I did read that thread before it was edited, it wasn't anything great (or at least I didn't think so at the time). I'm sure it was NOT what the one poster said it was....a site of great game hacks. All that guy did was reinforce in the Dev's minds that the updating of MQ2 needs to be rethought.
Everyone here (and posters on the MQ2 board) need to remember, the Dev's do the updating because they WANT to, not because they HAVE to. As one of them put it.....I play MQ2 now, not EQ. If you post there, be respectful, and be prepared to get flamed! Take the flames in stride and learn something from what is told to you. Even the flames sometimes yeild useful information. Also, donate the $10 (or more) to get into VIP, its well worth it, and it also makes updating MQ2 somewhat worth the amount of time it takes to do the job.
Anyway, my 2cp's.
