State of the Game:
Broken Mobile (A discussion of the state of Godus on mobile.)
Whats the diffrence between the mobile version and PC version? (Details provided by 22cans as of 13 May 15 of how the PC version is "different" from the mobile version.)
State of Development:
Overview of development so far.(A timeline of major events.)
Collecting lies, promises, unanswered questions, misleading (A historical collection of the...questionable claims attributed to Godus and its development.)
(ir)relevant tweets (Shows a collection of tweets of general interest around the game and discussion of them.)
State of the Developer (and Individual Developers):
Anomalies at Companies House (A collection of details around the operation, financial, and recent employee departures from 22cans.)
Ex-22cans Staff - Where Are They Now? (A list of where ex-22cans Staff are at as of 21 May 15.)
Moo's six month annoversary (A thread discussing the Community's feelings, diverse as they are, about how development has been going on and the sharing many opinions about what communication felt like back when he was being forthright with the community.)
Jack Attridge has left 22 Cans (A thread discussing Jack leaving 22cans to create Flavourworks.)
Fabs explains his leaving (A thread discussing Fabs leaving 22cans to join up with nDreams with a link to his blogged reasons.)
Now Pavle is leaving to. (A thread discussing Pavle leaving 22cans to join up with Jack Atridge's Flavourworks.)
Public Relations & Community Management:
Goodwill meter (A poll of how people feel towards 22cans at the current time.)
How to NOT PR. (A collection of the questionable communication between 22cans and the community in recent times - probably should be indexed into the OP at some point.)
Disagreeing = Oppression (A discussion and address to the policy of obvious and absurdly-biased moderation standards by 22cans...a policy that is still clearly in effect upon the Steam forums today.)
Your Top 3 Requests for GODUS on PC (A discussion started by a former CM to gather information about what features Early Access participants would like to see - the censorship in which prompted me to start archiving the forum, beginning with a copy of how this thread currently reads.)
steam/ 22 cons moderation (A collection of the recent moderation troubles as experienced upon the Steam forums - the major digital outlet for the game.)
Why do you think nobody plays GODUS anymore? (A thread discussing how the already average play numbers went down into almost nothing for a supposed spiritual heir of Populous. This thread also has example of 22cans' deletion policy of deleting a post that was otherwise fine according to the real Steam rules, but since they said bad things about the game the user had to be antagonised, defamed, and flamebaited by a 22cans moderator.)
22cans & Kickstarter and Off Topic sub forums. (On 10 Mar 15, 22cans tries to avoid discussion about the failed Kickstarter, the abuses towards the community, and the problems with the game's development on the Godus General Discussion forum, so creates sub-forums and shunts most of it into the Off Topic sub-forum, a forum that more commonly is reserved for completely irrelevant topics to the game. Most of the 22cans and Kickstarter discussions have since been more accurately categorised.)
Godus Suggestion Archive of 13thGeneral (An archive of suggestions as compiled by 13thGeneral, mostly detailing his own but the document includes links to several more suggestion threads and community feedback for Godus.)
Company Policy:
Godus Refunds: Kickstarter / Steam Early Access (A discussion about 22cans' policy about refunds, even though refunding the Kickstarter backers would easily absolve any contractual obligation - and potentially any "error" made in the production of the game - to those backers.)
A Friendly reminder of the Steam rules. (A link to the FAKE "Steam rules" that 22cans will cite to abuse customers with, somehow not comprehending the humour of posting and enforcing upon "unwritten rules" or that the outdated guide indicates that both Aynen and Muir are Steam Community Moderators.)
Rules & Tips for Steam Community: Contributing Positivity and Avoiding Bans (The actual advice guide 22cans uses to enforce a far stricter set of rules and "punishments" than Steamworks advises.)
Rules and Guidelines For Steam: Discussions, Reviews, and User Generated Content (For reference, the REAL rules.)
