I tried posting this on forums multiple times on the forums but the spam filter keeps catching me. I don't get it because my post isn't spam.

So I guess you can get banned and your posts can get deleted for accusing the staff of lying publicly. Doesn't matter if you've got good reason to believe they've lied. Just that you've accused them. You can even present the evidence what they said is true. You can even show proof of tell them how you knew that they knew what they said wasn't true. You still get banned. And they delete the post to bury the lead.

If you get angry and show it in a way they don't like such as using a ton of caps lock, even though you've made it clear you're already angry, and they keep doing the thing that makes you angry, thay doesn't matter they use that as an excuse to ban and delete.

And they do this while saying transparency is important to them. My freaking butt it is. When they are covering up what they're doing from the community. This is the same silencing tactics as described here. https://forum.plarium.com/mech-arena/702_game-discussion/1718784_plarium-silencing-tactics/

And my freaking butt it is the last time I raised transparency as an issue they also said transparency is important to them, and said they would answer any specific questions I had and they would answer them. Well I listed the questions and once again they never got answered.

They purposely avoid us they purposely avoid certain questions. They avoid you calling them out. They avoid to make us angry and get aggressive so they have an excuse to silence us. It's a whole lot easier than being accountable to the players.

Currently they're trying to avoid giving them an honest answer to a question I had about the timing of gear hub releases and cover up that they're being avoidant on that. And currently they're covering up them saying they would answer me and then not doing so.

This rules bullying has to stop. First with Drew and now with velocity (or maybe it's nightfury doing it). Fun stuff. The more I try to have a narrative the harder they make it. If theycall that transparency they must live in opposite land.

You all did a good job repeatedly killing that freaking deathwalker while its ability was active. Really doing something there making us make progress NOT

WHY ARE ALL THESE IDIOTS JUST REPEATEDLY KILLING DEATHWALKERS WHILE THEIR ABILITY IS ACTIVE LETTING THEM RECOVER TO FULL HP WE MAKE NO PROGRESS THAT WAY YOU'RE JUST HELPING THE ENEMY TEAM WIN

First I want to preface this post by saying this is not a doom post. I'm not coming here to say hytale is dying and that's a problem. There's plenty of people who are waiting for certain updates to play, and the community is strong still. Bigger updates will breathe new life into it as well.

But I want to ask who are the people who have been sticking around in the down time engaging with the community and discussion around the game? Who goes on the feature requests page of the website every day to look at and possibly upvote new suggestions? Who's coming up with new features to suggest, or maybe upvoting people who have already shared the ideas you've had? Who, like me, has taken it upon themselves to be engaged with the game and the community even in times of lesser activity to keep the wheels turning and shape the game all the way through early access?
