Given the primary drive of evolution is to procreate, our bodies have so many delightful ways to make it bloody difficult...

@Thenomain Apparently so! I was going to use a book or something for the sigil, but I found the pipe and felt that it was more appropriate.

@Arkandel While MUing is just text, the things I said (I can't recall actual examples at present) off the game were... well. Brutal and bordering on libel. I can legitimately say that I hurt people beyond a "taking things too seriously on a text game" angle.

A'ight. I'll give this apologising thing a go, what could possibly go wrong?

Some of you may be aware that I was Stalingrad at The Reach, perhaps the staffer with the least pleasant reputation - a reputation that was certainly earned.
I caused several problems, not least of which the betrayals of trust of not only the Mage sphere overwhich I was nominally in charge but many members of staff and people I considered compatriots, if not friends - several of whom are present here on the forum.

I could say that I allowed myself to be manipulated by one of the more toxic erstwhile members of our community. I could also say that I was scared of said toxic member. But, these are excuses. My "reasons" for being such an absolute dipshit of a staffer, and a person, are mostly just that I was inexperienced at dealing with such people, and did not know what to do - and just went with what I was told. Be that as it may, it doesn't at all change the fact that I was abhorrant, causing prople of all stripes to rightfully find fault in me.

I, thus, wish to apologise. Not only for my behaviour and favouritism (which is plainly what it was, in spite of my protests at the time), but for my attitude and behaviours off the game in the now-infamous skype conversation. I proved myself as nothing more than a monsterous individual that was willing to say or do whatever to gain the favour of those that are less than reputable.

I do not, of course, expect this public spectacle to gain any sympathy or forgiveness. I don't know, honestly, if what I am feeling is remorse or simply acknowledgement that I failed as a person placed in a position of trust and authority. Either way, I am sorry, and hope that all future endeavours of mine in this community can be met with, if not acceptance, than the civility that I've seen thus far.

This just in: People Occasionally Act Like Dicks. News at 11.

@ixokai Except it does. Just because it hasn't happened for you to see, doesn't mean it hasn't happened.

@ixokai Make a request on the game. @Tehom's pretty good about doing such things rather swiftly, when his plate isn't too full.

@Cobaltasaurus SPRING mothertrucker!

Far too much heat, all the hayfever, and goddamn snakes everywhere. Eeeech.

@Miss-Demeanor Huh, it seems you are correct. Go back and read my post when it's accurate. >_>

Also, I believe many of the mods on Nexus have also been copied to the Steam Workshop.

@Auspice I wouldn't wish that fate on any child.

@Jaded Wasteland 2 is one of my top twenty games of ever. I haven't found Wasteland 1, though, so I feel as though I'm missing out on a great fun time.

If you liked the original two Fallout games (the isometric-ish tactical-ish RPG-ish ones) then Wasteland is DEFINITELY worth a look.

@Auspice I WAS PROBABLY THERE AT YOUR BIRTH. BE DEFERENTIAL, CHILD.

Also I gave you whiskey. I am the best influence.

Must say I'm surprised for the upvote there, @EmmahSue, given how abhorrently I treated you in the now-infamous Skype chat.

Arx: Lou

Oh god, you're THAT person.

@ixokai said in Is there a basics of CG out there somewhere?:

And coders staying sane is a very serious requirement I'm not even joking about.

By this you mean 'coders staying as sane as they were when they started' right?
