discussion Active member - A Dev perspective

[Hermione]

Since I have to make 10 posts for the new site guidelines, I take this opportunity to congratulate the developer of Burned.
One of the best games out there. Interesting and funny story, and beautiful and unique characters. I can't wait for the new chapters.
I liked Malignat less. I don't like "dark paths".
I understand everyone's frustration, and it is mine too. I don't even know if I'll be able to make 10 posts. I don't really feel like writing, and it would feel like spamming doing it on purpose. But it is also true that something had to be done. I don't know if it will work, but we'll see.

P.S. English is not my native language. I understand it, but I have some difficult to write correctly.

Not sure what would be the good way to do this that would work everyone, the other option would be put some kind of hidden mechanism that would hide even more these games.
I do agree that this will make harder for new people know about yours and others amazing works, I mean when someone new find LC by chance (without anyone else recommending), what will make them stay and try to get some rank?

 

[dude222]

From your standpoint as a dev I entirely understand the frustration. Thank you for all you do.

I want the anti-social perverts, the basement trolls, and undercover feds to enjoy them, too. I want the shame-filled fappers who never say anything because they’re too busy crying in the shower afterward.

Aww, you're too kind. Thanks for your work!

This anti-social pervert literally logged in today for the first time in a month or so just to check if you had released an update to Burned yet and found myself locked out of the thread. It's not even in my "watched threads" list anymore. Guess the 2 years I've had an account here as a lurker don't count for shit.

A pain in the rear-end really. The locked away games are the ones I want to see and for the non-locked ones I just go to the other site anyway.

lol yeah im not going to the local sex shop to foster life long connections

 

[fenix20]

Absolutely agree with topic starter

Exactly what I'm talking about

Hi, all.

I'm the deviant that makes Burned and Malignant, and I want to voice my displeasure at this new active member thing.

Lewd Corner has been a very reliable hub for my updates. It's actually the only hub I maintain. For months, I've been working away on V.3 of Burned and excitedly inching toward the day I can post it here for everyone to enjoy.

Except now, not everyone is going to be able to enjoy it.

Let’s be real: most people visiting this site and playing these games are trying to get off. They don’t have the time or inclination to post meaningful replies on a forum. When I’m not actively engaging with an update I just released, I use this site just like any other anti-social pervert, spending maybe five minutes on this site doing the following:

1. Clicking ‘Latest updates.’
2. Finding a game.
3. Downloading the game.
4. Closing LC and playing the game.

If I didn’t have Dev Status, I would not have the motivation to jump through the hoops to find the hidden section where my games are currently located. I love you all, but I simply don’t have the urge to spend 16 hours actively nitpicking the finer points of NTR with strangers. Hell, even with Dev status, I can't find the Burned and Mal pages without going through the notification button.

Foster an active community by all means, but please don't force it by restricting access to my games. I put an absurd amount of work into these projects—like ‘oh my god what the fuck am I doing with my life’ amount of time—and when I’m done, I present them exclusively on Lewd Corner.

Call me selfish, but I don’t just want the quality active users playing my games; I want the anti-social perverts, the basement trolls, and undercover feds to enjoy them, too. I want the shame-filled fappers who never say anything because they’re too busy crying in the shower afterward.

At the very least, can Admin remove the sinner status so I can be lumped in with the easy-to-access normie games? I’ll happily remove/censor any iffy screenshots. Hell, I’ll even pull some Fuck95 BS and create a taboo patch… that will probably end up being like 90% of the game, but whatever.

I totally agree with you, these obstacles are quite annoying, but unfortunately I don't think they will change it in the near future, I hope to be able to play your game again soon.

 

[doinkmins]

It's nice to see an active dev speak out. I think the restrictions are a little to heavy for the average user and just needs some adjustments (especially the active time)

 

[guego]

Good one. I take the opportunity to write up my first message here since I literally have no other threads to post in. If at least we had acess to a redacted thread so that we could post in we would actually have something to talk about instead of just posting random messages in the ether and hope not to offend any mod by accident...
Anyway I also took the time to like every messages in this thread since most people here are also posting for the first time and apparently it's necessary for getting trophies etc. I'm sure that's how that option was meant to be used.
I feel like I'm in a terrible RPG doing side quests to get to the main story.

Malignant is the main reason I'm here anyway

 

[Wolf's Pleasure]

Yea, I've been a long time Lurker. And this is just a Pain in the rear. I have a massive amount of time going through the threads and stuff. But I never post. This is probable the first time I think I've ever posted. And I wanna say my account is well over 1 year old If not two (Sorry, can't remember when I signed up lol)

 

[PinkCandy]

Nice to hear the perspective of a dev and I couldn't agree more. But sadly people are just gonna have to jump through those hoops set out currently.

 

[Photonm3]

I certainly agree with @Deaufosse here, but I also see the purpose of the gating. If it means continuing to have access to the Sinner content, I will jump through the hoops. Having access here is better than trying to find the content on the dark net.

 

[Photonm3]

And kudos to @Deaufosse on the quality of the content he provides! I'm not a big fan of Burned, but am really looking forward to the next update to Malignant! To each his own. Thank you for your great work, sir!

 

[Nairod]

Well said, I agree with everything you mentioned.

This.
This whole charade is only adding friction and worsening the experience for normal users while solving nothing. If a bad actor wants to fuck up this place they will find a way.
I certainly don't come here to make life-long relationships with other people like me. I just come here to get games and fuck off to the sunset after I'm done.

 

[FrankTheDuck]

Same here.

 

[beryl]

Same here.

Same. It surprises me sometimes how many people are here using the forums.
