(Sent to VoidMage and GIR, as well as you just so you know):
You guys are trying to call Nate out for hypocrisy, but he's only mad because none of you are listening to him. He originally said that modding wasn't a popularity contest and the most popular isn't the best.
The reason he's mad is that this so-called "popular" mods are far inferior to some lesser-known mods (not necessarily talking about him) in one respect or another, yet the creators can be so caught up in their own hype that they don't let anyone speak well of any other mods. I must rehiderate: Nate is mad because you people act like the amount of traffic your mod threads generate are equal to the size of your penis. He's not leaving because his aren't recieving "enough," he's leaving because you guys are draining away any at all with sub-par, poorly-planned updates.
