Hey guys, calm down. This is a misunderstanding, not an Internet jihad against Stardock/RYG/whoever.
Going completely insane on them like this is not helpful when simply pointing out why the page in question is wrong would be a lot more effective.
If you go over to their site, you'd see that their Admin, Kathleen, had already ruled judgement and she hasn't even got a copy of the game. Then they come here all high and mighty and authoritative.
It's all "reports from this and that and blah blah". I heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who heard it from someone who has the game. No facts. No evidence. NONE.
They didn't try the other communication channels to get to Brad. All they did was PM, yes a PM. And when he didn't reply, down came the hammer, guilty as charged, "We, RYG find the defendant, Stardock guilty of having DRM." It's like putting an innocent guy in jail without having all the facts and evidence. Seriously, at this point, I have no respect for the admins of that website.
I posted a single post just forwarding Brad's email address and I got accused of flaming. Can you believe it? I couldn't even bother justifying a reply.
Seriously, I have my copy of Demigod and I have multiplayer issues but I'm still defending Brad because it's a matter of principle. I still have a beef with Stardock, not because of DRM but because I can't play the game online in Pantheon/Skirmish.
