I didn’t mean to offend, despite what all Negative1 himself has done to upset the community, I didn’t support–and was not trying to promote–the idea of taking away credit from him. My suggestion was aimed purely at the project title itself of “Silver Screen Edition”, and not removing credit for such an important contributor. I thought that tweaking how it is referred to would help both with its acceptance on the spleen and distance it from the extreme notoriety at large and the infamy that followed shortly after. Additionally, I wasn’t sure what you, the former team, or the community would consider more respectful: modifying and releasing new things under an old name with an original member no longer associated, or to use a new name that doesn’t specifically trivialize the relevance of the original release which that person did have a say in. Anyway, it is your call and there is certainly no arguing against Negative1’s influence and contributions to the project, so you should be free to honor and give credit as you see most fitting. There’ll be no argument from me. Moving along.
