Re: Social Gatherings
It is perfectly normal to not like going to social gatherings. A lot of people, myself included prefer to spend time with people on a one on one basis. I don't really enjoy parties because I often get bored or anxious and come across as really awkward when I am in fact very socialable. Ironically en...

Re: Art Styles
Heh, now I feel like a tool for favoring an ultra-slick cookie-cutter shoujo manga style bright enough to make Lisa Frank's eyes bleed. If your coloring is bright enough to make Lisa Frank's eyes bleed, you are doing it wrong! A rainbow that ate another rainbow and threw it up on another rainbow st...

Re: Western Animation
Not exactly and old biddy, but I do love the classics of "western" animation; the old Tom and Jerry, Bugs Bunny, and of course; old-school Disney, when animation was mostly by hand; Beauty and the Beast, Lion King, Sleeping Beauty, etc. They opened the floodgates for modern animation. Even Osamu Te...

Re: Parents in VNs
So many of the VNs dont show parents during the game because they are irrelavent in the plot most of the time. And it's perfectly fine not to show them. I mean, parents won't follow the children to their high school... typically, and when their daughters go on dates with guys... Normally. I don't k...

Western Animation
We talk a lot about Eastern animation a lot here so how about this as a change of pace: do any of you watch western animation? Now don't think this excludes you Europe. You are technically a part of the western world. If you are an old geezer or old biddy then tell us what you used to watch that fit...

Re: Regarding "The Controversy"
@Lemma You are absolutely right with leaving this alone. People like this feed off of other peoples reactions to their antics. If we respond to their claims then that just solidifies us as an enemy in their mind. This is not a situation where fighting back would have a positive result. Kinou has ver...

Re: Regarding "The Controversy"
This might be a bit off topic, but I have a question. Say you did feel offended by somene's post. Would it be considered harrassment or be considered responsible to PM that person and tell them that it upset you rather than make a public statement about it? I just ask because I am a very private pe...

Re: Opinions on Fantasy Terminology
Where to start... First off, I absolutely love detailed immersive story telling! However, in-indepth world building comes at a cost. With a game that is similar to life on Earth information can be delivered much more quickly and easily through "show don't tell". However complex worlds have to be rev...

Re: Regarding "The Controversy"
I agree that our attitudes have to change in order for major change like this to be successful. However I don't feel like adding more moderators would be silencing people who are passionate about their beliefs. You just have to get the right people for the job. Unfortunately the forums where I serve...

Re: help with game name :)
Hmm naming things happens to be one of my specialities. So basically these girls are black knights(technical term meaning they steal for good, kind of like Robin Hood). Now I do have a couple of constructive criticism comments about the main plot. What exactly did the mother do to get killed? I mean...

Re: 6.12.1: Error Handling
I absolutely love this new addition. It would make debugging do much easier! I hate having to weed through my game to test a certain piece of code. The prospect of having error codes mailed to you is possible. I have seen it done in one of the programming classes I help teach. I don't know how to im...

Re: Ren'Py 6.12.1+ Planning Thread
Thanks for the info PyTom. I signed up the newsletter, but I noticed that I didn't get a recent copy of it. Part of me didn't expect to, it was just a silly little hope I had 
Can anyone beam me over a copy of it?

Re: What do you guys feel about bad words on games?
Putting profanity in your games is a double edged sword. On one hand it adds a kind of gritty realism that shows a variety of emotion(provided you don't use it excessively, too much becomes tedious and it comes across as juvenile) and on the other hand you risk alienating some of your audience. Some...
