not having a go at anyone or singling any one person out, would just like to gently make a low key nudge that a number of QT guys might also happen to be QQ guys or at least QQ lurkers or vice versa (not saying anyone in particular is either or both but just something to consider maybe, we all know its a small world this Quad game after all) and while I can't and don't speak for anyone else at all, I have to express my mixed emotions (including somethings on a scale of frustration and disappointment) that some kind of light has been shone on what is a very very (very) small closed group which I'm sure would like to stay that way for reasons that ought not need to be spelt out. personally I'd rather that group were not discussed out in the open on any public forum but maybe that's just me being old-fashioned.
i've said it here before, i'll say it til I drop, if the proverbial "everything" Quad was out there digitally, legitimately already, then alternative means of resource would not need to be sought by Quaddies of all persuasions, backgrounds and vintage...
...but sadly it is, so some law-abiding folks grow a beard, chop off their leg, stick a parrot on their shoulder and take to the high seas in the pursuit of that which they cannot legitimately pay for and buy in multichannel!
call them pirates, call them pilferers, call them pioneers if you will.. but me, i call them heroes - and some i'm privileged to call friends. phew!
