How is it possible for you to be THIS bad at your job? How is it possible to be so fail at replicating a text game? How did you manage to screw up so many different aspects of your code, making the game almost unplayable?
Why is it there are MAJOR bugs that haven't even been touched yet? What exactly do you do all day? This last update you did to fix some bugs and increase performance was pretty pathetic, to be honest. Speed was not improved at all, and the number of bugs you fixed seems extremely low considering how long it was since your last fix update. Have you even looked at the bugs forum? It sure as hell doesn't look like you have even tried knocking down that list in a REASONABLE amount of time.
There are coders playing this game that could work far more efficiently than you, it's embarrassing you are all we have to get this thing moving, since you clearly are in over your heads. You have a solid list of bugs waiting to be fixed, so what the hell is taking so long to fix them? You do work eight hours a day, right? And there really are two of you, right? Why does it take you two weeks to fix a handful of bugs? Why don't you seem to have any plan or clue as to how to proceed with getting this **** fixed?
Do you understand how unacceptable it is to just randomly set back time because you screwed something up? Do you have any inkling as to what that can do to a kingdom in the middle of a war, a wave, or even just standard play? You continue to show you have no clue about what is most important to the players.
Why don't you set a specific time to update the code? We need to know when you are taking the game down ahead of time. I don't care if you just finished a fix and are excited to implement it, give a day's notice, be professional maybe! I will give you an example, since I'm sure you have never before seen how to properly deal with your customers:
Perhaps this way you won't keep screwing us in the ass every time you think it's acceptable to randomly take the game down. And while you are waiting that 24 hours to update the code, you can... *gasp* ...FIX MORE BUGS!!Great news gang, we have a line-up of bug fixes ready to implement to the code! To make this as inconvenient as possible for the players, we are going to notify you now of a scheduled downtime for tomorrow, at XX:XX GMT. At this time the game will be down for approximately 1 hour. Apologies in advance if this takes a bit longer than planned, but we hope to get it finished in an hour. So make sure to plan for at least an hour of downtime on that date, and notify your players! Thanks for your patience.
You are an embarrassment. The grace period of being lenient due to the old code "hack" is over, as you have not shown any serious progress over the past 3 weeks.
I would like to say screw you in advance for destroying this game. I have a feeling that very soon I will be married with 2 kids, a house and a dog. And it will be all your fault.
