okay, big woop, we give pokefarm money, not that its a competition but i can garuntee that i have invested muuuuch more money into this silly little site than the average player. I noticed a few other players who are big spenders like myself also react calmly towards the news of the minisprites being broken. The least a user that enjoys this site could do is give the staff some respect, there are tons of f2p players here so 'we give them our money lol' is a dumb thing to mention lol. What i cant comprehend is thinking that a team of volunteer artists that were being harrassed is less of a deal than a small site function being removed. yes, people went 'oh jeez thats serious, but stiiiilll couldve told us' when garthic explained what happened, but garthic was asleep when this was brought to niets attention so niet was upset and the art staff were upset, he did what he could considering the circumstances, maybe the situation had him so upset he considered making it a permanent change?? know, like give an inch and take a mile? so Niet just took away the inch. I don't know, id feel that way if entitled users went to my volunteer art staff and made them feel incompetent.... also I think i might be reading in between the lines too much but it really seems like what niet did was simply a band-aid for the issue, no minisprite preview? no artists getting un asked for messages. Garthic can explain later. He literally said ' wait, garthic will explain' yet im just reading tons of aggressive posts that jump the gun, and again with the speculation. Anyways, im done here, peace out, have fun.

Except mods don't do that, from my experience.

I'm going to say something, but even if you give company/business money it doesn't give you the right to treat people in a manner that you wouldn't wish to be treated yourself. The idea that people believe that they can is the same entitlement that people believe that just because they buy coffee at a Starbucks that they can shout at the staff serving the coffee because they got your order wrong. There's a reason why a lot of places have rules where even if you're a customer and if you're rude to the staff you can and will be removed from their property. No, just because you pay money into something doesn't give you that right. Finally, the art staff are volunteers - they're not paid. None of the staff are, we're all volunteers. I get it, you want transparency, but there's a lot going on behind the scenes. A lot that hiring another person to give 'updates' isn't going to achieve anything.

Because the overwhelming majority of them still buys ZC

Just woke up. This actually interested me so I decided I'd look in to the statistics because it was mentioned in the DevLog that statistics are quite interesting... So uh, here you go. If we look at all users, ever, and ask if they've ever had any interaction with ZC... then 92.7% haven't. If we narrow that down a little bit to 'people who have hatched at least 100 eggs' then we get to 70%. If we then change that to 'people who have hatched at least 1,000 eggs' then it swings in the other direction where 68% of people *have* had some kind of ZC interaction.

Any interaction at all :) If it made their account number go from 0 to 1, that's an interaction - same for 0 to 100, so on and so forth :p So I'm not talking about people making purchases - trading, being given a gift of ZC -- literally anything.
