Oi! Just because you're moving on to different languages doesn't mean you have to leave! I don't program in Dark Basic Pro (or any Dark Basic) anymore, in favor of C++, and I'm still here.

Heck, you might even still be useful to people, helping them every once in a while with your years of experience.

Cheers,
Preston

You can help the Programming discussion people or you can make something even better than Newton. No need to leave. If you must go just remeber where you started. When your rich with Mentor inc. or something just remember you started with darkbasic the simple low program. With slow 2d engine and such. But Its where you started. Finally you have fun and good luck!!!!

No, because I accidently put a sarcasticness identifier in your... err... lets just say somewhere where sun doesn't shine (too often )

And it said you weren't being sarcastic, so I win. Go jump in a bowl of Lucky Charms, maybe you'll finally catch that darn man in the green suit.

Heh.. let's hope that you can actually do it this time.
This'll be escape attempt No.3 iirc

Something about this place keeps dragging users back. Kinda like the song of Eponia.
Well if you don't come back, well done for finally making it over the wall into freeman land!
