STFU THEN YOU USELESS WHINING SACK OF SHIT. kthx.

herding cats is my dreamjob

_: Settle down for christ's sake.
Do you have the ability to write one single post without making yourself look like a ape?

it was called for.

another vision does not seem to exist in your world.

yes, that is a nice quote, especially when you see it along with plek's usual routine of forcing his opinion upon you with foul language and the mandatory 'shut the fuck up'

I can see a lot of future replies to plek saying 'another vision does not seem to exist in your shut the fuck up '.

Yet another thread started by a name- and faceless troll. No sane scener should be bothered to post...

Errmmm, wait a minute... ;)

Branca:
It is no use to tell you STFU, cause everybody has a right to freedom of speech. You Branca should know one thing: demoscene has never been a commercial shit (afaIr). If there were ppl, as you said copying 'other's style' you gotta know that it was not just a simple copying. It was/is a matter of "CanI do that? No! I will do sth BETTER". Simple copying, or source, idea-ripping = LAME. And this is a curse. It is not like on TV, commercial music industry, etc.. when copying sb's idea = 'good work' = money. There everything is the same. If there is a market and good advertising, you will be flooded with a shit. Do not mistake the scene with it, cause here everything has its own path.

Let's face it, even a topic which said 'only post here if you are agreeing to kiss a lepers ass' would still end up with 50+ posts.

yup, that's good ol' pouet all-right :)

Plek, your inverse form of snobism doesn't make it any less snobism.

But it's trendy to be anti-intellectual these days, just look at who
gets elected in your favorite super-power. (Or even closer to home)

antillectual my ass... :)

art is one of the most subjective thingies there is.. you like it or not, it's amazing how many threads still start about this matter.

It's amazing too how many of us like starting threads about this matter ;)

Speaking of which, how long will it be before we have some scene artists old and wise enough to be really good? I think visualice is on the right path, maybe in 10 years. Any others?

connecting audiovisual taste to intellect, at least on this level, tells us about your endless arrogance, knos.

Hahahaha! This thread is funny!!! Everybody started pissing each other out of nothing! =)

FOR GODS SAKE, I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING!!!

Wtf? People post some innocent remarks about other's lack of intelligence, or arrogance, or whatever, and you just come in here and start laughing at people? Stfu! You don't need to show us your extreme arrogance by assuming that others insult each other and you don't, while at the same time laughing at us. Pure hypocrasy. ;)

Naahhh, then STFU mothahacka! :)

Gut point though :>

Because "obviously superior artsy types" is not a slur for
"intellectuals"? In the common sense of the word "intellectuals" when
talking about such matters. You know, the meaning that is used in
newspapers, media and so on?

I'm not referring to

in·tel·lec·tu·al ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ntl-kch-l)
3.
1. Having or showing intellect, especially to a high degree.
See Synonyms at intelligent.

I don't know whether you choosed to understand it in this less common
meaning honestly or just to make your spiteful retort.

Your past posts have shown that you dislike arrogant/superior stances.

Furthermore you have displayed a capacity to reframe any of these
discussions in terms of superiority / arrogance, even in absence of
evidence of intent to appear superior or such. (By the way, and let's be
clear here, branca's post is garbage and a nice example of how to troll
succesfully)

I don't fucking think what you call "artsy", and what i would call
intellectual stuff is superior in any way to other more visceral stuff,
it's all just in your mind. It just shows an image of somebody who
is applying recipes to reasoning.

(What is less clear is why your dislike of the messenger leads you to
thus abhor the object. If that dislike is disconnected, while always
mention the "arrogance" or "superiority" claims)

I'll reiterate and say again that I find this stance that is often
taken, of claiming that those "self-proclaimed elites", are perverted
individuals for the only reason that they appear arrogant is populism of
the cookbook sort.

Of course it's also always said in a sarcastic manner, so any kind of
counter attack can be deflected by claiming no such thing really was
said.

that'll get optimus laughing again.

Aghh,. I laughed at a very early stage because I catched up to see your post first, before reading that text ;P

i must admit, I laughed all the way through that one too. Damned funny post :P

Stop the useless yadayada and use that time for demos.

can't code demos at work ..
