RaineArii 1 Report post Posted March 18 (edited) Ubisoft has been astroturfing, paying for coverage across various websites and none of these articles here are flagged as sponsored - but there's tons of them, and it seems to be the only non-multiplayer game that has gotten this treatment. Are these sponsored articles or not, and why are they not filterable from the front page? Edited March 18 by RaineArii A word. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, we don't have any ETA on when that will go live. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are building out our SEO authority for expansion on "Other Games site". We have to grow as a business :) Simultaneously we are working on a re-design of Icy Veins that will have the option to filter by what YOU want to see. Our tech is getting old and unfortunately we can't do that yet, but hopefully we release it this year. I speak to the devs if we can move this to it's own section instead of the front page, but it's going to be a bit of time. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I much prefer I-V as my source of MMO news. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
