General Forum?

[Jodo Kast]

This is a general forum, I thought I could post what I want here.

Why was my thread closed?  I'm not talking about my game but General B.S.  If my thread was closed for no other reason then "it wasn't liked" what's the point?

Thanks for the clarification.

Because everything you post tends to start a flamewar.

General doesn't mean you can post any crap.   According to your profile you are 29, if that's true you should have maturity enough to let your argument go now.  It's over.
Just get on with making your game and come back in a years time with an awesome remake, that should end any silly attacks you have to deal with.

I don't give a shit if it turns into a flame war.  It's well contained.

I spray the crowd frequently with foam that puts out fires.

It's very difficult to get feedback from you people.  It seems, just as I want to update the website, my thread is closed.  Seems sadistic.

I like sadistic... but I want feedback. So I'll add a shoutbox to the website.

We do. Which is why your threads keep getting locked.

What do you want feedback on?  You've hardly shown anything... all we've seen is some characters, the characters look posery, and for me personally that's a bad thing.  I'd recommend making the game in 2d if at all possible. (that was some feedback)

If you had more to show people perhaps they would be able to give you more feedback.

This is generally a very good place to get criticism on your games, you're just not giving anyone a chance now. (although it's obviously not all your fault in your game thread)

[Jodo Kast]

Well shoutbox is down when I checked it, but it will be up soon.

Let's avoid making AGSforums upset with our flamewar.  It's going to be cuz you guys have good ideas making games and I have my own and other people have theirs.

Besides making games for a frickin' living, I do have time for fun.  If you want to flame me publically, go to http://www.cc42.com/phpBB2/groupcp.php?g=3&start=0 click on BH Jodo Kast and let it rip!

Hi Mr Kast.

My name is Layabout. I am one of the regulars around here.

I don't want to start a fight or anything, but why do you like flaming people? It says in your profile that you supposedly 29. You are the most mature 29 year old I have ever met. Do you know what sarcasm is Mr Boner? I know 15 year olds who are more mature than you.

You claim that you make games for a living. This statement for me is hard to believe. I thought people had to be somewhat intelligent to make commercial games, and from the sound of your alleged TechDemo, it seems you don't even have the faintest idea of what a tech demo is! Why is this? Obviously game creators would create a tech demo to test the engine they are creating, but this is something you didn't do, as CJ did.

Here is some feedback for you Mr Ass Grass, why don't you LISTEN to people's suggestions, as that is what FEEDBACK is for! Other people giving you idea's on how to best create this game, distribute this game, advice, collywobble or whatever! Feedback is USELESS if you IGNORE it!!

Thanks,

Pirate Jack

"My experience posting here about game making has been great! You have all been helpful answering my technical questions and promotional questions."

So... show us a little respect. If the moderators say that a thread is closed... IT IS CLOSED! Don´t come back crying as a baby because your thread has become a flame war. Sometimes threads are locked not by the fault of the person who starts it, don´t take it in a so personal way (But in this case you had all the numbers, IMHO).

And accept the words of wisdom of DG MacPhee.

if having pointless flame wars is your idea of fun, please do go to that other forum and have them there. this may be a general discussion forum, but surely it's for actual discussion and not childish bickering.

[Chicky]

jodo, ive never had anything against you, i even welcomed you to the forum. but could you please be nice on our forum, ocassionaly swearing does occor but swearing at or about people doesnt.

We would apreciate it if you had more respect for our forum, remember its a free forum and system set up by a kinda man, Chris didnt have to make AGS or release it on the net. But he did and we really respect that.

so we'd apreciate it if you took a different tone.

Hehehe what a typo

[Jodo Kast]

WAAA Flame Wars.

WAAA Flame Wars.

Get these guys some bottles!!

My favorite line from you Flame War Specialists was:
"Do you know what sarcasm is Mr Boner?"

I couldn't find anything in the test for new users about Flame Wars.  Flame Wars aren't illegal if I'm reading this right.

DGMcPhee broke the rules with this one:13. You feel the need to reply to a thread, but you don't really have anything to contribute - what should you do?
Just reply with a smiley or 'zing'.
Reply saying "I don't really have anything to add but I thought I'd better post".
Don't reply at all.

[Privateer Puddin']

I'd say there isn't a written rule about Flame Wars because the majority of the time, we don't have any problem makers.

Jodo,

  You got banned at AGDI; you're well on your way to getting banned here...... just chill out and work on your game.  You could always open your own forum - ezboards lets anyone have one, link it to your page, and have your feedback and soapbox there..... people are just getting angry, and it's not worth your time or their time to be arguing about all this.
