I am happy that my first post here was completely positive, Stah's map is a real keeper, that said...
My second post...
Le Ray and I have been corresponding on and off over the last "whatever" period of time. This week more so than before, the constant jabs/bickering/trash-talking/whatever really needs to stop. There is no reason to circle each other like kids in a school yard an try to kick each other in the shins... and for what? And worse, it is pointless and ruining a lot of the fun that remains in Q2 and the Q2 community that still exists.
I mentioned to Le Ray that I would like to be part of Q2M (here on these boards, I am very happy in [PSC]). I did mention that was IF I was welcome, don't want to sound too assumptive. Most of the gang at BS have talked about the whole mess and I concluded (for myself) that general consensus over there is the same... The joking is fun but has gone on enough, eh?
Oh and a few points I noticed, that I wanted to address...
(these are in response to things said directly about me)
1 - Reading my tutorial and dropping in over at Backshooters will not make you a f4g... I promise.
2 - When I make maps, I try to do a little more than move a few brushes around, then release it and call it new... I usually move at least 20 or more brushes around and only THEN do I release it... Otay?
[sarcasm]
3 - Never once was any discussion had about who would and who wouldn't enter Le Ray's 1st contest. No discussions at all... EVERYONE WAS TOLD TO STAY AWAY!!!
[/sarcasm]
Ok yeah, I read that and thought... WHAT? Does anyone here (anywhere for that matter) truly believe that control like that actually exists in any online gaming community. When I gave it a good consideration I had quite a great laugh out of the whole thing... in the end that is. I am quite confident that everyone over at Backshooters would tell me to piss-up-a-rope (or some such) if I ever said a word about DO/DO NOT!.
4 - Any criticism (aside from technical merrits) for any map is and always will be subjective opinion. That does not mean it is wrong or right, it is just an opinion. I love to beta test Q2 maps, IF it is a beta test and not simply a "gimme a nod of approval". In the end my opinion means squat, but if asked, I will give it.
5 - Q2 sucks anyway, mapping for "Malibu Barbie 3D: Runway Model" Is t3h shizzle-fizzle.
6 -Liberals Are Idiots
TTFN and peace... I hope.
