It seems to me that your biggest gripe with making SA-MP open source is that somehow you'll lose what you've created over these years. What you must realize is that this community is not geared toward getting rid of what you've created as a team. We wouldn't be here if it weren't for your contributions. But now in 2019 with your contributions at an utter standstill, you have to understand that most of us haven't even given you a thought until you made this absurd decision. You refer to the SA-MP team as 'we' in your reply, but frankly I don't know who 'we' is anymore, who else is on board with you? If you want recognition moving forward for what you've done, perhaps make the correct choice and don't take back what you've given to us. "If it's not broken, don't fix it". There's nothing wrong with the model system, it hasn't drastically changed SA-MP as we know it. The fundamental server ideas are still running as they were before, simply with more options with regards to how users can enjoy this platform. I can say with near certainty, that if you go forward and remove custom models, you're going to bury this entire project and in turn take away the pass time of many. But maybe burying SA-MP is what you're after, it seems that you're genuinely throwing in the towel (which is fine, I get it, you've been working on this for over a decade).
In short, do the right thing and leave things how they are now. Everyone (including yourself) knows that after you push this next update, we won't hear from you for an indefinite period of time. I (and I'm sure many of us) would much rather you leave us with 0.3DL and never update this project again, rather than continue to make attempts to butcher what has treated us so well for all these years.
Thank you.
