I understand Rob's dilemma perfectly.

Hi, I'm Haldir74, also known as MugurumaKensei, any Bleach fans might know the name...
Yeah, you guys don't know the name.

Anyway, I've been a member of the forum for a long time. However, I rarely post. In fact, I too have been inactive on this forum for about a year, or more. Of course, it's a much bigger deal for the admin not to show up than the regular member.

Anyway, I'm also a mod of Warcraft III. Perhaps some of you know the game... Pretty popular. Anyway, I'm making a Bleach AoS (Area of Strife) map. Basically it's like a DOTA game. If you don't get that, it's like a League of Legends game. If you don't get that, it's like a Heroes of Neworth game. If you don't get that, you just don't get it -.-

So, I make models and skins as well as modify existing models and skins. I can animate characters, and I work quickly. So far, I should be sounding somewhat like Rob, our buddy that everyone should know.

After working on my map for about 6 months. My friend and I ran into a tough spot. We couldn't get the spells/abilities into the game, because neither of us were coders. We still hadn't/haven't released the first version, so it would be easy to announce the mod dead before it was born, right?

Wrong! I was unwilling to call it quits. I searched and searched for 2 months, and I finally found a coder. Not just a coder either, he's one of the best, if not the best coders in Warcraft III modding.

My whole point in telling you that story is that when you hit a brick wall, it's incredibly difficult to continue. However, sometimes you just need someone to help you. My other point is that being a mod myself truly lets me know that Rob is right. When I mod, I get so engaged in it, I tend to mod for the whole day...

So, in simple terms, I think that it's great that the mod is continuing, and I also think that it's great that they've conquered the wall after so much time. Never give up, Rob. And Forum, never stop letting him know how much you care for him and his mod. He's not just making this mod for himself you know. It's a gift to the community. And to be loved by your community like a benevolent dictator truly means a lot to any admin. Many admins are incredibly jealous. For example, I am...
My forum can't really begin until the release of the first version, so until then I don't have much of a community.

Keep up the good work, Rob. Never give up hope for your mod, because your support will never fade.

Thank you,

Jay

PS: If anything I said at any point offended anyone, remember it was a joke. Whenever you guys get mad at me, it's a joke.

PSS: I also know this is really long lol. Thanks for taking the time to read it, or if you didn't, shame on you you lazy person...
