hi v4 ~

[AnonymousHero]

The devs shouldn't have to. The other forum members are perfectly capable of handling the pointless/trolling posts (by ignoring them), but there are always those folks who just seem to lack the willpower to resist replying to them, encouraging the behavior.

... which sounds somewhat self-contradictory given that you posted a reply to my post from several months ago. (But whatever, let's not bicker and argue about who killed who...)

It's just a shame that ignoring a poster (dos350) doesn't auto-ignore replies to their posts, but I guess it's too hard to implement a kill-file like functionality in these days of Web 2.0 forums and so on.

Sorry, I didn't realize the quoted post was from so long ago, since the subject matter is still very much current in the thread (hence my tossing in my own take on the ongoing situation).

Just play 3.3.2 with the option "Don't show feelings" and you're set...

If you keep on calling changes to the game 'BS' over and over again it's actually pretty insulting to the people who put in the work. Adding 'no rage' to the end of all your posts doesn't change that. Please STFU, learn to code and release your own damn version instead of posting the same BS all the time.

Thanks. Bye.

i learnt to code years ago son, sorry i dont mean any disrespect but i think that u angband devs are all being silly.

wats the point of putting the work in if the result of ur work is worse than wats available 2 u already without any work except 2 download it,

the changes are bs and u should realize it
and if u dont maybe u need2 actually play and enjoy angband instead of trying 2 improve upon it which most of u r failing @

if u want 2 succeed, heres a tip:


dont change play, only change interface etc

make it easier 4 the user 2 use the game how they want if anything, not change how it plays in a hopeless effort 2 have it ur way

people will play how THEY want regardless of wat rules u try 2 impose

and making it an option doesnt make it any better!~~

get ur head str8 , no rage or abuse ~ ty


eeeking irl 4 all who disagree, sizing irl 4 the info!

EDIT:

and for all those who do think u r good at changing angband

dont call it a patch

dont call it v4

make a variant, there are many great examples: hengband, zangband, nppangband, bla bla bla

they are all imo worse than vanilla BUT atleast they dont insult it by ruining it while keeping the name

siz 4 that!

[debo]

lol i love this guy ^

[Malak Darkhunter]

Ummmm.........What? I understood half that maybe, Kind of like a yeek eating a mushroom of hullicination and Terror, and that's the result.

[Nick]

Well, dos, the devs actually think they are making the game better, even if you don't. This is what we grownups call a "difference of opinion".

No rage, if you please.

[dos350]

maybe the devs like their own work

otherwise siz 4 this but do the players think its better???

me here saying it will be worse after 3.4 from wat ive heard

and no abuse at all but im not even going 2 talk about wat ive heard of v4!

ty in advance!

Do you think that the devs make their changes while ignoring the community? There's plenty of discussion about proposed changes, both in Vanilla and in v4, and plenty of testing done before anything gets released. Everyone except for you is perfectly willing to give constructive feedback on why a feature doesn't work, and whether there's some way to fix it so it's better, or if it just doesn't seem like a good idea in the first place. You're just heaping abuse. Can you see why that's not helpful?

At the same time, it's not possible to make everyone happy with every change. For all the players who think that Vanilla is improved by a given feature, there will be at least one player who thinks it's a bad idea. But nobody is forcing anyone to play a particular version of the game. The previous versions are perfectly good games in their own right, let alone all the variants available -- and if you want some combination of features that doesn't exist in any released version or variant, you can always write your own.

What does not, and will never happen, is a dev team that restrains themselves to only working on the user interface of the game. When you ask for volunteers to maintain a project, you have to accept that those volunteers will work on what they want to work on. Sometimes that's UI work. More often it's trying to tweak the game to fix perceived flaws.
