No, fuck you, you whiney little bitch.
there is a distinct difference between making a statement and whining
How respectful of other peoples' opinions does that sound? 'Fuck whatever you say, my words are the truth, the sole truth, the truth that you all know and are ignoring'. It's a pretty good way to be an asshole.
I must admit, I'm rather entertained at you claiming to speak the truth ('For the silent majority' like exodia? The language is getting rather familiar), and then flipping out when he puts up a poll to determine the overall opinion and offers to back off.
so, you think this game WILL have a better/deeper story than bg or ps:t? you do realize the whole "truth" only refers to that one paragraph, and not what I say in general?
don't put words in my mouth. I said it already, what I say is what I say, not a majority
and there is difference between making a poll and making "choose what I want, or I quit" poll, which is exactly what this is
Yes it was. If you're a critical failure in communications and didn't mean to imply it, that's fine, but it was pretty definitely implied.
english is not my native language, so that is entirely possible, but as the writer of that sentence, I assure you it was not meant to imply any intent at asserting dominance
that was an honest question. if you do not want something in your game, why have discussions about it?
you don't see toady posting polls like "do you want dwarf fortress to be turned into elf village? oh, and if you do, I quit"
Then take them out, dumbass. The game is highly moddable for a reason.
that argument is not very valid, I could just say: "hey, you want a personality? mod it in yourself"
Hey, I understand that you want the game the way you want it. Who doesn't? The difference here seems to be that you want to strongarm the devs into making the game the way you want it, while everyone else is satisfied to mod it for themselves.
I, on the other hand, know none of my words will make a difference, because you will just do it anyway
I was not trying to strongarm anyone. I said it because I wanted to say it
and, really, doc is a grown man who is perfectly capable of defending himself and/or banning me, if need be
I am not, as some seem to believe, fighting over the direction wm would take, and I actually respect doc as much as I could respect someone I know next to nothing about
this was a conflict on a personal scale and has little to do with wm
