Whaaat?! I spent time dreaming up and drawing those designs. The second design was my very last post in the forum and final gift to the Helix community. Gift stolen
wwwDOTdropboxDOTcom/sh/cokfcl49nrjnmjo/AAAANk3k2TdfZ2kH8CG3jKYWa (go to Bike Stuff folder, it'll be obvious which files)
The entire thread was deleted out of spite? Did Minitrue just make me an Unperson? Freddy Kruger, St. Nick….well you can add another metaphor...Big Brother. Absolutely no information other than allowed by the Inner Party. Why such secrecy to backers (people who support you and not just financially either)?
If a lot of my posts that backers found useful and thankful for have gone down the Memory Hole, then there is an atmosphere of fear and conformity to Ingsoc in the backers' forum now.
In defense, I can only say one had to strike a balance between what is in the interest of backers and respecting privacy. I drew a line between selective facts which I think backers (as investors) are entitled to while withholding other Helix business related matter judged unnecessary, irrelevant or too proprietary, and certainly all personal stuff.
Weigh the transgression, if perceived that way, with all the other stuff I did out of good will for the Helix project and community. Look at the big picture!

Gibsonsean, Jonesandrew or other backer, what about my farewell address to fellow backers ending with the live long and prosper Vulcan salute?
