It's fine if Tseng doesn't want to hand over 2k1 to me. I won't fight it unless he feels it would benefit 2k1 for him to step down, which apparently he doesn't. If he thinks he can bring back 2k1, then he is more than happy to try.
I will try and talk to Stefan and possibly get something set up (and his permission of course) to work on my own variation of the server. In truth, I'm not sure what has changed on 2k1 since Tseng took over, and there might be some decent stuff there that I had no part in making. So it's only fair for him to keep what is there and release it at his own time.
I've already started (at least with some graphic concepts) for the new 2k1 I have planned. I'll probably focus mainly on revamping the graphics first off, as that's a major element to the revision I'd like to see. I'm questioning as to whether or not this could be seen as a "2k1" project, and be allowed it's own forum in this area. Not because I feel I deserve such a thing, but because 2k1 was such a large part of Graal, that it would be easier for me to recieve input towards my version of the server in a seperated forum, than to not know whether to ask for input here, or on the playerworld forums.
Also I think Kaimetsu's complaint that nobody should be given a shot at reviving 2k1 as it would "poison the nostalgia", is sort of silly. You can't destroy the past by bringing it back and changing it. It's like... Michael Jackson might be an oddball today, and a lot of people dislike him... but they don't argue that his old music wasn't good. A child star could be loved by millions when they were a child, and a total loser when they grow up, but people will still remember them in their glory days.
Same thing with 2k1. It's already been dragged through the mud and yet I still yearn for the days when Stefan was still working on it, and it was a lot more simplistic. It just seems like a poor excuse to me. That is my opinion, and I'd rather not have Kaimetsu try to own me with his superior mind. I don't want to debate about it, nor do I have the posting ability to do so. I can't possibly achieve much arguing only being able to post once per day. So with that being said... the arguements can cease now. Kaimetsu doesn't hold the final word in anything so there is really no point in proving anything to him.
I'm not going to push for Tseng's removal, I'm just giving him a chance to step down from something that he doesn't seem to be enjoying. If he'd rather continue with his project, then so be it. |
