  1. Stop trying to by-pass the site being down by blocking JavaScript you naughty, naughty children.
  2. @Azkanan: > Didn't you post some stupid picture as the main news header about Cory being a little twat, because you two had a fight? Having a fight generally means you can actually do something back. He posted something in a place I had no access. I did the same. The double-standards when it comes to power abuse are pretty glaring. Alan spams bullshit, changes everyone's names, leaves insults in the news box & threads, and leaves the entire forum layout decimated with his activities. I leave a little joke in the news box and suddenly I’m the bad guy here? Don’t get me wrong. Just because I’m serious about Eclipse’s image doesn’t mean I’m not up for a joke. I simply think everything should be done in moderation. I also believe that Alan’s brand of “humour” is suitable in the confines of your own bedroom, not a public resource with 35,000 users.
  3. Bitter? No. I don't expect anything more from you. Disappointed? Yes. Regardless of your attitude you've always claimed you do your best for the community and want to help it develop as a fun place to be. Apparently to you that means taking away the last remaining semblance we have to a development community and plunging us full-force in to the pants-on-head retardedness of 4chan. Sure, we have a handful of members who are here for the community. You're completely overlooking the majority of the silent members who are here to develop video games, however. You're the poster child for this old generation of users who no longer use the community for their own development needs and instead spend their time adversely affecting the new generations by being loud, obnoxious and generally childish. The exact same things happen in real life, and I'm disappointed it's becoming increasingly common on Eclipse. I’m constantly reading about the older generation completely buggering the younger ones with University fees, rising debt and cuts to benefits all while completely ignoring their own past reliance on these systems. Just because you don’t use this community for its purpose doesn’t mean it has none. I took a break from development of the website and engine over a year ago. I stepped down to let other people handle things for a while. What do we get? You changing people’s names, breaking the shoutbox and pissing off our regulars. Were any bugs fixed in the engine? Were any of the glaring breaks in the page layout ever fixed by anyone? Was documentation expanded upon or new resources developed by anyone? Were any measures put in place to handle the increasing repeated questions with tutorials or an expanding FAQ? No. The simple fact is that I’m the only guy who was doing anything. If you want to sit around pissing people off maybe you shouldn’t do it to the only person who was building the playground you so loved to fuck around in. People are right when they claim that Eclipse is stale and falling apart. Perhaps they should get over their petty rivalries, shrug the chips off their shoulders and find out the _real_ reasons this is happening.

    Is VB6 broken?

    If your changes aren't active in the compiled binary then you're obviously doing something wrong.

    @Azkanan: > Find her address, do a Google Maps street view and e-mail her a screenshot of you looking through her living room window. Then get her drunk.
  6. @Batman: > You mean my £30 a month contract iphone @Batman: > Or do you assume that every owner of an apple product mindlessly spends cash for the sake of it. Kind of answered your own question there. @Batman: > so you're saying wanting to feed myself is part of my problem? Spending money you don't have when you already owe more than £600 to your parents. @Batman: > 2 years of BTEC in college, 3 years of computer science in university and half a year working for one of the biggest technology companies in the world So you're fully educated to a degree level in _computer science_ and yet you still value your time so poorly that you'd rather watch these trailers than do a couple of hours overtime a week - all whilst complaining about your current financial state to an online forum? @Batman: > I rather enjoy making you run around, keeping things interesting and not treating everyone like they're made out of stone. Having you as an administrator on this forum is like looking after a 5 year old child. I work hard to make a play area which allows everyone to have fun in their own way. People do constructive things, talk amongst themselves about their project and goals. Then you come in. You shit yourself, take the nappy and start whirling it around. You start screaming, throwing shit around and generally pissing everyone off. Whilst you're doing all of this you're obviously affecting everyone else's free time. When you're done you refuse to clean it up, vow to do it again, then fall asleep on the floor in a puddle of your own excrement. After all that I need to spend my time cleaning up after you rather than spending my time helping out the people who would like assistance, guidance or just a quiet place to work on their own stuff. You're the worst kind of person. You're selfish and try and pass it off as an attractive character trait. @Batman: > Just because you don't like something doesn't mean everyone wants to hear your opinion. The juxtaposition of your rant about the state of your personal finances and your pride of finding this app was just too beautiful to leave alone, my friend.
  7. Go ask on a C# forum.

    Eating out when you're a teenager is just awkward. Neither of you are old and boring enough to pull that off. Get drunk.
  9. It's called using an outdated engine which was never truly supported when it was actually active.

  12. @Zonova: > That really only applies to those in the IT field. You're going to need a degree for most other jobs. And even in the IT field, a degree can still help, if only to help you better understand the subject. It's a case of having education or experience and most people now have education. That instantly puts you in the majority. To put yourself ahead you need to have something other people don't. That means getting in some sort of experience. You can do that either through personal projects, volunteer working, apprenticeships or internships. Of course none of these things are fashionable so everything gets shoe-horned in to expensive degrees giving us a huge amount of scholars with absolutely no experience in the field. Every single person I see going on to the News to complain about the current state of the job market has done nothing to further themselves. All they do is cry about how they have a degree and can't find a job straight out of University. It's the older generations fault for pushing so many people in to getting a degree and it's the fault of the younger generations for being so God damned flaccid about everything. Back in their days if you had a degree you had a job. If you have an entire generation which is pushed in to this level of education it devalues the degrees because everyone has one. What's that saying from _The Incredibles_? "And when everyone's super, no-one will be." Younger people can't get a job because they've got nothing on the older people who were laid off and are now looking for a new job. I can understand that. It must be frustrating to not only be having to head off people with the exact same degree but also people with 20 years experience on top of that. Still, the amount of spoilt kids coming out of this generation is honestly mind-boggling. I've come across far too many kids in their late teens who don't know how to prepare a simple meal or handle any sort of finances. Spoiling your children simply causes them to develop in to needy, selfish adults who are a drain on society as a whole. Sending these children off to University so they can be irresponsible fools without parent supervision is plain silly. @Batman: > I'm glad you are so successful robin. You must be the only guy in the world with a full time job. You work so hard I'm surprised all these other none working hard people don't give you the respect you deserve. If you're having to spend your free time watching adverts for £0.10 a day on your £600 iPhone because your full-time job doesn't pay well enough for you to keep your current living standard without selling your computer to your parents then you're obviously a part of the problem, not the solution. Insult me all you want. Maybe if you'd spent the last 6 years using Eclipse to develop your skills rather than throwing shit around, have hissy fits every so often and leaving messes for me to clean up you wouldn't be excitedly sharing dead-end tasks which pay less than your average Chinese factory job.
  13. You're not going to get many applicants. If you want a graphics designer to take an interest. That means offering something you can't get elsewhere. No offence but your websites aren't exactly going to have designers falling over themselves to take over doing most of the work on. Get a popular product first, then try finding someone. Or actually make some friends who know what they're doing and lean on them.

    Selling?

    Item needs a cost, shop needs a buy-back rate set.
  15. That's because I know how many awesome jobs are available to those who have the skills to fill them. Education means very little. I went straight in to a senior development position straight out of college, barely scraping a pass in a development BTEC. I managed to get in to a post-graduate position because I don't talk like an idiot and actually did research and preperation for the interview. Every single person I've ever talked to who complained about there being no jobs had spent about 5 minutes looking through RetailJobs.co.uk and had put zero effort in to building their key skills or presentation abilities. You may be an exception, in which case my sharp tongue is a bit out of line. I'm just generally frustrated by the state of our generation.
  16. @Azkanan: > Well, on the upper hand, this is helpful - just a little - for the jobless. > > I am actively looking for work, I've applied for a good of jobs actually, but I'm still not getting through. I live on £50 a week, £25 of which I pay for board. So I have £25 left, £5-10 I have to spend on bus tickets when I'm looking for work. > > That's £10 of money that I get to spend on stuff… £5 of which I put into savings. > > This £2/hour thing sound pretty useful. > > Edit; > Well, this is easy. All I have to do is spend
  17. @JeffSventora: > Just by taking a look at the booming popularity of of Project Vertigo, I wouldn't be surprised if it took the cake. Yes, those 2 games really have a huge following. :P
  18. @Batman: > People not seeing the big picture, an hour a day on your phone will make you an extra $60 a month, more productive than browsing 4chan, no? Or I could spend an hour a day on my phone doing over-time at work. Free time is the most valuable thing you can ever have because you can never get more of it. This silly thing is only suitable to people who are 13 years old and refuse to get a real job or bums.
  19. Listening to you two talk about 'sluts' and 'whores' is the most cringe-worthy thing I've ever come across.
  20. Stop basing your relationships on shallow aesthetics and meet someone you actually form a bond with, then.
  21. $2 an hour? Your time isn't worth that much, Alan. ;]
