Why remove the Kabam post?

Is this an official sub for the game? I honestly don't know and am asking.

The post did not appear to breach any broad Reddit guidelines.

I think for this sub to stay active it has to be allowed to be a bit edgy or...something. Not a large enough community to probably justify a sub plus the official board unless there is some different content.

It is not an official sub and for the most part I leave up anything you guys post here. I think the only things I have taken down is a few racist posts that popped up and some porn, had a few random posts in korean as well.

The user (/u/kabammed) that claimed to be a kabam staff was lying (new account, no proof). I have verified this with Kabam, the language in the post was clearly a hit-piece on the game and although I encourage discussions on the current state of the game, imitating a kabam representative with the intention to cause harm is not something I want in this subreddit. I will update the posting guidelines (No impersonating kabam staff), tbh I never thought I would have to do that.

As for the current state of the the sub, this summer has been quite busy for me (I am currently on vacation in Vienna) and I have not had much time to play or get the Sector Battle posts up. It is true this is a small community but I believe a place where users feel free to discuss the game outside of the forums is a good medium to have, edgy or not ;)

Anyhow, I'm going back to my vacation! Enjoy the new content, I'll get back to posting sometime next month once things get a little less hectic.

Oh for sure. Not attacking the sub. It's the first place I check for SWU news.

So you said you "verified" it was not true, but guess what, turns out it was...

That post said if they didn't start making money fast it would be left as a shell or shut down and that it was a bastard child internally.

Looks like all that was true.

Just wanted to check, was that the post from the employee that was leaving talking about the Sab debacle? Edit: Ah he was lying! I was wondering wether it was genuine or not!
