An article was floating around today that is relevant to Arelith.

I’m not sure if we have it easier on NWN or not. On one hand, a lot of people certainly understand that developing for a PW isn’t a paid job, but on the other hand, I’ve gotten harsh feedback before and I’m sure many of the Arelith devs could say similar.

Re: Cost of Doing Business (as a game dev)
I've been pretty unforgiving in response to some of the game developments put into Arelith in the past and I regret it. I hope all you guys who've taken heat from me for your hard work will accept my apology. I do appreciate your work, even if I didn't agree with the content at the time when it was implemented.

I almost posted that article here yesterday.
I held off, however, because while there's definitely a level of salt in some comments here that goes above and beyond what is reasonable towards volunteers working to make the gameworld more enjoyable, as an actively moderated community we've avoided the worst that happens on the open 'net. Still, I'd be happy if everyone in the community read it

I read it, and personally, if any player ever sends the Devs and Coders a message like they get, I hope to gods they are permabanned on the spot.
