If you've been here over the years, it's not very unreasonable of people to question Kaj's dignity and ethos

yeah this site's stagnated 
not too drastically though for Kaj to bother

its kind of ridicilous that he claims that   all vp income is going directly back into vp because i cannot imagine a server like this being more than 774€ (on this server alone and on a relatively meager outcome credit week) 

wheres the other money going? into an app thats never getting released and that nobody wants? just make this website mobile friendly     
it's going into his pocket so the shitty webdesigners he doesn't pay can fuck everything up while he's on holiday

really dont understand why major designers dont get a stipend

or why not a single thing has changed about this site in the almost 4 years ive been playing except the layout

like. no events??? nothing??? its bonkers that this site is still functioning. if lioden, neopets, flightrising, etc didnt do events they would go under immediately. but somehow vp is still up 

really makes you think about where the money is going.............

It's a business, he's not entitled to give us explanations about his spending? I mean, the question shouldn't even be asked from him, he can make as many profits as he wants, as it is his project and not ours. We can make suggestions, but we're only the users here not his business partners. And frankly, the lack of respect he gets all the time wouldn't motivate anyone to improve the game...

As for the designer issue, as I can see, designers are volunteers, just like the other 'staff' working here. It's a common thing to recruit volunteers for online games and usually, they get game money and/ or items in exchange, which I think is the case here too? The thing is that, if you volunteered to help, you shouldn't ask to be paid, since you were not forced to help and you accepted the conditions. He most likely feels Solovey's style the closest to what he wants VP to be associated with, hence the employment of her. It's a mere personal preference and the others shouldn't be offended, because of it. You all do a wonderful job and I'm amazed by that you make it for free, but you have to accept that he never asked you to do so, it's just an opportunity for everyone who is not hired by him to help the game grow. If you feel it gives you only negative feelings you should probably quit supporting him. 
diana what the fuck 
I think many of you been here for such a long time you're obsessed with blaming Kaj. I'm not saying what he is doing is perfect, but we gotta accept that it is his business. This is how he planned the site and it is how he is running it. Again, I'm not against suggestions, but I see absolutely no respect towards him from the community, which is sad, since he must've made something good, after all we joined the site and stayed?  
it's not an obsession with blaming kaj. it's that this man is running a site that is only alive because of the work of designers, who get nothing in return. all the profit he makes on this site comes from designers, and only solovey is paid for it. that's messed up. i don't care how you run a site, even the crappiest of sites still pay their content creators! because that's what you're supposed to do!

we don't 'gotta accept' anything. we are the userbase, and we deserve to be catered to when it is our money that is keeping the site afloat. it would take a minimal amount of funds to buy new features from the (several) coders that have been part of vp. 

it has nothing to do with personal style, or preference for the aesthetic he wants for this site. he wants to keep his costs minimal, and he knows solovey is one of the most popular designers so he only pays her. it is about profit, plain and simple.

why does he deserve respect? what has he done that deserves respect? chatting up underage users? scamming people? refusing to implement any changes, and attacking the en server (and recently abandoning it) when we try to give suggestions of what could be changed?

i love vp, but this attitude that we have to accept how poorly the site is managed is messed up. it's messed up for the designers who put in HOURS of work, it's messed up to the users who spend money, it's messed up for all of us who keep this site alive but get no new content.
