now listen to me all of you ungratefull bastirds out their. thomas is one of the best game developers out their i do not want to loose him form the community and nore do most other people. i am not looking foward to the side scrowler because i was looking foward to the free d game.
i am thinking of leaving this community my self in support for thomas. if we loose him as a devoloper then we are loosing one of the best and honnist ones out their. he should just fuck the lot of you and create the game that he wants. if this polehad not have been done then you would not have gave a dam about the free d game. it is the better option and you all know it you are just griping because you are just thinking about your sad soft selfish selves well if thomas leaves the community i would not blame him but then again i am thinking of doing the same if he does in support for him. just be grateful for the games you get and i know you would all play it if it came out the reason you are griping is because you wern't getting what you wanted. he had a good idear and the trueth is you all like the idear you are just moning selfish people and if the griping does not immproove and we loose thomas i may be some one who goes. i am in complete support for thomas he is one of the nicest developers out their and i wish i was on his staff and i hope to god you guys do not put him off. he had so many good games in the pipe line like raceway and now it looks like we could loose all theese good games that thomas had plans for. take care that is all i have to say. ian. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Ward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <gamers@audyssey.org> Sent: Friday, March 21, 2008 9:54 PM Subject: [Audyssey] Side-scroller consessions. > Hello gamers, > In light of the several emails on and off list to me about my decision > to create a 3D FPS game verses a side-scroller I feel I have no choice > but to do as everyone asks.
