yes we can
why should we not judge you based on how you act?
do you really expect to have a clean slate every day? then every minute? every second?
no, you past stays with you

if you really want to start over, get a new key and a new account and don't tell anybody who you are

and I haven't judged you in the past much, but you're really being a dumbass right now

This is why we can't judge on him based on his past. He was raising a concern and everyone feels the need to jump on him for whatever reason. Even after it was resolved.

Drama / Re: So, what've I missed?

since a few people were talking about steam blockland things I thought I'd say something too
why does the steam page say that blockland requires 2 gb of space

That's odd, without any non-default add-ons it takes about 203 MB.

there are fewer good servers because the mods are private.

you are seeing the same problem under a different cause.

rtb-archive.host22.com
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?board=34.0

Some good servers were made with just those.
Any larger projects require some pretty user-unfriendly setting up, or twice the amount of time to make. Similar to colorsets and (auto)admin without RTB.

You can't rotate GUI elements. The player's view can rotate. You've already run into a problem.

As for server sided, you can try a particle that looks like a chat bubble.

lol, this.

heedicalking always attacks badspot whenever development is brought up in any thread. it's like he just searches for the term so he can start stuff.

Implying he was always like this. Feel free to check his post history though.

wasn't this board created so people would argue here instead of stuffting up other boards?

It clearly hasn't helped. People still stuff up other boards.

Add-Ons / Re: Organized Color-Set [Please Re-download, Updated!]

« on: August 12, 2014, 10:04:45 AM »

I don't know what is bad about the dark colors, it's still a variety of darker colors than the normal colors.

Because they're just standard but with a linear amount of less color.
I've also been criticized for this on my colorset. So then I started messing around with the colors, so I could make them actually dark colors that aren't just linear reductions of the standard. Then they actually looked pretty neat and unique. And then people stopped complaining about my colorset. But also didn't use it. Basically a colorset has to be perfect from the start. Good luck.

Riot's been making recent skin themes have meta team comps. So it wouldn't be Blitz, as Sona already has the support spot.

blitz has better win rate in ranked 

lol win rates.

And for the record, I've played plenty of games without a forum drama section. Actually, this is the only game I've played one that has one. The one and only other game with a more hostile community than this one was League of Legends. This is a lego building game.

Modification Help / Re: vignette and droping problems

« on: August 12, 2014, 09:49:29 AM »

Just do this:

Code: [Select]

if($Sky::VignetteColor !$= "")
%vignetteColor = $Sky::VignetteColor;
else
%vignetteColor = "0 0 0 0";

Pretty sure you should be using $Sky:: and not $EnvGuiServer::

Badspot, what do you say if I make a megatopic with a compilation of ideas, suggestions and bug reports in the General Discussion forum?
I've found tons of things that are either hidden features/things that can be expanded on (SplashData into full-fledged ParticleData pls, .ifl textures not being cache'd, etc.) and some bugs related to server hosting (Failed to auth with the server = instant server shutdown. Can you just make it so a messageBoxOK is shown that your server has gone offline so you don't lose any progress?)

Also, I've been meaning to ask, how hard would it be to implement Awesomium system into Blockland? From what I heard, Awesomium is something that allows users to have an in-game browser, much like Gmod allows you to watch youtube videos and browse websites. I'm not an expert in this, so I wouldn't even know how much work it would take, so can you give us some input on that?

From what I've seen going on around the community it seems like there are lots of people who complain about no updates happening yet they don't even say what exactly do they want to be done most of the time, just "make a magical big ass update with things in it".

It'll be ignored like every other suggestion. People like me, Heed, and a few others have quietly and calmly suggested things many times in the past, either to be answered by "no", or just not answered.

sorry if I brought up an old argument

when has this ever happened, chrono?

Case 1: Disagreement in-game that could be resolved with a simple argument, agreement to disagree, or discussion.
Result: "I'm gonna drama you!"
Case 2: A previously banned user gets harassed upon making an alt, despite mentality supporting improvement.
Result: Drama topics nitpicking at every mistake.
Case 3: User loses patience and gets banned again. Returns with alt but doesn't let anyone know. Shows improvement.
Result: Someone finds out and makes a drama topic, people rip on past mistakes again.
Case 4: Typically respected user gets into a personal dispute with another user, which should be resolved in private.
Result: Other user makes drama topic, respected user suddenly gets backlash outside of drama. Harassed over steam, etc.

Any good moderator would not delete the whole board they would actually go through it and remove the spam topics. The drama board is for hate, love, arguing and..well..DRAMA. It's not a place for spam it's a place where people go to rant and bicker about stuff. It's actually healthy to have, so people can express how they feel, like in this situation.

If people have problems with another user, it should be dealt with personally. If a user is a potential threat to server stability, then they should be reported. The only thing this board promotes is public bashing.

someone should make a userscript that hides the drama section so that chrono stops bitching

Time to 'regurgitate' again.

Drama affects more than just the drama board.

what? no. that's not what I meant. you were trying to start drama, which is weird since you claim you don't want drama

War for peace. It worked for Canada.

Chrono while I understand your concept of "Rules" and "No Drama" it's not going to happen unless you have active moderators. I would love to be a forum moderator even if that just meant deleting spam topics and moving necessary ones where they belong, cleaning and organizing the forum and helping people who need it, But it's not gonna happen.

Maybe Badspot should have a topic to apply for forum moderator or something, hell idk.
If you want these rules and enforcements Chrono you gotta have active moderators on any forum, which i understand is a slight problem here

It's only a problem because people have too much distrust in any proper candidates. I've already recommended people like Bisjac, Bushido, and Destroyer. This distrust probably comes from all the drama.

lol get a load of this guy. acts as if he is some sort of lone wolf or something. alone, sane, fighting for justice and freedom (also wearing a tin foil hat so the government waves cant get to him)

maybe, just maybe, chrono is the true internet hero we need, but dont deserve

whos chrono this is batman
