It's a bit offensive that this was hyped up and not even a one sentence update or final statement can be made. The response will be this is a volunteer project so go fuck yourself, but keep in mind many of us have willingly donated our money to support this project. Is there an obligation therefore for someone to type one sentence that will take 15 seconds? No. But is it the right thing to do? Yes.

I agree with you. It would be nice to at least get some communication on it. It is possible though that they're still in lingo on whatever process they're going with, and therefore have nothing to share at this current moment.

March 5th was the last "update" from Sirken saying he doesn't really know but thinks it's in progress. Sorry that asking for an update on something that the devs hyped and told us about and even created an empty server for in prep is "entitlement." And yes, when I give thousands of dollars [I have], I do feel as though I deserve a 15 second "hey this is no longer going to happen," or "yep still on the table potential timeline of X." I stopped donating several months ago because of this, and while I doubt the project is going to go belly up due to my decision not to, from a business perspective, it's nonsensical why you wouldn't want to simply give what will take less than 1 minute of time to let your fans know is going on.

Asking for an update is fine. Wanting more frequent updates is understandable. Wanting updates because you donated money is not fine, it's entitlement.

I want discord updates myself. I'm anxious to play it. But there's no way in hell I'm going to have a child's attitude about it.

I guess you shouldn't donate money if you don't understand what a donation means.

You seem to lack basic reading comprehension. I stated I no longer donate in part due to this. I recognize no one is required to do anything. I also recognize that not doing so is 1) kind of a dick move 2) a bad decision from a business perspective if my goal is to get people invested emotionally in my project and help donate toward the cost of providing my service to people.

Keep on defending someones inability to give a fifteen second sentence as "entitlement" though, you fit right in with the crowd who respond to any inquiry into the project with "FUCK U ITS FREE LOLZ!'

so u expect your rmt money to get you preferential treatment and devs to build a server for you.

honestly if you're putting thousands of dollars to p99, you deserve all the angst that no discord server will bring :o

I'm glad you brought this up because I was waiting for someone to make the false argument of paying for a custom server. I'm not the one who announced, or even asked for that matter, for a Discord server. The staff announced this server, put it on the front page [where it remains to this day], and hyped it up. I am simply asking what the status is, an answer we haven't heard since March only to ultimately result in a locked thread with no response. While it may be hard for people who are overly immersed in the game to understand this point, my "complaint" has nothing to do with Discord itself. I don't even know if I would ever play the server in all honesty. It's more to do with the lack of communication which I find puzzling, because it's incredibly easy to provide a one to two sentence "Hey guys doesn't look like we'll be doing this after all, sorry about that and take care!" Apparently, even asking for something as brief and to the point as that is considered "entitlement," to those who would defend almost anything as "it's free yowl!"

The attitude of some people on here is so obnoxious at times. Yeah sure I get it, it's a volunteer based service that's provided to us that most of you don't pay for. That doesn't make it unreasonable to ask for a very brief update on something that hasn't been discussed in six months.

I'm curious about status too, but I understand they aren't sure really and that's fine ^^ Nilbg posted within the last month or two indicating they still planned to release dis bird following velious and some sort of correct timeline server after that. Someone even stuck that quote in their sig. Do a search and you'll see what he said. It may not be enough to make you happy, but it is something ^^

The ragebeards are in full force in this thread. The Discord server is in the works. What more do you want to hear? If they had more info that was worth sharing, I'm sure they would. It's not like the devs just sit around dealing with P99 all day. They have lives and jobs and shit to do. They've got to put a roof over their head just like you and I. Take it easy.

You're allowed to be anxious about the release and the info from devs. You're not entitled to be a baby about it. It'll be done when it's done, and no amount of whining is going to change it. If you want to sling shit against a wall, take it to Rants and Flames.

If they wasted their time answering every post asking about when something was going to happen, people would still be asking "when's Velious coming out?"

They've got jobs and coding an Emu is their hobby, I'm guessing that they just don't have the time to read and respond to every single thread on these forums, especially redundant threads that ask the same questions every few weeks.

And how long would it take you to type it every time somebody asked when something was going to happen on these forums? The devs are not genies to be summoned at your whim.

I suppose next you'll be telling us about how you should replace the devs with your own team, that you manage from your home.

I can tell I'm on blue forums when the emp is being disrespected like this.

He's verified all of his claims. He runs 3 businesses, a household, a marriage, and his kids. He has posted proof of everything he has ever claimed including a perfect LSTAT score. What scores do you have to talk down on the emp like this? Probably got your G.E.D. and scoop poop in the city park and call yourself a government contractor :rolleyes:

Just figured I'd help set you straight since you seem to think otherwise. Have a great day.
