And what I posted, which may look like flame bait to yall, only originally asked for a bit of help. But then I told you guys I wanted to know how to start making the actual game, rather than just how to start programming. And yall are like 'NO! YOU HAVE TO DO THE HELLO WORLD 250000 TIMES BEFORE YOU LEARN TO PROGRAM!'(not hyperbole, i did the math) And then I tried to tell you this multiple times. But yall started getting all like 'YOUR A BAD STUDENT!' and 'YOU REFUSE TO LEARN! YOU WANT TO CLIMB EVEREST BEFORE YOU CAN WALK!' etc. But I'm still all like 'I want to know how to start the game making, not how to begin programming all this basic crap' and thats when I started getting pissed. So now I'm sitting here, being my normal, arguement starting self, unintetionally this time. In the religion thread I enjoyed arguement for the sake of arguement. but then all this hatred from you guys flowed over there too. Its like whenever I post, you guys are ravens, and then here comes a tiger. Tiger kills innocent post, tiger eats part, ravens fly in and eat the rest. No matter where it is. Even if its only mildly related. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
