Deleting posts & breaching rules

July 30, 201312 yr

Dear devs, please could you explain WHY you decided to delete posts from the following thread.

Yes, some of the comments were out of order, but most were quite valid points. The competition rules were as followed;

1. Story's size should be from 1000 characters up to 4000 characters

2. Genre in which stories should be written is limited to the specific game setting - it is assumed that it will be a fantasy in all its forms.

3. You should tell us a story from the view of any game character: monster, miniboss or even quest NPC. You should tell the story about the day of that character, about its life and adventures!

4. You should create thread in special forum section

5. Restrictions. To participate you should have at least 15 messages on forum. 1 user – 1 entry.

Winning stories were breaching these rules and we still have no idea why they were accepted and even rewarded. Surely, stories not breaching this character limit should have won. Multiple people have had to cut down on their stories because of this, yet it seems they were wasting their time..

I would like an answer and i'd like one that addresses the issues and why, when pointing out that rules have been breached, people have been ignored and furthermore had their comments deleted. I have reasons in my mind why you have deleted the posts and i just hope that i'm wrong.
