		I would like to make it clear at this point that this post is not an attack (at anyone or anything), but an attempt by myself to clear up some confusion. 
 
 
I played around with commando and RenX for ages. Then recently, thinking Renegades days were numbered I decided to start belting out a few maps. 
 
Obviously, like everyone else, I ran into some problems, and looked for some mod forums. I use several, Laeubis, this one, evo, renstation etc, and all contain an even mix of idiots and helpful peeps - just like the real world!     
 
I keep hearing this word 'community' getting bandied about, and Im pretty sure the people using it have no idea what it means. You know something? In a COMMUNITY people help each other. Hell a local COMMUNITY will help the sick the old the criminals the stupid the young - kinda everyone see? 
 
As a neutral outsider looking in, id say this: I have yet to see an awful mod, map or conversion. Even drop mods. As far as I am concerned, anyone that bothers to use 1 MILLISECOND of their life to make something Renegade related deserves credit - yet all I see is different sites and folks arguing and calling each other shit. 
 
This is stupid, petty crap, and it needs to stop.
