Or if they post an utterly stupid team request
.
I don't think that newbs get mistreated, I think if they have the right attitude then they get treated and responded to fairly. However if they have the wrong attitude like, gimme da codez style, they get pointed in the right direction fairly promptly, and if they choose to leave cos they take it the wrong way, or if they just ignore it, that's their fault. Sure there may be a few idiots on this forum who step on the newbs, but the majority are mostly helpful.
About the binary moon thing. I looked at your tut compared to binary moon's tut and I only thought the way the whole thing was structured to be suspicious. I was cautious about what I said, because the tuts didn't look exactly the same to me, just the sub-headings were the same, and at the same time I didn't want to let you off straight away as I've seen people's work being copied/taken as their own before (a la CM C and that guy who "made" that cool looking racing game).
I can kind of understand Binary Moon jumping to conclusions, as he, like you, has spent a long time working on his tut, but he was a bit harsh to claim that most of it was copied with a few variable names changed, as anyone who looks at it can see it is not. Maybe he should apologise, I dunno, it's up to him... well I apologise aswell if I seemed to be accusing you, but I simply wanted to get the truth out.
In the end I can't stop you from leaving, but you say you will be returning to the help forums? I presume you mean to reply to questions, not ask questions. Well that's fine, and seems very helpful of you
. I hope you get on well with your book, and look forward to learning something from it (I perticulary think you should expand on the AI section, as that is something we could all learn from
).
