Ben, the possibilities are limitless...
Dr. D, when friends do something that they are super excited about (aside from going to the reboot premier), I congratulate them. It's what real friends do. This isn't just 'buying something' to me, but I can totally understand why you look at it that way, because you're not a friend. It's perfectly OK. This was a very big deal to me...it's why I shared in the first place that I had won them; plenty of people already knew and were happy for me, and I was posting it here...the very small portion of GBFans where I even make my existence known.
Call me an elitist if you wish...I know that people in this community have called me one before or even worse things. Unfortunately, that's probably why most of my best buddies in the community who used to be prominent here have stopped coming. It's sad and I hope that changes. I have often thought about stepping away too as they have, but this thread keeps me coming back because I feel compelled to finish the project documentation.
It's my fault for taking the attention away from the Ecto project, and for that I accept the ramifications. I'm sorry I brought the traps up...I didn't foresee it causing such a backlash. This thread will continue to keep me coming back here but I'm reverting back to posting about the Ecto only. You can formulate any opinions of me that you wish to; I've led to them by causing this controversy.
