What makes you think it isn't being released under equal ownership between me and Jacob? I build communities and websites, and it just so happens the only announcements of its release are coming through the website I'm building for it. I may not be responsible for the later code in MR, but I sure as hell am responsible for the direction it went.
Saying he has put ALL the effort into Mirage Realms is quite insulting. We decided to release the source as both of us have bigger future plans, don't talk about something you know nothing about.
The same goes for Konfuze. The website and community that Konfuze was built on was designed, raised and strictly moderated by me. If you remember at the time we had a fantastic website and a flood of newcomers constantly - I was advertising everywhere (even in the local paper) and working my arse off to keep the site and community fresh. The product was pushed forward by me. The product was created by me, and Sean was dragged onto the project by me. As for letting me keep my spot? lol.
If I have to step on some toes to get people outside of our little communities to find MS then that's completely Ok with me, I'm not here to win a popularity contest - But don't tell me I have put nothing into MR when its the project I've worked on for the last 3 - 4 years, thinking its just a case of "oh Jacob, code something cool plz kthx muhauhauahuaha" is pathetic.
I have respect for Rian, and I'd love to of helped revitalise things here - but who needs me when we have people like Matt eh.
I don't see this as being dirty as the vast majority of people I would show loyalty towards have already left because this place is fucked. There aren't enough people I care about left for me to have any second thoughts as if people start finding MS through MR - I want to make sure its supported properly.
Its not a membership race, I've nothing to gain. MS on the other hand has everything to lose, and its not going to.
