Author Topic: General Opinions on Personal add-ons?  (Read 10934 times)

believe or not, there are great unique servers that doesn't have personal add-ons
where'd you get that statistic
its not a statistic, it's a guess.


when i was testing my playertypes last week, I asked  the people on my server if they were running shaders.

So let me get this straight.

Pandan posted a topic and poll to collect people's opinions regarding personal and or private add-ons...

...and then nine pages later posts these

I'm glad to hear that the majority of you guys aren't as stupid as the ones I've seen here posting in this thread.
And throughout this thread, all I read is "people want it, so release it"

You guys are seriously loving dumb for thinking that.

Really, Pandan? :/

The first comment was based on the poll. Which I like the results from.

And the second one was based on the silly reasons for not liking private add-ons.

EDIT: private/personal

they're almost the same to me

It's a discussion thread to gather and gauge opinion, not a thread where Pandan makes a loving fool of himself trying to force everyone to subscribe to his one true opinion.

You're stupid

User was banned for this post
Well you definitely deserved that

I don't see why it's such a bad system

Considering a lot of forumers don't play the game. They wouldn't understand how frustrating getting your build stolen or getting your add-on released early would feel.

You're right. And I made this thread with that in mind.
I was truly curious.

It's when people started expressing how entitled they really are is when I got mad.

Both comments were you calling people stupid because they didn't agree with you. Way to make an ass of yourself.

I'm not making an ass of myself. You're just incapable of understanding the situation.

Also, i'm not the only one who's flinging names in this thread.
It's a touchy issue, and I feel strongly about it.

having something you've worked on copied is a pretty universal situation so i'm sure there's not a single person who can't relate to it somehow

not everyone ties their ego in with their creations. i know plenty of people who have invested a lot of time in things but still couldn't give a stuff if someone else decides to rip it

Also, i'm not the only one who's flinging names in this thread.
that doesn't justify it?

i still really want to know how people are pulling models from the cache now

to me that should work on the same basis as 'build stealing' - if you don't want people using your creative assets in their own servers, you shouldn't be hosting it in public
sure if you wanna rip someone's stuff an make an even more half-assed version for your server, there's probably not much wrong with it, but don't expect to be allowed to release it without the original author's permission

i'm not even buying in on that part of the debate, only taking it and using it yourself

I'm not making an ass of myself. You're just incapable of understanding the situation.

What's to not understand? The thread would've gone perfectly well had you not picked another fight with somebody. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with getting involved in a debate, but you stooped to personally attacking people for having differing opinions. That's not cool at all.


Also, i'm not the only one who's flinging names in this thread.

I never said you were? Your major malfunction was that you were flinging names at people who weren't involved in the drama you stirred up. You insulted everyone who didn't pick your favorite poll option.

Is this the part where you tell me that I don't understand how you feel because I don't make add-ons?

got the proof to back that up?
huh bub?

it sounds really sketchy and biased sorry.

but yeah add-ons should at least be released at SOME POINT
i mean what would life be like if badspot never released his add-ons
or if ephi never released rtb
