The Problem with the AE forums IMO are deeper, JWE got ambushed by another negative poster who does not understand what the scope of WITP is. The real problem and here I agree with Osterhaut is with Matrix. ELF , Terminus , Don , AndyMac and Don are basically being attacked by a small minority of posters who do not know what this game is and the depth it has. This IMO has been a systematic attack which started circa 30-40 days ago with the first attack on Don. Matrix has been closing its eyes regarding certain posters who have attacked the DEVS indirectly by attacking the game.
I used to lurk on the WITP forums and one thing I remember in that forum was civilised and opinions were respected even if they were crazy but they where respected. Terminus used to answer questions with 1 word and used to irritate a lot of people but he was funny and always to the point I miss him but he was one of the people who did the naval OOBs which are probavly the most accurate in any game I have played till now he got attacked and then banned by matrix result he has quit AE and the forum and now no more downfall scenario. Elf created the Air combat system of AI and was extremely knowledgeble of air fighting he got attacked because of a couple of inconsistencies in the air combat system and he finished quitting because nobody supported him. Don and JWE they are probably the 2 people that can give you any data on any merchant marine ships that was involved in the pacific war down probably to the smallest boat they got attacked as well and Don quit and now he is doing the babes Mod and not any future additions to the game. JWE posted 1 comment in a thread and got banned for 1 week and now he is quitting because a player who does not know how to play the game. Andymac who writes the scripts for the scenarios we play and an extremely patient and helpful person is starting to lose his patience because of repeated attacks at the game he is probably the next developer who will quit.
What is wrong here ? Matrix you should support your Developers even if you will lose a sale or the long term effects will be people not buying the game because of lack of interest in your games. You will always have people complaining but you should see it is a percentage of the total sales of your games, Put up a poll in the forum and ask the players of the game what they think of AE Dev team and the game and you will see that the great majority of people support them and wish them back in these forums and want these negative posters out of this forum. Please Matrix do not let AE be another Harpoon 3 where the game and the forum imploded because of infighting the same thing is happening here if you do not start to support the developers.
JWE , Don, Terminus and ELF Please remember that the vast majority support you and thank you for the game you helped create and really want you back to these forums. Please all of you reconsider your positions.
Now i am going back to play this superb game which has kept me addicted from its launch and ruined my social life, Soon I will start the invasion of Japan.
