As posted in my previous topic, I am forced to leave the EF Community due to RealLife issues. I had hoped to return in a few months, but I see somethings here are just getting worse and worse, so I wish to address a few before I say my final farewell.

The EF Mod Forums are for creative people to get together and help each other. It is not meant to show pics of your girlfriends, talk about how bad someone's map looks, nor attack other programmers who are trying to discuss an important mapping issue.

When someone does present a WIP, helpful advise and support is what is needed, not insults or laughter. Don't make the creator feel that any map not using certain textures and light entities is crap and not worth the download.

I'm mostly tried of 'non-mappers' jumping into the middle of every single topic just to rack up their posting-count. If someone posts an image, only reply if you like it or you think something about it could be improved. Stop posting just to hear yourself type. That's what the General Forums are for.

It truely blows that it's come down to this. I used to look forward to Screenshot Day, but now it is flooded with post after post of personal banter that should have been done on PM. And I'm tired of seeing new people come in here for advice, but no one seems interested in helping them anymore.

I certainly hope the Mods get this place cleaned up by the time I get back to mapping. You yakkers can flood the other forums with your hate and flame topics all you want. This place should be a nice forum to hang at. God knows I'm forced to deal with a$$holes all day at work. I'm not about to waste my private time doing the same.

Fairwell fellow artists. Best of luck to everyone.

see you in EF2  

Too bad you're leaving.   But, as neural links says: When EF2 comes out, things will be straigten out again. Or so I hope.

Good bye!  

1.  I've never seen someone ask a technical question here, and not get an answer.

2.  A lot of people consider others on these boards friends, so there's bound to be some 'banter.'

3.  Sorry to see you go.  Have fun doing whatever you're doing.

i quite agree with agent, all questions usualy get answered within at least a day.

and well its a shame that we canall love eachother, but hey thats just life, i think this mod board is gr8, and a very friendly board tooo.....

and its not offten that someone insults people on screenshotday, cause we all know eachother and more importantly RESPECT eachother


BTW its a shame to see you go....

What you guys don't know, is that I'm leaving within a few weeks as well

BTW: New avatar
<<<====

i love the new avatar



but y what u 2?  

Wat, ik vergeet Sinterklaas wel! Lees maar hier.

But the reason(s) I'm leaving:
1. I just don't like it anymore then that I used to.
2. Very busy with school.
3. I've got a Medal of Honor Clan.
4. I'm playing more games now than that I map

And some other reasons....

But maybe I'll return when EF2 comes out (with the developingtools of course )

I only have to release my mod to the public and then...

It's over!  

But it's true that you see this board and his members as friends...  

Cya dude, and Live Long and Prosper.

I greatly applaud your works in mapping for EF. I hope to see you back again.
Cheers
