Heh. Yes, I did find this both entertaining and familiar.

You know what I would like to see you do? (Well, not you specifically.) (Well, ALSO you specifically.) Quit projecting your own desires, drives, and moral structure onto other people, and let them just live their lives however the fuck they want to.

I talked about this with my mother yesterday. We both live under the primary guideline "do unto others as we would have them do unto us". To that end, she's very outgoing and social and talkative and kind and always wants to be involved with people and help them out if she can, or just brighten their day, if only a little bit.

To that end, I leave people the fuck alone.

I think you would like the game Majesty.

Here's proof to that end.

I don't really mind your choice of lifestyle. It's OK with me if you've become a sort of hermitiosexual.

(To wit: his characterization of me as "wasting" my life and squandering opportunities around every corner.)

I would just like to see you do more with things, I guess. That's all! Just grab that brass key, if you could, please. Okay. Forget the brass key. The brass lantern and the skeleton key would do nicely instead.

WC3 UPDATE!!

Currently through scenario FOUR of the second campaign. Remember, I never got past scenario NINE, so after four more scenarios, I'll be ALL CAUGHT UP!

However, it's now occurring to me again why I quit in the first place, because right around scenario FOUR of the second campaign, that's right around when the scenarios start to get... loooong. Long and hard(er).

Of course, this could just be due to the rather glacial, deliberate method of play I've developed over the years. ("Create a unit? Why yes, I think I will. Now let's sit back and revel in the creation of my new unit. Now let's make him walk around in circles! Now let's press all the spell buttons which are deactivated, so they don't do anything.

by **pinback** » Tue Mar 09, 2004 9:05 pm

Good question, Worm!

By the way, that was Jonsey's second vitriolic (if we can still use that word with a straight face), hateful diatribe against me in as many hours (and on as many BBSes).

Apparently that's the JC Sysop's new raison d'etre. Singling out the few quality posters he has left, and berating them, belittling their choice of lifestyle, and generally just denigrating their entire existences, with an intent both to vent, and also to cause emotional damage. (To wit: his characterization of me as "wasting" my life and squandering opportunities around every corner. Missed that one? Make sure to hop on over to So Now Then and check it out for yourselves!!)

That's the Jolt Country way these days, I guess. Very sad.

Did we even use it before she signed up? Does it mean "randomly capitialized"?

I mean, you're doing your routine and he is doing his. You obviously don't actually believe you got them together, and he wouldn't even care if you did. I think most of the people here are reasonably happy and smart, which can make for helluva comedy. Though if we are just going to type the same things over and over, well that is just fucking silly.

Ah. Apparently it's "take a big steaming dump on Ben day".

This is especially disappointing, coming from the two people who I singlehandedly ushered into (ostensibly) the happiest, most emotionally fulfilling experience of their lives.

Just doesn't pay to help some people out anymore, y'know?

Well, this post sure as hell wasn't made in a quality manner. So is the game getting finished?

Gosh, just imagine how much time it would take out of your life if instead of having a job and things to do, you also had to fit in the monolithic task of deciding if you were going to DRINK ALL DAY, or NOT DRINK ALL DAY.

Look you FUCKING DICK.

I can POST TO A FUCKING WEB FORUM IN A QUALITY MANNER or FINISH A FUCKING VIDEO GAME. I can NOT DO FUCKING BOTH. I am also TIED DOWN BY HAVING A FUCKING JOB that requires me to PERFORM SAID FUCKING DUTIES and not hang about all day like some sort of bitter ex-pat engaging in this foo foo foo fa fa "Where were the better days?" horseshit.

I can't go play WC3 and talk about it with you. I can't go load up a coaster simulator and view your coasters. I can't play those games that I genuinely enjoy and have purchased and those arcade games. I have NO GODDAMN TIME left for ANYTHING except fixing shitty bugs and making a bunch of Hugo functions seem like real people.

What kills me is that you essentially shut down the sad excuse for a BBS that you have over there for six months, bring it back up and then harass everyone here to go post on it. So it's a subset of people that you wholly despise. Have you done an IOTA of work in telling other people that your spanking-new BBS exists? Have you mentioned it to ANYONE not on this BBS? Anyone at all?

Yes, this is a shitty BBS right now. If I spent two hours a night for five days working on it, it would be a much better place and everyone would have more fun. And it's disappointing that the amusing people who do come here do not post more. But I'm fucking busy, man, trying to slob together some POS "game" that -- when I do achieve other things than working on it -- gets me an endless amount of shit from EVERY GODDAMN PERSON I KNOW except my own parents, who have their own idiotic agenda for ruining the quality of my life.

Fuck.

FUCK.

Christ.

This entire BBS has officially gone to hell. I sit here, day after day, trying, striving my fucking heart out to keep it alive, to turn it into something interesting, something real, something... good.

But what happens? All of my efforts are continually subverted by childish little pricks with no sense of class, decorum, or decency. And no talent for being funny, being interesting, being useful members of a web forum, or even society as a whole.

Good thing the So Now Then site is back up and running! That's where the REAL fun is these days! Why not head on over and check it out!!!

So sassy!

by **pinback** » Tue Mar 09, 2004 9:24 am

I don't have any idea about that. But that's irrelevant. I never said "WC3 is better than WC2 and WC1", I simply said that WC3 is a fabulous, fabulous piece of work, irrespective of its difference from its predecessors (or from anything else, for that matter), and anyone who disagrees is an incorrigible buttplug.

by **Lysander** » Tue Mar 09, 2004 8:25 am

If you haven't played the previous games, how do you know that they didn't have things that were better which WC3 didn't have?
