The perfect MMO

Hey!  He ditched us!

[schild]

You bumped my sweet, sweet evidence of his lunacy to a previous page. Bleh.

[Signe]

I was helping.

[schild]

With?

[Signe]

Umm.  You know.  Stuff.  Like I always help.  With... umm... whatnot.

[Righ]

More beer. Just found out that it is being held across the street from where I will viewing the USA v Italy World Cup game. Pity, that!

There's always half-time.

[Cheddar]

Thanks for being nice. I wish you the best of luck on being an internet-traveling time capsule to 2001 instead of a writer for MPS.



That was taken about a year and a half ago. The internet never forgets. NEVER. I have about 50 more where that came from. Consider it a hobby.

fixed.

[schild]

See, now that's helping!

Wow, how much faster is 'exponentially' faster?

I mean, do you just go level e¹, level e², level e³?

THE PEOPLE MUST BE TOLD!

Also, in the interests of reducing the amount of stupid on this thread, I present a joke about exponentials....

The cocky exponential function e^x is strolling along the road insulting the functions he sees walking by. He scoffs at a wandering polynomial for the shortness of its Taylor series. He snickers at a passing smooth function of compact support and its glaring lack of a convergent power series about many of its points. He positively laughs as he passes |x| for being nondifferentiable at the origin. He smiles, thinking to himself, "Damn, it's great to be e^x. I'm real analytic everywhere. I'm my own derivative. I blow up faster than anybody and shrink faster too. All the other functions suck."

Lost in his own egomania, he collides with the constant function 3, who is running in terror in the opposite direction.

"What's wrong with you? Why don't you look where you're going?" demands e^x. He then sees the fear in 3's eyes and says "You look terrified!"

"I am!" says the panicky 3. "There's a differential operator just around the corner. If he differentiates me, I'll be reduced to nothing! I've got to get away!" With that, 3 continues to dash off.

"Stupid constant," thinks e^x. "I've got nothing to fear from a differential operator. He can keep differentiating me as long as he wants, and I'll still be there."

So he scouts off to find the operator and gloat in his smooth glory. He rounds the corner and defiantly introduces himself to the operator. "Hi. I'm e^x."

"Hi. I'm d / dy."

MPS did a lot of business from I heard/read from SWG from the Jedi wannabe's pre-patch09.  The whole economy felt like an exploit for awhile and they were there. 

[Slayerik]

This thread just makes me glad I was around when it was waterthread...

I mean, I still get azzraped on here once in a while but at least you guys can't throw that "you're 8 years behind" shit in my face! *flex*

  And that proves I exposed exploits?  Go back and read...  Find an exploit in my columns...

Hey!  He ditched us!

  LOL, I did not say I was leaving,(WTF would you guys play with?) just that I am concentraing my efforts elsewhere to respond to other comments/questions, as far as the article goes here, it is dead.  But I will still play with ya when I have a few minutes :)

[schild]

So, are you saying that if you wrote for a white supremacy magazine or some other equally morally corrupt place (like MPS) it shouldn't reflect on how people view you? I'm just wondering.

You're 8 years behind! As the shit-thrower, I should point out that I was only barely around in the Waterthread days and wasn't around before that. But I thought "WTF is this?", joined the dots to LtM, read up on catasses and car fires, and only THEN did I get myself azzraped.

Well, you are playing UO.  :-D

[Mongoose]

So, are you saying that if you wrote for a white supremacy magazine or some other equally morally corrupt place (like MPS) it shouldn't reflect on how people view you? I'm just wondering.

  So what you are saying is that if you live in the U.S. you are a capitalist pig that spills blood for oil?  Or if you live in Kentucky you are a hilljack that has no teeth and chews tobacco?  Or maybe you live in California, so of course you are an illegal immigrant from Mexico?  I know, maybe you have no life and spend the majority of time posting on a website, in the hopes of gaining some personal entertainment from trying to make others feel like smaller then you?  Come on lose the stereotypes and make a competent flame, belittlement, or whatever you are trying to do.  People should be judged for their actions, not their associations... 


  P.S.  I wonder how many ignorant people in the world would use "morally corrupt" to describe the U.S. in general.  I don't know I guess we could say that Clinton was "morally corrupt" for getting a BJ while in office and married?   Is abortion "morally corrupt"?  You are doing nothing more then stating an ignorant opinion, however you are entitled to it.  To you I guess, the world is flat...

[schild]

Well, since you asked me to outright flame you, OK. But remember, you asked for it.

You're a terrible writer with a 6th grade grasp of English. Your sentence structure is atrocious and your grammar skills are a wreck. You write for the bottom-feeding dreck on the internet because it's who will put up with your shit. You can ask anyone here, I don't think I've ever really gone off on someone like this, especially someone as innocuous with you. You're not a threat to anyone. You're just a naive little dick who was pointed here by Bruce who thought it would be fine to post a giant essay without reading up on the fact we had all of these ideas before any sort of diku-less future was even a glimmer in your eye. The fact that Bruce wouldn't put you on his site should have been reason enough for you not to pull that stunt over here.

I don't mind you sticking around and chatting, there's lots of things to say but there's also lots of things that no longer have to be said. But you said them and you're terribly bad at defending yourself. As such you find yourself at a fork in the road. You can go down one path and be a little whiny dick who goes around posting his senseless completely unoriginal ramblings in drive-by showings of what a douche he is OR you can read up on this entire little section of the internet and what has been written over the last two and a half years (for us, more for others) and maybe come up with some original thought. But coming back around for a chance to stick up for yourself just makes you look stupid. Your analogies are terrible and you miss the point of half the posts made against you. Obviously you're new to the whole moderated and smart forum discussion "thing" so it's probably in your best interest to go radio silent for a few weeks and then come back and ADD to conversations instead of invoking drama that's been settled for a long, long time.

That's what was recommended to me a long while ago. I give you that advice from the sub-cockles of my heart. Not because I like you, but because I hate reading your drivel. But you're obviously passionate enough to keep around if you knew at all the subject matter you were talking about. You've been writing for morons at MPS, deal with it. As arrogant as it sounds, to many people this is the "big league." Most writers from other sites would get shit on also. It's a league about reputation, pride, and relationships. I love my staff here, I love MANY of the readers (the vast majority) and I have given up jobs for this site. I will not have you come in here and peddle your tired shit in my living room.

Was that clear enough?

[Tale]

Neeeeed Signe post.

[WindupAtheist]

Also, I'm rather in awe of Bruce at this point.  You ban him, and he uses this guy to fag up the board by proxy.  Devious.

[eldaec]

The continuous functions were at a disco. At the dance floor, cosine and sine are jumping up and down, and the polynomials are forming a ring. But the exponential function is standing seperately the whole evening. Due to sympathy for it, the identity joins it und suggest: "Come one, just integrate yourself!" – "I've tried that already", answers the exponential function, "but it didn't change a thing!"

Yes, but don't worry.  We're forming a Stephen Zepp/Broughden connection next week.  Stay tuned!

If Mongoose and Bruce were to join together to form some Voltron-esque forum pest, would the Goose-Bruce posts be so enormous that they couldn't fly more than 100 feet above water?

Science demands an answer imo.

  I am not a threat to anyone?  WTF is going through that ignoramus mind of yours?  My intent had nothing to do with being a threat to anything, is was simply to get feedback about an article that I had written, honestly what is going through your mind that you assumed that I was trying to be a "threat" to anyone?(This is quite comical as you do not even understand intent)

  Bruce has articles on his website that are third party, really?  Can you give me a link, I do not see any.  By the way your website(Don't flatter yourself) was not mentioned alone, it was mentioned as part of a list.  Why you may feel your website is "Holy" it is nothing more then a website, along with millions of others...  Imagine that though, I judge this website on what material it contains, instead of being associated with an ignorant, "pissed off at the world", moron such as yourself.  Look at you, what are you actually progressing here?  Maybe if you caught me 15-20 years ago you could get my goat, but honestly you are wasting your breath.  Know what takes you forward, and what holds you back, if you do nothing more then to concentrate on negativity, you will get nothing but neagative responses.(Such as this one, dumbass)  So take whatever the agenda is that you have, and take it forward in a postive fashion, otherwise your wisdom will go nowhere, and you will remain to the world what your are, IMO, nothing more then ignoramus trying to belittle someone else.  Can you not do anything constructive for the topic which started this thread?  Or or you so at a loss of intelligence and words that you can do nothing more then flame me?  Regardless, to me you are nothing more then a piece of online entertainment, held back from actually doing anything constructive by a compassionate hate for the topic(In this case the MMO industry) your are trying to be cynical about.  Although I do not know your actual physical age, your mental age must be quite youthful if you are convinced that you are taking your "cause" in a postivie direction by flaming me constantly.

  If the artcle that I have written contained items or expressions that were well known by the members of this website, could you not have commented in a different fashion to convey wisdom, instead of ignorance?  Although it seems you have at least a tiny hint of intelligence, it is largely trumped over by your lustful hate.  I am not your enemy, I do not develop MMO's and I have no say-so in the features that are inside them.  If you feel that you are all high and mighty then use your knowledge to show others what your point is, this breeds respect.  Acting like an ass and getting all pissed off makes me look at you as a retard trying to piss in the corner of a round room, although I may intially laugh, it has me take pity in the end.  Are you trying to impress someone?  Because I have not learned anything from you yet...  Is your mission to try to piss off all the new members and have them leave so you can say "L00k4t m3 1 m4d3 h1m l34v3, 1 4m s0 c00l"?  Let me explain what will happen here in the future, you will either:

1.  Give up and ban me.(Oh blue-eyed blonde-haired master, should I bring all the books to the town square Sunday morning for a bonfire?)

2.  Continue to act like an ass and put a smile on my face.(Really this is a website on the internet, and the internet is mainly used for entertainment)

3.  You will pull your head out of your ass and and start using words to constructively further the cause of your website, instead of trying to scare people away from it.(This is the only way you will get respect from me, or honest respect from anyone else that has a brain between their shoulders)

  Now before you reply,(I am pretty sure by now you are frantically searching for the reply button by now) think about those 3 choices you have.  And know that neither will effect me in anyway but the third, and I honestly believe you are too ignorant and hateful for that.  SO think of it as what you want from me.  Do you want to admit that you cannot except my opinon or views, then be cynical and ban me.(LOL)  Do you want to further my entertainment value, then continue with your negative ranting and ravings, but please be a little more passionate because I bore easily.  Or do you want to actually earn my respect?  Your choice, choose wisely.(LOL, Indiana Jones flashback, how ironic, because I already know the choice you have made)

  Comeone, don't get full of yourself, this website was on a list of websites.  It wasn't like I was told "OMG POST ON F13"!!!  Although I do find it funny that you banned Bruce, LOL.

[Cheddar]

Haha.  2 seconds to copy/paste retort. Suddenly changing your writing style, spelling, and grammar after incoherence? Priceless.





edit.  Errr, I suck at mimicking commercials.  You get the idea.  Seriously, I wish you had just came up with a witty rebuttal. :(

[voblat]

It nearly sounded credible.

Unfortunatey you managed to return to type in the last paragraph.

Telling me you laughed out loud twice at your own immense wit whilst typing it sort of spoiled the moment for you there.

[eldaec]

Of rabbits, I can't figure why
They add not, but sure multiply.
They have the potential
To be exponential,
But don't give a toss about pi.

[Tale]

Comeone, don't get full of yourself

What has the world cometwo?

[schild]

Although I do not know your actual physical age, your mental age must be quite youthful if you are convinced that you are taking your "cause" in a postivie direction by flaming me constantly.

Come on lose the stereotypes and make a competent flame, belittlement, or whatever you are trying to do.

[Hoax]

Let me try, everyone knows my grasp of the grammar sucks perhaps I can get through to him.


Listen, Mongoose, you work(ed) for an exploiter site.  That makes you damaged goods, the same way somebody who works for IGE is a jackass by association you are a jackass by association.  Beyond that, saying you are a "writer" for some 'sploit site gives you no cred.  If you want to just drop down onto a forum and post a fucking essay you need cred.  You have no cred, in fact you have negative cred because you are associated with Bruce and MPS.

Schild doesn't need to do anything and he's probably not going to ban you, this thread will continue for as long as it serves the purpose of providing amusement or until you say something really stupid.  Then it will go to the den, there special people will have a few more good times in it and it will die.

You are the one who needs to make an adjustment, it is COMMON fucking knowledge for anyone who knows anything about internet communities that the initial icebreaker is hard.  There are forums with membership #'s so massive nobody really cares and others with communities so small any new face is welcome.  There are also forums that have newbie introduction sections.  F13 doesn't fit any of these categories.  Your icebreaker was a treatise on the state of MMO's that as so many others have said is 5 years late.  Developers need to focus more on fun less on shiney, often they dont seem to understand simple shit like timesink cockblocks aren't fun (McQuaid I'm looking at you) we know, we've got that, it is a fucking given.

Imagine if you will somebody showing up and posting a lengthy post along these lines:
"Blizzard is fucking great gaiz!  Like seriously, I can't believe how much they own!!  Does anyone agree with me?"

That is what you have done.  It is not too late though, I suggest you just walk away for now.  Don't travel the well-worn path of some loser who shows up, does something stupid, gets flamed a bit and then refuses to go away all the while claiming "I dont care about your stupid site lolz!".  Those guys always get banned in the end because eventually that shtick gets to be very not fun.
