Yes he is very well known for speaking the truth isn't he.

Yes Tree, for once you are right.

Its not Luthiers fault you take everything he says as a promise when he's gone out of his way to say this is what they hope to achieve.

Chivas, during development there were lots of untruths told, to suggest that never happened is simply erasing the past. You are more than happy to be hoodwinked and i'm pleased for you, it makes life easy that way, for me its 'once bitten twice shy'. Lets just take the very latest of examples, i.e. community manager, why tell us something that is never going to happen, he brings it on himself, unless of course the Com manager got lost in the dynamic weather whilst trying to get SLI working, he shouted for help but no-one could here him because the tree's were enabled.

Since a lot of good folks here have been contributing to the "Bug Thread" to help out luthier?

Perhaps?
We should try to help luthier with the "Community Manager" process.
I believe...that it wouldn't be difficult to compile a list and nominate one of the respected Forum Members for this position. Further, I believe, that this "process" should be initiated by one of our Moderators.

What do you think?

I think its a good idea, however that person would have to be in contact with Luthier on a regulat basis, as of now it seems he doesn't want to speak to his own customers so unless we get his mum to do it we are back to square one.

Could'nt agree more mate,the guy just does'nt want to know,we don't hear from him at all now.

No one is calling for a daily,or even weekly update of news,but when he can't even be assed to keep us in the picture after weeks have passed,one has to ask the question are they interested in this anymore,I'm not so sure they are.

I'm sorry to compare one with the other but Jason over at 777 who is the big dev of ROF frequently keeps his customers interested by giving them updates on WIP's and other intersting topics.The guy just seems more genuinely interested in his customers and the sim.

I've always supported COD,it could be superb,it has the potential,but of recent I've been getting a tad miffed that the devs have by their own silence have become disenchanted with the whole thing,I hope I can be proved wrong.

He says he won't communicate on the forum as this takes him away from development,but I don't buy that,how long does it take to put us in the picture by giving us a small update on here.

I dare say that there will be some on here that will question my patience,but in all truth this non communication stance from the devs can only bring with it apathy and finally despondancy.

I've disagreed with a lot of what you've said over the months, but I have to admit, that did make me laugh.

My life experience and instincts developed from same....lead me to believe?

"I voted it down due to the awful development team, i have no trust left in them at all"

Any company that deliberately alienates their customers will?
Go bust....

I don't want that for myself or anyone else....there is no excuse for this, no
matter who makes one....

I really wish things were different...It's not my fault, it's not your fault...it's their fault...

If? I broke the rules here....I accept responsibility for my actions...I have more remorse for the game...than I do for any punitive action taken towards my person...

I just noted...that Steam is updating...hopefully, something good....

Salute Tree_UK...and all others...
