    As the now infamous thread has been closed I think, we,fans need to voice our love for Gustave.

    We all love Gustave and appreciate his tireless and absolutely, critically, and fundamentally important contributions to EBII over several years of time well spent, but if the guy doesn't want the job then so be it. That's his decision. I don't think a petition is going to change his mind or the deep chasm of disagreements he has with certain other members of the team.

    An appraisal thread can perform miracles.

    Generally artists struggle to create when hog-tied and blindfolded. Unless they're postmodernists.

    Just let it be, if they're able to get back to a professional work relationship behind the scenes there would certainly no one to complain.

    This nonsense here, on the other hand, serves no one.

    Gustave not feeling appreciated by the fans was never part of the problem, heck take a look at the so-called infamous thraed if you have any doubts.

    Guys, let the team deal with the internal team issues itself. You may do more harm than good. We're very, very lucky to have an effective EBI team, and you'd better pray it stays so effective to polish the mod. So let's stop posting on this issue.

    Can we not? We literally had the drama thread thankfully closed a few days ago. If Gustave does not want to work with the eb team any more let him ffs. This is not for us to decide and we should not stirr around in open wounds

    I don't see anything that wrong with this thread's purpose. Obviously, Gustave is the one who ultimately knows if he wants to come back to the team and work for the mod, but at least this serves the purpose of letting him know he's respected and valued, at least by us, the fans and passionate players of this great mod for making incredible-looking units for such an old game. And we'd greatly appreciate benefitting from his great work once more. Might be a little bit of an incentive.

    It's too soon to be reopening these wounds, guys.

    That's exactly the aim of this thread. Who dont love Gustave shields ?
    Also we fans are not responsible of the bad communication between EB members.

    Or shooting a bondage porno. I guess in the case of EBII it would be something like Cleopatra holding an Egyptian-cobra-skin whip and dominating King Artavasdes II of Armenia in golden chains. Woe to the vanquished and all that.

    I don't think this thread is helping matters. Gustave is already aware of the public support for him from the very closed thread you mentioned.

    In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if this thread was promptly closed for stealthily parroting the very purpose and nature of the now closed thread.
