If it wasn't for AGS I'd never have met Ron Gilbert and therefore arranged to meet up with James but he never showed up so I whined at him a bit and we got talking and so if that hadn't happened we wouldn't be going out and I wouldn't be working as a games tester and I wouldn't be in Brighton right now and I wouldn't be a fraction as happy as I am right now.

I've had two bottles of KICK which is 44,000% of my RDA of vitamin B or something. and god knows what of caffeine. I'm still at work. I am seeing visions of this game. Every time I close my eyes, my thoughts are organised like troops, and I think in turn-based strategy mode. Holy crap.

Living alone isn't so bad.Ã,  You're the master of your domain.Ã,  There's nobody around to nag you about leaving your dirty clothes on the bathroom floor, or about cleaning your shaving scum out of the bathroom sink, or about leaving the toilet seat up... oh, yeh... you're a girl... Well, you know what I mean.

I don't have a problem with any of those things except shaving scum. Dude WTF. The two guys I live with... I mean, how do you get shaving scum not only ALL over the sink itself, but also on the TAPS? Jesus fucking christ.

What's the deal with Skype? Is it spyware free?

Maybe we're all trying too hard to make the forums agreeable and pleasant to all and instead promote anarchy?

Yeah that makes sense.

OMG MAN THERE IS A HOT GIRL WITH HIM.
OMG DUDE THAT IS TOTALLY MY MOM.
OMG LOL DUDE!

I don't think they're funny at all. Especially the one about the mother.

Yes this thread is quite ironic 

Like the self help guides for n00bs written by Monkey_06_05. Why did nobody tell that thread to fuck off?!?

The main thing that annoys me I guess is that it's two or three people that are doing it, and if they were dealt with then everything would be awesome around here. But they're not being dealt with, they're being tolerated and in the meantime are acting like jerks.

I'm not demanded decent discussions be started.

I'm suggesting that the ones that have been started aren't screwed up by a few select people.

July isn't a bad month for most forums. Because most forums wouldn't tolerate a lot of the idiots that hang around here. There is way too much tolerance.

flukeblake just because somebody else mentioned your name doesn't mean I was referring specifically to you by the way.

PS. DG's posts rule.

Probably not, though.

I think just because it's a general discussion forum, shouldn't mean idiots are allowed turn it into a cesspit of stupidity.

I makes me sad, there are a lot of very creative and intelligent people on these forums, being overshadowed by morons.

Hi all,

I noticed recently that the forums are becoming unbearable to read. I do like most of the people here and value your opinions, maybe even like you. However, there're a lot of people, not even just newbies, who are making things really fucking juvenile and unpleasant.

Not mentioning any names, but for instance you might have a perfectly good thread and suddenly a few people will just start randomly going off topic and doing things like '*monkeypirate1919191 runs into a wall, gets up, runs off, omg lol!'. It's like some form of written slapstick comedy, and it's not funny. It's just annoying. It's not just that, there's a lot of generally stupid and pointless stuff.

Maybe the rest of you like that kind of thing, I don't know. But anyway, it's always good to discuss things. So let's discuss this. The level of intelligence is being dragged down.

That doesn't rhyme.

Also, I understand why CJ wouldn't want to implement 3D blah blah blah, but the argument "erm n00bs will make shit-looking games with it" and other similar ones are just silly and you should stop saying that. N00bs make shit looking games anyway.

I'd love to see 3D character support in AGS, but I understand that it'd be a lot of work for CJ.

Mark: what do I do once I get to London? If I get lost I might die, and that would screw up my entire summer.

CJ: Gee thanks, I'll make up a set of in-jokes of my own just for you guys  ¬ ¬ are you leaving sunday night or monday morning, or when, CJ?

Argh okay sorry about the change of plans and all. I shall be there not for the first weekend of Brittens, but for the week after that. So I might only catch a glimpse of CJ and some others, but I shall get to 'rub knees' with all the foreigners and all the cool UK'ers.

No really, jeez. Although, isn't it?

No seriously though. Jeez.

Although.

I'm not turning up randomly unless nobody else drops out!!!

JUST KIDDING!

Well not really actually.

I must consult my magic ball.

Okay here's the thing somebody pointed out that I can't NOT go.

But I won't be officially in it from day 1 to day 7.

I'll just turn up.

In conclusion I will be there just not 100% of the time.

Uhm.

This news just in.

Can't make it to Brittens.

I'm sooo fucking sorry, jesus.

I feel bad.

I can't believe serious discussion ensued from fluke's original post in this thread.

I DID spice things up.

I threatened to start a union.

I'm at work and I'm reallllly bored. There are no customers in the store. I'm looking straight across at a display of video games. They're all war games. I've never seen so many war games in my life. They probably didn't have this much of a World War II theme going on during World War II.

Okay there IS actually one customer. She's been in here an hour. She keeps asking me trivial questions about things, and then repeating herself and her life story. I'm desperately trying to avoid her.

Why are there so many world war II games? It's making time pass slower. And they're all brown. WTF?

Omg, did you know Chris Jones is 68% of fictional characters created by pre-teen wannabe writers!??

Not to mention 12% of the actual world population!
