(Morphic8 this isn't exactly directed at you, but I have heard entirely too much on this topic... and this had to be said)
Answer, because it is not their job to "please" us. However I feel it is our job to show thanks and please them. These people are truely incredible.
Think about it. Huge companies and corporations create subtitles for this stuff all the time, and they take months, in some cases, years to complete a job. Most of the time it is not as good as these few outstanding individuals.
I mean, I guess they don't do much in reality... They only get the raws, use their own networks and equipment, use their obviously large knowledgebase, take tedious time to create a flawless quality, perfectly timed product... Oh, and that something that is mentioned a lot, but not nearly enough... they do it for free, when in reality it has probably cost those individuals several thousand dollars, and hundreds of hours of work time, just to start and do it once...
Do they have a choice in that? Yup, they sure do. They could....
A: Continue as they are.
B: Stop all together.
C: Start their own buisness and make money doing this... (for the person/people saying they couldn't do that. The underground around here is pretty large, and having a fanbase to buy off you loyally from the beginning is essencially the most important part. Licenses cost too much? They simply would need to go to an established company with their crew, and set up as an internal office for a cut... then go from there.)
To the other comments made about it taking longer, sometimes it does, but they postponed it because of whiners.
Anyways... back to the whole "pleasing" thing. I don't care how long it takes, they spend a lot of money, and take a lot of their (probably very limited) free time to give us a product that is top notch, for no fee whatsoever. To me, that is more than pleasing their fanbase... So before anyone else says LE needs to please or try to do things quicker not minding the people that annoy them all while using their bandwidth. Try to keep in mind exactly what they are doing, and realize, that if that isn't enough to please you, you probably don't deserve being given their gifts in the first place.
I've said it before, and this post has said it again... But... Thank you LE, for ALL, not just this single series that you have given us. If there is an award for doing this sorta thing, you certainly deserve it. Give yourself a pat on the back!
