It seems a dispute between one of GameDP’s volunteer community managers has spilled out into the forums and in an actual press releases that was sent out today. When I first received the press release I wasn’t sure if it was a joke or if it was an actual release sent by GameDP, but it looks to be legit so allow me to summarize the dispute for you.
The dispute started when Rokkumon, one of GameDP’s most experienced volunteer Community Managers (CM) for Dragon’s Call, stepped down from his position for a two month span of time, then wanted to return. Below is some background about Rokkumon as was stated in the press release by GameDP.
Rokkumon was an old hardcore player of EverDream games. He has been doing the CM job for more than 2 years starting from Dragon’s Call, and now is the first CM in WarFlow. Many of the previous game events were held by him and he even wrote a few long unofficial backstories for Dragon’s Call. But recently, Rukkumon was ultimately pissed off by some reason, and turned his back on this game and the official.
Rokkumon claims he was promised to become the main CM for both Dragon’s Call and WarFlow, GameDP’s most recent game, but instead was “forcefully” removed from Dragon’s Call and put only on WarFlow. Rokkumon goes on to say WarFlow was a “near dead” game and putting your most experienced and active CM would be a waste of resources.
In the press release sent by GameDP’s, they stated that Rokkumon was “cursing the official and threatening to leave the position with anger”.
“Rokkumon was a pretty diligent and capable fellow. He did help us with pretty much work in the old Dragon’s Call servers. But it’s sad that he’s kind of losing faith and starts complaining a lot recently. “Adam Wu, Marketing Officer of EverDream Studio, explained, “Although I’m not suggesting him stay in the CM position at this stage, I do hope he could find a better way out.”
“He was active at first, but disappeared suddenly for nearly a week” Shelly, Chief Operating Officer of WarFlow project, said, “We cannot wait for him forever. We have to move on, there’s still much work needed to be done.“
A pretty lengthy post by Rokkumon was posted in the forums that was soon deleted by GameDP, however players took screenshots and re-posted the info which was also included in the press release. Very strange situation having a dispute with a volunteer community manager get so out of hand and to reach such levels. The forum post that was deleted can be found in full after the jump.
