He described that as the "Code of the West", and it is one I've lived by my entire life.

Is fuckin' GULLY.
LFG, MUCH props for keeping it 100%, and for putting this out there to people. I agree with a lot of people about the 'scary' fact that it was someone else's PM but first we dont know if that person didnt want it posted, and second (even if they didnt) Its still LFG's intellectual property (this site).
For those who don't understand what he means by 'kills the site' and how it hurts him personally, is the fact that a big part of this sites financial viability has to do with the advertisements that are on it, and thats driven by 'viewer ship.' If people stop seeing SOE People post here they will be less likely to post, and as the game gets older anyway more people will leave the game, and less posts means less traffic, less traffic means less revenue from the advertisements, which means less of a reason for LFG to keep the site up and functioning in the way that it does.
So for him to basically be fighting back, at this point he knows its irreparable damage, but fuck that shit, you cop a swing at me and i'm gunna lay you out. It's not about 'an eye for an eye' it's about not letting people bully you, and not backing down when your right. No, the ends doesn't always justify the means, but sometimes the means aren't so bad, and the 'ends' need accomplishing.
Gangsta, living your life by the code of the west. Now i picture you in cowboy boots, a 10 gallon hat and ass-less chaps ... i mean wait, what?
Edit note: Oh yeah, lemme go delete my PM's! :-)
