So finally the anti-salem faction has succeeded - they have the devs back where they want them to be.
That`s how it worked:
1) Piss of new players by explaining them "...then Salem is no game for you" in the forums
2) Piss of new players by insulting them in forums
3) Piss of new ideas who could make Salem a game for a large number of players, so the devs could earn their money
4) Make sure Salem is going to be H&H with better graphics (just in case)
5) Kill all remaining new players which couldn`t learn the new game mechanics as fast as the H&H veterans or don`t have enough time to play on a competitive level. They are idiots anyway.
6) Sabotage any advertising live stream
7) Post a population tracker and use the declining number of players to kill the last remaining new ideas or the first sign of hope
8) Call devs idiots because no one plays their game
9) Happiness and Joy to everyone coming back to the good, old H&H - welcome back devs - we love you so much!
