(1) What I said expressed to the guy who flamed me that I'm not going anywhere and that he should quit bugging me. Nothing childish in that. His remark was childish, mine was not. Get a clue.
(2) I do not know, nor care, how old you are or pretend to be. It is insignificant to me. You probably consider that statement of fact to be childish too. Guess what, who cares.
(3) What makes you think that by me pointing out YOUR childish and hypocritical behaviour, that I'm somehow "pissed off". It's quite the contrary, I enjoy making loud mouth posers look bad.
(4) And I see you still dont have the balls (or maturity) to admit that you were wrong for accusing me of "posting over and over complaining about gman". Here's an idea, you go away too. Quit acting like everyone respects you when you are a pathetic joke.
BL, it's nice to see you attempting to act mature for once. But we all know it's cause you're trying to suck up to get to be a mod. But three days of maturity and tollerance does not erase 3 months of ignorance and immaturity.
Now why don't you show some real maturity and appologize for lying and saying I "posted over and over complaining about gman".
Peronally, I'm not too concerned about your opinion BL. But since you chose to address me in an open forum, I'll respond.
(1) I never complained once about gman, let alone "posted over and over complaining about him". As anyone who can read will clearly understand, I said nothing harsh or untrue to/about the mapper.
The map DOES take place in a closet a closet. The closet IS full of prefabs. Have YOU looked at it? Rating a small closet with some prefabs in it a nearly perfect 4/5 stars IS rediculous no matter how well done the closet is. Look at the map, then read what I said, then go away.
I told the mapper it was a good start and went on to tell him its far from a complete map and should be put in the unfinished section. I suggested silent gunz was acting rediculously, not the mapper.
You, like silent gunz and whoever else doesn't understand the simple English I'm using, should go back to elementary school and pay closer attention this time. You seem to think that by telling someone they've made a good start, but they should move their map because it's far from completed and its in the wrong wault, I'm insulting them and trying to tear them down. Not true.
If i wanted to insult the mapper I would have said something like: "This MAP is rediculous. Take this garbage out of here and you with it." Do you see the difference? Probably not.
And silent gunz, if I really was a noob hater like you said, why did I compliment your monoliths map I looked at you fool?
I know it helps some people to feel important by jumping on the bandwagon and attacking people who others are not likely to defend. Why dont you 2 find more productive ways to feel important? Especially since I've proven you both to be rediculous with your accusations.
Gmans_agent: Man I didn't even rate this map. So many people so quick to accuse. I defy anyone to point out something I said in these comments that's false or unfair. If you actually read what I say, instead of just reading what someone else says about me, you will look like much less of an ass with your posts.
Silent Gunz: I never claimed I said: "encouraging a noob is ok". What I asked was: "Didn't I SUGGEST that encouraging noobs is ok?" And in my opinion, the quote you used DOES suggest that I have no problem with encouraging noobs.
So I say it again. Please try and read more carefully, and quit putting words in my mouth.
Why do some people here not understand English? Where did I say he should quit mapping? Didn't I say it was a good start? Didn't I suggest in my first post that encouraging noobs is ok? What I took issue with was rating this tiny pointless map 4 out of five stars.
Haven't people been complaining about the vault getting spammed full of junk? Well when the mapper or another noob sees that this map gets 4 stars, he probably thinks: "Nice! That map almost got a perfect 5 stars! I can post something like that and I'll get great ratings too/again!" Then even more noobs are putting their one room first maps here.
Instead of telling me to calm down and take it easy on the guy (when I am calm, have said nothing nasty to the mapper, and am trying to help fix a problem here), you should be telling the mapper: "hey nice job on your first map, but you should really move it to the unfinished section where it belongs".
Please read more carefully before you suggest I'm upset and I told someone to quit mapping.
So what are you saying, I was too hard on him? Or that because he used a monster_maker, the closet suddenly became an awesome map deserving 4 out of 5 stars? I don't understand what you're saying.
What did I say that was harsh or untrue? Is this really a 4 star completed map? No. Is it the size of a closet? Yes. Did he fill the closet with prefabs? Yes. Did I compliment him and say it was a good start? Yes. Is the map far from what any reasonable gamer would call complete? Yes.
And I didn't say anything mean to him, I said rating a closet full of prefabs 4 stars is rediculous... cut ME some slack.
Come on man. Encouraging a noob is one thing, but rating this map 4 stars is rediculous. The whole map is a room the size of a closet with some prefabs in it. Please take this out of the completed section. Yes it is a good start, but it is FAAAARRRRRRRR from a completed map.

in vault item: Hostile TakeoverComment #2743
Someone suggested I get more involved with TWHL. Ok, I will. Well where should I begin? How about the beginning. The fade ins take way to long, just let me play, especially since the map is so short. Who wants to spend a fifth of the time it takes to complete this tiny map in complete darkness. The computers and the entire room for that matter look like crap. Just a big block with identical computers cycling through the identical animating textures at the same exact time. Theres no detail anywhere in the map that I could see. Just basic blocks with poorly alligned textures on them (like on that sign by the sparking door and many other places.) The slanting texture on the walls of the ramp looks rediculous. Learn to apply textures.
Those cylinders with the gray glass that do nothing look awful. I dont even know where to start with them. So I'll just say the look terrible. That whole room looks way too repetitive and boring. The whole map was boring for that matter. What is there to do in it? You walk down 2 hallways and a through a room, see some stupid looking puff of smoke, and shoot a few sollys and one monster. Big deal. Since the whole map looks like it took you 10 minutes to make, I suggest starting over, AFTER you read the beginning tuts here and learning how to make something other than boxes and a cylender.
Very poor attempt at a hl map. I'd give zero stars, but the lowest I'm allowed to give is 1.

P.S. Don't let some peoples negative attitudes get to you, just ignore them.
