Today a very important member has left us. He was a great blogger, always bringing something new in a polite way, yet you hated. After getting tons of hate, he disabled his account and said that unless the pointless hated on him would stop, he won't return. Imagine that you spent a good bit of time making an official blogspot extension for SDK, and people gave it almost as many -1's as +1's in less than a day, all because of stupid things like "people won't be able to tell that the site is an extension of 3DSPaint because the link is too small on V1 of the site." What if people hated on everything you did just because they're asses? Would you be able to return time and time again, professional and polite? Well, Moulder was able to. Time and time again, he endured the rudeness and kept pushing forward. Not only that, but he picked up an almost-abandoned project and turned it into a nice website with the help of Wayne. But humans can only endure so much. He has left us, and said that he and 3DSWeather will be breaking all ties with SDK unless we show him that he is an important part of our community. So now that you're getting to the end, don't even look at the thumbs down icon. Remember that there is always a cost for those hateful comments and downvotes. So don't rate this blog; rate Moulder. Do you really want to lose yet another member and, IMO, an amazing blogger? I will be linking this to Moulder, so tell him how much you love him with the comments and thumbs-up icon.
He left because he was doing something for attention and not for the love of doing it. He is no worse than any attention seeker getting mad when no one says hello to them after being in the chatroom for thirty seconds.
There was no hate involved, it was only his own selfishness.
Sucks to see him go, but whatever. Maybe this will teach him and other people to do things for the love of the craft, and not for the attention.
I could tell he did all he did for enjoyment, not attention. He wrote about things he loves, like Skywarn, and just wanted to share his thoughts with other people. This isn't like LazerWolf rage-quitting this site due to his anger-issues. This guy feels so hated here that he wants to run away from a community he's put so much in.

In reply to NillocSkywalker
I will dissolve all connections with the SDK Community unless I am convinced otherwise that my work is appreciated.
Nope, again that is attention seeking. Do you hear Danny, Skunk, Arch, hell even myself or any of the other harder working admins say the same thing? Nope, because we are not doing this to get "appreciated", we are doing what we do because we like it, and we want to create something to be enjoyed, not for attention like that.
Sorry I do not buy into the whole "WAAAHH U ALL HAET ME" bullcrap, and I never will. No one really hated him, or the things he did and the only reason people -1d his blogs was probably because they were not geared to the people who -1's them, it sucks, but whatever, its a website, not real life, and if you are getting that asspained over that, then chances are, the time away is a good thing.
