Okay. As long as everybody knows I'm right, I don't care what else happens.

An additude like that, is why people are more likely to bitch about you the second you walk into the room. The complete opposite of an open mind. Blows to one another as attempts to degrade them, that are a completely different subject, are merely signs of weakness in debate, because you merely can't think of any way to prove them wrong. That's the biggest issue with any kind of arguement, people jump to personal attacks one one another before the arguement even nessarly starts.

Don't get me wrong. I'm glad you agree with me. But, I want you to always look your best, so I'm making some suggestions for your post so that you can learn to be an even better poster in the future. Cheers!

Sentence 1:
You don't need a comma in between "that" and "is." That's just a little thing, though. No worries, mate!

Sentence 2:
This is a fragment. You should have said, "It's the complete opoosite of an open mind." People do that for effect all the time, but that doesn't make it right! Additionally, since you wouldn't say that one thing is the partial opposite of another, you don't need to say that anything is the complete opposite of anything else. So just say, "It's the opposite of an open mind." Of course, this is technically incorrect, as I was not being closed-minded so much as just belligerent. Maybe "It's the opposite of demure" would work better there. Being demure is not really a goal of mine anyway.

Sentence 3:
This is just a mess. It's almost unreadable. That, and you used "merely" twice in one sentence. Try this: "Personal attacks are a weak debate tactic, employed by those who cannot think of any logical counter to their opponent's point of view." Mix it up and add your own funky flavor!

Sentence 4:
This just kind of rephrases the third sentence. It isn't really necessary. That, and "argument" and "necessarily" were misspelled. But, if you really want to put something here, give this a look: "That's the biggest problem with any kind of argument: people start attacking one another on a personal level before any kind of thoughtful discourse can take place." I think that says it quite nicely, don't you? Although, I would contend that the biggest problem with any kind of argument is that people cling to inflexible beliefs and take their defense as a competition, rather than considering the ideas of others and allowing their own opinions to change. Maybe you should begin by acknowledging that your statement is simply your own point of view, as I just did.

All in all, it was a pretty great post! Of course, we all make mistakes from time to time, so don't let it get you down. When we use the power of togetherness, we all grow stronger and more wise!

I've just acquired an utter dislike of Defenestrator.

@Muz: In answer to the original question, the thing that stops me doing my games is a feeling of utter dispair and unworthyness. That and my guitar.

I've created a few things in MMF2 and haven't run into any bugs that have halted development - so it works fine for me and is far more stable than MMF1 in my opinion. Anyway, stop the nagging with each other - if you want to talk/argue, do it over MSN or mail or something

@defenstrator
When someone talks to you, to get a point accross... the last thing you do is try to 'teach' them how to do it better. I didn't expect/want a reply, just for you to understand where I'm comming from. I could say I appreciate the 'help' but I can't, considering the poor timming you decided to give it to me.

I hate to say it, but being called a cock has really won me over. I guess personal insults really are the best way to settle differences after all. In keeping with that spirit, Shab, quit being such a lazy, useless piece of shit all the time. Noodle, I'm glad you dislike me. Given your love of cocks, it probably means I'm not a cock after all. Brandon, learn to type, you illiterate cunt, and deadeye, it's not MMF; it's you, you stupid fucking retard.

There. I honestly hope that was more to everyone's liking.
