    You're right, boB is small and adorable. Btw, you know that's not me right? I think it's some football player.
  3. Henceforth the batman penguin shall be known as boB.

      Next time I play Disgaea, I'm naming a Prinny that.

  4. Guys. I'm loving the ideas. 1. Delete the forums and start again 2. Usurp mark and replace him with someone better Yeah Franklin, you've been saying that for years :) I know that. But I'd like you to say a bit more, for example why you think this is a solution. I know new websites can generate huge short-term hype. Then they all die. Even the giants have succumbed. @Omar: you also need to elaborate on the streaming. This topic is more for major changes to the site, not side-features. I am the symbolic leader, although retiring. But I am willing to develop other people's ideas. The site has always been driven by its users, not me of course. I like the idea about getting some new blood on the staff. My preference would be that they are actively developing and making games, but I think most of you are. Any volunteers?
  5. Salty. As I came here to post, I searched for you idea that you referred and that I interfere with. I came to post my own idea because I can only do so between periods of procrastination, because I have a lot of work to get through. But how odd, your idea is the same as mine :) Actually project management was intended to be a fundamental part of the games section and was always in my original plan. But my first revisions of the game pages were poor and misguided and required iterations (and I think I can get it right with any additional work I do on the front-end part of the games page). While I'm taking a break from my work, my mind is telling me that a project management system checks all the boxes where the other's do not. Salty is absolutely right about if I don't have to talk to anyone, I'm gonna take it and run. Content is needed to get the traffic needed to sustain activity for a community-powered system. Activity and growth is the goal. It doesn't matter why you're here, it only matters that you are, and you're coming back tomorrow Content & activity is ancillary to the reason you're here. It's a byproduct, but will cause incremental growth. A project management system that is aimed at game development is unique, it will help games get built, it will attract developers, it can be used be a lone developer for productivity or groups for team management, it will inspire collaboration and open the door for all levels of game developers to do so with people from all of the world. It will integrate into the existing games section to provide a single base for game development communications: from teamwork, collaboration and project management directly to your fans and followers. Sorry I didn't read the other posts :( Anything important? :) Not sure if those walls of texts have more words than the great wall of china has bricks.

    Adoption

    Hey guys I'm very excited to announce that I have adopted Bob. For those of you who don't know, his parents were killed in an alleyway, presumably because someone didn't like the way the company was being run. Anyway, here's a pic of us That's my boy :ehh:
  7. So busy, but for the first time in a very long time, I've started writing for GDU again :) And by writing I mean, messing with the site. Nu stuff coming soon.

      Mark, how about if you make the game pages more easier to navigate and edit. Hell even add variation to the styles (Which some say coming soon)

    2. Marked

      Marked

      Uhuh... they're already easy to navigate. Lots of options for that. That'd be nice, but those things are way down on priority and will likely never be made. My priority is adding social functionality to keep game pages sustainably active by themselves.

      Actually I have site wide changes, including on the games pages, already coded up. Just need a spare few hours to clean them up before going live.

  8. The thing with jpeg is there's some variations, including jpg jpeg JPG JPEG That's why I asked you about the case. Maybe I missed some of these in my code. I'll have to look over it later.
  9. This is strange. I uploaded that picture no problem. I'll look into it when I can, but I've got a busy few days :/
  10. I thought you were being Mario. Also nice job trying to salvage the off-topic posts by adding that to the OP. Never seen that done before.
  11. You've come to the right place :yo: Welcome to GDU :thumbsup:
  12. You want to see what he sent me? This: http://imgur.com/gallery/ht80Z12 I was like damn, fits the profile. Move on. I feel like you just got here... or maybe I've been too busy to notice anything here this year.
  13. Big interview on Monday. Wish me luck.

  14. Wow. I literally thought you were a dude pretending to be a girl. You better hope Salty doesn't see this.
  15. I see you got my message :) I just tested it and it works fine for me. So lets see if we can debug it. I really really should have made descriptive errors come up rather than just "there was an unexpected error". Please post the following: Your browser Image size Image file extension, including case (upper or lower) er... that's all I can think of. We'll go from there. EDIT: Also please upload the images one by one and let me know if that works.
  16. Maybe there needs to be a lesson on what is spam. I don't want there to be rules but telling people to use common sense is apparently ineffective.
  17. @omar so your entire post was sarcasm and you posted this in a topic about stopping spam?
  18. I disagree with your entire post :) That's cool bro. You were born in a different century to most of us, which is a pretty good excuse :ok:
  19. I wish I had time to properly read through all of these :( It's definitely not stealing in the traditional sense, so we should never refer to piracy as that because it's misleading. There is no deprivation of property, there is no loss. I have always found it legally fascinating. When you take away laws made by government, and you revert to the laws of the land (ie common law) and judge must rely on precedent: The standard may well be: What loss was caused by the action? The purchase price? If by pirating GTAV I have caused a loss of $90NZD revenue, then the prosecutors must prove that I would have bought if I wasn't going to pirate it. Good luck with that. I believe we live in a unique time in history where we can pirate things, but it won't last. I think piracy is the thing that will drive efficient market allocation and force companies to change the way they do business, and when they do, it will benefit everyone. In the meantime, I'm torrenting the internet.
  20. Yo Bobblesauce, I've know added a delete button for the quotes :D Go nuts. Purge the nonbelievers. Er.. I mean spamtations.
  21. Yes we do. I've been endorsing piracy for ages, especially movies. It's in societies best interests to pirate stuff to force vendors to change their methods of delivery goods to the market. Did you know that the movie industry lots its shit over VCR tapes (...what you used to hire from the video store) coz they thought there were gone lose shit tons of money. They tried making them illegal. But then they made shit tons of money. Even with piracy increasing, their profits are going up, not down. They're greedy. They shouldn't be supported by way of paying for their product, but you should buy it for other reasons. Not to mention it's not technically illegal here, people just mistakenly think it is. Ofc the US thinks they can extend their jurisdiction to anywhere in the world, but that's optimistic in terms of individual piracy. Anyway, you're all banned for going off topic. I didn't read the topic much, but Kitsuki said no to Camtasia Studio and yes to windows movie maker, so don't listen to him/her. Use Camtasia Studio, and do so by pirating it.
  22. That's exactly right. Dat my quote. I'm not saying its entirely obvious :)
  23. I need to sit down with a cup of coffee before endevouring on reading one of Kitsuki's posts.

  24. Ok, read it. I'll probably put some guidelines up there next time, but they won't be strict. It shouldn't be strict, but commonsense hasn't always prevailed in this case. Nothing a bit of moderation can't fix though :) I don't actually read the quotes, so this got past me for a while :/
