RPGNow deleted my product without any explanation.
They later claimed it was some kind of error on Dominique's part but he had nothing to do with it. Even the explanation they gave was bullshit. They claimed that he used the wrong page to order a pdf, but that page didn't even have the pdf option.
So they made public a new space, which meant we lost our copper bestseller list, and our position on the Hottest Titles list. Which is utter bullshit.
After some gentle threatening, we got the copper badge back.
But I have almost zero doubt in my mind that this was a targeted attack by someone in RPGnow, to get me off the bestseller list.
Good Luck

Is there any practical difference between RPGNow and DriveThruRPG?
ReplyDeleteYes. They're both owned by the same company, but DriveThru is where the big guns (Wizards of the Coast, Paizo, steve jackson, etc) sell their stuff.
DeleteRPGNow is specifically designed for indie games. And that's where I was on the top-10 for all this time.
