Vaporware is something that never gets released to the public.

A scam is when someone takes your money under fraudulent pretenses.

What about this thread of ships that people paid for that still aren't available in game?

Some of them have been waiting for TWELVE YEARS

That's fucking vaporware, and a fucking scam.

Haters going to hate and there is a lot to hate about SC. Dont waste your time arguing with a wall that's made up its mind without ever even playing the game.
