"WOW! I haven't seen this much heated debate since Renderosity changed the look and feel of the site." "Heated?" Perhaps. If so, give yourself a hug for engendering a healthy debate! >"Man, you would have thought people were going to pull a Jonestown or something" Not at all. You'd simply think that some people disagree with you and/or your tactics in this thread. >"@xoconostle: What was ill-considered," Exactly what I'd said. Your reference to the poor soul at 3DC. >"and just what WAS it that I was implying? I think you may have misunderstood my use of the word "imply." I wasn't referring to you, but to the man with cancer. If you think I've misunderstood some implications of your own (which I haven't,) by all means state them clearly, rather than baiting others. "Was it about smoking? Did you read my original post?" Of course. I've read this entire thread. You did indeed refer to "the use of tobacco," and you're trying to make a point about Renderosity's morality or lack thereof being all about the dollar. "And if you think I'm the PC Police, you're sorely mistaken." I'm glad to hear it. >"After you get done hugging yourself, figure it out." A lame attempt to insult. I wasn't seeking to flatter or "hug" myself at all. I see where you're coming from, and can also see where this is headed. :-) Have you considered any of the counterpoints made in this thread? Petulance is boring, but some of the responses have offered tasty food for thought. Bon apetit!
