No, I work at Stardock – really!

No, I work at Stardock – really!

Every so often I get a flame private message from a fan of one of our games telling me to “give Stardock a break” because they see one of my posts as “flaming” Elemental or Demigod or Sins or Galactic Civilizations.

Just as a head’s up. I work at Stardock. I’m one of the developers on some of these games or am the product manager. It’s my job to complain about the games and to make them better. Please don’t PM me telling me that I need to be “nicer” about the games. 

Thanks!

It has been said that a fanboy can't improve a title, since he won't dare to change it.

Change and inovation are both based upon discarding existing material in favor of the new and untried. In this sense, you criticysing the game is the best thing we can ask for.

I can't believe this even has to be said.   That's awesome.

I'm mildly amazed that anyone could not know that you "work for" stardock.  As far as I can tell you are stardock.

As long as we have the same right to be critical about your game or doing, that's fine for me.

I wonder how many PMs this post started.

I can see some people facetiously PMing him after this to be nice to stardock.

Whether I have the right or not,I'll do it anyways.

Uh oh, I think Frogboy is crossing the line this time. Now he is impersonating the devs! Quick, someone call a dev so he gets perma-banned from the forums! :grin:
