You haven't given a reason why you should keep it, either. The fact is, you've had months and haven't done anything. We don't care why, we just care that we still haven't a 2k1 server to play. The year 2001 was four years ago. Why is it that the server that was created in 2001 is "not ready" by 2005?

So I guess because a player made the request, it is a bad idea?

Because your position is absurd.

Yet you'll let one of your cronies violently bash someone for this very same reason. You know, telling someone to "drown themself" is kind of wrong, isn't it?

I guess statistics and probabilities are lost to you?
It's not unfair to suggest that Konidias is working faster and more quality-efficient than you. So far, the only screenshots we have are ones that show minute improvement. Conversely, Konidias has shown us interesting screenshots over a comparitively small amount of time.

You do make such a fuss over competition, because then you have to work to keep your job.

Want a pacifier to help you suck up?
By the way, you are doing exactly what you're accusing Koni of in the next quote:

Obviously, as it precludes the necessity to edit Rabid's post to remove what you deem as "cheerleading" (which is, by the way, a laughable excuse which will be reported to the higher officials).

Well, you've failed at showing reasonable results for this work you claim to be doing. Seven screenshots doesn't account for so many months of what seems to be inactivity.

Posting fictional 'facts', misleading statistics, misrepresentations of reality, and fallacious arguments just isn't going to cut it around here (except, of course, with VT - remember, if you ever actually point out a fallacy he has committed, he insists that you are actually "employing hilariously redundant Latin phraseology" rather than accept that he has made an error in reasoning).
I really must update that site. You've all given me much more ammunition than I previously had.
