OK, tough guy, feel free to try "shutting me the fuck up".
Let me put it in terms you might understand: if YOU are not paying for it, it is FREE to YOU. If you didn't pay a dime, you literally have no claim (or say, for that matter) in when, how, or to whom the product is distributed- period. It's free to you, even if you've contributed--- and that goes back to that definitions I posted earlier. You act as though you paid some tax, or your buddy paid some tax, to get you the game... except tax is compulsory.... there is nothing about this game, or it's relevant sites that is compulsory beyond being 18+ . The game is financed with DONATIONS... a concept you seem a bit too thick to understand. They're voluntary. It's not a business transaction; you aren't buying a 'drink'... in fact, you aren't "Buying" anything. This is NOT 'quid pro quo'... you aren't exchanging money for product, service, or anything else. IF you are contributing, you are doing it voluntarily-- and can stop at any time. You STILL aren't paying for the product if you come back later and get the game, but DON'T CONTRIBUTE A DIME. What, you think a one-time $5.00 donation means you've made anything close to an equivalent exchange? No. You donated $5.00 to a good cause, and now you tap your foot with your hand out expecting something in return. You didn't read the definition of "Donation", did you? If you're expecting something in return, you've misunderstood the whole transaction-- and who's fault would that be? (hint: not the author, nor anybody else buy the person you see in the mirror)
Will you get something if you donated? Evidence points to yes... this author has been super transparent on the Discord, and if he's guilty of anything, it's of being a perfectionist that wants to give his fan's the best-- for which you and your little bully buddies have set out thrash him publicly, repeatedly. Again, I'll stand up for Komi all day-- I don't much give a shit what some cyberbully and his lackeys think of me, no matter how often they threaten to "shut me the fuck up". That threat alone is toxic enough to prove what I've been saying:
Y'all are just schoolyard bullies, beating up on good people because nobody taught you any better. Don't you have anything better to do than try to wreck someone's livelihood because they aren't conforming to your standards?
Is that clear enough? Do you need it animated? A flow chart, perhaps? Shall I break out the crayons?
Ratio that, you keyboard thug.
