Oh please - enough is enough. Some of you just take yourselves WAY too seriously, I think. That you sit in judgment of me without knowing the slightest bit about my personality, my motivations or my thought processes in this particular situation is ignorant at best, downright moronic at worst.

If someone came up to you and said: "Hi. We'd like you to create and design a MUD based on the work of your favorite childhood author, who, by the way, has only ever licensed -two- other computer games. It has the potential to amass a huge userbase, about 10 to 20 times the size of your current project, and we've got a unique codebase for you to structure your work on. Oh: and we'll pay you, so you can do this full time - and you know all those annoying student loans you've got? You'll be able to pay those off, so you can take your $160,000 degree and TAKE that $40,000 public servant position you've wanted since you were a kid the moment you're finished with school." - what would you say?

Sad, bitter people.
