Lookee what I just found... Do you believe it was only two people that were removed? If it was, I'm one of them. Who's the other? BTW, Starr likes to throw around the phrase "blatant lies" a lot. Of course, he seems to be intimately familiar with the concept. lol  |

For the record Steam does not allow us to remove any reviews and to date we have only flagged two reviews because of disinformation. And neither of those reviews have been removed! If this is true, then who is responsible for removing SotA reviews on Steam? |

Starr "Goatse" Long prolly got scared. Check twitter's hashtags #LBSota, #ShroudoftheAvatar, #ShroudofAvatar, #portalarium
They are full of IM's and my articles on Portalarium's big scam. It's gonna get progressively worse. Just keep tweeting, bros. Tweet your long forum posts too, if you think they have a value and have proof of portalarium being ebil scammers. Spread the word, people need to know.

I think the majority of people giving negative reviews started out giving out constructive criticism, than after their thread, comment, review disappeared and or they got treated badly by the developers and or fanboys, they than started realizing that the developers are nothing but bullshit actors, resulting in some of the more harsh reviews. Most people I think can handle downtime, bugs, wipes, grinding, testing, people understand what comes with pre alpha. It's funny to see that Starr is trying to put the blame on people not understanding what pre alpha is and not realizing what the real issue is, the one that is making people complain, give a bad review, which is the dumb fuck people running the company doing everything ass backwards, ripping us off, doing corrupt stuff and not giving a shit in the process. Time to get a clue Captain Starr of the dumb fuck brigade.

Fact is reviews and such are disappearing off their steam forum, whatever, I have no experience with moderating anything within steam so I have no idea if developers actually have those privileges or not. I would think common sense is for steam to not allow that kind of manipulation to happen as it is easy for a company to stack their reviews, who knows.
I remember months back someone that works for steam joined shroud and was invited right away to join the moderator team, if the developers themselves cannot remove reviews and whatever else than it's quite possible that this person from steam is doing it for them.

Тhis should probably be investigated further. I would myself, if I had no life. Thankfully, that's not the case...  |

The steam person that joined was a lady and if I remember correctly they joined up just before shroud decided to go steam. I'll have to check my logs later to confirm exactly.

I will also say that it is kind of odd that shrouds steam rating is not near perfect, so maybe there is a lot more going on here than them just deleting every negative thing they see. Some of the negativity has to still be there for their rating to drop, but on the other hand, I've seen for myself certain things disappear off of there. Maybe there is something that people have been saying that enables them to get something removed, I can see them stooping that low to save their rating. If they really had the ability to delete whatever they want and were set out to improve their rating, I'd think they'd make it better than what it's sitting at. I haven't looked there in a while to see what people's negative reviews are actually about though. They could be getting anything that exposes their bullshit tactics deleted and they can't get the negative reviews that only talk about game mechanics, etc deleted. I think people stating the truth about developers trying to pull tricks is a great review, should be left for the world to see.

The interesting thing -- and something Starr and Chris forgot about -- is that there is such thing as the cached Internet.
I just finished searching for SotA reviews from 3, 6, and 9 months ago and the one's I can make out that are negative in the synopsis (you can only see a couple of lines) are missing from the Steam site. I've found way more than two already. Fucking liars.

Well look at warz debacle, something was only done after huge back lash.
I think all that can be done is post on the steam forum with no emotions a dot point brief of where they have gone wrong complete with references and point out their lies and evidence.

Maybe if the "friends" over at DayZ that have barely made any progress on their standalone forever, the creater of DayZ game, the one that followed in RG's footsteps selling out for bank and shroud combined their games into a melting pot of destruction and gtfo, they could be successful at something. But really what was the point of mentioning DayZ, do they feel special now?, I'd love to see these casual carebear developers cry playing DayZ, I'd rather watch them do that during hangout of the avatar than talk about fanboy bullshit.

OH and no we should not believe Starr. You have to read between the lines. He is using terms like "removed" "flagged" "flag" bla bla bullshit.
This is the same thing they did on their forum for ages, "we never ever delete anything, what are you guys talking about" when in fact they just hide them from view. Semantics.

The interesting thing -- and something Starr and Chris forgot about -- is that there is such thing as the cached Internet. Got links for the cached? For google.com, yahoo.com, and bing.com: After you get your search results, there is a small down arrow to the right of the link in each result. Click it and select cached page. That will show you a snapshot of the last time the page was cached. Each search engine caches at certain times, so they all can be different days up to a month old. This is good for recently deleted items. For older stuff, go to search.com and to a search. On the left you can click past day/week/month and get the cached pages for those time frames. Next is web.archive.org. You need the URL for this. Type it in and then select 'latest'. You'll get the latest page with a bar at the top you can use to scroll through all the available history. Try www.shroudoftheavatar.com. You can see the main site all the way back to March 2013. For the really old stuff, you need a special browser called the Tor browser. You'll be entering the Darknet with this one. This place is like an acid trip and there's some scary shit in there. You'll need to find the Hidden Wiki. Don't bother bookmarking anything on Darknet. URLs change daily, sometimes hourly. If you need "special" information, you can find someone who will get it for you. Keep your bitcoins handy. Get what you need and get the fuck out. :-) Have fun out there! |

Myrcello at it again.
Justifying devs deleting negative EA reviews and he believes it's in their rights.
Apparently reviewers abuse it

Portalarium want to put their shit out there to get money. People have a right to judge it in whatever fucking form it is currently in. It doesnt matter what "phase" the game is in. It is up, it is playable, and they want you to pay money for it. If you own the game, you aught to be able to post a review on it no matter what and the Developer should never be able to fucking revoke it. Portalarium need to harden the fuck up or get out of the fucking game. |
