(Hi Manwe, I'm just writing for clarity that I'm not the one you're having a conversation with. Cheers, TomCat

There are like 26 known sceners with this nickname on Demozoo, so...

You’re mixing things up. Look at the thread: I make a point, and the same circle immediately responds with mockery instead of arguments. That repeats every single time.

I don’t need to convince you — but don’t pretend I’m the one derailing when I’ve stayed on topic and you turned it into a sideshow. If you disagree, argue the substance. If you can’t, then stop trying to police who’s allowed to speak. Moral outrage is not a substitute for an argument.

The topic was DEMOSCENE IN INDIA, and _you_ were the one derailing it to Eastern Europe, the "golden age" of the scene, and whatnot. I really feel sorry for the original thread poster.

Was it really _I_, dear dipswitch? Did I ask this question?

I’m curious, in your opinion, how was the demoscene in the ex-USSR different from the European one? (besides Amiga)


Or did I ask this question?

By the way, how do you explain the lack of a demoscene in the USA, where access to computers (and Amiga in particular) was definitely no worse than in Western Europe?


People are having a discussion here, and you aren't the forum police. We drifted into a discussion about a different topic, and so what?

You don't have a problem with offtopic discussions. You have a problem with me, personally. Man up and say it.

look tomcat, it's a recurring pattern:
* you derail a thread
* people call you out for it
* you make it all about yourself and play the victim, while spitting ugly insults all around
(and yes, I have a personal problem with you)

No, v3nom, you’re mistaken. Whenever I comment, one of you immediately starts hyperventilating about “derailment.” This thread wasn’t derailed — we were talking about demoscene history, which is exactly the topic. Discussions drift, that’s normal. What actually derails threads are your perpetual moral lectures.

Read back the topic. My first comment was a direct reply to the original post. On-topic. Then Noctis barged in claiming I was “only here to rile up people.” That’s not a counterargument, that’s an ad hominem.

Now your entire group piles on, one by one, expressing outrage over my tone or even the fact that I dare to talk at all — yet not a single argument on the substance. Then you try to gaslight everyone into believing I’m the one who “always” derails threads. Meanwhile dipswitch acts as if someone mentioning the Russian demoscene in a thread about India is a crime against humanity.

So let’s be clear: the derailment is coming from your circle, not me. And the funniest part is, we don’t even know each other. I don’t remember ever meeting or talking to you. If you never bothered to know me, then where does all this hate even come from?

So can we go back on topic. India is ass huge, would be interesting whats going on, if they know the scene.

@tomcat
Just open a similar threat with the Russian demoscene, this might be also interesting.
A *threat*? :P

I'm not supporting tomcatmawi in any way, but it's kinda true v3nom has this "moral police" vibe...just saying.
