Thread: Why did TRM delete his thread and stop work on his repack?

Lmao, that's sure going to get him back.

lol Gonna have to agree with you on that, but I'm simply gonna say, that only time will tell if he comes back and there is no reason to start flipping out because he deleted his thread, coulda just deleted it for the time being, til he becomes operational again. But, on the side-note, there are plenty of people who tried to help him better the repack by doing the minor things(I.E. Spawning ICC(Thrylas, and myself and others), Fixing items(Colvin and others), fixing mobs that needed it(Abyss, and others(?))), and there are people who could read, and got the server up and running and simply said thanks, awesome repack, keep it up...can't wait til the next update. Then there is always the red-headed step child that was delivered by Fedex(No offense meant). Who couldn't follow instructions, and before double checking the instructions or their mistakes would simply begin to make multiple posts in the thread, asking stupid questions, or asking questions that they could read through the thread and find the answer to, because they thought they're too good to follow instructions.

If Meth wants to keep the repack down, and update to himself(Personally don't think he does) then I support him completely, he puts the time and effort into making this the perfect repack. Personally, I think the people who play retail(no offense to anyone who may play retail, and knows how to read instructions correctly) and are new to this stuff should either A. Learn to ask intelligent questions, B. Learn to read/write better so if you do ask an intelligent question it's understandable and/or read that there was already a solution to the problem you're posting..and C. Learn that the people who are doing these things, aren't paid to do it, and they're probably a team a 5 developers vs a whole floor of developers.

(I gave read every post, on every page(like possibly a few others) in his thread, if a group of people can do it, I don't see why the rest of the people can't do it.)

EDIT: Sorry for complaining:P But been following him since he first posted the repack(like some others) and it's becoming frustrating seeing it brought down because of pure ignorance on the part of the users of the repack.

EDIT: Open source or not, it's still common courtesy to give credit to the person who spent time doing the code, rather than just going "Yeah...I did this all" cause it'll backfire, because there is a slight chance(or good chance) that you won't know the solution if you encounter a problem.
