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.

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).

I'm pretty sure this thread was wrapped up nicely by the original poster already. No point getting needlessly offensive now is there?
Some people never learn. |

OK WDR, so what youre saying is that while you wont ever say some newbies stuff is shit, in a few years when theyre no longer newbies youll tell em their old stuff was shit?
Nice! Youre an absolute winner! Go Wanderer! HAHAHAHAHAHA
SLarti only rocked up here cos I said 'hahahahahahha, wdr talking complete shit on csdb again' on irc. He's always game for a laugh, altho I think we're actually starting to feel sorry for you...... It was funny when we thought you were a troll, but now we're starting to think youre serious which is just sad...

hehehe...
stuff is in progress, probably not amazing since I have several other hobbies and a life (wife and 2 kids), but itll be cool enough. Might take a little longer since I want it to be fully PAL/NTSC compat throughout. |

Simon I will have to make my response into something you can comprehend because you seem to have great difficulty interpreting my English.
Here goes:
You neglected to mention the part where I said, "I only attack those who attack me first". That was you in the forums, you attacked me out of nowhere and you continue to do so.
The answer to your question would be a resounding NO, I would not attack a newbie years down the road. If you need any help with that explanation please let me know. I will try to simplify it :D
I am proud to say I get along with people on many forums and on here as well. Yet two people in particular have an unhealthy history of needing to obsess over me.
Slarti will always be on here when you are, it's like the little dog who chased Spike (the large dog) on Bugs Bunny. "Want to play with a ball today spike? huh huh? do you?" "Want to go catch some cars today Spike? do you? do you?". It perfectly demonstrates the interaction you two have. It's even funnier when he sees I'm on here and every 10 minutes or so he signs on, looks for messages, signs off and comes back again. A compulsion to see if he's received a response from me.
Slarti McFly was quiet for almost two months until you posted - thus providing the much needed backup he requires. If you weren't here, he'd be speechless.
The poor guy, booted off of Lemon 64 because he could not stop complaining about... me :) Despite Kim Lemon's request he stop, poor Slarti could not. It's not even a case of "would not" it's "could not". He has stated he is "MOST likely to reply", a sad case of self control.
So yes, you were both wrong about my trolling. Christmas came and went and I made no posts about anybody. I even uploaded software and made some on topic posts. It was all going quite peaceful until... until you and Slarti McFly decided to start all over again.
It's "sad" as you say that I am serious. For most users on here don't see themselves being pursued the way I am - their every post followed up on with nonsense replies. They don't see themselves mentioned in the one-liners or even other CSDB entries - without provocation.
It takes a special kind of person to devote that much time and effort to following me around the forums. I think Slarti really just wants to open a line of communication more than anything, either that or he is still holding on to anger issues. Perhaps he is testing to see if he is truly on ignore (as he is).
In any event, I really do hope a day will come where I can logon, make a post and not see tweedle-dumb and tweedle-dumber feel a compulsion to respond.
For the most part it is mildly amusing, I have never had such obsessed people pursue me before, even in my line of work.
I can't give Slarti the attention he desires nor engage him in the battles he feels are necessary.
In the history of CSDB has there ever been a user who was obsessed over as you two do? Who had their every word followed up on? Heck, I just checked an OLD entry for someone elses game and Slarti McFly followed up on it.
You should really look up borderline personality on Google. It paints an image of exactly what your friend is doing :)
I doubt another post is going to rectify your obsessions but I'm sure you can continue to entertain one another. By the way you do know you provide much entertainment? :D

hehehe, its more of a 'because I can' situation :) It started when I wanted to make my fullscreen sideborder DYSP ntsc compat, and grew from there :)
As for your rant wdr:
1. you know nothing about the situation on lemon.
2. you seem to have megalomania - go talk to a professional - the world doesnt revolve around you.
3. you accuse slarti of stalking you, and then spend time making a slarti mcfly poster? egads!
4. your characterisation of slarti following me around is incorrect - he only checked here cos I mentioned your insane post. He commonly gives me urls of insanity he sees around too... we often sit on irc in disbelief.
5. your post was too long to be sane - and arent you meant to be ignoring me? Or is this just a precursor to more abusive pm's and then your usual 'hahaha, I knew all along what the response would be' style rants?
6. Engage slarti in battles? I see 2 posts in here from him, both completely dismissive of you. Are you sure you arent accusing him of something you see in yourself?
Youre a scary, scary man.
