Don't mold my double post into one...I use seperate posts to express seperate thoughts and messages. Please.
I'd just like to adress some people individually so we can better assess our desires, needs, and goals.
Arxryl- You said it best a few posts ago. This forum is a souvenir, a relic of a love that once burned passionately but is now just embers. It is something that strikes at your heart for a brief moment as you pass it by...but all you do is walk on and enjoy the dulled sense of pleasure of reminiscence. We wouldn't have to throw this souvenir away...but we can't live our odd life sitting in front of it forever.
SeaRex-Leave the titles to me. Cult Gaming? C'mon. That's so cliche and unoriginal. At least put a little thought into it. But that's ok, you're my DoubleFine guy. Hell even snuzi stuck up for grim fandango. This move would totally satisfy your double needs for fineness.
Snuzi- You miserable bastard. You should be exiled from our midst. All you do is take my posts, mutilate them and snip out bits to use against me. Why? Are you more concerne with fighting ME or upholding oddworld? Anyway, you don't deserve an adress...your idiocy is plainly seen from the clear dispairty between what I'm saying and what your attacks on me say.
Xavier-...ya know, I don't really know how to answer your question. lol
Max- You didn't really have any questions, but you did help me out in terms of establishing my platform. Woot. Now Imagine how much more moderating fun you could have with like 5 other game forums.
Alcar- 160 bucks doesn't sound so bad. I could do it. Thats about 13 hours at work...no biggy. Of course I don't think I should pay the full price...EH PEOPLE? Anyway. We could jsut keep OWF as a souvenir...because that's all it really is. Also...what kind of ressurgence are you expecting from Citizen Siege? If you think the same 30 memebers becoming more active qualifies as a ressurgence...well...that's you. Some idiots will probably make some kind of new Citizen Siege forum and go there...and they'll discuss Lorne's new stuff. They won't know about oddworld. But they will know Citizen. I could be wrong though. I haven't been here long enough to totally confirm that. So you tell me how shit really is.
Hobo- you sweet...filthy street urchin! jk. Awesome posts man...and I don't think I got your joke about the glass prison. I see you're fairly keen on my idea. I hope you'll be there when the big shit goes down! And yeah...here's my *nudge*.
Munch's Master- what you propose is doing abslutely nothing. We already have a forum for non odd games. Clearly it doesn't do shit. My proposal on the other hand makes a bit more sense. There's too much attention to oddworld here and not enough to anything else (which is understandable except for the part where you add on non oddworld stuff). The point is we need a new face and a new place.
Mitsur- stop aplogozing...jk...and you got me all wrong buddy...I'm not getting pissed at anyone for disagreeing with me...I get pissed when people don't read what I say and then disagree with me...
used- the truth is...I'm your...mother...I've spoken enough to you damnit
I think that's it...if i missed anyone, I'm sorry...but then again you probably weren't worth adressing anyway...
Just out of curiosity skillya...how long can you have a haven for games that last like 10 hours. I single out oddworld too...but there's only so much you can delve into with the series. Look...you can stay right here...with the same 15 people and talk about how abe is blue, teal, turquoise, or ****ing salad green for eternity. Or..we can have a whole movement. Get totally new people hooked on oddworld. Get new topics...new stuff. There's only a certain amount of times you can watch a movie...no matter how great it is.
I'm against organized religion if you don't get it...my favorite religion to bash (as it is anyone's who likes to bash religion): Christianity. From KGB type Jesuit orders and Crusades promising the same thing as we're yelling at suicide bombers for now? Not a great history eh? The only diff between christinaity now and then is that it was the government. it had its military and subjects at it's disposal. Now it just brainwashes for profit. But this has nothing to do with oddworld....although interesting, thoughtful topics should definetely be part of this hypothetical new forum. For example in the oddworld section...we could discuss environmental and human rights issues...in psychonauts we could discuss sociology and psychology
in fallout...um....North Korea and nukes...lol...and scientology (if anyone caught on to the hubologists in fallout 2...its clearly mocking L ron hubbard)
