There were actual and valid reasons (see Lucas' post above) and anyway, a moderator is not forced to give explanations. When you register on a forum you accept an agreement, that usually involves moderators' action, so you should have thought twice before complaining, or just before registering, if you didn't want to follow the rules.

They move because the game is more active, different, interesting, the community is nice, competitive aswell as pub scene are both fun to play and they don't feel like the game has been "stucked" for 2 years (ik devs are working, but the non-release is frustrating :/)
Exactly, it's a different game. There is no way you can compare AC to Sauer, they're totally different, even the engine is different.
About the slow development, well, every game takes its own time to be developed, plus involving the fact that AC devs may have a busier real life or any other factors rather than Sauer's, so I would be thankful instead, because they may wake up someday and toss all of this in the air, and then farewell AC!

(24 Apr 13, 08:55AM)DamDam Wrote: But I believe some suggestions were great and lots of people thought the same, however, most of those ideas were rejected or not implemented for some (unknown?) reasons.
Who knows, they may be implemented in future releases, why not? The game is in continuous evolution, it won't stop at 1.2. It will go on over and over, and if you take a look at the current dev status thread, you will be astonished by the many many changes to the game.

(24 Apr 13, 08:55AM)DamDam Wrote: The main thing reproached to devs isn't that they're not working (because some obviously are), it's simply that they have a massive work, and seem not to want to share a part of their task when many people are ready to help. And then when people cry/whine about the late release, they respond that they "don't have enough people to fix bugs and help the release"... paradoxal uh?
I didn't get this part, but if you mean actual sharing of their work, you can take a look at SVN, betas, report bugs, etc... But I honestly didn't get what you mean here, so I'm not sure about the answer.

(24 Apr 13, 08:55AM)DamDam Wrote: Well when you develop a public game, you basically do it for those who play it. When you develop for free, the only difference is that the community shouldn't expect something from you, as you do it for free, you don't DUE anything because it is not a job. But when people from the community are ready to give their help & knowledge for free, to make the game better, why don't you accept it?
See above. You can help in anyway possible, by reporting bugs, etc. And AFAIK skilled coders have always been accepted in the team (see tempest, VonDrakula (not in the team but gave contributions), Brahma...

Anyway, since he's back, i've notice that he has banned several persons everytime they would complain about something related to devs. Before he came back, I can not remember that many ban entries and not even a week after he came back active on the forums, he started the "stfu or ban" campaign.
RK was already active in 0.93, and probably even back. Please note that complaining about devs work is not the same as insulting, and he probably used to ban offensive people, not complaining people (lol, if so, half of AC forum would be annihilated at a glance :D)

(24 Apr 13, 08:55AM)DamDam Wrote: I don't really appreciate the fact that some mods "allow themself" to remove, delete or silence what people want to say as soon as it's criticisms or remarks. If people who develop the game do not accept criticsm, advices or help... what are we left to?
Be quiet, and wait some more months sticking to AC ? People do not want that and it's basically the reason why people are leaving AC..
You may be right about the silencing people thing, but then again, there's always a reason. Posts that may be considered "dangerous" because of a flamewar coming from them, get deleted before they become harmful.
And I think it's better to prevent the illness rather than healing it.
