I know that previously you have mentioned how two years of intense modding
have worn thin and worn out and I feel that is one thing. but to withdraw in
disgust that is another.
I as a modder am indebted to you as my primary teacher. (AEM,Uber,MBFL)
I as a player am indebted to you as one of the fulfillers of my dream.(River)
plus showing me my way around FF and photobucket and SS itself.
My naivte' doesnt seem to allow me to completely understand most of the
issues, I have remained under the impression that my mods as public domain
Freeware mods arent really owned by me. and that after release there
pretty much anybodies to go at. polite maybe to inform and ask the creator
but not illegal not to I think, and in that maybe im wrong I dont know but
I believe still, that even if I dont agree with where someone takes one of
my mods its still not anything I can do anything about. to my mind this
is the price of Free modding. and given the price of Fuel these days
I would like to preserve the Free part of Free modding. so I dont mind when someone takes the idea for auto evasive maneuvers and makes one of there own with deeper cuts and built in loops and properly painted buttons.
IMO the situations and the counter responses have a lot more to do with
egos and professional jealousy than they do with improving the mod communty , all sides.
I do mind when the landscape of the free environment is being altered for
the worse, I feel your withdrawal was somewhat inevitable under the circumstances but to reitterate your leaving in disgust is a bit of a
tragedy for the community at large.
I Feel that the recent trend of contentious withdrawals has up to this thread meant that subsim was losing talented modders.
I Feel that as of this thread subsim is starting to lose its virtues.
Regards BBW and thanks again for all
