Who Controls Future Mods of Project M?

Damn, that was record time:

I didn't even have a chance to post my follow up.. Was going to follow that up with:

Similarly, why is Strong Bad still a community leader (deciding the future of Project M) and why are people following him? I realize it's probably out of respect for the people that made Project M. You want to respect their wishes because you appreciate their work. It would be terrible to stab the former PMDT in the back by going against their wishes and end up getting them in legal trouble for it. And also because it's easiest to just play 3.6. But does this mean all future mods of project m should stop?

The answer is: the damage is done. It's futile to try and stop people from modding a mod. People will mod any game they please, regardless of the creators' wishes. (anarchy)

And project m is a game mod made by a bunch of people as a hobby. If they truly abondonded their project, then anyone should be able to pick it up and do with it what they please. But it feels like they haven't abondoned it at all: they still leading all future development of project m (according to themselves).

I know I should just leave this forum and find somewhere else.. But if I can't go here, or to reddit, where should I go?



And I realize this discussion will also be silenced because all who question the supreme ruler (self-proclaimed anarchist) of project m are silenced.

My status on the moderation staff of Smashboards is irrelevant to the status of the former PMDev. I am a moderator here because my moderation abilities and judgment are dependable. As always, if you find the actions of myself or any other Moderator on Smashboards to be objectionable, please head over to forum support where an Administrator will hear your grievances. I don't expect you to have much success, though; as a moderator of some time, I knew it'd be best to clear this policy with the administration ahead of time. We're all on the same page here

And I realize this discussion will also be silenced because all who question the supreme ruler (self-proclaimed anarchist) of project m are silenced.

I know playing George Orwell is really fun, and I hate to break it to you, but the title "Anarchy" is derived from the cute anime girl in my avatar. Her name is Anarchy Panty. It's not some hidden, deeper self-proclamation from which to derive author intent.
