    Probably could have handled this in a less 'table flipping' manner.
    - Could have just allowed the sharing of economic changes/advantages with all backers (as other have suggested). I was about to ask permission to do this.
    - Given the small population of players, allowing some players an temporary advantage will have NO long term impact on the game economy.

    That's more what I expected from Dev plus when the Kickstarter launched. A voice at the table that actually has Dev interaction.

    I have made many other posts and this one does deal with both because what I stated is the underlying problem. I payed more for Dev+ to have more better chance at contact with the Dev's. But what myself and many others have gotten is a what I get from my teenage kid. Every time this subject is bought up they just pretend they did not hear it. bandwith or not they are loosing people over subjects like this and their just plain ignoring many subjects from the very same people who made this game possible.

    The moment that they went persistant and allowed the selling of in game items for real cash this excuse ended. Every time they make changes they MUST consider what the result is.
    If we paid more for Dev+ then they need to listen to us a lot more. You can not use things as a selling point and take it away. The way they have solved this problem is the way they have solved many others. like smashing someones face in to get rid of a pimple.

    ^^This!

    and ^^This!!

    I find that I too have difficulty detaching my emotions gere. It's not the changes, It's the way it's being done.

    Edit:

    AMEN!... memories are long.. going forward I think a lot of people will look at things differently.

    SMH... this is an object lesson in how to grab defeat from the jaws of victory

    Let's all meet again after the release is done and the patches are out.
    We won't find any middle ground at the moment anyway.

    Will everyone get free COTO's too because like dev+ access they confer a temporary economic advantage that's 'not fair'?

    Locking the thread. Nothing positive, not constructive happening here.

    Like I said multiple times above I am very sorry.
