Okay, here is my take on in-game clothing. We have enough. There are more than 36,000 articles of clothing in this game. My opinion is that the game would be better served with the dev's attention elsewhere. Please don't make anymore cloth...

What drama? From what I've heard, Recursion's almost as much a ghost town as Vector. Which is sad, since it's not hostile. And Phar is right (holy *poop*, Phar made poast?!), it's not like they would shut down the game at this point just f...
