UBON'S PROFILE

sleep don't pacify us until
daybreak sky lights up the grid we live in
dizzy when we talk so fast
fields of numbers streamin' past

What are you thinking about? (game development edition)

if you'd like a small guide on how to set up looping metadata for an rpg maker game, this came up from a quick search and seems pretty well-done.

offsite tutorial, but hey.

What are you thinking about right now?

here's a chiptune. none of that happened.

What are you thinking about right now?

I'm not going to get into my circumstances because, frankly, I don't trust you not to use them as ammunition at this point?

but using 'seek behavioural therapy' as some kind of trump card in an argument that didn't even need to happen is extraordinarily insensitive. don't pretend that it's something you're suggesting in good faith, either -- if you had genuine concerns about my mental health and didn't just want to gain ground in an argument through the most invasive means possible, you would have contacted me in private.

I've made fun of a lot of people here for using predictable tactics and getting caught up in bullshit, but this is the first time in a while I've actually been disgusted with the person I'm arguing with.

What are you thinking about right now?

I think that, similarly, 'mawk, you're being kind of a jerk right now' would have been more effective than a patronizing and hilariously pseudoscientific post telling me to seek therapy.

like, that's incredibly invasive and inappropriate. I don't disagree that this is a way bigger thing right now than it needs to be, but I'm honestly baffled at what you thought telling me I'm insane would accomplish.

What are you thinking about right now?

it's all good, I'm not gonna escalate this

anyway, nothing I could do right now would be so hilariously abrupt and disproportionate as that armchair psychoanalysis YM pulled out for... some reason????

What are you thinking about right now?

lmao now who needs to lighten up

'oh mawk criticized my joke, they must be mentally unhinged'

What are you thinking about right now?

nah

the way actual arguments get swept into this aggressive have-to-prove-we-don't-actually-care-by-laughing zone is one of the really frustrating things about this place, and it actually makes these situations way nastier and more drawn-out than they would be otherwise

What are you thinking about right now?

??? I'm not telling anybody to stop fighting me

it's literally over already and has been for pages, I'm just razzing people for being useless and unfunny in the aftermath and in doing so dragging it out way farther than it deserves

you must realize that compulsively commenting on everything that happens in an argument from the bleachers drags it out and makes it impossible to reach a useful and clean conclusion, yeah?

What are you thinking about right now?

like, fuck, start your own fights if you wanna boost your meme capital through edgy bystanding

the next time someone asks if rmmv will be able to import rmvxa projects i'll freak out

I mean, I can understand somebody being hopeful for that sort of thing, especially if they're not super familiar with rpg maker in general. you put a lot of work into something in one tool, you hear about a hot new tool on its way, you start looking for some way to make both facts work together nicely. I don't mind that the information's gonna take a while to get around.
