    I don't understand. I wasn't under the impression I answered to anyone. I always thought that these previews were a gift of sorts to you guys, and that the regular schedule I kept was done when I could do so. Just because I could do so for a good period of time doesn't make it a set in stone schedule.

    Like other things we do, these previews are not paid for, and are done as we have the capability and time to do so. I apologize if I have made things difficult for anyone because I haven't dropped my family life and mod work to make the preview for anyone, or to spend the time trying to come up with an explanation for me missing a deadline set for me by the fans.

    How terribly inconsiderate of me.

    Edit: Not a response to Jebus ;)

    Seriously guys, lay off Khelvan. He isn't under any obligation to us, and he's got a life outside the mod. The new preview will come when it comes, and it will almost certainly be amazing.

    Don't get me wrong Khelvan, I am very pleased and grateful with the weekly updates that you make in your spare time.
    They are very good, because of that allot of people are anxious to see the updates.
    What I tried to say to is that if you don't have time because of whatever reason to make a preview I perfectly understand that.
    What I tried to tell you is that If you only placed a new sticky in the forums that you don't have time then it is clear for most EB fans like me.
    Except maybe for Jebus but you can ignore him :-)

    Please guys dont push them so hard. Keep it in mind. EB is a mod. And EB is not for them whole of their daily rutin.

    cold turky...

    But hey Khelvan, you've done a terriffic job since the first EB news thread. And we really appreciate your and all members of the EB team's work. But hey take a look to all these screenshots and stuff would you be able to wait without pulling your hair out?
    well most of us can't. But we can't blame you, well we could only blame you guys for making such a great mod.
    Thx.

    For all the people who are "unhappy" about not getting their fix : the closed beta is in the works. So, if they keep working on it, the sooner they can go to open beta.

    I'm pretty sure most of you are just aching to play it, so give the team some slack. :)

    I've now apointed myself the person who the complainers come to when they are missing their EB fix. I will distribute flowers, hugs, and Grateful Dead teddy bears to make the withdrawls easier, as well as telling bed time stories about the battles I have fought in the latest version of EB.

    Any and all people who continue to bother Khelvan will be trampled by a horse.

    The only suggestion i have is that next time you know you wont get a preview out in time just post a thread saying so. That way you wont have people spending hours on their computer refreshing the page every 5 seconds. Which i wouldnt be surprised if people did.

    Is that their fault? is that normal behavior?
