How is it raping the community of its creative thinking? If anything its trying to encourage a more creative slant by telling people to foget basing stuff on existing technologies that are not compatible. It matters not how far ahead in research the RA2 timeline could be in any given technology. The rail gun is a poorly workable biological delivery system and so much more effective alternatives would be more extensively researched and developed to the point that the railgun would be ignored and obsolete as such a delivery. The rail gun exists to fire a high velocity kinetic round to smash a target to bits, not for precision delivery of a fragile biological agent. Just sticking two words together isn't creative. Call it a "mutagenic configurator" or something like that that does not confuse with any real world technology and gives suome suggestion as to what it does. That took me all of three seconds to think of, with some more research into the types of technology that were involved and by maybe using a thesaurus, I'm sure I could come up with even better ones. I'll drop it now, but it annoys me that people don't really even give much thought to the more subtle areas of a modding like making good storylines that fit, comming up with good meaningful names for units (the "myriad" unit has a good name in DeeZire for instance) and thinking more about how a unit will fit into a sides normal line up of technology if it is additional to the RA2 story.
