ELLIEJANE'S PROFILE

A day early, sorry.

Issue 2 is almost ready (6.5 pages left to go, with 4.5 of those planned out ready to write, just need to find content to promote in the other two pages - one a full page, one a columned page for small pieces). Let me know if there is ANYTHING you want me to promote or feature - contests in particular.

Yo Mamma would have been more witty, if that still exists.

Hmm. RPG Maker 2000 is now listed as "out of stock" on Enterbrain's Japanese website. You can buy it from a third-party vendor like Amazon though. Just need to find one who's selling it. (Good luck?)

However, Enterbrain is run by humans who make a living selling software, not terms-of-service-enforcement lawbots. I have a feeling that if you emailed them and were like "Hey I want to buy the old version of this software instead of stealing it like everyone else does, and then I want to use it in exactly the same way you're letting people use the newer versions" they'd be like "Cool, send us money."

You'd think, but they really don't give a shit. Just like if you offer to pay to use their graphics in other engines.

There's useful criticism, which is great, but then there's a particular RPG Maker brand of criticism by people with an apparent lack or empathy or social skills who make no room for feelings and push for everything to be improved at all costs. Tbh if we listened to such people all the time we'd never get anything finished, it's one thing being a perfectionist oneself without having to deal with others. There's a place for criticism and there's a place for "actually that's OK, I like that".
