Default Stargate Worlds: A cruel joke?

Hello there. I have recently been analyzing this community, and I've noticed several things -- things that have led me to believe that SGW is nothing more than a cruel, heartless joke. Or ... psychological test.


Tkksnow!?


First, before I go to the evidence, consider the state we are in:
  • Mac and Linux fans, constantly asking if their platform will be supported -- with the inevitable, soulcrushing results.
  • A community in turmoil -- Stargate fans led here, holding on with a thin string of hope, and the naysayers, who seek to crush their dreams

Exhibit A: Moderators
Specifically, two moderators: Khabarach and Penguin.
Khabarach has the BSD daemon for his avatar. Penguin's name is "penguin."
Anyone else suspicious?

Khabarach: evil henchman?

Exhibit B: Developers Using Mac
Have several developers not said they use Mac? And yet they develop a game for Windows!

Exhibit C: The naysayers
These people seem to hate SGW and everything associated with it. Their only purpose in life is to make the hopefuls miserable. In fact, they spend so much time attempting this that they seem to have nothing else to do. Are they miserable, 16-year-old high school dropouts, parasitically living off their parents -- or is this their JOB!?!? Could it be that "CME" has paid them to do this?

Exhibit D: The extreme hopefuls
These people are the exact opposite of the naysayers. Could "CME" have paid them to create chaos against the naysayers? Perhaps.


They'll never catch us! -- CME Development


I find these to be plausible scenarios. Does CME even exist!? Did those who stopped posting get smart, and then eliminated!? If I disappear, you will know! Quick, print out this article ... before it's too late!!

So, CME, is this true? Should we call you CME? What about DHARMA, or The Others!?

If you don't find the 'lol' in this, then all hope is lost.

Gizkaguy that is very rude of you to say!

I've been here about the same amount of time as you have and I am still happy to be here.

Khabarach and Penguin and not evil. They are good, nice, and helpful people. The mods are basicly volunteers to check the forums to see if rules are broken and if the forums are running smoothly. They know as much about the game as the other members on the forums. Also, Tkksnow and other devs drop by and check the forums.

Just like Kadael said, you broke some rules there. You could have addressed the problem in a different way. In a way that was more mature would have been the better path to get you point across.

~ lock this thread please ~

Well it might just be me, but I found it disrespectful, not to mention in the entirely wrong place (regardless of its intent)

agreed...I really didn't think it was very funny even it that was its intent. I think you are the 16-year-old high school dropout that you're talking about in your original post. *sighs*
