Yea the idea for new replay system was great and I was excited when you said you were going to work on it. When I asked you what was happening with it or how development was going i just got ignored. No biggie, i just assumed you were too busy so after waiting a few months I talked with veteris about it and we spent quite some time creating it from scratch. If anything, that was progressing the site not hindering it . I did ask for the replay parser code that displays the replay chat from you since you figured it out and we didn't, about 2-3 times got ignored (assumed you were too busy or did not want to share it) and decided not to follow it up. Not a big deal, as you are a busy man! Same goes with the theme, was really happy to hear that you wanted to help re-design it and told you that you were more than welcome to create it on a demo site and i would move it over - as I added in a lot of custom coded stuff which would break the site instantly if just one line of code was out of place.
So yea, I dislike this notion of the site being "hindered by severe limitations" because it isn't, and its especially untrue since people know me and a few others have spent enormous amounts of time trying to progress it. Veteris / paperclip have done amazing work on the site and at no time did they ever ask for full admin control of the site or FTP access because it just isn't necessary. If your need for absolute control drives you to make another site that will inevitably split the community then so be it man, just don't you dare try to put it on me as the reason.
