Psycho,
From a business standpoint Richard made the correct decision. That's what this incident should be viewed as, a business decision. It may have taken place in the wrong location but in fact K had a problem with the product and Richard handled it.
As far as requesting changes, feedback, etc from designers and not receiving a response, I think it amazing that MM has provided such suport in the past the this is considered a fault. I have never received a response directly from a game designer on any question I have ever asked of any company. That Aaron would even bother answering shows the level of commitment MM has to their customers, good ones and bad ones.
So don't feel like K got special treatment, he got the treatment he was entitled to from a class company.

You seem like a guy who could make a few additions to the SE4 community. If you're still willing to keep playing the game, you should check out modding - many people get as much if not more enjoyment out of the modding aspect. Lots of tactics and strategies to develop there...

Anyways, I for one, welcome any and all SE4 players constructive criticism and knowledge...

Marty, I agree. And I also regret my utterance about the possible fake Messages from MM, this was misplaced and written in affective mood, I apology for that.

Again, I don't mind that I haven't got responses and I don't think my suggestions could be more important than others.

Let's go ahead and help to bring up Aaron's Baby (SE4) a step forward to Adolescence (SE5 ?). (Edit: don't misunderstand this sentence, please!)

Well thanks, I might check out one of the mods, but I am so good at strategy that it's unlikely they would give me enough of a challenge to bother still. I don't have the time or patience to try playing email but I am still hoping they might get TCP/IP in this game eventually. If so I will be happy to give a few of you a run for your money some weekend.<G>

In this forum you'll find a lot of strategy veterans, also some military veterans, not one of them would let his golden retriever drivel on his keyboard, ...but I guess they will conquer you in a few turns if you are not prepared... Mr. So-Good-At-Strategy , watch out. (Don't be angry about this name, I guess you will get your challenge, that's all I wanted to say with this.)
