Developer Maxi Posted November 8, 2013 Developer Posted November 8, 2013 Dear community, Over the past few days we have been targeted by a group of angry people. They are angry for many reasons, some of which have solid ground but they have taken it too far. They created a new community and a competitor bot, which is good. Competition keeps everyone sharp and we did never mind about competitors as long as they did not attack us directly, for example by creating a lot of spam on the forums with inappropriate content. Their community and bot is called Osbot FTW. Master Chief has, without communication, become an administrator on their community. Therefore he has been demoted and it's a decision I didn't like to make but had to. His place will hopefully be filled by a great staff member. One more shoutout to you I want to make and perhaps to Osbot FTW as well is that I'm really surprised by their behaviour. I don't see how being hostile towards another community to begin with is a good start. But maybe I'm not the one to judge. I do understand people have their discontent which the development team is to blame for. On the other hand, we can make up for this and we will certainly do so. If you have no commitments, you have the freedom to chose where to be. Be in one place, two places or more. But if you work with Apple, you can't work with Microsoft at the same time. Thanks for reading, OSBot.org 7
Swizzbeat Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) Fuck yes, will fail and in a few weeks everyones going to come back over. Without OSBot no one would have even heard of them, and I don't think they realize how hard it is it actually run a successful bot client with all the competition out. Their way over their heads. OSBot ftw Edited November 9, 2013 by Maldesto 1
Levi Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Thank you for notifying the community, hopefully by releasing this statement alot of confusion is cleared.
ScorpioZ Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 I don't think we're angry, more displeased in that you guys have repeatedly shown a disinclination for caring about us. 4

I have * as well, there is nothing wrong with being apart of another bot/forum. 2
zScripz Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Very graceful handling of this situation Maxi. Unfortunately, I can't say the same of excobot. Hopefully they will come to realize that this is no way to run a business.
