Sounds like you are asking all the wrong people.

I for one, have never been asked by you for anything. Yet I suppose I'd fall into the umbrella category of "everyone" who is so selfish and/or greedy". Be careful before pissing on everyone, you might be burning your bridges.

One problem is a lot of the guys who were big into edits have long since left. Throughout my time here I have been met with a lot of generousity, and I have always had very little to trade, and I am not a "super editor" like ADM of FF.

Another problem is, hardly anyone believes in PIFs anymore, because they always broke down pretty quickly and the same generous people were stuck with being generous all the time. It is nice to be generous, but I can see some of these guys giving up on PIF after realizing how much of their personal money they are throwing away to people not willing to do the same for someone else. Some people have lifted a finger so many times before, they are done lifting fingers.

And finally, another issue is that it is just easier for most people to download this stuff and burn it on their own. I doubt there are even enough people still around interested in getting this stuff by mail to get a PIF going.

Also I am pretty sure when Ady's edit first came out, I read quite a lot of talk about PIF chains in his thread, so some people were doing it.

So, what are you looking for exactly? Just Ady's SW: Revisited?
