I'm not quite sure what Increator is writing in response to, but it seems good enough advice. I wish I knew that when I was without vehicular transport for a couple of months...no idea how I'd have jogged in a big overcoat, though
.
But seriously, what is up with all this Icey hatred?
Honestly, I don't really know Icey, I haven't played any of his games, or any of the games inspired by his characters, and I neither love, nor hate, nor overly care for OSD, and my only knowledge of him seems to be from what he says in these forums.
Monkey, as you say, the thread started off with a reasonable enough purpose, but then why were you one of the first to jump on his back and start gnawing (no hatred to you, monkey, but I find it funny considering the quote in your signature
)?
I mean, discounting Icey's somewhat quirky writing style (and honestly, in a forum with so many international members, I've seen worse. It may be "funny" that his is bad considering he's from an english speaking country, but... is that reason to badger him even more?).
His request wasn't SO far out. People here collaborate very often to play online games. We have civ games, minecraft, we played trackmania, etc. Yet in some bizarre subversion of the concept of "trolls", the first relevant or even related response to the original point of his topic was somewhere in the middle of the 2nd page.
I'm certainly not "passionate" about online gaming, and while I have P64 installed on my computer, I'm not overly fond of either Mariokart or Super Smash brothers, I PROBABLY wouldn't join in on playing those, but I'm sure others would have fun. I've had my fun playing other online games here with other AGSers.
Perhaps someone interested could set up a server so that some like-minded people could enjoy themselves.
