rjbuffchix: I see your usual "friends" are up to making you low-rated again. Have another upvote of mine.
And uprated you as well(as they sometimes low rate those who chastise them and/or uprate me....or even those who reply to me).
As for why some stuff gets hit and not other stuff I post.....I think they likely have a bot hitting posts in order of posting or some such(and when it hits the max 5 down rep it stops)....at least that's my guess.
rjbuffchix: The part about GOG usually not putting a game on sale before delisting is useful information to people who don't know.
If GOG had an editable list of good info to know i'd add to it if and when I could...sadly I can only post to these threads.
rjbuffchix: It seems obvious to me too that it is something to do with the rights holder since you'd think GOG would be looking to make whatever they could on the game, if it was up to GOG.
I am guessing they almost only or only put stuff on sale when ip holders allow...even if something is going to be delisted(it goes hand in hand with my theory that GOG might not be very "strong" at the negotiating table with a good number of partners and has to give more favorable terms to some of them than what steam/epic/etc might have to).
