This page currently claims that KoL is still in open beta. This isn't true as Jick, and others, have claimed several times that the game left beta when Ascension rolled out. Change to page? -- NitraMo SA TT 01:55, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

  • Hmm, I just copied that part from http://www.kingdomofloathing.com/static.php?id=whatiskol. I did hear that is was no longer beta, but I didn't bother. Is the page just out of date or was Jick fibbing?--Dehstil (t|c) 19:52, 21 August 2006 (CDT)
    • I am pretty sure that that page is much out of date, I'll send a message to radiobugbear about it and hopefully we will have an answer after next radio show. -- NitraMo SA TT 12:43, 22 August 2006 (CDT)
      • Some people still consider it beta, but officially, beta ended with ascension. Officially unofficially, the game is in gamma. :) -Madalin

I'm inclined to agree that it should change ... since nobody has moved on this since around August, I'll take the initiative and tweak the text. --Harry Crimboween 22:19, 3 January 2007 (CST)

  • Last I checked, the "What Is KoL?" page still said it was open beta, so don't change it here. --Quietust (t|c) 22:39, 3 January 2007 (CST)
    • Okay, sorry, I figured that the statements of the developers and the consensus of the discussion page was sufficient. Guess not. If the real blocker is that the What is KoL? page doesn't agree (which, like most of the documentation, hasn't changed since 2004) then at least we've got that reason logged in the discussion now. --Harry Crimboween 22:58, 3 January 2007 (CST)
      • kmail from Jick: "Technically as long as we don't have an end game, we'll always be in beta, but more like beta phase _____, the blank being the number of the update we're on". So permanent beta it is. --Harry Crimboween 21:11, 4 January 2007 (CST)
