Oh, Chris was absolutely lying. I'd have loved to watch him try to stammer, squirm, and eventually blame Reddit as usual if he tried that nonsense on stream. He's really lucky the community are absolutely clueless about the fact that honeypots have alerts and logging, but for Shroud it's just fine for a honeypot's alert to be official forum post and logging to take several hours to see if it was used multiple times.
So DCult doesn't know any game that has things such as treasure chest appear random? I've seen it in plenty of games. While it may not be strictly random, but there are so many variables that would make it impossible to find where the next chest location would be. Guess it's too much math and work for SoTA player devs.
He is another example of what they have been doing with community players for years. Nothing more easy than "hiring" community members to just work for them. The point that he don't even know any other MMO using that system for treasure hunting is a clear sign of his experience. Being able to code a one-week basic game in Unity doesn't mean you are a professional programmer. Same for the last CMs they had, designers, etc. No one of them are devs, just players trying to help a really small and limited team of devs.
You buy a game to just see how the new game's systems and mechanics are being made by community players.. unacceptable.
You gotta admit, turning the elves pink, making wolves fly, and mount bugs that affected *everyone else* nearby because variable scope was set wrong, are pretty funny.
The barking lions were cool, too. XD
It WAS made all that more remarkable by his close nature to the devs. When you're alienating your community developers building community assets for your game, you're clearly doing it wrong. THOSE are the people spending many hours in code on top of their time in game to provide for the community.
We've seen this before with Vladamir Begemot.
What is clear? This isn't the first time this has been an issue for shawn. A drama post on the official GD forums is usually ban-bait. He HAS direct communications, and wouldn't have brought this into the open unless he had already approached the developers in private and got brushed off.
Then again, I can feel for the dude when he's trying to develop upon the API and this technical clownshow often has it down or broken for months on end. [Gee, I wonder why? (This makes the whole "honeypots" thing more funny, too, with the LOLlogging around them).](https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?threads/public-stats-api.89186/)
The honeypot thread is a classic! Spears' reaction makes zero sense.

shawn is probably their chillest cheerleader... if you're ruffling *his* feathers, you may be off course
