Post Lets get the ball rolling again!

Ian, when we first met I could tell you were going to be a great developer, listen to the community and implement ideas and concerns we all have, but I wish I could say you still have the ambition you had when we first met. Don't get me wrong, I still see some changes every now and then, but we used to see updates every other day or so.
This game has the potential to be very great and even ~ a year after I started, I still check back nearly daily. I hope you read this and decide to actively develop again, I know you want this to be as successful as I do.

Regards,
FailCard

(I have seen a little more activity in the past couple of days, mostly replying to app reviews and the password reset, which is actually why I decided to post.)

Do you people realize that money doesn't grow on trees?
And that the human body can't be sustained by "good feedback"?

This game costs nothing to download and play. But it costs to develop and maintain it. There is work and cost alone just to maintain the servers.

I'm sure Ian didn't just sit back and think "Y'know what? Fucket I'm bored with this shit. -stops updating".
A more realistic theory would be that he doesn't have as much time to work on this game, or that the further this game goes, the longer the updates take because of the extra details involved and more maintenance involved.

Sorry if I came across as annoyed or arrogant. I was just saying it like it is.

Money grows on games and the only way he's going to get the money back that he put into the game is by finishing it. Leaving the game up on a host is what costs money, not developing it. So leaving it up but not developing it is what loses you money and players.

Your argument is flawed from the bottom up.

Clearly you didn't even understand the points I made.

Ian isn't going to neglect his other projects which DO MAKE MONEY to invest more time in a project which DOESN'T MAKE MONEY.

Yes, it will in the future, but that future is only a realistic possibility if Ian doesn't go bankrupt beforehand.

And that whole "money grows on games" bit is just nonsensical.

You state that Ian is making money from his other projects and then you say spending time developing this game will make him go bankrupt? That makes no sense. Every project at one point doesn't make you money, lol.
& Looking at his development area, I don't think money is a problem.

Again, you don't properly understand what I write.
Quote me on where I said developing this game would make Ian go bankrupt. Seriously, if you can quote me on where I explicitly said that I will accept your argument.

Until then you have no argument.

I'm not going to argue with someone who doesn't care about the future of this game and is asking for bans.

It was never an argument, because you had no argument.

And your response now proves that.

Class dismissed.
