Aztec closed the topic before I hit the Submit button, so sorry for the new topic.

Joaquan... there is an universal fact about teenagers. Every single one thinks he knows everything (so to speak, don't take it literally).

I know you feel like you are right, and that we are the big bad wolves that just gobbled up your little sister and left you all alone. You're pissed, you wanna be right, and that's alright, everyone does that at your age.

But try to understand here. We already went through that. We know what it is like, and we also know how embarrassing things can be in retrospect. Can you even imagine how happy I am that all my old posts from the A4 forums aren't here anymore? I was 9 (!) when I started with 3DGS, and I have done everything you are doing right now...

At the time I was making a FPS game, Charge Gun, and I boasted around "big open worlds", "dynamic storyline", blah blah blah... "yes we already have the levels, but we cant show them right now because the details are missing" when in reality I had 2 levels, one of them was so crappy I had to make it again when I got A5, because the level compiler couldn't handle it anymore. The entire game was made in templates, but of course publicly I said that the whole thing was made from scratch from my coding department.

I was the big CEO of Xware Computer Games, I had people working under me yeah... The only problem was that I didn't. I myself only now am starting to have everything I need to actually start a company. And a one-man-company at that... And I had my start into working life with 16 years, an age you really don't want to get serious with this. I had a head-start, but for your own sake I'd advise against it.

Then I started Dark Age, and in the early stages I used textures from Gothic and claimed I had licenses to use them. Which I also didn't. But I only realized how important that was when I got older.

I don't know if you really do have people working(!) for you. Mind you, working FOR you, not with you. I don't know if you pay them, or how much. How big your company is and if you have any revenues coming in.

But from experience and an educated guess I'd say you are just like me. And a serious business person that you are trying to emulate, would not use a name from a fictional religious figure from the Babylon 5 series ;-)

Listen to me: Swallow your pride, because I don't think that the forum right now will have a start from scratch like in the past. So all your little posts will be there when you get older and start realizing how embarrassing you have been acting.

I don't wanna change you, but rather give you a good advice: Don't act in a way you will probably regret in a few years. See this like an Intervention from your friends, rather than us being your stupid, annoying parents who don't get you at all and telling you what to do.

Blessed is the man, who having nothing to say, abstains from giving wordy evidence of the fact.

Sorry Joaquan, but your signature always reminds me of "Compuglobalhypermeganet, Junior Vice President Homer Simpson speaking, how may I direct your call? - It's Patty."


I don't have a homepage, for god's sake!

Joquan, you are still doing the same thing:
http://www.opserver.de/ubb7/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=323411#Post323411

after all this words and people stating that they do not like your behaviour? Think about what can you possibly achieve by that, or would Micheal_Schwarz give you job? Just to not rip Michael's thread, if you can't do it for a long time, why offer it? That post (as addition to the other job offering replies of you)translates to, "i am a kid that never did this stuff before but i am sure i can handle it, see how great i am , i can do everything in every area, but i won't do it." While trying to look like you can really do it, but miserably fail. Did you ever made any kind of music before?

Really, please stop posting for a while.

I was sorry for you at first and tried to help, but you are completely a hopeless situation, i thought i saw the worst newcomer before you but i was wrong.

wow, i said to myself ... what kinda of drama will unfold today and this forum does not disappoint.

so while we are on the topic , it was jake and i who messed up the other guys job offer post , and for that i feel bad. jake should not have responded to that post , the guy was offering paid work , only serious replies should enter those. and i should have kept my comments to myself , i just couldnt take the CEO thing anymore.

on a positive note he is very ambitious smile

I have a habit of copying all my larger posts to notepad regularly while writing to have a backup, so I lost nothing, but thanks for your concern!

Michael, you're a good guy. Nice words.

To be honest I don't understand all the drama. Why don't you just ignore that kiddo and notify a moderator when he is posting shit again? I have the feeling writing long posts to him only enforces him in his behavior as he gets the attention he wants.


Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...
