Lord of the House of the Silver Laurel wrote: I feel like if I try to pick one of these sides, I'll become a target for the opponent. If I don't, I'm caught in the crossfire. So, here is a fresh view on this subject, unbound by the precepts that both sides have constrained themselves with.

Aarplane: There are opinions, and you're entitled to one, that is true. Does that mean that your opinion is better because you wrap it in prose and conceal your true statement? No. Not everything that everyone wants would fit. Personally, I believe that there should be a different class for your texture. Will this happen? Probably not. But that does not mean you must take out your anger and frustration on the "coloured-bubbled" people for a slight on either part.

The admins: Not everything is a all-or-nothing scheme. There is a common ground in everything, and surely you and the opponents to your arguments can come to a agreement. Perhaps Aarplane is right. Perhaps you are. Either way, this will not end well for anyone if both sides can't agree on something. Anything at all at this point would be welcome.

I won't be saying much more on this argument for I feel that as mature as we all are, we should have the strength to let this go and wash away the lines in the sand that your repsective sides have drawn. Interesting points. You are the Lord of my Galadhrim kin, and you may have allied with me in the past, but I won't hesitate to point out certain things I disagree with.

My points are not from my own standpoint, unlike the admins, who have named nothing but personal speculation and citing Mevans as the ultimate solution. My statements are from clear observable facts, which make them objective and not subjective. I am not trying to "conceal" my true statement, my true statement remains the same and more apparent than ever: blind moving hating is a fallacy, and prevents the mod from better potentials. You're right that it will most likely not happen, that's why I created the resource pack; for people who see the better potential, and to give them a choice to break free from this uncalled-for movie hate.

It's not necessarily "anger" towards them, it's more of frustration; frustration that the mod has potential that's being blocked, by a blind bias that's been disproven. As I've said in the past, I care a lot about this mod, and I only want the best for it. If I see room for improvement, I'm going to point it out, with logic and factual evidence (which I have). It's really the admins who refuse to take it (despite saying that they accept outside input), because they cling to this delusion that the armor in the mod is more canon than that of the movies. I have the right to take out the already proven truth on them, colored bubble or not.

You're right that this discussion should be coming to a close. The matter of whether the movie design has a right to exist in the mod has already been proven, and justified. I'm only still here to prevent these biased admins from taking my words out of context. If I was continuing the discussion, I would be bringing new elements to the table. But I'm not, I'm correcting their twisting of my statements and setting the record straight.
