Oh you mean the big post where DDL replies to my request for some answers? I guess you didn't think it was enough updating for you since one day after you felt the
need to ask for screenshots?
Incidently I read every post of this thread with interest (including yours of course). What I have left in my mind is just DDL's words that you direct me to:
DDL wrote:Myself, I figured popping in to quickly say "dude we're still doing shit" was enough, coz really: why would we lie?
I guess DDL himself thought that the sporadic, quick updates given here were enough. In short, that no more was
needed.
What I meaned with "need" is very simple: At some point, people are carving for updates, they *need* moar, they have a need. Need.
I start to understand the meaning of the word "addiction" more than the word "need". But everyone is not the same. I am, like you, one that would love to read as many updates as possible because I am very interested and would love to be informed.
On the other hand, many modders themselves have told us that they'd rather work on the job being done than come here to post detailed updates. And as a modest modder myself, I can understand it. You spend hours working on something possibly very tedious and you don't really want to be reminded of that by going through it in the form of public updates. You just want to pull the plug.
I don't mean to write as if I was attacking you because I have been around this forum for many years, almost every day, just hoping to read news about both NV and HDTP. But now that it seems HDTP is around the corner and after the big post of DDL replying to all my questions (we are not related nor friends but he still took time to reply to me in a detailed, satisfactory fashion), I do feel we should just leave the guy alone and let him complete his non paid job.
