I could be smarmy and say Guess I'll stop working on those new classes/races/cabals. No new features...got it. I'll just keep going on for bug fixes & new areas.

And all you want is content? All you want is new areas? I find that amazingly hard to believe, but it's your opinion. And if that is all you want...then you don't get it. CF is an ever-evolving game of features and content. It always will be. This is not a stagnant environment.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
