Necros

Cool! I love flash sites for very visual mediums like Quake levels. Looks nice and gives you a feeling of polish when looking around. Nice work! 
Necros 
Im jealous. Very cool!

How easy is it to do that kind of website? Where do I find tutorials? 
 
I just added a filter-as-you-type on the Singleplayer Maps listing: http://www.quaddicted.com/spmaps.html
It's great fun so check it out! 
 
Neat! Looks like a very quick way to get to what you want. 
Sprit 
Very neat. I already forgot about some maps of mine but you have them. 
 
necros: Flash, the nunchucks of the internet. ;)
Still looking forward to your vertical map, though.

Spirit: Seems like a nice feature, indeed. 
Thanks :) 
kinda stuck on the vertical map (which isn't really a vertical map anymore). can't think of a cool way to end it. :S 
Necros 
Please end it vertically, thx. 
Thank You Negke 
 
Lol 
what does that even mean? :P 
Hmm 
Exit by uber fall damage? 
Huh 
I'm from Yorkshire - Bradford.

But haven't been back there in about a year. 
Heh 
My mothers parents are from Bradford.

My great grandmother died when she was 104 years old. And she lived in Bradford all her life. She was assigned a care worker when she was in her mid - late nineties because she lived right in the middle of the city (which is fairly rough really) on her own, often leaving the door unlocked and all that kind of stuff. The care worker was supposed to go round and get her out of bed and make her a cup of tea in the morning, but what really happened was the care worker would get there at seven in the morning to find her awake and waiting with a brew on.

at the very top, let the player jump back down to the bottom floor which has transformed into an exit teleporter? (after a suitable end combat ofc!) 
Hmm 
That's what I said...

:( 
Lol?

Something For The "being An Ass Is So FunnyHAHAAHA" People 
Meh. 
Whatever. I couldn't even bring myself to skim that, but I scrolled down to the 5 rules or wtf they're supposed to be.

Look, it's simple, there is a world of difference between banter and abuse, between taking the piss between people who know each other (even just in an online context) and active hostility.

(And personally for me, in the online arena, there is a clear line between taking the piss out of what you know about someone online, and crossing the boundary into personal information...)

My offline mates and I take the piss all the time, same with people I get on with online - and that includes you #func_terrafusion crowd. I respect almost everyone involved in this little scene, and like quite a few of you, from what I've seen online anyway. Mappers, players, site maintainers, commentators, people who just say the occasional thing of interest or humour - there is a bond (albeit often a faint one) there. Any banter that goes on is within the context of that bond, within the context of the community.

There has ALWAYS been piss-taking and banter in this community, and hopefully there always will. It's a good laugh and it encourages me to be part of it.

Ugh, there may be more later. FFS. 
 
In certain cases, there's a level of familiarity that I'm not really comfortable with. That's all. Joking around with your friends in a bar is a whole different thing - you know each very well and nobody is going to take something the wrong way. Why would they?

Online ... I don't know you from any other stranger I might meet on the street. "Shambler"? "czg"? These are words in a web browser. I have zero connection to you as a person, and vice versa. So to joke around with me the same way you would with your real life friends isn't always appropriate. Know what I mean?

Anyway, it doesn't really matter I suppose. I just don't see myself as having the same liberties with online strangers as I do with real life friends. 
Ditto 
TBH I dont really mind, but its not always easy to tell when someone is making a joke and taking the piss out of me.

So someone says something unpleasant, I go off the handle, then everyone says "ooh, well you shouldnt take it so seriously" then I feel like an idiot for going off the handle.

And everybody laughs at me anyway, I cant win.

But I'm not about to start winding people up for kicks, so that makes me a _______ !

(fill in blank with your own ending for that sentance)

Anyway I'm sensitive, so just BACK OFF, OK?!?!?! Dont touch me. 
Shambler 
Your mamma is so fat that:

A - I rolled over three times and I was still on top of the bitch

B - She gets up off the sofa once a week and buildings fall down in Dubai

C - ______________________.

a weird face in the glance of two homs
they served me a new artobject as unfinished
the back of a swine, cut midthrough and
a mirror at the break of the corps.
if I hadn't tried twice, I would be wise. 
 
I have a hard time not taking the piss, both online and off. It's almost always meant with love though. Unless it's directed at shambler.



can not stop 
Familiarity & Piss-taking Etc 
Seems to me that most of the "friction" has been between relatively new members and old timers... how you interpret the tone of what's being written here will undoubtedly be colored by if you're fresh or have been around for a decade.
