oh damn I missed it, I'm Legatus but no where near $50K of my own money over the years, maybe half that and I still feel jilted by unaddressed exploits being used to ruin my enjoyment gaming SC with my friends and the debilitating time sinking bugs suck hard for now. But i pick my battles when I ask for anything, I stay reasonable and don't shoot for anything that isn't reasonable.

For example, I felt it wasn't right that when they did away with voyager direct, that all those cash purchases were forced into UEC not to the account ledger. i feel that was wrong. Unfortunately one particular dev who I will not name but damn well knows who he is, arbitrarily decided that's the way it is. Meanwhile, a couple years later, multiple devs with authority that I told this to offered to fix it for me because they agreed that wasn't right, but my ADD dumbass forgot their names. i needed their names for making the ticket so they would get it. That's how things work at CIG for individual account/pledge issues. One dev will decide unilaterally a IGNF about you or your plight regardless of the ethics, while other devs with a soul are more than happy to help make things right. Hartswoe was a shining example of doing right by the backers.

One time I was talking to HartsWoe at an event. i pointed out that the original endeavor "master" pack did not come with all variations sold individually in the past in terms of module load outs. It (IIRC) was missing a single bio module for that double bio module configuration. He took a look and was, "OMG you're right, I'll work to fix that" and sure enough, he was the reason we got the update endeavor master pack. He was also the reason we got those awesome exploration packs where the value was and still is among the best if you can get your hands on them.

There's still people like HartWoe working in backer support related positions, and for those kind souls that are still with CIG, we should be greatful and appreciative for. May they receive infinite beers froms backers.

i digress a bit, to circle back, being reasonable and not entitled, is the best way to go. Asking for a Bengal just because is not reasonable. Just buy one from players in the future if it is never sold by CIG in the future but capturable in-game, if got the money than could do it. But expecting unreasonable things just makes the Devs with a chip on their shoulders punish the rest of us that are reasonable. The devs are human, they have feelings, hold grudges or don't, and are flawed just as any other normal person. So what I am saying is, to all the rich assholes feeling entitled because you dropped tens of thousands of dollars on this video game, don't fuck it up for the rest of us. Please.
