MAGI'S PROFILE

author=Kaempfer
"It was just a joke!" cries Magi to this day, but fuck that. It was mean-spirited and unnecessary.

You can learn the basics of about any programming language in about a week, but programming consists of so much more than simply just knowing a language. To actually be effective it's important to understand the theory behind programming languages, how they interact with the hardware and OS, as well as good optimization practices. These things only come with experience and time.

That said, if you're completely new it's probably safe to jump in head-first for any language at about the month mark, but don't expect to write a lot of clean or efficient code. It will be a painful and sometimes frustrating process. That said, RGSS isn't a true programming language and the route to learning and mastering it will be much faster, but it will be less useful to you moving ahead if you decide to stop using RMVX Ace.

Was that last paragraph talking about Polymorphous Perversity by any chance? :P

I hope not

GGZ was kind of like the "indies" of the RM community, and pumped out some very memorable games (Felix Trapper was my frikxinG boy) but tried too hard to be an exclusive place. I never was able to get past forum registration because Wishmoo would cross-check names from communities she was "feuding" with before allowing them access. It was a weird time, but nevertheless I was still sad to see the site finally go.
