In any case, that hasn't happened on the RoF board.

LOL, I don't think you saw the RoF board(s) when the game was first released.
This is all part of the development cycle; we may have been spoilt by weekly updates, but we've also been spoilt by false suggestions from the team. Did we expect too much? No, we didn't. Luthier has said himself that the game was in a poor state on release, but silence from the team leads to a lot of (false) assumptions.
Just grit your teeth and bare with it :-P That's all you can do.
Personally, the whingeing is just a product of the development process. I think it's clear why many are unhappy, and considering that many spent their money on false pretences, it is quite acceptable.

Such authoritarian stances make no sense to me. TBH, it's usually just to cover up the fact that the game is in a terrible state. I think it's nice to see that Luthier can stand it, and yes-he is thick skinned enough to 'soldier' through it, and doesn't need internet fan-bois to hold his hand (this isn't directed at anyone BTW)

Apparently they learned their lesson. Whining posts are quickly locked now.

I wouldn't ban bug reports. I'd ban the whining about the lack of hand-holding by the devs. I'd ban the "I told you so" posts. I'd ban the repeated "why didn't you know about this problem" posts. I'd encourage bug reports.

I am afraid to ask this, but how? :rolleyes: Do we say it with regular development updates? ;-) "Look guys, that you said mistakes on the last week, we corrected these...."

Really? You don't know how to report any bugs you find?

Good!! Hopefully that means a lot less whining about the lack of hand-holding by Luthier.
