I totally respect that you make mods for the love of making mods and that is all good and fine. But even so, you deserve the respect and support whether you want it or not. And that is something the modders dont get.
Instead you get someone who thinks they're god, that comes in and rips your work apart after you've taken time and effort over it. I dont care how you cut the paper, that is out of order and it makes the modder feel like crap. And that is seen as acceptable on the forums.
For example:
Hunter is talking about SMIFF who pulled his KF Zombies mod down. It was seen to be acceptable that SMIFF was allowed to call Hunters mod Junk.
It goes beyond whether modders want the respect or not.
That post still stands today. It aint acceptable. Thats why I dont blame modders like Hunter leaving. Why should you all have to put up with that kind of disrespect.
It all then falls on TWI's shoulders. If they want people to continue to support their games and make mods for them, they need to shut people like SMIFF up, whether he's been here from day 1 or not, its not acceptable. People like him are whats driving modders away. Whether you want to admit it or not, that is plain fact.
Thank you and I am glad that you appreciate our/my work.
As far as the smiff thing goes, yes it was a very hurtful and underhanded thing to say but it seems, that everyone is ignoring every other post in that thread and just concentrating on one small minded person's opinion.
The thread is full of encouragement and praise for the mod but even if it wasn't, criticism isn't always a bad thing.
If one person can dissuade you from doing something that you enjoy doing by making one nasty comment, then I will say it again, don't do it in the first place as you must be doing it for the wrong reasons and it is inevitable that someone isn't going to like what you are doing.
