duckster wroteI'd like to step into this discussion and state the following:
Regardless whether it's logical or not for the guy to fork that much money into a super computer that is going to be used for a simple flash game, I do not understand the ethics (or lack of) that some of the members here are displaying.
You've been bashing and cursing at the guy for a day now, labeling him with the harshest of adjectives.
Fact is, this guy was seeking the help of khaled & yasamoka, and these two gentlemen (I'm being nice here) are abusing their knowledge of the guy to bash him in his back.
Not to mention the other members who got carried away and joined the bashing bandwagon.
This is utterly disgusting. This whole thread is about belittling someone with no added value to the community ... whatsoever. What a shame.
I understand your idea and you have a point, except you have misunderstood the reason behind this thread. It is important to notice that we are not abusing our knowledge and bashing him for his lack of it. What i want you to realise is that what we are condoning is his lack of reason, and him not wanting to understand. Yasamoka tried to explain it mathematically, him, being a computer engineer should have at least undersdoot the technical things, well he didnt, still going on with this.
Know that if he had said, i am going for that kind of rig just for the sheer joy of it ( as taker al khalidi did, and what anyone of us would have done if we could ) then we would have all helped him. But his ignorence is coupled with " taysane " and to a certain limit stupidity.
That is what we are bashing, not abuse of our knowledge and his lack of it
And in addition, a small thing i want you to note, i am making him read every single comment we write, and all he thinks is " They cant be serious, they are just jealous " . . . thought i just add this bit so you realize who yasamoka and i were dealing with
