I write IF, have played quite a bit of IF, and regularly beta-test up-and-coming games.
However, don't expect me to pull any punches if I don't care for your game. I will not.
Also, don't expect me to join your clique or accept the status quo because it is the status quo. Again, I will not.
Lastly, don't think that voting down my reviews, slandering me, or hating my games will shut me up, slow me down, or make me disappear.
I will be throwing flowers on your grave, because I will outlast you.
