Why bother doing a new release

For the past year I have been busy learning to code; yes I was a swapper and never had the time to learn, but now I can. I want to release something(~) and add back to the scene. I thought it would be great for a one-man show to thank some of the fine help here. The code would not the best, but certialy not the worst.

My question to everyone is: Why should I bother releasing an intro or little demo that would be old-skool, when I see the majority of user comments on releases shit-can everything? Would I get nailed because I'm a newbie coder? Or are there more mature minds here?

I need encourgement!

Wozza.

@Wanderer: your provocative patronizing tone turns offensive.
If you enjoy humiliating people,do so when working.
You´ll get fired rather soonish.
Act dumb,enjoy the rewards.
You ought to recognise this behaviour!

I'm not interested in debating this topic.

The past is in the past.

Johan, I hear you and I understand what you're saying.

I'm tired of hearing about the past, plain and simple. I'm tired of the bashing in the forums.

Between Christmas and now I uploaded enough stuff to be put in the top 10 uploaders. I made enough ON-TOPIC posts to be in the top posters.

I did not start each of the messes that led to forum lockings. In those cases it was people rehashing stuff from Christmas time. Mermaid is no exception.

I've pissed people off, yes. I know I have enemies.

The question is, how long will it take for them to move on and get over the past? Two months, ten months? A year?

But WDR, you talk such shit!

from above - "For ANYONE to say it is 'shit' is saying, that's not good enough for me - and it's not up to you or I to make that call"

from a pm - "you have 4 credits to your name and the demos SUCK. I mean they are absolute shit."

You try to act all innocent, and you consistantly say and do really stupid stuff!

We're not arguing with you, we're laughing at you!

In the context of a newcomer uploading their work to CSDB and being judged by more experienced coders, it is.

For me, a coder with 20 years experience, I can judge your release and say it is 'shit'. I would not do this to a new coder.

Oh look, Slarti Mcfly just signed in. Just as a moth chases light, doth Slarti McFly chase me :)

Oh, and there is no 'we'. There is just you and Slarti McFly :D Laugh away, it's healthy to laugh.

20 years experience? hahahaha, nice one.... you forget that you left the scene for, oh I dunno, 15 years of those? :)

Funny thing is, even with your '20 years experience', my stuff is still better than yours and always has been - you are in absolutely no position to judge anyone!.... bahahahaha

Fair enough Mike,I dig you!
I am happy to see you around.
Your work down here is to be an example for many,I mean that!
Your ´fights´ with Slarti are entertaining,for me atleast,sorry scene. ;)
Some actions by you just suck and the past is as close as my last breath. ;)
Mermaid got hit and she didn´t deserve it!!
It will be remembered and it will never look good.
Still,you have my respect..

You can respond and I'll read it, but that is all I can add to this exchange of idearrrrs. :)

Time to move on.

I'm not interested in debating this topic.

I have nothing further to add to this thread.

I left the 'scene' but I never stopped coding. I've some PC demos here that I've written and a few (eg. Show Up) demos on the 64 that I have not put out.

It still qualifies me to form an opinion on your demos that I would not do for a newcomer.

I think this will adequately rectify your confusion over my 'talking shit' :D

LOL looks like Slarti McFly posted as usual only after Simon posts. The so called 'victim' once again shows his passive-aggressiveness. Notice Slarti McFly will only post when it is 'safe' to do so (eg. immediately after Simon). In fact, in another thread he posted 4 follow ups to my every message like a true obsessed fan boy would and should. Sadly he has yet to understand his words will never be read (ignore mode is a beautiful thing).
