Alfred has, in many was made working on this project more of a burden then a pleasure. This project needs people like Thomas, these people are what make this project thrive. If this community wants this project to reach success then we need Thomas -- as well as many others. What we don't need is a person cutting others down and making a lot of peoples lives miserable.
