i originally had posted a long reply here, but then I realised you were right.

Even if we assume my points had merit, they were over shadowed by the foolishly arrogant way I conveyed them.
I should have explained my points in a clearer and more friendly way to begin with.

I'm sorry for being a douche.

Ian is good developer.. If you think different just go and make your own better game and try to make money on it... if you don't know how to do it jus shut up and be patient... Making games is not something like "click!" and "done!". Its hard work.

I know Ian is a good developer. I'm a Computer Science major at my university, I know what it takes and how long it takes to program something. I play and have played MMOs that have one developer and have detailed patch notes (updates) every single day.

Granted, updating the game is their job, but there could definitely be more time put into this.

The game is being updated more lately, but before that there were no updates for months, without any notice to the players or even forum activity from Ian.

If you guys havnt noticed.. Ian had a kid. Thats far more important (in a family-value sense) than updating a social society - orientated game. Even if it is his own desires to create the game, some things comes first. Rushing, or down-grading him for his work is foolish. In a very arrogant way. Let the man be, and when updates come, take in consideration that he is working with (family matters, personal-life matters, work, bills, other applications, and society). This game is just one aspect of his life work. So let the man rest when he can and wants to. Now OctoH4x, you plan on reading his codes and making a mirror of his game? If so, in public I only have one question about it. From a fellow programmer to another.
