So we hope you enjoy our little community, and that almost nothing in this topic keeps you away or anything. We are really a nice group of people once you get to know us.

In other words, things seem to be getting off topic here.

Have a nice day.

Edit: To avoid breaking the rules and typing another post, an edit will have to do.

1: It has been over two weeks. Furthermore, you are all starting to get off topic in here, the Introductions section.

2: I apologize myself, but my apology is that I can not apologize for that. In fact, I see no reason for anyone to apologize for what you are asking. Yes, I might seem harsh right now, but there is no way that I can apologize for "sending you away," especially when it was your choice to leave. Perhaps the reason why nobody wanted to work on the Community Hack before you left was because you were too harsh on them, and they did not like the idea of having everything that they were to say rejected? You may get an apology from everyone else, but I am sorry to say that it will not be from me. Insulting us, and then asking for an apology? Now, I shall not talk about this any more, even if you ask me to.

3: And here ends my edit, as I do not want to break the rules by posting too much in here.
Oh yeah baby, £ me harder.

Part of the problem comes from trying to do too much. One hacking project is more than enough for a forum this size. Trying to start clan hacks wasn't ever going to go anywhere, just as the gs mario rpg hack wasn't ever going to go anywhere, because if we can't even complete one hack, there is no legitimate reason to start thinking about others and expect them to get done. The low productivity on the CH is due chiefly to a lack of focus or direction. When you made me project leader, I tried to jumpstart the project by restructuring the way the forums are set up to promote some form of direction, instead of idly going from thread to thread. I think it was generally accepted, but it hasn't been implemented yet, and I haven't had the time to work on this project lately, anyway.

That said... How about we make a deal? If people start actually working on the CH, you come back to the forums. Does that sound fair?
I still check in from time to time as you can see, mainly checking to see if there's a new release.  Once the editor gets sprite importing, I'll become regular again.

I suppose I might come back earlier if I get a public apology from everyone for driving me off the deep end like that.  Even IF there were multiple projects, it does not excuse them from blowing each and every one of them off so as to spam in the forum games section.

Part of the problem comes from your harsh criteria. It really is an instant source of demotivation. Much better to take all (or at least the ones that aren't blatantly trolling or just stupid) submissions and clean them up after. The people who put honest effort into their work are turned off by the harsh criteria, while others will (as you've seen) post/send in their submissions anyway, then complain when you point out that mages don't wear heavy armour or that Adepts can't have two elements. There's not much we can do to get rid of that last group of submissions/submitters; criteria doesn't work on them. However, we can encourage the other group; as you may have noticed, things picked up a bit when leaf took over.
