I really don't care, just don't come here acting like he is the only reason why ogaming would buy the place or he is the reason why it has so many people here because he isn't.
Nm I have said enuff, peoplel like him just get under my skin.

I fail to see how someone "like him" can get under your skin. He is simply trying to ensure that his art remains free for the users he has provided art to for years. He also wants to verify that they are not profiting from his art as it was not intended for resale in any form. If that makes him a "big selfish baby" in your eyes then you are severely warped. As far as referring to his art as "junk", I've taken a look at yours... You have no room to criticize.
I don't believe anyone involved with this site or any of the others in the OGaming network have ever gone so far as to "kiss his arse". As many of the team involved in the network are his friends he has done nothing but treat them with the utmost respect. Something you clearly lack as you could learn a lot artistically from the artist in question.
He does not believe that his art would define the acquisition of the network, however, it is undeniable that the majority of interfaces provided by the network are either his works or products that contain portions of his work. While EQ2 is not something he has been able to contribute to due to his current work status, it does not diminish the capacity his work has taken here.

I resent the assertion that O'gaming is a greedy evil megacorporation. If they start trying to charge for access to their databases or to the interfaces then I will have a problem with them but because they use ad dollars to pay for their costs and maybe even some sort of sallary..? Com'mon...

In no way shape or form has he ever given the impression that he feels they are a "greedy evil megacorporation". Again, he simply wants to ensure that his works remain free to the public. Everyone has the right to earn an income from the work the do, but when someone provides a free service to a community, they have every right to ask for verification that it will, in fact, remain free in every way.
