Please don't insult me on the internet.

I never insulted you directly, i insulted your post.

A post that he is the author of! If you created a game and I said it's "stupid and poorly made", would you not be personally insulted?

I realize the question wasn't directed at me, but I shall pretend it was:

Not if that game was Palette Quest.

Thanks for all your feedback,
I am now conforted by the fact that I was stupid to think of my name as being derogatory.
I can't believe there has been so many replies in such a short period of time.
I must say that Limpingfish you are still my hero too, and that was the case even before you officially retracted one of your statements.Ã,  I am concerned however of your love for the British being greater than your love for the arousal of your genitalia (could not include the term enormous as there is noone to support your claim).
Thanks also to Babar for your words of advice:

There is only one point of importance: Make your game! And since it's your first, don't make it too huge!

I guess I have no excuse now...

Is there anyone around here who can support your claim that you actually are British?
I think this whole thread has all been one big mis-direction and you are actually using the term 'Brit' in its derogatory context but now, no-one will suspect!!!

Crafty... very crafty.

The British should all go back to that dismal industrial wasteland they like to call a "country" and drink themselves to death, and the sooner the better.

Nope.

Skyfire1, Helm's post was not stupid, your was mildly insulting, and your insult was directed at Helm.

There is no parallel between the name 'JimtBrit' and the name you suggested, it's a false analogy. The term 'Brit' is not an inherently derogatory term simply because it is used in a derogatory manner by Irish nationalists.

And on topic, I don't find the name to be offensive at all. I do wonder about the 't' in the middle. Are we to read the name as 'Jim t'Brit', a Yorkshire take on 'Jim the Brit'?

Please don't. As entertaining as it would be to watch the ensuing equivalent of a "cripple fight", let's not turn this pettiness into an issue of Lilliputian magnitude.

Jimtbrit's question has been answered, so we should move on to more pressing offensive topics.

Actually, my only attempt to continue a discussion in PM with skyfire was quite pointless, so I wouldn't recommend it...

That's because you wouldn't explain the reason behind why you flagged your profile to male even though I consistently answered all of your questions. You even went as far as to spamming my email inbox with gay porn.

That's the exact opposite of what happened, except that nobody spammed anybody else with gay porn.

Come on Skyfire, what is up with the CONSTANT lying? You seem to lie in nearly every post. Seriously, what is up with that?

Tell you what, why don't you post the PM in which I apparently sent you Gay Porn? I'll be interested to see if you try to make something up...

From what I've seen of you, you seem to hang around making blatantly stupid remarks, insulting other members, and then lying and editing your posts too look less offensive. Charming person.

You can deny all of it and I really don't care one way or another. The point is that you have a serious problem with admitting your faults.

Since when have I done this? You keep on accusing me of editing my post to them look less offensive but when I ask you when I've done these things I don't get a answer because it's bullshit and everyone knows it.

Glad you got the private argument going finally, now don't let us disturb
