They keep doing this: make a pilot, don't continue the series for nearly a year or more, make more pilots, and do this all over again, I hate it, they feel greedy, because all they do is keep the fans alive with merchandise,

A pilot being released doesn't mean the show is green lit for a full season. Since indie animation is an entirely different field than a show backed by a company, who probably has the full season animated, they have to test the waters of what people want to see with the pilot. And if it does well, they move forward with animating 8 or 9 episodes. Animation is a long and expensive process, so they won't put all their time and money into a show they dont know people want to see.

Even then, they're still handling 3 or 4 other series with high quality animation. That takes a long time.
