Wow, thought I was reading a "Fan Fiction" thread, then after reading for a have hour, later I realized it was post! Half of what you are saying I will be honest with you I just don't get.
"Modding"? If you were surrounded by only people who modded their XBOX....well you were all IDIOTS! You ruined the game for all of us.
Frankly that could have been a few different posts, not one massive diatribe. I'm sorry, but you really lost my interest when I found out you cheated the game and were not only unapologetic, but trying to make it seem like it was the "norm". Phssssfffft!
