The reality is different now, but please do not put us into the position to compete with the mods. It was never our intention.

Time is always an issue in everything but not because of your reason who gets "there" first.
I wouldn't nessesarily call modding Il2 disrespectful to Oleg, because everyone creating mods acknowledges that their work is merely building on what Oleg has already done.

Even Oleg himself has acknowledged that some of the Mods do thing he would have liked to do but did not have the time to do before Maddox Games discontinued support for Il2.
