that is more close knitted and 'family' like.
Back when I first had to show Lucania (Gracie town event) I was very new to daz and searching. So this was the closet thing I could find. There simply were too few towns.
But now, with a good amount of time I started to search for a new town again! ... Still nothing tho. People really aren't making towns for daz.
The town is important for the story and especially in season 2, so, I said fuck it. I make it from scratch (and by that I mean finding as many assets I can from the shop and combining them and change it with shaders to make it look unique.)
The first part of the town I've worked on is the marketplace. This is also where Cordia's cafe is which is basically where she is most of the day and where people come to ask for help and what not. With season 2 focus on Cordia it is one of the most important places.
This is inside the Cafe. Still need to have some extra street stuff like lamps and poles. But mostly done.
Outside view versions as previews will be sent to discord once I feel it's ready.
But guys, I think you can get a feeling of what I'm looking for (i hope) so feel free to post some links to the daz shops of assets you would think could be fitting. I still have other locations to make as well.
Not all locations will be rendered, but most of the important parts.

which is based on a German town. But the town is far from how I want Lucania to look like. Ignoring the fact that the game is Italian based, and the town is German, the town is simply too 'clean' and city life-like.Lucania has always supposed to be a rugged and street looking town.

JJJ84 up for the task? As our local Deluca scholar, I could seen you as qualified to look for appropriate Daz assest for Luciana.
Perhaps could even cure your question addictions.

What about Antonio's club that he goes to? MC has the option to help Isebella. Just a thought.

Funny you should ask.JJJ84 up for the task? As our local Deluca scholar, I could seen you as qualified to look for appropriate Daz assest for Luciana.

Never was all that interested in browsing Daz assets before, but with Hopes asking people if they could spot some town assets, I just started browsing the Daz shop site (I'm no Daz expert by any means, and looking through it half out of interest [looking at variety of assets], and half in thinking perhaps I can find something which might help Hopes with the search for town assets).
Don't know whether it will cure my question addiction though

Most likely will give you another one.Don't know whether it will cure my question addiction though
Also it could give you a nightmare if you see how much of the models were copied 1:1 (including their name).

I am not sure if you are aware or maybe even you yourself have played around with blender. There are tons of "free 3D assets" (royalty free) or even paid ones which can be loaded into blender and converted to be used in Daz. Textures/polygons adjusted etc. so if you are looking for something specific that might be a way to go. Also mentioning this cause of the "other locations" backdrops/cities/villages could be made in blender ( or even found ) and used in Daz. Unfortunately the Daz shop is quite limited in what is available and I imagine you end up spending a lot of time using specific objects from different resources to combine them into a "scene" you like.. Might be worth looking into anyways..

Yeah, that always seemed off to me. Especially the German language signs. Thus I placed Lucania someplace in Southern Tyrole in my headcanon, I think I mentioned it a few times. So in principle I like the idea of "relocating" it.
However: are you sure a redo of the city scenes is worth it? I mean, if it is to you then it is. But I assume you want to move forward as well.

Yes, I agree. And after that, you will never come back here. Deal! You welcome.
