Except Paul is the guy who actually does respond to whatever threads and gives actual information?
You really would prefer either no reply or a canned, "official", yet terribly uninformative reply at rare circumstances?
i love that he responds, that's absolutely excellent, and i love that he does free work for the community, that's also very nice of him
the bit i have a problem with is that he behaves like a petulant child on the forum;
whenever someone asks him a straightforward question he always does his best to say something which i could only describe as a "snidey" comment
all this attitude serves to do is lower confidence in the crpg development team; fair enough if he was a random panos spamming those things whatever, but someone who we're all looking to in a position of power ... :/
EDIT: it's fine when it's funny, cmp and chadz, and sometimes paul make funny posts that give information, but i've seen dozens of time people ask paul for legitimate information which he could easily answer, and he makes a cheap joke at their behest, without providing information and just stirring up a lot of bad feelings against the crpg devs. On the contrary, tydeus comes accross as very professional and mature, the exact sort of ideal thing you want from a dev. I understand this is a mod so not everyone can be a tydeus, but at least being nice would be ok ..
