Elgin, these are my last words to you.

GET A FUCKING CLUE HOW IT WORKS IN THE REAL WORLD.

the .qst system (wesquests) was never broken in reality. Idiots just didnt use it right. Guildwars is proof of that since we never used the faulty perl code. (perl causes lots of crashes on high traffic server. Great code! Go elgin! Thank you! We love you! <enough prase yet?>)

As for your name in the changelog, As i said before YOU CAN REQUEST IT.

I highly doubt any developer wants to take time from omg developing to sit and add every name of every person that has ever contributed any code.

Let me think does the largest opensource project have a contributers page as you have requested...nooooooo I dont see any such thing over at the linux kernel site. (http://www.kernel.org/) they have millions of contributers. im sure some have contributed code that would r0xx0rz yer s0xx0rz yet i have a hard time finding any contrib information reguarding those people!

If you contributed code to windows that sped it up by 50% you think ms would put yer name somwhere? Fuck no. Thats not how it works. You want your name in the changelog? ask, i'll add it np!

As for trumpcard leaving, that was his choice, he as he stated, never realy had much interest in the project. His function on the dev team was pretty limited at the end there (running profiling checks on the code). Sorry to see him go as a person, as a coder he wont be missed. And nor will you elgin goodbye and have a good life.
