I have had a rather kickass piece of art made starring me (Tom Baker, actually)...

AND...

Seriously, right?

Rosella: "Hi guys! The new King's Quest fan game is coming out soon! Is everyone as excited as I am? Let's hype it up!"

ManicMatt inserts a lighthearted picture of Doctor Who playing King's Quest and falling in the water, being a scene that has been spoken of fondly by others.

Rosella: "DAMN YOU ALL! BURN IN HELL, YOU UNCULTURED SWINE! YOUR MOTHERS SEW SOCKS THAT SMELLLLL!!!!!!!"

... and I'm the one getting flamed? Think again, cracker.

HAHAHA!!!! Thanks Esper, you make me laugh!

Hold it- kings quest isn't being made with AGS? I assumed it was....

played your game Esper, and left a comment!

i think its quite obvious mordalles and esper weren't serious to begin with, just having a bit of fun, because seriously its quite obvious what the princess rosella was doing. And it was also quite obvious petteri was too joking.

And yes, every moment in KQ is a rip, it doesn't take a genius to put them together. Every freaking fairy tale is just completely stolen, yes theft darn it people. Think of a fairy tale and they have it. Sure lots of stories are ripped, but roberta just went overboard and took eveything.

[EDIT] yaksplit: I also liked playing most of my fairy tales in KQ when i was a child. I am just saying, its morally unoriginal and pretty lame, BUT i still liked playing itÃ,Â

You declared your "war" before Pablo's post, and then you go off at him about it.

Do I see a contradiction here?

Mordalles made a joke. Pablo didn't get, so he went off on Mordy FIRST!!!!!!!!!!! And it's happened before. Babar you too didn't get it. Those who started the attacks should stop being so immature.

ManicMatt · Sat 07/01/2006 20:12:28

*grabs Mordelles and Pablo by the ears*

Stop it! Both of you! (And Mordy I laughed at your joke)

look! You're making that little girl over there cry! look at her big eyes welling up to see you two bickering. Don't argue! Think of the children!

because if you thought i were being serious when i said "this means war" then you just assume stuff and ure pretty stupid.

Did I ever quote that "this means war" post? No. I was never talking about that because I understood the joke.

You have all rights to be pissed off because I called your acting immature. I did have a reason though because the way I see it, your post was a bit immature... This one that is, the one I quoted:

Quote from: Mordalles on Sat 07/01/2006 11:15:47
although, it gave me an idea. once my game is finished, and I'm about to release it, I'm going over to kq9 forums and start my own hype thread there all about mordy. and i advise everyone else around here do the same. they shouldnt have a problem with it. they started it.

That's what I was talking about in my post... And It really doesn't look like a joke to me. And if it was, it lacks smileys...

And immature acting continues:

Quote from: Mordalles on Sat 07/01/2006 19:47:24
lastly, now i just might go and post on the kq9 forums.

That might be a joke though, but since you declared before that you are never going to joke again, I'm taking it that you're serious...

Anyway, I have said what I have to say and will happily bury the war axes now, if you will too. Thank you for taking your time to read this.

Peace and love

Hah!

esper · Sat 07/01/2006 20:26:55

Seriously, guys, STFU. CJ himself said to cut it out.

I started out joking, but like CJ said, I took it a bit too seriously. I don't really TAKE BACK anything I said, except my coments to Petteri. When Pett responded "God, I'm never making a joke again," I instantly knew I had been wrong to attack him, but, because of the pride issues I mentioned, I couldn't take it back. I do now. Petteri, I'm sorry.

Pablo... You mentioned something about "acting" like Mordy and I were when you were 11. Unless you were lying in your profile, that would only have been five years ago. It's fourteen for me. I'm normally the first person to stand by not judging people because of their age, but just a thought: maybe you shouldn't be doling out the term "immature." Maybe you're right... Maybe you're wrong. Stop it anyway.

ManicMatt: I aim to please. Thanks for comenting on my game. I wonder how many people are going to go snipe the ratings on it now after this little conversation?

Buloght, I think you're the only one who gets it.

Babar: Thanks. I take that as "apology accepted." I didn't mean to be a tool.

So let's relax. Everyone who was posting their opinions, CJ said enough is enough. Everyone who posted to back me up, I don't need it. I was wrong. Maybe ideologically I was right, but in the way I carried it out I was very wrong. I'm sorry to anyone I offended.

...Except Rosella.

Mordalles · Sat 07/01/2006 20:39:32

cheers. pablo, u make ureself sound immature.

Heh, I promised myself not to post here again... And what am I doing now?

So basically you're saying I'm automatically immature because I'm quite young? Yeah, sometimes I really am! I can be very annoying and say stupid things and I even know it! But hey, at least I didn't send Mordalles a PM saying he's stupid and doesn't have a life. That's about how Mordalles PMed me. I could quote it here, but I won't since it could be considered as immature acting ._.

But I haven't noticed myself posting anything very immature in this thread. Correct me if you think I have. And I apologize in advance if I have.

But the most biggest apology goes to Mordalles, who's the one who really got offended by me. I still don't see why, because the only thing I said was that your acting was a bit immature IMO. Then you guys started flaming me.

Well, sorry anyway. Some people that know me well here as well knows that I'm not the kind of person who likes to fight with other people. I just express my opinions in a very... uh, aggressive way, I think.

hey that's the only one i hadÃ,Â

[EDIT] okay okay, i apologise too. KQ wasn't all that ripped only, i had a lot of fun playing them, maybe i was a bit harsh.

esper · Sat 07/01/2006 21:14:08

Mordy, I don't know if you're reading this or not, but don't be an idiot. People like you and respect you around here, even if it's only been a little while since you've been posting. You made a good game, you sprite awesomely, and you do make good jokes and are a worthwhile poster here on the site. This isn't worth getting all crazy about and throwing in the towel. I, like Pablo, argue a whole lot. I've argued with Pablo before. I hope he isn't such a moron that he bears a grudge against me and hates me because of it, and I certainly am not that way toward him. There have probably been a couple places we agreed with each other, or thought something that the other said was hilarious.

The point is, this isn't the real world. Every thread is a new playing field, because everybody has different opinions, and when provoked, it is the nature of the beast to respond in a heated way. Everyone has opinions, and will argue them to the hilt. When you are with real people, this is probably not the case, primarily because if you're right (or if you're wrong) real people have a tendency to bear a grudge, if not kick your ass. On the internet, we aren't real people, but little blue boxes full of text. People feel more free to argue their points when the chances of recompense aren't so high. That is why people like forums so much. The next little blue box that comes up might be funny, or sad, or happy, and you respond in a completely different manner to it.

Pablo: like I said, I don't ever condemn people because of their age. I used to volunteer with teenagers. They aren't "teenagers." They're people. I'm good friends with them. Screw that "mentor" thing. They don't need it. They can form their own opinions and live life the way they want to do it. I quit doing that because I felt like the people I was doing it for were forcing me to treat them like non-entities. I remember being a teenager. when I turned 20, I didn't suddenly become a real person. We all have a tendency to jump on Flukeblake, saying "he's just a kid," but he's a person, and when I realized I was being an idiot I started treating him like one.

I'm not going to condescend to you because you're young. I'm going to condescend to you because you're arguing with me. Which hopefully is done now. I meant nothing personal. Like I just said, everyone on the internet has opinions, and I was just exercising my right to have mine, as you were doing with your right to yours. Truce?

EVERYBODY, TRUCE?

Raggit · Sat 07/01/2006 22:25:51

I don't get the whole fairytale/theft argument. Nobody ever claimed that those ideas were property of Roberta Williams.

In KQ2, you can occasionally see the Bat Mobile come racing out of a cave, but nobody claims that Roberta Williams stole from Batman. That's because it was a gag. Just for noveltie's sake.
The incorporation of fairy tales into the games made them novel, in the sense that yakspit said, you could interact with childhood stories.

Nikolas · Sun 08/01/2006 08:06:06

:'(

I was off-line for the most of the day, yesterday, and lost most of this thread... Shame on me!

*Nikolas slaps himself*

I promise that I'll never do it again.

Favorite KQ moment (it's time I did mention that): The intro from KQ VI! Amazing, especially the part where the camera goes around Alexander in the room, with wonderfull midi music, and after that the storm and the ship... Amazing for that time! Wonderfull!

The game itself was.... ok.... but it did lack a lot of originality, something I'm always after no matter if it is music, game, film, book...

And I'm still waiting for Rosella to come back here and speak her mind a little over this beautifull thread...

Yes, but he's the one who's asking for peace in the last couple of pages.
But from a point of view, you are right. I certainly believe that the two members behind the largest posts in these forums are me and epser. I can only speak for my self. I like talking... And this way I hope to get more people talking to me. You can't expect someon to open up if you don't do it yourself now, can you?

esper · Sun 08/01/2006 13:52:12

Thanks for helping make my point for me, Nik.

I KNOW I was talking too much. I apologized for starting all the shit, and to everyone I offended. However, after the fact, it kept going. Rather than being me vs. everybody else, it became everybody else vs. the people who agreed with me (like Nik). Therefore, I was responsible for the continuing carnage and was trying to help quell what I had created. I had hoped that my post would be the last on the topic and we could move on with our lives.
