So what do you really want Bearcat?
Do you just want to advertise people, because you once were against these mods and are now enthusiastic all over?
Or do you want a general amnesty for the modders, so they can post and advertise their mods freely? Then look at this thread and that it was not locked, though there were even direct attacks against 1C and MG, because modders fixed things that they couldn't and even you mentioned this, no matter that you tried to make it look more friendly then some others, probably out of some rest of remaining respect?
Or do you want Oleg to officially accept and support the crack?
Don't get me wrong. As I posted a lot of times before, I really have respect for a lot of hard work put into this, but it is your message, that I can't take. Just because some people put a lot of effort in something to achieve things that you expected from official sides for years doesn't change the fact that it is all based upon an illegal crack and that a lot of people fell offended and irritated by these discussions.
If the MonaLisa was stolen from the Louvre, repainted in 3 years work, her fainted smile turned into a real one, her breasts upgraded and hair styled, reworked with modern techniques and published officially for free, would you think that's a good idea either, just because there was so much work put into it and it's now available for free?
Superficial equation, I know, but true in 2 things:
1. Something based on a bad thing isn't good because a lot of good people worked on it and some people like it.
2. The only sense this whole thread has is to keep this worn out topic on top of the list, but what you don't see is, that it damages your intentions a lot more than it could have ever helped to put this on THIS forums.
