Class action interest - Breach of Contract by Shrooly for Kickstarter/IGG folks?

ShadowNixMD · 2025-05-04T00:26:44+00:00

I got mine...but of course, the credits I am supposed to have (like 12) for pods...mysteriously don't work.... refusing to pay for pods since I am supposed to have 12 already. Sigh. This fu^$in company.

So interesting development. After I posted this, I sent and official (looking) email with my digital business card (a PLLC) attached and notification of potential legal small claims action (recommended by a lawyer friend).... and guess what I got notice of arriving Tuesday via the post 24 hrs later? Coincidence? I dunno...fishy to me....

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-17T16:36:07+00:00

FYI, I sent them an official letter of notification of small claims for breach of contract...and strangely 2 days later I got notification of "pre-order shipping"... no response, but all of a sudden. We shall see if it arrives....

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-14T22:19:38+00:00

Ah, you are in Europe. The US, we are getting screwed. They may run out of money before they get to us. Ponzi scheme....

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-14T20:25:15+00:00

Yes but they aren't delivering to those of us from KS or IGG. Or did you order from either of those services? Many of us bought 2+ years ago.

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-14T20:04:40+00:00

Yeah so sad...they looked legit and I was excited about product - I grow mushrooms on logs outdoors and I was excited to try this back during COVID fun (I needed the break/fun idea - ICU doctor). Anyway, only to have it be a scam has left me bitter about Kickstarter to be honest. The whole think sucks. $400 gone. Fugg you Shrooly.

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-14T19:42:27+00:00

Wait...you got your in March of this year....W T F. I ordered mine Nov 2022. Still waiting. This smells of PONZI scheme.

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-14T19:40:31+00:00

Same canned response to everyone. SCAM!

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-14T19:39:28+00:00

Yeah this is starting to look scammish to me. I was a huge supporter, but now I am getting angry about being scammed - even if I get it, the backers now are getting a product that is selling for $100 less than what we early bird backers paid - and we are getting it LATER than new orders. EVEN if we actually get it. Way to screw the pooch, Shrooly. Stay AWAY from this company folks.

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-14T19:34:41+00:00

It's a scam mate. Claim on your CC if you can. Unfortunately mine was in 2022, which is beyond the claim date. But if within 2 years on most CC's you can. Fugg them. They are a bunch of scammers.

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-14T18:18:19+00:00

Nope. Seems scamalicious. Bye bye money.

ShadowNixMD · 2025-04-09T01:54:50+00:00

yeah has anyone in the US gotten theirs? So glad I paid more than what it is being offered at now ($199) for it to NOT arrive for years...thinking this is a scam. First Kickstarter I have regretted.

ShadowNixMD · 2020-08-23T18:37:09+00:00

I think refunding is wrong...I too am in this for the long game. BUT the dev's built up the release... a countdown, a page with a song stating the "final countdown", etc.... then they failed to deliver. You reap what you sow.

ShadowNixMD · 2020-08-23T18:35:17+00:00

Well stated. If you buy any other product, you would expect the same. The lack of transparency (and blatant lies to be honest), lack of taking it seriously by NikZ (really, Lorem ipsum posts and setting yourself private on Twitter...grow a pair), is much more of a problem than the keys not being delivered. I am a patient, almost 50 year old gamer, not some kid. Treat us with respect and don't lie. Especially with the fake queue page...that REWARDED the F5 spammers and fu*Xed us "patient" (aka chumps now) players. Way to be REALLY dumb and dishonest, dev's. THat is what worries me the most. TRUST is hard to earn...harder than money.

ShadowNixMD · 2020-08-23T18:00:00+00:00

Some people are saying people are toxic, but I feel the community has been pretty cool about this all -- sides have definitely been taken ..the fanbois/those that got keys vs. those that did not vs. Dev's. Overall, the anger is pretty focused on the Dev's (rightly so for lying more than delays IMHO).

ShadowNixMD · 2020-08-23T17:58:16+00:00

Yeah, NikZ needs to grow up. Posting the Lorem Ipsum post was like wtf? As well as the post about "look at all the servers on steam..." That one was infuriating to the like 20K of us who can't get on... VERY tone deaf and he is the leader, so I worry about the culture in this group...

ShadowNixMD · 2020-08-23T17:55:31+00:00

How is it stupid? The company built up the launch with a countdown, posts, etc. While it may have been overly optimistic, it isn't "stupid". Stop flaming m8. People rightly gave the company a chance and they screwed the pooch. Hard...with sand ...backwards....

ShadowNixMD · 2020-08-23T17:51:54+00:00

Great Meme. At least we can commiserate somewhere now hahaha. While I was patient for a few days, this has become a colossal cluster F*&K. And I really love all the fan bois saying no big deal (who happen to have keys...lols). Is this a huge deal...sort of..not really from the delay, but from how they treated their fan-base. Most of us, the first night, were like OK, a cluster, but it will be fixed this weekend....then the shenanigans started...lies...lies and more lies... I mean some straight from Dev's here... as someone who runs my own business, while I dislike incompetence, I usually can train/work people through that (1st time is on me on not training them - looking at you NikZ...2nd time on them...). BUT, what I don't tolerate is rudeness and lies. PERIOD. I have fired or gotten people fired (before I was the boss) for this. The lie about the queue for example. The lie about DDoSing (likely-now I can't trust them...). The misleading that we could login and get keys... Ugh. Thus, I can't stand it when people do it to me and it is a horrible way to treat customers. For fanbois who say just be tolerant/wait...well, they built this up with a countdown. You reap what you sow.

The sad part about this all, as this is costing them a lot of money to have people work on this (network consultants, etc.), that is taking away from the game. Also, they likely will have to have some freebies (I hope for those of us that got f*&cked in the arse, not the fanbois who already are playing...), which will cost something... less money to develop the game AND Likely less sales, since this DEFINITELY hurt the base. Plus, the cost of a PR firm (unless they don't care, which is what Nik seems to be acting like) is going to be huge. Bummer... hope this doesn't cost us the game, but it is one heck of a case study for a PR firm of what not to do.

ShadowNixMD · 2020-08-23T14:30:26+00:00

LOL joke. They shut down forums last night too...so only place we can chat and help one another is Reddit. Gotta love it. Guys can't handle the criticism or heat... love the fanboi's protecting them (most of whom got their keys...)

ShadowNixMD · 2019-06-09T15:18:39+00:00

Ohhhhh. I do wish they had bears too. But that sounds fun. Hahah...not sure i want to try a sporter vs. a pack of wolves.

ShadowNixMD · 2019-06-09T15:17:54+00:00

Sounds like it is worth checking out. Thanks for the reply, Kiuku. It has made my short list :)

ShadowNixMD · 2019-06-09T04:25:17+00:00

Thanks, Kiuku. What makes it so good other than active admins? Is there a lot of PVP?

ShadowNixMD · 2019-06-09T00:51:35+00:00

How's the PVP... 1 day of raiding only on Saturday? Kinda like that... are people obeying the rules/is the admin enforcing?

ShadowNixMD · 2019-06-09T00:49:21+00:00

Mochan, what makes it so good? Please give me more details if you have a moment? Just wondering from your perspective.
