Why has this forum been dropped?

from PolMach Forums
About half the time this forum is down. Additionally all forums have been working very slowly if they're working at all. What gives?

I'm beginning to think this company is about out of money and the latest bake sale on the corner didn't fetch as much money.

A couple of weeks ago Stardock posted that Galactic Civ is being updated and would be released as soon as the QA was done. This is odd I thought. Because I had seen a previous post from Froggyboy explaining they didn't have any money for QA right now. So I posed the question as to how if they don't have any money for QA to do updates for PM, how can they have any money to do an update for another game?

I not only Not recieved an answer, The announcement of the Galactic Civ update and the entire forum for game support was taken down for a few days, -anyone notice that? and my question, as I posed it was gone, vanished, sanitized.

I'm beginning to think that there is not going to be an update on PM at all. The problems with the website are as Whoman has pointed out are curious as well. I can't help but wonder who else out there has thought the same thing.

Okay
A correction, (Apparently this is what I get for not having coffee first and then writing.)

My previous post I mentioned a question I posed about the QA and money, I was wrong, That posted question still exists in Daniel Ruosses ,"Feb 1, where is version 1.1?" just two down from this posting. I just rembered wrong where I put the post I wrote, but the announcement of Galactic Civ update is gone.

However, aside from a brief mental Faux pau, My concerns and question posted above still remains.

The problem is fairly straight forward: The popularity of JoeUser.com and WinCustomize.com are increasing faster than our IT people have been able to keep up.

I have no idea what "Reagan's Clone" is talking about. Galactic Civilizations has been released for 2 years. Galactic Civilizations II won't be out for nealry another year. The Political Machine update has to go through Ubi Soft prior to being made public and that UBI Soft (the publisher) doesn't have any budget for QA so we're having to negotiate that out.
