I quit because of this exact reason i come back a year later and see things are the same old way
|
Y'know, this is the same reason I quit too. Today someone asked me to come back. He said things have improved much, people are more friendly. now that I'm here visiting again I've realised nothing has changed and after reading some 30 threads around this forum I still dont wanna be here. It's not worth trying to mod Renegade for most of these ungratful little brats.
Keep it up guys, the community will be dead within the year.
What you need to learn to do is to stop flaming left, right and center. If someone makes somthing constructive for Renegade, even if they're just starting out, dont great it with "oh that looks shit" or "that's crap, you're a n00b aint ya". If ya keep going like that people just wont bother trying and you will have no new maps or mods and thats it. Dead Renegade.
Instead try suggesting improvments to the persons projects. The best examples I've seen were posted by Dante, for example:

remember the engine is awesome, but don't waste all your poly's on moving objects, keep them for eyecandy rather than for vehicles, you can cut that model down to 900 polys and retain its detail through the skin.

here he's suggesting to put more effort into rationing out of polys and putting more detail into skins. This is good advice. Saying "oh, that's high poly, that's gonna lag the game" is not good advice, it's more like stating the obvious and is more likly to spark an argument.
One last thing I must say, stop flaming people because of their online grammar!! People make mistakes, people speek other languages, people may be 8 years old or may not have l337 7Yp1n6 5k1LL5 or whatever, DONT FLAME THEM FOR IT! It makes them feel bad and they probably wont come back! Moderators have a duty to keep posts like this off the forums!

Learn how to fucking spell or don't come posting here.

Dont get me wrong, I'm not flaming whoever moderates (if anyone does) these forums, but a little moderation of this place would improve it in an unprecidented scale. Moderators have the power to stop arguments when they're just starting by locking threads, or making the place better by deleting arguments that have taken place. A forum this size would take 1 moderator no more than half an hour each day to keep "clean and tidy".
Well, that is all. I can only hope someone with power notices this post and starts to improve this place instead of this post just disappearing into oblivion. It wont take much to make this forum a nice one to visit. But if it stays as it is, it's not the place I would wanna visit again. sorry.
