Whenever I see one of these recruitment threads, I get a twitch in my eye.

I was one of these people, or at least I was of their kin. I had huge ambitions abiut game dev, but no real know how of how to actualize them, so I kind of grasped for straws desparately. Perhaps not so desparately as to ask for a team, but I'd chuck around ideas and ask people what they thought, and then spend less time actually pulling through with it. Experience pushing through those creative boundaries can do you real wonders. Granted, I didn't have an old hand to prod me into submission - I'd like to think I'd have gladly taken to it - but I guess it was just the beginning of a process that would allow the game making to begin actually making sense, instead of being some mythological carrot on a stick dangled just out of my reach. I pray the best for anyone who wants to make it to where they wanna be, dev wise. The long short - perseverance and hard work working on a solo dig to conpletion is pretty much the whole journey. From then on, the huge mountainous terrain becomes much more manageable and less hideously severe. I've got the RMN community to thank for that. Helping me through. You guys bring a tear to a grown man's proverbial eye. When you're not tearing me apart like Lisa.

But it's not fair, since all developers who have finished a game are clearly on steroids. Think about the young natties for Aremen's sake!
