(Croses fingers) Hope this doesn't bring down all the flamers on you.
Just a note to say THANK YOU once again from one of your many, many fans/plugin users.
Doesn't matter whether you do or do not play AC anymore. Doesn't matter why you decided to drop El Tank. It was your personal decision to make - for any reason or none at all.
You and the other Decal/Plugin Devs have spent untold hours of your time helping to make the AC game much more enjoyable to literally thousands of players.
Just wanted to make your contribution clear. If this brings the Flamers down on you again, I appologize.

I have to agree with the poster - yes, yes, I know. But even though I went on a wild pissed off rant that lasted months, I do appreciate the time and effort involved in doing so much, for so many for so little in return. Whether or not you ever decide to bring back the best plug in ever conceived (touchy subject for some, I know) - I truly appreciate the efforts you made in keeping it (Eltank) up and running for as long as you did.

Aye, I've gotta agree, one of the most powerful tools available for AC/Decal, it contained so many well made features that it's ability to play the game for you was essentially an oversight. My favorite part was that even though many people used it to UCM that you made an effort to atleast make it more difficult to do so. You were also always trying to think of more ways to make your plugin more useful, an almost all-inclusive plugin.
So from an old fan, thank you, always hoping you'll get a wild hair and bring it back. 'cause LifeTank is a cheap imitation.

And thank you Decal Devs... for putting in the countless hours to make Decal work.. and to update it monthly so that people can continue developing for it, and using plugins every month patch after patch.... If it weren't for you, Decal Devs, then there wouldn't have been this nice Plugin framework.

Although my post was targeted at Elgart (because of the SM type flames he was subjected to), I tried to make it clear that my (our?) appreciation and heart felt thanks goes out to all the Decal Devs, the Plug-in Devs as well as those like Drakier who make the game so much more flexible and enjoyable for others. They are really doing the job Turbine should do for subscribers.
Drakier's post made me realize that I had not made that clear.

Thanks to El and all the decal contributers
Have to say thought that the withdrawal of tank led me to use Alinco, my fav all rounder plug-in of the lot.

ElgarL is a crybaby sissy. They double charged you because you skipped a month of payment when you resubbed.

Wrong, I never resubbed. They charged me as an ex-customer.
Turbine admitted they'd made a mistake, then totally ignored it and hoped it would go away.
The bank agree'd that Turbine were at fault and refunded my money.

I can't see how such a small issue could throw you into such a hissy fit. If anything you were just a) bored with AC and b) tired of coding for the same old project, and used that small issue as an excuse to stop coding for ElTank. Either way it doesn't matter, you were going to leave if not at that point or at some point in the very near future.

He had already quit at that point. Eltank was left up as is until it broke. He just took it down deliberately when Turbine took some money from him.

If I had left it up it wouldn't have needed any updating until this patch. It never was about time dedicated to keeping it updated. Heck I did that for over five years, and some of that time I wasn't sub'd or playing.
But that's not the topic of this thread .

Two reasons that won't happen
1. I don't trust anyone.
2. The whole point of taking it down was so my hard work didn't further support Turbine.

ElgarL, I sure hope you know that many of us out here support you in your decision. We (all that used ElTank) owe you a huge thank you, as it helped us in many ways. Turbine also owes you a thank you for assisting them in keeping clients. You saved them a lot of money making an interface for them.
As for the children that are bad mouthing you in this thread, choose to ignore them, as they will be ignored by society if they keep this attitude as they grow older.
Keep smiling, and again thank you.
