Yeh I agree with Redeemer that the CEO stuff does make you seem a little immature. If you are quite a young person then that's probably understandable but you have to realise that not everyone can become the next Bill Gates.

You have ambitions (maybe slightly unrealistic) which is a good thing because nobody can really succeed without passion.

My advice to you is to 'know your place'. Cut out all the CEO, copyright, company stuff and focus on increasing your skillset through programming/art and start building small but interesting applications.

When you have something that is worth showing then feel free to present it, but please don't exaggerate what it can do.

As for your 'team', just think as it as a bunch of friends with similar interests/hobbies working on a project together for fun. Don't think of it as a commerical team, with wages, promotions, etc. It is just a bit silly.

Anyway that's my rant over. In the end just do what you enjoy most. You may realise in a few years that you were probably too ambitious, we all have.

@Joquan: grin... I think there's still some posts around from when i had that sort of attitude.

It's a nice thing to have, but probably won't be beneficial in the long run. I think my 'companies' name was 'SebSoft, not to be underestimated'.. Makes me laugh when i think about itgrin. I must admit that your name is a lot more inventive than mine was (First half of my name stuck with the first half of 'software'.). Even now i have a little name (in my sig) for an engine i'm developing in c++ for directx (which so far, has failed miserably..). I reckon that if you replaced the end of your posts from

you would be taken a lot more seriously. Also, your apparent obsession with RuneScape is quite a big offputter (for me anyway), because it says 'This is a game I really like, and i want to make something exactly like it'. I don't think so. Runescape was text-based (yes, text based), until about 10 people joined the team. Aim low, then work your way up.

off-topic:- WoW is much bigger than RuneScape (by paying users) atm... (Not that I play WoW... I rather EVE, I find it more interesting)

Come to think of it, i would be interested in developing a space-type game also...

i am developing a large game at the minute (i posted this so no-one thinks i am one of them big-mouthed not-getting-anywhere guys). i came up with the name "Mikesgames Productions" because i dont think "made by Michael,Connor and Rory" sounds like a good opening for a game.

as for the (c) and stuff he showed, there is absolutely no sign of any copyright used anywhere on his site other than in his sig!

this might be of some interest to jake (joquan):

anyway...

sorry that i dont have a space game going on, otherwise i would have asked for your help frown

At least he is not using that "Ltd" anymore,
wich can really mean legal trouble.

Yeh, I think we've gone on long enough. The original question has been resolved, so maybe it's time for Mr. Lock! (tm)
