Re: [1564] Important

"Noisy." "Your feelings..." "Are important." (t/n: Google Translate says "taisetsu nanda" means 'what is it?' but just 'taisetsu' translates to 'important' and it's not a question... ) If you don't mind my saying so, this is actually not entirely correct re - "taisetsu nanda." It's not that it woul...

Re: Comments concerning VN

Oh for pete's sake. Of course Fred payed his taxes. And of course some of the kickstarter money went to pay his living expenses. Fred has put more work in to the VN than anybody, and to do so he nearly stopped work for years on the comic and everything else that enabled him to pay to bills and feed...

Re: Comments concerning VN

Folks, Fred does get notified of comments on the Kickstarter page, but he does not typically monitor this forum, other than with a quick check or two of the current story discussion thread to see if people got what he was trying to get across in the latest comic. When he responds to Kickstarter com...

Re: I'm sure Fred is still working on this

Interesting how Fred has lots of time for Twitter, but seems incapable of speaking for himself. [snip]

Re: I'm sure Fred is still working on this

Because he already spent the money, right? For things that aren't the VN? That's why it IS a scam Any money that Fred (as project principal) distributed as salary -- either to himself (as artistic director), or to a programmer, or any other assistants -- is not an inappropriate use of those funds, ...

Re: I'm sure Fred is still working on this

Perhaps people would not be calling it a scam if Fred actually communicated with them. Fred. Not you, paarfi. He took money for a project that is years late, with no progress for more than a year, and people still have to request the refund. Why doesn't he just give people the refund without them ha...

Re: WHERE ARE THE REWARDS?! WHY DOESN'T FRED REPLY?!

He won't reply because he doesn't care.

if they care about anything, it'll be about me replying to a thread from April.

See, you have to follow the rules here, everything in its rightful place and time. But Fred doesn't have to follow his own rules that he got paid 300,000 dollars for.

I thought we were talking about a 49 year old man with legal obligations to make what he was backed to make, not a potty-shy three year old. You’re absolutely right. Instead of expressing our displ...

Re: Visual Novel [renamed]

You know what would really clear things up?

If Fred spoke for himself, and didn’t require a special time and auspicious portents and everything to be just right, to do so.

You know. Like everyone else does when they’ve pocketed 300k and have nothing to show for it.

Re: Visual Novel [renamed]

So correct me if I’m wrong but...

Fred prefers to work than to talk about work.

But he “can’t work on the VN for a while and likely won’t be able to for a while.”

So he prefers to work than talk... but he can’t work... and he won’t talk...

Do you seriously not see the problem with this?

Yeah except that you only have to step in because he won’t.

If “send” is inaccurate, how’s “require the intervention of”?

He ignores us, doesn’t work on the VN, draws fads and memes, sends paarfi to take his flak, because he’s hoping we will all forget, take the financial loss, and not mention it anymore, quietly happy that we could fund his life for a time. I wouldn't think he'd even stay anywhere near online, doing ...

This is not to pick on walkingeagle in particular, nor is this a new problem. The same kind of thing happened when comic production slowed years ago after Jack was born and Sarah started her long and difficult fight with cancer.

The man is also a businessman who has made 300k disappear. We did not donate that money.

Paarfi, it’s understood that it’s not your fault. If you have no updates - if there are no updates - that’s how that is, I can’t expect you to spawn some out of the void.

It's the one where she tells Piro she'll play a game with him if he gives her 300,000 dollars, then ghosts him after she gets it, but sends Ping to talk about how hard her life is instead of actual information and updates.

I'm going to second this. Estimated delivery on the game was 4.5 years ago. You can't just make 300,000 disappear like this, it's really messed up.
