Herman, if the Harpoon is Sh!t in a Box, which is what it must be since you whine so much, then why the hell do you keep playing it? My point is that you will never get the game exactly like you want it. There's going to be some compromises no matter what game it is.
And no Herman, I don't play H3...I never played any of the H2/H3 line of games. Never said or implied that I did. I used an example of things that I DID DO WITH HC2002. And if I didn't actually play as much back then as you'd like me too, that was probably because I was working 10 hours a day, six days a week, and a bit on Sunday, and spent a large amount of my time in IRC discussing the project and providing direction and goals (that's what leadership does, Herman, rather than sit around and whine about your favorite can getting kicked) AND going through a ton of HULL email every night. Oh, almost forgot...I am and was married at the time. Didn't get to do much with the wife or the rest of my family back then.
So don't sit there and judge me, Herman, don't even try. I paid my dues and then some, and I STILL spend a fair portion of my free time dealing with Harpoon. See, I'm still dedicated to the ideals passed on to me by Ed Ladner and Saul, and many other fine people, to always work towards keeping the game alive...rather than sitting around b!tiching about bugs (instead of working with the dev team to get rid of them, and yes, I know why you aren't there anymore, Don was REAL sorry you left...NOT) and bad-mouthing the game at every turn.
Boats, who is NOT interested in hearing your excuses or BS, because I've already heard more than enough.
