Each D2X-XL version has about 5000 - 6000 downloads. There are a few
people who actually prefer Rebirth's dated look over D2X-XL's improved
graphis, but there's enough Rebirth users who turned away from XL for
the one and only reason that I wouldn't tolerate their behaviour
towards me, and you are one of them. At least you are having the
character not to use XL (Or do you?). My commendation.

It is just so that you constantly make a lot of not just unfounded,
but completely clueless and false claims like the above, or just
generally that XL would be inferior to Rebirth - oh sure it is. It's
renderer is just two or more times faster than Rebirth's, it has
particle effects, colored light, per pixel lighting, high resolution
textures and 3D models, and and and. Sure, that gives Rebirth a
huuuuuuuuge edge. Geez, this is so stupid that it makes a brick look
smart in comparison.

 and that is so because your pathetic swollen ego couldn't take being
told that I am fed up with your arrogant, ungrateful attitude towards
me when I tried everything to make D2X-XL work everytime you had a
problem with it. I had once given you a special treatment for what you
had done for the Descent community, but you haven't deserved it,
because you took it as a carte blanche to behave like a spoiled brat
towards me.

Now go fuck yourself.
