Epiphany
(last edited on August 7, 2009)
I've come to a realization today. Perhaps it could be called an epiphany. But first, allow me to briefly recap a few facts.
It hasn't been easy trying to build an entire game consisting of over 40 levels, new models, and artwork, using old outdated technology. As if the difficulty in doing all of this wasn't enough, I've also been forced to publicly battle those who would attempt to damage my work and reputation. I've seen my work copied and imitated, and attempts to cause destruction to this project have been made by those that don't like any true facts being revealed. It doesn't matter that these facts are all supported with evidence that can be easily found on the internet.
Let me just make this perfectly clear. I honestly don't care how many resources are taken from other games by untalented parasites. That has in fact never really been a major issue with me. However, imitating and copying from a project that is still in development and has been in development for over 2 years is a legitimate problem that has actually occurred. Another rather serious issue is the attempt to financially profit from copyrighted resources of company owned games, or through the imitation of work that has been ongoing for some time. When history, and recent evidence confirms these allegations, then there is no legitimate reason for that truth not to be revealed. It is not slander, malicious, or dishonest in speaking the truth.
However in speaking the truth and providing evidence, I was forced to publicly engage in a ridiculous battle to defend the work that I have been doing for over 2 years. I was then mocked, ridiculed, and insulted continuously by these individuals simply for providing honest facts.
As a result of all of this, I attempted to stop all of the nonsense by ending all further updates of this project on the internet. I thought this would prevent any further imitation and destruction of my work and reputation. However as a test of sorts to determine whether any further efforts of mine might still be duplicated, I did post a few new images on this site last month. It was no great surprise then that I would later find on some other site, a mirror image of 2 trees and a stone fence at a 90 degree angle, with some green grass, under a night sky. There's even grass sprites at the base of the tree. Those seem to be an awful lot of coincidences, don't you think? Now, what are the odds that this image isn't based on my work? Well, considering that everything I do "inspires" this fool, and the fact that he still visits this website constantly, that seems rather unlikely. I was curious over exactly which of the new images of mine would be copied, and I suppose this individual had no time or talent, to imitate and build the actual church...
Although I've no longer posted any facts or personal opinions on the internet for quite some time lately, I am also still being insulted for no apparent reason. I think the Blood community should be made aware of this reward that I continue to receive for all of my hard work that I've done over the past 2 years, because this is the cause of my epiphany.
Due to the never ending ridiculous behavior and actions of these selfish, immature, and destructive individuals, I have reached my epiphany. I've come to realize that life is too short for any of this nonsense. I have tried to remain silent recently and I don't believe that I deserve any of this never ending bull shit, for working my ass off, and trying to do something good for the Blood community for over 2 years. I definitely haven't been working my ass off so that assholes like this can imitate my work, and then continuously insult me. People like this don't deserve the effort that I've put into this project, and it seems that hard work and honesty are pointless anyways when it's simply easier to lie and steal, and cause some destruction and damages to profit financially.
I still receive insults and mockery from this group of individuals even though I've no longer even been posting on the internet lately. It just demonstrates how truly sad and pathetic they are, and they would apparently like nothing better then to see this project end. They imitate my work and ideas, and try to profit financially on copyrighted material, and then attempt to do further damage when I reveal these facts publicly. I've basically been forced off of the internet because of these asses. They are relentless in their attempts to damage my work and reputation, and for the most part, people generally remain apathetic to the truth and the facts. Theft, lies, and bad behavior are apparently unimportant to most of the Blood community, and that is truly unfortunate.
Things could have been different...

I swear kurt is the biggest single reason I continue to work on my game."

"I'd like to give a special thanks to that overbearing, vile and pathetic, Kurt- "I-can't-get-it-up-in-the-morning-without-some-massive-character-assasination-before-breakfast-" Fuhr. No one manipulates, schemes, libels, feigns injury, hates, spews venom and purification quite like you. I hope you're able to keep that boiling hatred of yours up and percolating as it seems to be the only thing you have left as far as motivation is concerned."

"Also, the latest screenshot I uploaded was partly inspired by that sewer video you uploaded, I really liked it. It added a lot of ambiance that wasn't there in Blood 2, so I took the idea and made a big section of a level in the same vein."

"I'm now going to do everything I can to belittle you. I'm going to humilate the fuck out of you. You've given me no choice. And I hope you get sick and throw up, and then choke on your throwup."
