Quote from: Sacrosanct;640144How does the ignore list work on this forum? I think I need to use it for my own blood pressure.

Highly recommended, both here AND at TBP for the pissy "don't you realize how offense that statement is" offense-trolls.

Oh, charming. Whether you're throwing out random slurs or just mistaking identities, it's probably worth pointing out that I've never been banned from any forum.

Just breath and dont feel like you need to respond to every post that rubs you the wrong way. My rule of thumb is, the moment a forum discussion adds stress to my life, I step back and participate in a different conversation.

If you do want to ignore someone, just click on their profile, go to user lists and select "Ignore List".

Quote from: Anon Adderlan;640047Fuck you and your shitty shirt and you using cancer as a crutch for your fucking self rigorousness and petty ego. If the only thing moving your product is a deadly disease you may want to rethink your marketing as opposed to disparaging the moral fiber of those gamers who just weren't interested in your crap.

You know, while the pedophilia DOES bug me, I still find indie gamers who play (or at least own) those games to be far more fun, respectful, adaptable, insightful, and helpful than the folks into classic RPGs. There's a reason the D&D forum on RPG.net is a warzone, and it's largely because of D&D. So if you don't want non-gamers to get the wrong idea, maybe you should address THAT issue first.

...and here it is, Anon Adderlan being a sack of crap. The proceeds from the shirt go to charity (if you want to question that, say that).

If owning indie games makes people more respectful and helpful, you need to buy some more goddamn indie games.

Fool me twice....

No and although he defends stuff we don't like, i don't think throwing that kind of accusation around is very constructive.

It's a way of shutting someone up who although A) Shows annoying tenacity in defending potentially dodgy shit has B) Never ever suggested that he thinks actual dodgy shit is anything but that.

Planet Algol · March 25, 2013, 05:15:21 PM

Sorry, I got him confused with someone else then.

I'd be more than happy to show receipts if someone were to do that. In fact, I actually donated extra because the actual donation amount from sales was only $30 something, and that's not nearly enough of a donation IMO.

totally. Most of us Indie guys are total assholes.

Quote from: Ladybird;640071I'm against cancer, but I wouldn't buy your shirt, because I don't like it.

Fair enough. I don't expect people to buy things they actively don't like

QuoteThat's some win right there.

It was. The other really awesome moment? When a guy came up to me and said, "Hey, I read the review of your game on KotDT"

My heart immediately dropped and I was dreading what was coming next (I've mentioned that review on here in the past).

But he said, "I actually have talked with Jolly before, and I wrote him telling him he was way wrong on this one. You got shafted." That made me feel A LOT better. Then he introduced himself as Brendan. I guess guys named Brendan are awesome by default

How the hell does this thread end up getting 12 pages? I post this having looked only at the 1st page... so I'm betting it'll be interesting for me to find out...

Rehashing heated arguments on old topics, mainly. That always seems to do the trick.

Novastar · March 26, 2013, 01:59:49 PM

I was thinking more "12 pages? This is only page 3, for me..."

Quote from: The Traveller;639590The previous comments were directed towards an individual who has attempted to excuse maid's 'seduce a nine year old' with translation error, despite the fact that the translator is a native English speaker. In that context I do indeed find him fucked up. Ghost in the Shell, Fullmetal Alchemist, Black Lagoon, all completely devoid of the underwear of minors, and yet some people gravitate towards the nasty stuff and THEN feel obliged to evangelise their proclivities.

Lawncrappers all.

No no, they're just being "transgressive", don't you see? They're doing ART that makes us question our privileged assumptions, like that 9 year old girls shouldn't be sodomized with broomhandles, and young boys shouldn't be decapitated and have their neckholes fucked. That kind of thinking is the product of our racist patriarchal society, and we can't oppress them with our bourgeois morality!

Fuckers.

Quote from: The Yann Waters;639597"Enticement" would apparently have been the strictest translation.

OH! Its "enticement" and not "Seduction"... well then, that's just fine! Clearly, "Enticing" a 9 year old girl is certainly OK.

Quote from: Planet Algol;639717How many goddamn pedo-ish/-esque rpgs are there?

FUCK!

Lots, but they're all being made by the same tiny group of people; the ex-elite of the Forge. Vince Baker, Andy K, Ben Lehman, all the filth of the hobby who at the same time dare to try to dictate either morality or game design theory to the rest of us.
