Not.
Of the 8 or so devs online, most of them are reading the linked thread, a quaint example of goodwill in the SotA community. Admittedly, it could be argued that support of the game isn't hard to find there, or that Grave is still in the honeymoon period of game interaction (where dreams run wild and little is known), but even if that is the case, it's refreshing all the same to see a positive attitude and appreciation of the work of someone else.
It reminds me of the earliest telethons, which I observed with great pleasure (though back then Rustic actually was a dev). Seeing the devs having a beer and talking videogames on a down-to-earth level went a long distance in humanizing them. For those wondering, there is no argument or claim at the core of this thread. It just brought me back to the early days when anything seemed possible, and I thought I'd share that memory.
Describe how you used to interact with SotA back when you were starting out, before you became jaded, were banned, or became IM.

I'll leave that there.
