How does anyone even spout sentences like that as the first sentence in a post, and then just go on a completely different tangent?

I long for the days when obviously mentally ill people got help and treatment, instead of just a blog  Although I'm not sure when those days were exactly... As for dsmart's Steam forum posts, one of the things that strikes me is the outright hostility towards his potential playerbase! Don't like something about this game? Then fuck you and your kind, I don't need you anyway! You're just too stupid to play my awesome game, fuck off! How is that approach seen by anyone as an asset to any company at all? Are employers in the games industry really that jaded/clueless?

Lack of appreciation would be my guess.
Also, by the subtext, everywhere on the internet asking him to PLEASE GOD STOP.

I know I shouldn't ask but what prompted that insanity? If I had to guess, I'd say part of it is because of the suspension from the Escapist forums that he mentioned. The other thing is that his retarded posting over at Lum's has hit a fever pitch recently ( one thread a couple weeks back actually had to be locked largely because of him) and he's probably starting to realize that shit's not going to end well if he keeps fucking up every single comment thread. To a lesser extent this "it's not me, it's them" attitude is the same thing he pulled when he got banned from here. Now that he's pretty much being shunned by two other communities he really has to double down on the self-delusion, complete with quotes from Albert Einstein, MLK, Buddha, Gandhi, and Oscar Wilde. Because we don't appreciate the gift of maturity and knowledge he is trying to bestow upon the Internet.

I vaguely remember Geldon being annoying before, did he have a psychotic break or something?

He ramped it up to epic levels, basically went from being annoying to being annoying in every thread and then taking people telling him to shut up as some orchestrated campaign to silence his genius which he continued to take to every thread on the fucking forum. In a nutshell.

He's not insane because we're obsessed with him, we're obsessed with him because he's insane. It's hard to argue with free entertainment.

It's a bit of an identity crisis for me, because about 27 of my first 33 years of life were spent thoroughly dedicated to the hobby of being a computer gamer, at the expense of just about everything else. It was not necessarily time wasted.
Good to know that as a 6 year old, he was thoroughly dedicated to the hobby of being a computer gamer.  edit - oh my fucking god. I just skimmed the rest of that post (I'd just assumed that it was the first ever post on his blog from the way that it started like an "introduction to me and why I am great" and hadn't bothered reading any further until I read more of this thread). All I can do is agree. Serious mental health issues.

I read the entire thing and he sounds to me like he's someone in a bit of pain who could really benefit from not using the internet for a while.
To sum up his post and put it crudely, he's finally realised that people really don't like it when you disagree with them but doesn't seem to have worked out where to go from there.

I was looking at the screens of the game the linked forum pertains to, my first thought is that Dmart hates vegetation. Then I saw one of the exceedingly few not-Dmart posts on the forum: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=933240It's flat.
Now im not game dev, but would it be all to hard to add some sort of generated terrain? Forests, roads, a hill or two.
That's really all I want, the game just seems bland without it. Not gonna happen. Read this.
The planet terrain fits the premise of the game. Thats how it was designed. We don't want/need roads, forests or any of that. You can try ArmaAII if thats what you're looking for.
And its only flat in ONE area - desert zone. If you read posts by others who have in fact explored the game world, you'll see what they say. He also links to http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showpost.php?p=10805348 which is funny in the usual "Take a paying customers complaint and explain how it's their fault so deal with it" thing he does so well.

Flat, flat, flat and flat. Flat, flat, fl...oh look, a depression in the ground. And a floating city. Awesome. And ArmAII is probably a much much better game than his, so that's actually great advice. Granted I'm assuming a bit, but I'm guessing I'm not too far off. Edit: unfucked the last link.

While I can’t say that I respect your opinions – since you’re too inconsequential for me to ever care, let alone bat an eyelid – you are most certainly entitled to them. Awesome.

I feel sorry for Geldon, he's going to have an uphill battle trying to going to turn that thread into being all about him.
