Newt had always suspected that people who regularly used the word "community" were using it in a very specific sense that excluded him and everyone he knew.

real mods?
I'd rather have a well written "fake mod" llike Quest Pack, Virtue, Kelsey, or Keto than a poorly written Total Conversion or large mod.  I have played exactly one large mod/TC (just a demo, really) that was actually of real quality and, for some reason, its authors never finished it.  After trying several large mods and TC's the conclusion I've reached is that they either suck (due to bad writing, poor content, glaring continuity errors, etc) or they don't get finished. 

On the other hand, maybe I shouldn't respond so seriously to a joke thread.   ::)

I don't have any problem with Virtue, actually. That (or a similar) system was also implemented in the abovementioned half-assed TC.
My only problem is that i'm really bored by the bhaalspawn stuff, and the sword coast.

I believe that the community has more in it, if half of the efforts burned up in bitching would be used for creative modding, there would be better and bigger mods.

The unfinished TC in question is/was anything but half-assed.  Just (less than) half-finished. :)
