SILVER4DONUTS'S PROFILE

The following is a message for all three forums.

If you have been living under a rock or just have been too dumb to realize, that I've been gone for sometime and have just recently came back around these parts. After all the hate mail / bashing posts I have had in the past recent days, I had no choice to leave for awhile...to clear my head.

In the past few days it has became very clear to me that changes are needed in order to keep my sanity and work ethic as I strive forward to completing what appears to be a project on the verge of completion. Which if it goes thru, will be my first completed game and first time I have released a game to the public in over 6 long years.

Monopoly has single handily revived which I thought was something I could never get back since 2004, a determined work ethic and overall joy in getting up to work on my projects, it's much simple style and colorful design has given me new life and more awareness on what rm2k3 games should really be about! The fun factor, nothing more.

With that I have learned lessons on what and what not to do, and this has turned myself around, what was once a joke of a creator...has returned to his old self.

Although this is somewhat premature as we are still in the thick of things, problems have arisen, not will the game itself...but those are willing to receive it.

Various people and forums have pretty muched turned me off in all levels and aspects, and I will not point out certain people as you know who you are. But from what you said that I was what was wrong with game making, it is indeed YOU people that is wrong with game making itself, you put down those who are making things for your petty fun. How is that fun?

It just baffles my mind of some of the idiocy that goes on here in the forums, it really does.

Which is why I have decided to do the following with all three forums. (And I know of what I'm saying may result in a warn or ban...but I don't give a shit anymore!!!)

Gaming World
From now on I will not be coming by anymore, unless it is to post a shot / movie, make a game thread or post the odd thing in someone's project, you have pretty much killed what was great about game making and socializing with other people. You are the worst of the three boards. Shame on you! I have people giving me hate mail for something that isn't even out yet!!! People making topics of a FINISH OR BE BANNED shit, and my favorite part of all!!! One day you go from a hero that finally posted some damn gameplay shots...to the next questioning that if the bloody game is real or not. And now...being on the 5th month at 65% done with movies and shots galore. YOU STILL THINK IT'S NOT REAL!!! GOD!!!

However I will say this...things have improved slightly ever since the early part of the year, some of you have turned around. And for that...I say thank you. But we are a long way to fully seeing eye to eye again. Hopefully Monopolo's release will silence everyone. But I doubt that. I don't even think Soul Ninja or whatever game that is done next will do so either.

And I'm still one of the worst members here? Please.

So for that, I'm going to take GZ advice. Very rarely will I swing by. Unless it's something ground breaking, or posting about someone's else game. Like needing any help on a boss. I'm outta here.

RM Network
You guys have actually been pretty good to me despite of all of this stuff, which I have no beef with you guys. The only thing is that...I don't know a lot of you very well to really stay around here anymore. Also most of the members from GW are here too, so...um...you get the idea. Will probably swing by once Monopolo is done. But I need to leave you guys. Remember! You guys are awesome, it's just...I don't know anyone here. So goodbye! ^^

Star Ocean Eternity
I have known some of you ever since the old days of Claude Is A Jerk, and I guess I should thank that site because it made be discover not just rm2k3, but all of you as well. And I have seen it all! From the anime series, to the rise and fall of some sites / members, to SO3. Yep...it's been a hell of a ride.

But now it seems that people have changed and we have grown farther apart as a group. The only members that I see a lot around here are Jesse & Cutepiku, everyone else is different or new. We don't talk about the same thing anymore, and you would think with me FINALLY getting a XBox 360 and be able to get Star Ocean 4 now. I don't really know anymore, because my brother could sell it any moment. Which is also why I'm a bit scared to buy any Xbox games.

Whenever I look at this black forum, I see nothing from the old days, the days of Zelnack, Heavenly Orb, the classic days. And despite they will always be there with me. I have to move on, and so does everyone else. If Monopolo has shown me anything, is that change is sometimes a good thing. And you can't be afraid of what is to come and what has passed. Move on and deal with.

It really does suck, because this post seems like a stab in the back. But times have changed, and so have I. It sucks to leave you guys for good...but I have no choice.

Leno, Hullo, Dragon Eyes...they are the fallen people I no longer see, and Reebi seems to be up there now. I guess I should add my name up there.

If Monopoly gets done, I'm not sure if I will post the thread here, as I'm questioning that. But if I do. I will post the link to it! ^^



---

I do once again realize that I will be banned for this. (probably on GW) but that is the whole story. Monopolo is getting made, and I have now left RMN & SOE.

Hopefully this hate mail / bashing shit can end, and we can be friends again. But until then, I'm going to have fun and work on the Monopolo, so we can release it quicker! ^^

P.S: Strangeluv it's Oct 1 tomorrow, but fuck man I will never forgive you if I'm banned because I missed the date. People change their release dates all the time! The sooner the better now. But I also don't wanna rush. As long as I'm making progress, then that's all I can do. Nothing more. And speaking of progress, I'm going to make some more. ^^

The trading system in full effect! As this took FOREVER to finally get done. God, this was probably the toughest fu*ker to do in my entire time on RM2k3. Wow. The other day I was trading for Boardwalk and for some reason got Park Place (and it was mortgaged) when I gave it back...I still had them! ****!!! So it works now.

God damn, everyone here has some awesome shots. Makes my movie look bad. :P

Too bad I was working all today...I wanted to play some games.

Hopefully we have another one of these in the future...this was actually kind of fun / cool to see all the interesting games and things people have been doing...it's almost like E3, just not as big! :)

...But I feel that something is wrong with me as of late...ever since a couple of years ago, I just don't play games anymore...I just am too lazy to turn on the power switch or pick up a controller, or whatever. This comes to RM games too. I'm learning how to get back into the action again, but I dunno...it's becoming a turn off a bit.

Good to also know what the hell Neok's been cooking up. I was wondering what he was doing.

Great job guys! ;D

Been playing Sacred Earth: Bonds with a bit of mixed emotions. It's a bit hard to say this but...I like the demo more then this. It's still a good game thought. But the music choices / coding problems kind of turn me a bit off. Still nice!

Other then that, it's business like usual. And I lost my 5 star rating. (Probably cause of yesterday)

I would like to play some more games, but business comes first. Sorry guys. But hey! When I finish, I'll be playing some more games for a bit just to take a break. ^^

I shall beat nukem, unless all hell freezes over. ^^
