Let's start an 'IGS Community' group on Desura

I totally support this request/proposal!

And Desura archived the SPAZ article. I'm not understanding why, it's in exactly the same format as the previous five articles, all of which were publicly featured. Sigh.

Edit: Maybe it's because there's no Desura keys in this feature. That would make sense, actually.

Desura/IndieDB/ModDB has got to be the least user-friendly platform out there right now. Now the latest article is only showing up on our IndieDB profile and for some reason isn't getting pushed to the Desura profile. It usually pushes from Desura to IndieDB, so I have no idea what's going on. I guess I'll just link it in the comments on the Desura profile, my profound apologies to the devs of The Trouble With Robots

So I heard back from someone at Desura.

Hey there we normally try to focus on development news for the homepage of our sites as that is what our audience comes here for. The automatic filter was not tripped for showing on Desura so I have done it automatically. I have also approved it for you but please understand it is not really a site to advertise sales and other things like that. I will make an exception this time for you.

So it looks like they haven't been approving our articles because they're not related to development. It's strange that some of them have been approved though, in the past.

EDIT:
Just heard from them again after asking about that.

It depends on the articles that show up in the day, if there is space we will accept articles like your own, however if there is a need to show others we will.

So it basically sounds like there's going to be zero consistency. Nice.
