Damn. I thought I was on the webflake fake forum and noticed it had grown immensely since my last view so it was weird to see this topic and see the original WF back. Wel-fucking-come back!

On the contrary, I think they've made it worse while washing their hands clean of it. Most, if not all, of the third-party developers don't verify licenses on their websites. They've effectively told these developers that they're on their own now. IPS likely felt like they weren't getting as much of a cut from marketplace sales anymore, so that's why they dropped it. I don't think it has anything to do with overhead on their site. That was such a ridiculous claim for them to make. They've spent so much time being worried about pirating that they don't even realize they're driving themselves over a cliff with current development. They're neutering the commerce aspects of their platform, such as removing the integrated support system, and really made a mess of their UI with IPS5; looks like an amalgamation of Discourse and other various platforms. It's really an eyesore.
