JB, please don't leave. Make it a 'break' instead.
I'm not really following too much on this argument, but I've been playing SonicX (yours) since I was 11, and I'd be a lot happier if it didn't take a silly 2-page argument on 'originality' to make the creator leave. Heck, he's a legend from what I see.
But yeah, after reading over it again, it does look like you took the criticism too badly at first, but then, since you did just that, it was blown way out of proportion, and you got the famous, 'you're a narrow-minded asshole who only wants to hear what he wants to hear' spiel, which even I could probably say, is extremely annoying, and from that point on, everything went to heck. I believe that games should be original, but like Nek said, if it's fun, I'll play it.
But yeah, man. Don't go. Take a break if you need one, but don't let this get in your way. With anything.
