  1. Hey... I'm Fluttershy. I saw this site and made an account. I hope you don't mind...

    1. @flashmint Why bother trying to convince someone at all?

    2. @flashmint Tell him to stop bothering you and if he doesn't stop then stop talking to him altogether. Friends stop bothering each other if it's genuinely upsetting the other person.

    3. @flashmint Why not just... uh... say you're not? Considering you're (probably) not and all...

    4. @flashmint http://pny.lv/2beh if he threatens to hurt you, report him. Easy as that. Or, if you're like @nerthos, take it into your own hands.

    5. @flashmint Sue for harassment.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:25:14 UTC from web
    6. @flashmint The only reason I even mentioned a threat is because you said you'd get your ass handed to you. If he's just irritating you then you can ignore him where it's possible and let whoever is in charge know anywhere else like in school or whatever

    7. @flashmint Then stop being a doormat and cut off communication with him.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:26:37 UTC from web
    8. @flashmint Why are you playing games together with a person who's irritating you? I'd have stopped the moment he refused to stop being a bananas about it

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:27:21 UTC from web
    9. @flashmint I obviously don't know the entire backstory, but unless he's absolutely vital for your wellbeing somehow, then it should be pretty simple to remove him from your life.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:29:50 UTC from web
    10. @flashmint Because people tend to get bored and will find anything they can to irritate someone else if it gives them something to do. Also people aren't great in general.

      1. @flamingpandaomg My ears are burning.

        Sunday, 18-May-14 22:34:18 UTC from web
        1. @awlderpy Water usually fixes that.

          Sunday, 18-May-14 22:34:52 UTC from web
    11. @flashmint Tombs?

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:31:08 UTC from web
    12. @flashmint You might need to explain that a bit more for me.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:31:54 UTC from web
      1. @flamingpandaomg Tomb as in prison. They're probably cellmates and the other guy has all the cigs.

        Sunday, 18-May-14 22:33:09 UTC from web
        1. @nerthos I thought of a burial place, or he didn't finish the word "Tombstone" like the pizza sauce.

          Sunday, 18-May-14 22:33:52 UTC from web
    13. @flashmint I never understood why people like Realm of the Mad God or whatever it's called.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:36:06 UTC from web
    14. @flashmint doesn't look enjoyable to me.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:36:34 UTC from web
    15. @flashmint a little. Maybe an hour's worth.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:38:50 UTC from web
    16. @flashmint never been a big fan of bullet hell games but it's something between the generic pixel art style and the spinning camera that drives me nuts.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:42:55 UTC from web
    17. @flashmint it's turned into generic after it became the fad for game designs to take. Kinda like how zombie games suddenly became generic because every other game was a zombie game. It's gotten old and unmotivated.

      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:47:08 UTC from web
      1. @flamingpandaomg I think in some cases you're misinterpreting "We'll use old style graphics because it's so cool!" and "We're a tiny team of people we have to use old style graphics"

        Sunday, 18-May-14 22:47:57 UTC from web
        1. @scoot in some cases it's forced because of team size, but you can't honestly tell me that all of the consecutive "retro" games that all use 8bit art is all because of team size? It's become a fad just as zombie games had for a while. I'm just sick of it.

          Sunday, 18-May-14 22:49:34 UTC from web
          1. @flamingpandaomg well OK believe what you will, most of them did it to save time or because it's honestly the best their team can do

            Sunday, 18-May-14 22:50:06 UTC from web
            1. @scoot saving time shouldn't really be a legitimate reason. Small team size is.

              Sunday, 18-May-14 22:50:28 UTC from web
              1. @flamingpandaomg uh, I think saving time is a very legitimate reason, if everything is finished except the art assets, it would make sense to make them simple and get the game out to the public so you can make your next game. Indie devs rarely care about graphics

                Sunday, 18-May-14 22:51:44 UTC from web
                1. @scoot I'm not saying that they have to be full-fledged 3D 1080p Square-Enix quality art, but defaulting to 8bit when you could have done something to differentiate yourself from the other 30 games that have incredibly similar art styles is a little lazy. I obviously don't know what it all entails since I'm not in that field, but that's just what I feel as a consumer.

                  Sunday, 18-May-14 22:53:22 UTC from web
                  1. @flamingpandaomg I don't know what else they CAN do, it's the simplest art style that still conveys a lot of information.

                    Sunday, 18-May-14 22:54:29 UTC from web
                  2. @flamingpandaomg Here's what I came up with:

                    Vast A. melanoleuca of conflagrant quality
                    To whom I write with facetious frivolity
                    Will senpai notice this expository thought
                    Or twas this verbose verbatim for naught?

                    Sunday, 18-May-14 22:58:46 UTC from web
                    1. @northernnarwhal err

                      Sunday, 18-May-14 22:59:08 UTC from web
                      1. @flamingpandaomg Flaming panda > don't take this seriously > will senpai notice thing > does this even mean anything

                        Sunday, 18-May-14 23:00:44 UTC from web
                        1. @northernnarwhal yes
