    Its now at the point the backer only forum is kinds pointless. Nothing special or sneak peeks are shown anymore. Nobody posts on here either. Anyone else not bother checking this category?

    There is a forum at every level of backing. One for alpha level, One for backers in general, and One for public nonbackers. Matter of fact, the alpha forums will probably turn into the beta forums once beta arrives.

    So, that is that.

    EDIT: Also, this forum will stay exactly the same, releasing dev info to non-players who are queued to get the game at their backer level. Except, instead of alpha players begging for alpha like it has been for 2 months, it will be beta players getting videos and beta players begging for beta. Then the Alpha forums for reporting bugs will be the beta forums. Then this forum will release videos to people who preordered official release, and people waiting for official release will be begging for that. This is the function of the forum.

    Don't assume that since the alpha is live, you won't see anything here. We've just been very busy getting the alpha ready.

    Yeah, this is absolutely beautiful. I'm glad they've focused their efforts on the game instead of catering to the community.

    Does this mean when I get my key I'll have to keep posts from the alpha forum secret like the backer forum?

    The alpha forum is little more than a list of bug at the moment.

    I don't have alpha yet, and hate to be paranoid...

    ...but the Backer's forum, when asked on the General Discussion forum, is said to be little more than already know information. Most of that is true, but the LITTLE MORE part is significant there in my opinion, so I want to know all the amazing things about megabots and stuff garat is polling about in the alpha forum. Is that such a crime? I bet alpha forum already has a "who all has alpha? post here and brag and crap" thread, and some thread of information a dev posted just for alpha forums.
