I guess what it comes down to is time and respect. let me preface this by saying, I don't have theflow's skills nor would I pretend to have. however, my time is just as important to me as yours is to you. there used to a site called ps3gameroom (ever heard of it?) of which I was a member. it no longer exists, possibly due to karma. anyway, someone on there said my tutorials weren't really mine, since I got information elsewhere. I wrote the tutorials, provided the files, I didn't copy and paste like they always did with fixes. oh, the irony! I gave credit to everyone but myself, yet I still wasn't respected for it. what that person(s) didn't seem to understand is that a scene is building off each other's work. there's no one person who figures it all out. you'd have to be pretty damn naive to think that. you're going to get a backlash if you devalue someone else's time. and, considering the people who do that are usually the most selfish people of the bunch, I find it hard to believe that they themselves wouldn't sell out a scene for money (if they had the skills). they've already shown themselves to be selfish when it comes to time and wanting to play newer games at the expense of another person's. they don't care that other people can't play newer games. they care that they can't play newer games.
