If you ask me, the small "i hate vets" faction are just jealous. they think they merited being a vet/pt. theyre probably elite-mad-skillz types too (and they let you know it..)
However: I have seen some pts/vets (and tbh, mostly vets rather than pts) lording their status over non-pts/vets on several servers. this _will_ make people hate them, and tar all the rest with the same brush <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> its much the same thing as Clanners Vs Pubbers. some pubbers hate clanners for being elitist, and some clanners hate pubbers for being skill-less and a waste of bandwidth. again, this is not universal, there are more friendly clanners than unfriendly ones in my experience, but its the bad apples that spoil the whole barrel.
Personally, I think you all did a great job, and the vet haters can SUYF.
Because it is easier for angst-filled teen-agers to tear something down than to constructively contribute. No other reason. Don't take it personal. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
