Title: Don't Judge People
Post by: TheCheese33 on Mon 26/06/2006 16:22:10
I am sick and tired of being judged for what I write on these forums. I tried to be nice and thankful when people gave me advice on Indigo Prophecy, and they took it as sarcasm! Why can't you just trust a person who's honestly writing nice posts? I mean, I know I've made some mistakes in the past, but can't you get over it? The AGS community is suppossed to be built around the principles of showing your work to others, lending each other a helping hand, and talking about other things. It's NOT about being selfish, dissing one another, and being inconsiderate!

So next time, when I (or anyone else) writes something honest and nice, don't think we're being sarcastic! Instead, know that we're actually being appreciative, and not cruel. Thanks for reading this.

You should post this in the original thread instead.

It's hard to tell someone's intentions by just text. This is why we have emoticons.

Besides, you kind of overdid it with this:

I concur, LimpingFish is totally awesome, where's the sarcasm at??? ;)

Maybe it sounded like sarcasm, but it wasn't intended to sound like that. Sorry if I overdid it. And LimpingFish, I really meant nothing bad by it. Sorry if I offended you.

well you could have just posted in the Indigo Prophecy forums where it's more likely that somebody has actually played it and can give you advice, it seems a lot of people just use this forum as a means to be lazy instead of finding out stuff for themselves either through google or a game's official website.
i mean just the other day i wanted to know some stuff about magnetic levitation, so i visited wikipedia.
then the day before that i wanted a list of words most commonly spelled wrong, so i checked on google, and on the same day i wanted to know what people thought about Sensible Soccer 2006, so i visited the Codemasters forums and read a few posts.
so now i know how to build a maglev train, spell reccomend and that Sensible Soccer 2006 isn't really worth buying if you're interested in reliving the glory days and that it also doesn't have any online multiplayer, instead of being all annoyed because i asked on an adventure game making forum.
