Quoted from punkin:All this time i could never figure out the point of coming on here and repetitively bleating about Haggis on here and asking for updates but not from the people who can provide them.
I finally figured it out, you guys like Flynnibus and Jeffspinball just want the superiority feeling of being able to say i told you so and walk around feeling taller.

That's really pathetic.
You've clearly not been around long in the pinball hobby. People care because a lot of people have been ripped off over the last 10+ years by companies like Zidware, Skit B, Heighway, Deeproot, etc. Usually, lack of communication and updates is the first sign of issues behind the scenes. I've seen it happen time and time again - and lack of communication is always the first sign. I think people who placed deposits have every right to ask for updates. I also think people who put money into an upstart pinball company with no track record also need to 100% be ready to lose their deposits. Companies that rip off the pinball community are bad for the hobby.
You personally don't need an update, fine. Why you are so annoyed that others want an update is beyond me - don't see the big deal. As someone who doesn't have skin in the game, but doesn't want to see people get screwed again, I am curious for an update too.
I followed Haggis on YouTube for quite a while, and enjoyed watching their progress. Damien seemed to take pride in the communication and visibility. I hope for the best here, and hope everyone who put money into this gets their games!
