I am a quitter

[Danya]

Yeah I was well aware that almost every teenager and his dog wants to be in the games industry, and that's why I went for the degree I did (Games Design) which has it's positives and negatives. I'm a jack of all trades (animate, texture, model, light, post production) yet not specialist in any. The course was fairly new and there weren't that many that graduated this year, however there is a huge wad of people now on the course behind me, so i'm kind of racing against time.

Only thing I can do at the mo is work on my portfolio and when Half-Life 2 is released I hope to do some mod work...raising my profile a bit and suchlike.

One thing that was suggested to us actually is freelance animation as apparantly it's great for cv's and getting 'around a bit'. Certainly something i'm looking into.

Problem is Bullitt, the games industry in the UK is in a bit of a state atm. Things like Acclaim going tits up and countless smaller outfits dying means there's a serious glut of people on the market, most with a lot more experience than people like you who are fresh out of uni. Employers can afford to be quite picky because there are so many people about.

Really in this industry experience and knowing people counts for a hell of a lot more than degrees, it's just the way it is.

Ah but you see retaada, like in most other environments, the internet has its own particular food chain. At the top you have the cognoscenti and the ***** - no natural predators and have the choice of many juicy victims further down. A bit further down you get to the pedants, still got plenty to eat thanks to the muppets a bit further down, but shouldn't really mess with anyone further up for fear of getting torn apart. Then of course you have your common or garden retard. Thanks to increased internet availibility the ranks of retards are swelling, keeping everyone further up nice and fed.

However, recently there has become a new grouping below the retards - the people who put their MMORPG exploits in their internet forum signatures.

In short, you're in no fucking position to pity anyone. Cock.

Lmao so you think your above me? keep dreaming kid.

Whats this about exploits? never seen it in a sig. Cock.

Also abit sad how you think the internet has its own food chain... see a shrink

 

[nath]

Totem lvl 37 Shaman- WoW

Wild lvl 14 Bard- EQ2

Those are your MMORPG exploits.

Bwuahahha. Cock. Its statements like this that keep you on the dole queue.

 

[Sar]

Lvl 14 in EQ2?

Fuck me, it's only out a few days.

Christ almighty.



When I write messages on any forum, I write it properly. It's even very rare that you'll see one of my posts with a spelling error, never mind errors of grammar etc. It's a common courtesy for the people who are trying to decipher your, otherwise drivel that you should write properly, because if you don't, it comes across as nothing but illiterate drivel. This consequently means you come across as an illiterate retard with nothing worthy to say, and people will therefore rightly ignore you.

This of course can lead to you getting frustrated because no-one's listening to you and you go off on one.

LISTEN TO YODA KIDS!

PS: Bods - Lol

 

[Sar]

BTW: Started back in my old job today - hurrah!

Far far happier now

 

[Aada]

Those are your MMORPG exploits.

Cool there exploits because im higher lvl then you? if you think thats high you have'nt seen anything yet lvl 40+s on WOW and on EQ ppl are already lvl 20+.

Heres a tip kids plan what your going to do in the game research quests/locs of mobs it makes your grind go alot faster.

I also group with about 4 other people who play the same games as me we all pick a group friendly class and we lvl up in no time.


AFAIK there are no exploits in WoW to lvl heck you wouldnt need one anyway its that easy.

MUWAHAHAH HES HIGHER LVL THEN ME SO HE MUST HAX/EXPLOIT whinning twats.

[Aada]

[nath]

I don't play MMORPG's

ex·ploit Audio pronunciation of "exploits" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ksploit, k-sploit)
n.

An act or deed

Bodhi did not mean you were cheating when he said exploit.

 

[Aada]

No but you did.. *shrug*

 

[Furr]

Wow I bet you feel a bit silly going off on one like that when completely misinterpreting what people are saying. Heh

 

[nath]

No but you did.. *shrug*

No, I was pointing out where your MMORPG exploits that Bodhi was referring to were. I meant exploits in the same way he did.

the above post is poor english. i don't really care, but then I'm not the who was talking about: 'writing messages on forums' and writing 'it properly'

for the record the only GRIPE i have with spelling and grammar on forums is the use of 'loose' when it should be 'lose' and 'your' when it should be 'you're' because they're different words entirely. I have your names!

 

[maxi]

also, can i, point out, the hilarity, of, people, adding, commas, to , their posts, in order to, make themselves, seem better at, composing argument, as well as, the higher-being of the discussion.

is it for dramatic pause?

spliting the infinitive isn't it?

 

[Ch3tan]

Aada, you crack me up.

 

[Aada]

Thanks.

The only gripe I have is with the lack of goddamn capitals at the start of sentences. FFS!

Not that im sticking up for Aada or against him, but my spelling and grammer is just a poor as him tbh. Tho if you have some common sence you would use a spelling and grammer checker if it was that bad Iv been doing 3'rd line technical support and Network engineer for years and you wanna see the amount of complaints I get from customers about spelling, good job my boss thinks im good at my job else he would of Fired my ass by now rofl.

oh and to stick on topic 15min for teh shortest job when I send to work at a fish factory when I was 17 I got in the place took 1 sniff and said "fook this" !!

Turning vegan breaks your shift key apparently. Must be those smelly veggie farts :/

I think you'll find,,,,, it's SPLITTING the infinitive.

PS: It's closed english. Which is what I was taught at school.

15 year olds like yourself wouldn't be privy to that however.

PPS: Never given a shit about your opinion Maxi, because you're little more than a troll.

Meh.

hey dude, no need to get upppppaddy, remember i wasn't the one being holier than though huh?!!!??!?
p.s the above post is poor english too.

 

[Sar]

This message is hidden because maxi is on your ignore list.

Whoopsie.

 

[leggy]

That surely defeats the purpose of ignore. Especially since you probably read the post anyway.

 

[~Yuckfou~]

 

[Tom]

This thread is great! I love it! What happens next?

 

[maxi]

i tells ya, ignore is daft. there's always that temptation to read the ignorees post and invariably you do anyway. It'd be much better if , whne you clicked ignore the subject just died.

SARS living in the dark ages man, I'm an enlightened lighthearted lightweight hippyster these days. A valuable member of the team. Choosing to ignore legitimate opinion because it may question your ideals or views is the act of a stupid person.


I wonder how many Forum members just post in order to gain kudos from other forum members, to prove they're an upstanding citizen etc. 'your behaviour is abhorrent, i always behave in a so and so manner, it's only polite innit'

 

[Tom]

I don't think anybody expects perfect spelling and grammar, but its courteous to at least try and type something that people can understand without squinting their eyes and reading each word aloud.
