I think to get the avatars to show up it'd be something similar, just change the size of the name or something (not sure exactly what the variable would be), and the avatar/friend icon should show up.

I'm not saying I agree with anything brad said, or with the way he said it. I'm only saying that he intended for just the Beams to read that. I have friends that I talk shit to/with, and some that we don't pull any punches when it comes to saying what we think. Maybe brad feels he has that sort of relationship with his teammates, that he can say some things like that.

All I'm saying is, if the letter wasn't meant for you to read, don't judge the person on it.

Edit: From Lange's post, maybe some of the beams didn't like the way the letter was worded. But that's between the members of the Lazer Beams, and not tf.tv.

I wish I could minus frag this more than once.

Nobody deserves to be mocked. I don't care how much of a dick, or how arrogant they are, that's just a low and insensitive thing to think about anyone. As far as I'm concerned, you are the arrogant dick.

And to repeat what was said earlier: You are calling him an arrogant asshole, yet you're basing this off a letter that he wrote for a very specific couple of people (i.e. not you). There's a very big difference in the way I talk to people I'm close to, and people that I hardly know.

It's sad to know that people like you are involved in this community. It's good to know that people like Pyyyour, Seanbud, Lange, and countless others are in it, because they help people and contribute to the community (and as far as all my experiences go with those people, they have been nothing but nice and helpful). Those people don't create drama for no apparent reason.

Any idea if the demos will ever be fixed?

They don't seem THAT helpful... just use your ears.
