Brian, too late!! There is nothing wrong with Bud's post. He made no obviously harsh statements that warranted your return post. I tend to think that the nicer you are on these lists the more criticism you get.
I think you were referring to Tyler's response, at least I am hoping you were. If you weren't, then my previous statement really holds true!! Most people on this list do not show half the respect to VALVe that Bud did.

We all get a little irked when updates go bad but keeping in mind I have nothing to do with Valve and even I felt a little insulted at your post. You know what they say, you catch more flies with honey. Just a little info and it is in no way meant to start an issue.
