lordraleigh, first, I'm not trying to take personal shots at you in this post, but these are just my observations I have made while doing my duties as a forum mod and reading over basically everything that gets posted on these boards.
Generalizing now, whenever I read something you write, it takes the form of one or both of two subjects: Politics, and how the Devs aren't treating the players right. I know that isn't what you go on about in every post you make, but it seems the majority of the time, your posts can be grouped into one or both of those categories.
Quite frankly, there are many people who are sick of hearing what seems to be the same message from you over and over again. So you have to understand that many people wish you would just be silent.
I play this game to get away from real world politics. Communist, capitalist, fascism, whatever it is, leave it out of the game world. The settings say the land of PS is ruled a certain way. And that's good enough for me. No need to poke and prod at every little tiny detail. Is it so hard to just accept the government structure the settings dictate there is and just go with that? If you don't like it, then rather than poke and prod, and pester at every stones throw of the way, annoying people to all ends, perhaps it's time you found a different game to play. If you don't want to do that, and don't want to accept what the settings dictate, then please don't be surprised when people snap at you.
About the devs thing. The majority of people here that aren't devs are treated with respect and their input is valued. If that weren't the case, this whole forum wouldn't even exist. They could have simply said, we'll make a game our way, and not care about what anyone else thinks. But instead this fourm exists and player input is given on these boards and it is read and taken into consideration.
It's quite simple really, if the player gives the devs the proper respect they deserve, then I have never seen any dev not give this respect back to them. It's only those select few that come in here and start mouthing off like they own the game or something, that are treated as little spoiled children.
It's simply a fact of, you be nice to me, I'll be nice to you. Why does the player have to be nice first? Simple. The devs have already initiated the "be nice" concept thing by allowing anyone to play their game. If they wanted to, they could say, "fine, we won't share this with you" and take the game away. But no, they offer the game to everyone to try out and enjoy. So when a few people come back and start acting like the devs owe them something, I can completely understand the devs getting a little peeved at their ungratefulness.
Right now, the majority of your posts is just that, you seem ungrateful to what was freely given to you in your posts, and as such, you aren't going to be treated as well as others. Now, I don't know if this is what you truly mean when you make posts, but again, this seems to be your general tone, and becuase of that, you aren't exactly in anyone's favor right now.
I believe I tried to explain this concept to Datruth while they were still around in regards to his general tone of his posts as well. He, unfortunately, didn't want to listen, and well, he is no longer welcome on these boards becuase of his actions. I do hope you will think about what I have said.
