I appreciate all the<br>supportive emails, and the kind words both on- and off- the<br>record. But in the end, all I want to do is make Dead Souls<br>the best LPC lib ever, and getting into a juvenile pissing match<br>is exactly the sort of thing that makes that difficult.<br><br>So, be aware of the fact that I want people to contribute to his<br>site, and I want LPU to be successful, because that is an<br>overall plus for Dead Souls. Please keep up the community<br>participation.<br><br>Whatever I've been doing lately to express my displeasure<br>with Tacitus has nothing to do with you guys, and I am not<br>interested in ganging up on anyone. Please just let me<br>be angry with Tacitus, and carry on with your business.<br><br>Thanks.<br><br>-Crat<br><br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Update 27 June 2006</span><br><br> People who missed the original event have been<br>puzzled over what I'm talking about here.
