But, quoting Jim Dunnigan, "good designers shamelessly steal ideas from each other" - and indeed few can trace the precise origins of any idea they like. Who cares?
I care. I, for one will not tolerate your inuendo. I have never even looked at RHS, much less downloaded it or cared one whit about it. Neither have my developer colleagues. Your claim the we shameless stole from you is nothing more than a shameless, egotistical lie. That's right, a lie. I know this for a fact, because I was there. And why should I care? because you have this history of basing your posts on "secret" or "special" knowledge that you have no legitimate claim to, but nevertheless use to convince people that you, and only you, have the correct answer.

Back in the WiTP days neither Matrix nor Grigsby cared the slightest bit about what you thought or claimed. But AE is a Henderson Field Designs title and we do care. It's a different playing field and this one has umpires. We do care what you think. We also care about what you claim. Don't confuse the one with the other.

You wouldn't be challenged so harshly if you would just post your thoughts without making such outrageous and offensive claims. Try playing like everyone else. You might just find that credibility comes from the ability to express knowledgeability in an effective manner, rather than beating people with your ego.

If you would simply be righteous, Sid, none of this would happen. You have things to contribute, but no one wants to listen because of the way you express it. Righteousness for righteousness' sake is often a good thing.

Hear, hear!

I was pretty adamant among others that Allied AAA in AE was bit "borked". Provided some "evidence" and among the peer pressure came..DaBabes corrections. And it was definitely not MY effor that did it. Valid claims bring valid responses. Asinine claims..well...

Only "real" contribution in modding community for me was convincing A. Brown that sub air-search radars actually worked and their subsequent addition to CHS mod in WitP.

My advice to "elcid" (and (")s are not insult, just to denote that it's a nickname) is, to have his own site, publish it there and link it here. With posting something like "I have this OOB or this or that". This way we'd avoid this on-going "feud". I am sure that your OOB would be (e.g.) useful for modders.

I just don't see much point trying to second-guess and contradict developers with data they definitely already have.
