I believe yourself missing a few key points.

- Toonslab has officially owned Graalians for a while now, therefore not making it independent.

- Colin didn't seek out payment, and declined it when he was offered. That's hardly "selling your soul".

- It wasn't Colin's decision to give Graalians to Toonslab.

So does that mean you do take payments?

I don't know most of the people that frequent this place, but I know without a doubt in my mind that a not insignificant number older Graal players would've been willing to donate to keep this place independent. Was such a drive ever brought up, or did you go straight to selling your soul? Hell, if someone mentioned that to me two years ago out of the blue when Graal was the last thing on my mind I'd have thrown money at it out of petty spite, and I know I'm not alone.

Are you being serious right now? A donation drive? Imagine it from unixmad's perspective: a Graal forum with people throwing money at the owners. We already know how that would end and it would look worse for all parties involved. Last I checked you get banned for getting money in exchange for development on Graal, get real man.

also darlene's not that bad

Get out.  

Pojo joined Nov 2011 and has 5posts... yet says would donate money to keep forum running lmfao!!! Anyway whoever did own and sold would of never given to a random player.period.

Hape/Unix will most likely just branch this into the new stuff that'll eventually come (Playerworlds ios and Graal3D etc) -That's saying if he even does anything, maybe only reason he bought is to censor anything that can divert them to another game/new games also near release*cough* Certain games in particular*cough*  

I don't know what makes any of you think unixmad or anyone else isn't entitled to "censor" the free advertisement of another game on their forums? No diferent than a Twitch streamer banning discussions of other streamers in their chat, go set up a lemonade stand outside of Starbucks and see how you get treated, etc.

Where did I say he isn't entitled I'm just saying that may be one of reasons why as them games are the only ones being censored(and will get spoke about as co owned G) not stuff like gta or something else for example.

thank u for ur service  

Donation drive would have never worked. It may have worked for a few months than interest would die down, leaving them to scramble trying to find a way to keep the site open, or pestering members constantly for donations.  

My art thread  

The forum should be subscription based so all the broke-ass spammers can't join.
