Nooby et al,
Here is the copy of my PM to RSH yesterday evening:
-----------------------------------------------
From: Jasper
To: RSH
Posted: Yesterday, at 22:14
Subject: How to install .pet and combine .sfs files
Hi RSH,
I write because I do Not understand what sfs files have got to do with your thread which seems to be about pets.
I don't need a personal reply - I merely wondered if you may want to amend your thread's title.
My regards
-----------------------------------------------
I regard my response to his reply as innocuous, inoffensive and not unhelpful and RSH is welcome to publish that as well.
Doubtless, many have enjoyed his puplet. I apologise to those who will miss his work, but I had no idea my PMs could have had that effect.

Ho-hum...
I've wiped my Lazy528 CD-RW, and deleted its pupsave file.
Just as well I have lots of other Puppies to use...
And their creators don't all do the same as RSH.

Dear RSH
I'm finding you one of the most positive, dedicated, creative and helpful members on this forum.
Is it worth to quit sharing such interesting project..?
Please consider that there are many members who appreciate your work and ideas.
It's just a suggestion, please don't feel pressured, I'll respect your every choice...but hopefully you'll change your mind.
Take care & Greetings!

Although i never used your puplet i am sorry to hear you feel this way RSH as it is clear from reading your posts that you put a lot of work into and take a lot of pride in LazY Puppy.
Deving is quite often a thankless task but that doesn't mean there are not people out there happily enjoying what you have created - by removing all downloads you are cutting these folks off.
I can only speak from personal experience but i find this forum to be one of the most friendly and helpful about - perhaps take a few days break to think about your options before chucking the towel in.

While i respect the right of a developer to withdraw their creation, i nevertheless respect even more the right of everyone to have access to open source software. Therefore, i would be willing to put up a link to mirror LazY Puppy. Not out of spite in any way towards RSH, but rather to accomodate those who really appreciate the puplet and newcomers who might want to use it. Please do reply back, and if it appears that the interest is there, i will make LazY pup available for download at an alternative location.

Was it because you felt people expected too much of you, or because of their attitude?
remind anyone who demands something that you is volunteer here, any work is the result of good will.
if people want a feature they need to do it themselves, or offer something worthwhile in return
thanks for all your hard work any how

Thanks to everybody sharing their views.
RSH, many love you here so let it take the time
you need to feel better and think about all
the joy that comes from sharing with friends.
This confirms my take on the PUG that if one
put too much demands on Devs they can get
tired of the whole thing. I know this from my own
bad effect on many of the current Devs. I where
too much at them all the time. So good that
so many of you support a friendly Puppy forum.

Dear RSH,
can I second stu90's, SFR's and nooby's sentiments and TLM's move to preserve your fabulous efforts: please take some time to reconsider your position to a minority element and don't cut yourself off from us silent majority. Please stick around. As Aitch frequently notes, Developers are a rare breed and the loss of your enthusiasm and expertise will not only detract from all the hard work and passion you've put into your pupplet, but also impact those of us noobs running into problems with our own projects. May LazYrus rise again,
With Warmest Regards

Sorry to see you go, I feel bad, I just joined and am eager to start learning and in time would like to build my own Puppy.
I am sure this can be settled, your work speaks for itself.
Stick around

Hello to all and thank you very much for your (mostly) kind words.
i do need a few days to finish my actual work and then i will reply to all this posts (there is surely something to say about)
Just one Information:
All files at mediafire are still available. So every user who did download LazY Puppy is still able to download all the sfs files of LazY Puppy. These links are implemented in the QuickInstall (icon on desktop).
For those users with the new iso (downloaded at smokey01.com) i will set the links to my mediafire directories at first post.

Nooby,
To answer your original query of whom to avoid~just read some of the posts above. These are but a few...
Mods--Please delete my account, I am tired of the bad attitudes here as well.
Thank you.

" I am tired of the bad attitudes here as well. "
""""""""""""
A lot of people round here could do with a humour transplant.
While you are all crying like girls let us remember a
little token Puppy History.
Barry Kauler started with nothing.
370 kms from Perth in virtually a desert.
A one man band who developed this from scratch.
How many times would he have wanted to throw the towel in?
Hard!!! You little fretters wouldn't know hard if it kicked you.
No money...shitty dialup....the Puppy name was hated.
Driving to Perth a couple of times a month to upload.
Not much help...just himself...and then the significance of what
he was doing started to bring in some helpers....believers....
slowly a team of greats like >> mu etc.
The early Puppy heroes.
Not ingrates who delete files and posts.
I would doubt that you would ever see a terse post from mu.
IT'S Called >>> Perserverence.
Today being Australia Day I salute you >>> Barry.
You are a genius....a great Aussie...
unassuming, tolerant, hard working...doing it for your own pleasure.
But mate you are a wonderful bloke.
And it still all works..........GREATttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
BK had one hissy fit.....tired out.
Fair enough....and he took a break.
Get it.... >>>>>>>>> take a break.
Don't hit the delete button Pissants.
Enjoy the other Linux sloth....good luck.
And hey! but if you want to go back to Windows type up
eXperience..and maybe win somewhere in the search.
I won't post links.
He made Micro XP....99 mbs installed.
And Win 7 that's about 2 gigs minus the pagefile.
Just over 700 mbs for the setup files.
Not Puppy....but the bloke MS should have employed.
Instead of delighting us with Vista.
See yas .............Chris.

I guess I lack humor. I rather have ten crying girls than
one male Bully that roar like a Lion or bark like a Wolf.
