Can you say flame? Besides, spell-checking posts is tedious and annoying. We all wish everybody would be perfect, but they aren't, and we're not, and there's no reason to hold people to those standards. Also, many of the people here are in the basic learning stage. I looked through the drawer where I keep all the art of mine that I still have, and most of it was complete crap. I was in a more basic learning stage then. I will say that I am much better at working with/helping newbies/learners than most people on this forum, who will simply treat them like dirt. You should ecnourage people's efforts, while offering help and criticism. Otherwise, you have absolutely no right to complain about it.
I agree mostly with Moldorma. My Zelda fan game is different however because it uses ZFGC style. >_> which is what they were made for so... its not suck. Also my fan game does not use epic words... just "Hylian Chronicles" simple and short. And the story is simple too. Your a deku boy and your hungry late at night. So you must sneak into town avoiding curfew patrol and bashing up moblins and other enemies to steal some food from the pub.
Other than that you both are completely correct. Especially about the crashing laptop
Thank you for your blatant advertising.
Also, guess what? 60% of people don't make proper, regular backups. We're all lazy. It's bad, but it's done. And if we do make backups, often are personal or professional files/documents have a higher priority than our fangame-related ones.
EDIT: By the way, "short rant" is a paradox. Following your logic, why should I believe your post has any value if you title it something that is factually impossible?
I certainly wouldn't call my first post long. Especially for a "rant". Ok, this is the kind of thing that makes me mad. Let's shred your post, shall we? Besides, spell-checking posts is tedious and annoying.
Yep, so hard. It's so hard to see "plz" and read through it carefully and write "Please". Yep, SO tedious. It's even more tedious to copy and paste an entire paragraph in MSWord and hit the spell check button to do it for you. Look, I don't mind the occasional blunder, but it's just unacceptable for the most part. We all wish everybody would be perfect, but they aren't, and we're not, and there's no reason to hold people to those standards.
Well, not only is this false, but there is plenty of reason for those people to hold those standards to themselves. How about self image? Anyway, do you realize how hard it is to read through a post littered with plz and u and r? Do you realize how annoying it is to keep up with a fan game for weeks and months to have it all lost in a miserable laptop crash? Also, many of the people here are in the basic learning stage. I looked through the drawer where I keep all the art of mine that I still have, and most of it was complete crap. I was in a more basic learning stage then.

Firstly, don't tell me what rights I have and don't have. I have whatever freedom I want to !@#$% about it. I don't see why many people in this forum go by the "ooh let's all be nice and politically correct and not point out problems as they are exactly." I'd rather be harsh and honest then anything else. Secondly, If you aren't experienced enough, you don't start a game - you wait until you are experienced enough. Do you realize the number of years it took for Nintendo to make Twilight Princess? Ok, so how do you expect some random 12 year old to make a 2d adaptation of that by himself? Look, would you attempt to climb Everest in your state? No, unless you're stupid. Also, guess what? 60% of people don't make proper, regular backups. We're all lazy. It's bad, but it's done. And if we do make backups, often are personal or professional files/documents have a higher priority than our fangame-related ones.
Yep, hard to do. Ctrl+C and Ctrl+v, you're done. Honestly, just copy and paste the file in another directory. That can put a huge dent in it. Then, every major update burn it to a disc, or upload it to a website. It's so simple, honestly. But calling people who don;t know how to do things f**ktards is like saying that people who are too short to reach things on shelves are f**ktards for asking for help if you happent o be walking by, rather than going and getting a chair to stand on.
Well, this makes sense. Someone can learn something - you can teach people things. People who are short can't just magically get taller. I added number 6.
