I suppose I need a little bit of clarification on what happened in the past coupld of days:

So the deal with the stupid threads on the lounge was more or less a joke. At least, I was trying to keep it up with a "humourous" tone. Then someone (Mr. Asshat) got mad at it and I found it thoroughly amuzing, so I decided to feed his fuel a bit more. Though I think it kind of burnt him out. I don't regret it, I enjoyed every single bit of that.

In the replies, someone complained about my language. Ok, so I guess some of the stuff (re: ceiling fan) was somewhat graphic, and there was a bit of swearing around. The argument was that I shouldn't swear because there are kids viewing this site. You see, if I don't say it, someone else will. Hiding it from kids is not going to help with anything at all. I don't like it when people trick themselves by saying "f*ck" with the asterick in the middle and thinking that kids aren't going to learn because obviously they didn't really say the swear word and it's okay because kids are so dumb that they don't understand the * is a replacement for U and it's not like they've ever heard the word 'fuck' anywhere before anyway, right?

Err, I have no idea what I just said..
Some others were asking if this is going to be a daily routine. No, it won't be. I'm not going to be a maddox "clone" here, and the story I posted was purely coincident and a followup with some really stupid guy... that was it. Moreover, if I do this everyday, it'll be boring and neither me nor any of your guys will enjoy it anymore.

Oh, right, it's a developer journal, so I guess I should actually talk about development in here. So recently, we were designing an MMORPG. Well, not really, but it sounds like a fun idea to say I'm developing an MMORPG because everyone else is (pretendeing to be) doing it.

We designed very little story for it, because that's how MMORPG designs are, right? Someone just gets an idea one lazy afternoon, and then BAM there's an MMORPG.
So we have this mage class, with lots of varying wands and staff, but we were too lazy, so we only gave name to 2 of them:

  • The highest level staff in the game will be "The Staff of Intense Serious Ass Fucking." (side note: Kids, please don't read the previous sentence)

  • The lowest level wand will be "The Wand of Slight Rectal Discomfort."
