EP.COM facelift

I notice you completely deleted this from the Contributor section:

http://www.earthprime.com/about.asp

Here's what used to appear there:

"To TemporalFlux, Sliders afficianado, thanks for the skirmishes and most importantly the insider information you've leaked to me every now and then. He may not be the Expert, folks, but he might as well be."

What has changed about any of that? Explain to everyone. How does any of that have anything to do with our "friendship". I have not somehow retroactively never contributed to EarthPrime now...have I? I gave Earth 211 thoughts that were used...I gave you scripts...I gave you tapes...I gave you the comics you were missing so you could finish that section on EP...I helped you have exclusive season five news in advance of anyone else...I gave you insider information (which I shouldn't have bothered doing now, it seems). The list goes on and on. Yet now that I asked you to leave me out of your little games...suddenly I have done nothing for EarthPrime and those comments you said on v3 are suddenly not true. You haven't left me alone...you are proactively deleting me where you think you can get away with it.

And to add the ultimate irony...I apparently can still contribute enough to EarthPrime to have each of my script outtakes pages individually linked to your episode capsules. I do commend you for at least direct linking instead of outright stealing the info, though. That was a pleasant surprise.

The whole problem is that you haven't stopped playing games with me even though I asked you not to based on your supposed respect of me (which you told me you had). You have stated time and again on this board that your "goofing around" should not be equated to when you have something serious to say. People should be able to separate the two. But when the shoe is on the other foot...what do you do? You start deleting my "serious" credits just because I asked you to leave me out of the "goofing around". It started with my entire link (which you told people from this board *wasn't* a mistake before you backpeddled)...now it's this contributor deletion. What's next? You can't separate the "goofing" and the serious...you didn't.

So when's it going to stop? When are you finally going to get enough of "getting back" at me for daring to get sick of your antics and unpredictable mood swings? In any case, it should be a warning to anyone else who has dared contribute to EarthPrime and anyone considering it. I can only imagine Chaser's credit is yet to be deleted because you had already designed that section before that personal problem arose (and it's slipped your mind to alter it). Maybe I'm wrong there...but all I've got to go on is how unprofessionally you've treated me in this area.

And that's why I post this...as a warning to others who think you are their "friend" which they can pay attention to or not. It's your site and you can do whatever you want...including deleting anyone's credit at your whim (which thereafter it will seem as if you did that part all by yourself). But one thing you can't do is give a valid reason why my contribution credit was deleted...except for a reason of spite.
