I take all comments on board though especially bad ones, I will look at things from a more neutral perspective in future (I did try to with this article it's why i didn't say the SMB was anyones sole fault) and not comment so much if someone bad mouths Linux that way I can try to not upset anyone.

Anyway back to normal hihohiho off to find news I go...

So an article is a disgrace for calling out a Game Developer for harsh statements on Linux for them to then have their games on Linux? Sorry but I feel there was a need for this to be pointed out but you are free to disagree such is the way of the internet. People should not support or applaud someone who makes such comments about open source and Linux....to then join in and support it by having their games on it.

Also this was not about removing blame from Canonical at all, if you think they are 100% to blame for this you are disillusioned sorry to say but it's true. Ed said in his own words he know about it a while ago and did nothing about the game being on USC.

i brushed it aside a few months ago when we found out

Yes it's really all Canonical's fault isn't it! Considering he also stated HIB are the ones that send the builds to Ubuntu but they should get no blame? Right...

It is not an "attack" on his (Tommy's) character at all, ALL I have done is quote his words word for word on what he has said, point me to where I have made something up to attack him with?

Oh as for "ad hominem" looking up the definition "Attacking an opponent's motives or character rather than the policy or position they maintain", Tommy's position was perfectly clear - he gave Linux the finger...or where my direct quotes from him made up?

GOL is my personal website, Editorials are my opinion so of course it will have all of my emotions in them when someone attacks Linux and then puts his games on it to reap rewards from us. Maybe I should rename "Editorials" to "My Opinion" to be clearer...or just stay away from anything other than new games and updates?

Post edited a few times to get my message across clearer.

Quoting: "Bumadar, post: 7261, member: 93"Liam, your sort of doing 2 things in this post which you should not mix imho.

1 USC sold a game it was not allowed
2 Tommy does not like Linux and what it stands for but hib converted the game

those are separate issues, the 1st is simply wrong by USC and it does not mater if it happen to a pro or non-pro linux person, the 2nd is 1 persons opinion about Linux and the fact that to get onto hib he forgot all those things :)

Yeah it could have been split but since it's all based around a similar thing i thought it was worth putting it together. Will look at splitting the article itself to indicate the separate issues though :)

Edit > Added headings :)

Article Updated to include links to show info about Steel Storm developer being unhappy with Humble. Also updated to include a note under second heading that it's not directly related to the first one. In future I will just split articles.

Also note Team Meat aren't pricks since it's two people, Tommy the programmer is the one stated making the horrible Linux comments, according to cheeseness Edmund is actually alright.

Its fully managed private server hosting (not shared hosting) with cpanel, if someone can find cheaper elsewhere I would love to see it for what I get including free 5gb daily data backup.

Its sad but there isn't any cheaper.

In comparison omgubuntu pays over $600 a month for theirs.

Awesome thank you, please do keep spreading the word :D

If someone could reddit it as well I would appreciate it I don't want to put too much on reddit.

Thank you for the kind words!

If we even hit enough to cover a few months it all helps and I am grateful to all who do pledge their support.

Thank you it all helps! Indiegogo offer flexible funding which we are using so we get all funds even if we don't hit the final goal. It's why I dislike Kickstarter since even if they are £1 off their final goal they don't get a penny.

This website is for this month averaging to hit 40,000 unique visitors so I would say it is reachable if enough people share it on their favourite websites and networks :)

Heh I have the same offer sitting in my inbox at the moment!

The new site originally planned for end of the month but been so busy with holiday preparations its not quite as good as I want it to be so in putting a target for end of January but hopefully sooner.

Got to put in article and forum post reply subscription amongst other things like "share this article to twitter, fb etc" and other minor issues.
