Very few people here have the ability to reverse engineer the data files in the way that Fido did to get the result (even though a good portion of the file format was posted here by members of the board awhile ago). I don't know how many people here are hardcore programmers the way Fido was. Say what you will, the guy just flat out knew how to program and he was damn good at it (FAR better than me).

I would consider taking on the task, but I have too much on plate as far as "free time projects" go as it is.

Now if you want to write off those posters as acceptable losses and move onto how SD's style should be for the remainder of us, then I really think that's an issue that SD needs to determine for himself.

This is the post I was refering to, so not everybody that threatened to leave feel they need to say "it wasn't me." I never singled out any of those who left by name, and had no intention of saying they all "would only come back if Skydog left."

Ok GrantDawg, you're off the hook. And VPI has been planted there.

I don't think I saw anyone threaten to leave until SkyDog was removed. A change of style is the end result that everyone was looking for.
