8 Bit Survivor - Page 3

Yeah, that was a bit hasty. But MFD is a forgiving soul (maybe) and probably won't come down on you. Keep making comments on Rai though and you're facing the wrath of shiney. 'tis a dangerous place to be, aye.

But since you asked so nicely, here's a link to the -other- best sprite comic, IMHO.

http://captainsnes.keenspace.com

Enjoy.

Ok, I subjected myself to the comic. And since their weren't many there, I read them all.

I didn't like it. I found it immature, vulgar and childish...

I wanted to stop reading...but I didn't. Admitedly, some of it was funny, but it was few and far between.

Oh and from what I've seen Jon, RaiRai doesn't need shiney to come to her rescue, she's a force to be reckoned in and of herself.

Well, Rai, I figured if you're publically telling me the problems you have with me breaking the rules, I can publically tell you the problems I have with the rules. And I'm not just trying to argue everything you say about the rules, I really just don't agree most everything you say about the rules.

But it's fine. I don't disagree enough with the rules to break them. No one's going to rock to the cubicle.

Interesting, Static Hamster, that my comic is like a hateful addiction... like eatting those marshmellow peeps. What were the ones you did find funny, out of curiosuity?

And See? Static Hamster and BraveFencer gave me their honest opinions, no flamming, no "lol it suck a dickox," just the truth on how they really feel. And I can respect that, even if they don't think it's a good comic.

On a completely unrelated note, Static and Brave are jerks.

He still could be a jackass Jon, if he meant it in the way I thought he did, but most likely not, and I'll just blame it on peer pressure to be seen as cool on the forums by insulting someone.

And much appreciated on the link.

Rai is a moderator, which makes her an authority figure. You are effectively telling a police officer/judge what problems you have with the law. No matter what, they will be enforced.

I can tell you I found that funny. I liked the run on gag with the phone, but to remember more I would have to go back; and I am not going back.

And I like to finish everything I start, no matter how horrible it is. I've always said, if I can finish watching the movie Showgirls, I can finish anything. And believe me Showgirls is the most horrible experience out there. *shivers*

That would probably be true with your logic Bubbleman, except for one thing.

RaiRai's a mod. So your argument is pointless.
Also, reasonably good comic overall, though I could find myself not laughing for periods of time longer than with other comics. Certainly, the first comics were almost all "laugh-a-lots" but that's because with first comics you get as much time to make them funny as you need. But after those comics...things tend to get from good, to okay, to sucking like there's no tommorow.
But those are minor beefs. Just keep jokes original, unique and tell a story and things should go well for you.
And another thing.
Don't make an ass out of yourself.

I'm publically telling you about them because it's something that a lot of people can learn from. Yes, you're being used as an example. And the reason is because of the blatent disregard for the rules here. If you admit that you're in the wrong and accept you can do better at following the rules, we wouldn't have a problem.

Your name calling is to stop NOW. And if it doesn't, you'll be recieving a PM from me.

And Cyclone 'RaiRai's a mod. Mod's get to make as huge asses out of themselves as they want because they can't be banned. So your argument is pointless' - as far as I've seen I've not made an ass out of myself. I'm enforcing the rules of Iron Fistiness as is my role as a mod. The role of the user is to abide by them.

Again, if people have problems with ANY of this, PM me. Any further posts on this subject matter will be henceforth deleted from threads. Thankyou.

Except this one.

Way to disrespect a mod. Arguing her publicly, flaunting your refusal to adhere to guidelines everyone else is fine with? This ain't no god damn democracy, and if this is how you INTRODUCE yourself it would really save a whole lot of time to just ban you now and write you off. It would certainly save a lot of time and annoyance, with the added bonus of you being forgotten by tomorrow.

That being said, I don't know why I've stayed my hand, aside from that you haven't received the customary official warning or temporary ban. Welcome to 8BT forums, you have already been officially warned, if you didn't catch the hint from RaiRai you can catch the obvious shit from me. Knock off the disrespect, RaiRai has been here and will be here longer than you or any other members of this thread. She represents Brian and his decisions and authority, so by ignoring her you also ignore him.

It stops or you will disappear.

And to whomever the hell said "mods can make as big asses of themselves as they want" - why should we have to when you can more than do it yourself? That was a very stupid way to phrase your point. Suggestion, rephrase/edit/back down.

Thank you all for posting,I have found this topic to be very entertaining,and was very well worth the 5 dollars I had to pay for looking at it.(wait,the rest of you didnt have to pay?)

No disrepect intended toward RaiRai, Shiney. I just disagreed with the rules. I stated my opinion. I know. This isn't my forum. I don't pay for the website, thus I don't have right to tell you how to run this forum, or how things should go.

But I'm not going to change my personality so I can fit snugly into a community if I feel the way I act is justified. Yes, I did insult someone, but it was because I felt at the time he was disrepecting me. And I did double post, but only because I felt I had some comedic/practical purpose for posting again. I'm not trying to break the rules, and I'm not trying to make anyone's time on these board unenjoyable. I am what I am, and what I think I am is right. It's how we all live with ourselves, I think.

Hamster- "Showgirls" might have been a bad movie, but at least there were boobs. And much appreciated for telling me your favorite. I like to get feedback on my comics to know what comedic direction I should be heading. In a sense, I will agree my comics are sometimes a little over the top in vulgarness and little too often (vomit, sex, gay jokes, Hardman). And sometimes I get the feeling I'm just doing cheap comedy. However, my goal is to make it a mix of all types of jokes, not just one. For example, I think my 8-bit theatre one wasn't really vulgar as it was just... non-vulgar.

Cyclone, advice noted, and much appreciated for reading my comic and giving feedback.
