Well bud you think what ever you want. You seem to have no problems saying offensive things when you feel like and also your mind didnt grasp the point I was trying to help the Dev's not attack them. I got a little secret for you, you do not own this game! Lets see how far this projects gets when there is no donations. I am not your enemy here so dont attack me for saying things.
Fact is we are losing more members then we are gaining.

To an extent, I can agree.
No, the devs don't own the game. However, they are trying to bring back a game that we all know and love. Also, we are losing members. I have documented how many I see on when I log in, and it is slowly decreasing (aprx 2 months and down from avg 230 to avg 160), though, my figures are unscientific, just observations.
A LARGE propensity of the posts here are based on emotional responses to the disposition of the SS8, first and foremost being Pmster's rant about not having the print. (IMNHO - a rather childish response. No, I don't have the print either).
Egos and emotions aside, this being a stress test, I don't see it as a problem. There will be a player wipe before the next phase, the issue will be fixed, and no one will have the print until the proper steps have been taken to get it. Granted, if the devs want to remove it, they are rebuilding the game, it is their choice, but, they are building it for the folks who play, so as Lannister has advocated (his job in all this) the players want it, please include this in your decision. There may soon be less players than what the donations can cover, and the game will falter. Who would leave if it was left in? Who would leave if it wasn't?
Devs, thanks for bringing back a game we all missed. Thanks for being patient. Please boil down the emotions in these posts and take them for their basic intent. If you get fired up, wait a few to respond and come back logically. Players, do the same thing. Ranting will garner a negative response to what you are truly after.
Thanks!
