You call it a cleansing.

I call it removing spam posts that add zero new info to the discussions and only serve to fan the flames of conspiracies. They would have been dammed if they had let this fester.

Spreadsheet imports are tricky. You really need to trust the process as it can be tricky to verify if the numbers you get are realistic. In an ideal world they should have caught it, but so could the 3rd party hired to do the job.

You can’t protect against faulty data like the wrong box size for one of the items.

Well. You could by limiting what items folk could pick, but both backers and the company got greedy by wanting all of the goodies and trying to please the fans.

Things got discovered and they appear to be making a serious effort in fixing the mistakes.

We all need to realise that the process is done by humans who can and will make mistakes. Especially with a project of this size (one of the biggest kickstarter ever). They might have the resources and fanbase to create the goods, but I’d say that their internal processes aren’t ready for things of this magnitude.
