Man, rampant strawmanning, no criticism of notch allowed or your argument is invalid, 'if you don't like it don't play it' as a response to everything.

Man, I love internet forums.

I don't know much about Minecraft but Notch is badass, as proven by that time-lapse video of him making a video game in two days.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 03:48:31

Neko DESU KAAA?

Why don't i make a suggestion about something that's already in the game and most people should know about already?

Not only are the trolls stupid...

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-04 10:50:04

This is why I stick to the game itself and the wiki when I need it.

Magus · 2011-02-07 22:32:34

He he he, that animalgirl thread is so wonderful.

DonZabu · 2011-02-07 22:51:05

I can forgive posting something that's already been posted before. Search bars can be really unreliable/give you tons of results that you weren't looking for/be too general/be too specific.

But this...my god...

Okay, I'm not completely certain of what you linked to that for, but dear god if that's how every topic on that forum is... I don't know...

The entire first page is just "yeah rain is cool you should totally do " and asking stupid questions.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-07 22:57:23

^It's a feature that was already in the game.

DYRE · 2011-02-07 23:20:11

Well then. That makes that thread go from "bad" to "Oh My God is this really happening please tell me this is a joke"

Tnophelia · 2011-02-08 14:14:19

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

hahahahaha.

That's stupider than the thread I made.

Trash_Vortex · 2011-02-08 14:18:37

That Neko thread was bad enough, but is that avatar what I think it is?

Tnophelia · 2011-02-08 14:20:13

Yes. It is the Twin Towers being destroyed by Ghasts.

The one thing about making hillarious discussions without being banned or warned is:

Go to a forum that submits to Poes Law like a battered girlfriend.

Make a topic you know 12 year olds will be most likely to flame.

Watch it and pretend to be sincere and stupid with your points.

randomtropeloser · 2011-02-08 15:21:40

I wasn't aware Minecraft really had a fandumb, aside from griefers.

DonZabu · 2011-02-08 19:20:02

The thread I linked to was part of this gigantic and frankly bizarre shitstorm that occurred a few weeks back. One guy started making a rain mod, then another guy claimed to have started making a rain mod, then somehow one of them felt insulted by the other and started making multiple threads about the other author, and in the end, both projects were canceled. And in the end, it was hard to decide which of the authors was more of a pissant.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-08 19:23:51

It was like a bunch of kids trying to flame Flame_Hazurd for his Eastern Dragon idea that he put into suggestions, and they were digging their hands into their asses and throwing shit at their computers in anger (probably feasable considering their horrible typing) just because someone wanted to step outside of the Eragon ghetto. Fuck I hate these little kids. They don't even contribute to the one good western dragon thread there, they just make new threads listing "their idea", and trying to get credit for it. Did I mention all of their ideas involve the dragons being friendly, being tamable and lay eggs? as a hostile mob? And they keep saying it's an original idea and everyone is stealing it, and that learning how to mob is hard because of school. I can't stand that forum anymore.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-08 21:59:17

Wow. Just wow. No way.

randomtropeloser · 2011-02-08 22:02:56

What, what's going on?

DYRE · 2011-02-08 22:03:44

@Tno's thread: ...well... that was something.

^ I dunno.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-08 22:15:48

All I had to do was mention furries.

THATS ALL.

DYRE · 2011-02-08 22:17:30

Yeah. That was... pretty awful.

I never want to visit that forum ever.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-08 22:18:35

please don't. It's probably one of the reasons I hate minecraft (but not enough to get me to quit playing)

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-08 22:19:24

I usually try to tell people not to let fans get in the way of liking something, but the Minecraft forum is really good at making people hate. That's why I don't go there. Ever.

DYRE · 2011-02-08 22:21:14

In this case, the people there don't change my opinion of Minecraft in any way...

...they just kind of make me sad that there are people like that...

Tnophelia · 2011-02-08 22:23:44

There should be a minimum age requirement for internet usage.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-08 22:29:46

Well, to register for stuff like fora in the US, you have to be 13, but nobody pays attention.

randomtropeloser · 2011-02-08 22:30:34

I could join the forum too if that would help. I might be able to slightly raise the forum's general IQ, but I might be overselling myself here.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-08 22:31:38

Nah. It's more likely that they'd just lower yours. Strength in numbers and all.

randomtropeloser · 2011-02-08 22:32:38

I guess I should think twice before joining then. Getting to hang out with you guys somewhere besides here would be kinda cool though.

Trash_Vortex · 2011-02-10 12:06:48

Gay people like playing with coloured wool, black people should be shot.

That was all the information I could glean from that thread. I looked at it too long... My brain feels like it's curling at the edges...

Tnophelia · 2011-02-10 13:21:29

Yup. the same thing happens with the Call Of Duty game forums.

Howdy, Stranger!
