It's only polite to keep the people who funded this game up to date.

Weird, the people who backed the star citizen kickstarter are up to date as well despite they didnt post an update on kickstarter since 2013
Keeping kickstarter backers up to date doesnt require using the kickstarter update system

I rather agree with Jarl. Josh does need to finish the KS update. And he will, very soon.

I'm sorry for the response you got to your question. It was a fair one.
I don't think this is the dark times again, specifically because Josh has been making his Dev Logs generally every 9 to 10 days. So he hasn't gone radio silent.
I do agree he needs to do a kickstarter update. Lot's of good stuff has happened in the last few months!

Josh has said he'll be doing the Kickstarter update at the end of the month instead of in the middle. There will still be a Kickstarter update - it just won't happen until next week.

He should post a quick Kickstarter update stating this, to keep the KS Folks happy.

He posted a Kickstarter comment saying it. Close enough.

Maintaining two different update channels seem like a waste of resources and time. Why not just copy the devlogs to the KS?

That's (mostlly) what we do. I compile the devlogs into a short, meaningful summary of about 1000 words in length, and then Josh adds a bit to it/edits as he likes and posts it. It works rather well, but this time he would like to get it at the start of a month, rather than somewhere in the middle. He's trying to get closer to a meaningful schedule.

@david
It's nice to be reminded that there are other ways to approach a situation sometimes. My question is a known hot topic around these parts. I expected some degree of inflammatory response, but I appreciate the result.
It *is* still somewhat concerning that the pattern of good behavior we'd seen up until May has fallen off a bit. A little slip is okay, but like the fan belt on an old car, too many little slips can be a big problem fast. (Josh's presence seems to still be here, but the official updates that were being posted for a few months dropped off Kickstarter -- which is a change. Not the worst change, but still a change and not for the better.)
Cheers all.

Um, Talvieno stated that Josh was going to wait till the end of the month before posting the summary. I don't see what the problem, if there is one, is.
