Conner Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 *shaking his head* So, basically, you're telling us that you're a masochist or a glutton for punishment due to boredom?
prettyfly Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I've got spare time because I'm on holidays and I haven't really been feeling bored. Anyway, I find the guy funny. He's a joke. I read it so I can be amused by his ramblings.
Conner Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 I can kind of relate to that though I don't find him quite funny enough (as much as sad) to use him and his posts for entertainment. :shrug:
Arthmoor Posted April 12, 2011 Author Posted April 12, 2011 Trolls have taken over the real modders abandoned work and are releasing tweaks every few months to harvest their kudos. Nothing but minor rehashes of the same old mods has led to the Official Oblivion mod forum barely managing a page of new replies a day. Wow. Just as delusional as ever. The BGS Oblivion forum is easily still pulling in 3-4 pages worth of activity a day. Now if he were talking about the FO3 and F:NV forums he'd be right, those are lucky to see 4 pages of replies in a week. I'm not even sure what he means by rehashes of the same old mods. But the moment this news reaches certain city builders that will change because they love interfering with my modding fun. Right, of course, because we sit and wait to see what he makes and then go out of our way to plop stuff down in his way. It would be more accurate to say that he's getting in our way and interfering with our modding fun since he decided to stick a bunch of stuff in the cities after we were there first Revisionist history as usual.
Dallen68 Posted April 12, 2011 Posted April 12, 2011 Well, we all knew he couldn't stay away from Oblivion for too long. He's actually got like 3 new mods up. About Trolls: I think he's refering to you, Samson. All Natural. For some reason, this particular mod has his panties in a bunch. Also Better Cities, Open Cities. Open Better Cities. Then again, he's still hiding in his guild, not participating in the community as a whole; so it's best to not worry about him to much. It's rather unfortunate, as he does have talent as a modder.
Arthmoor Posted April 12, 2011 Author Posted April 12, 2011 Oh yes, I know he's referring to me about the trolls part. And Vorians too. The guy has been harping on the same thing now for 3 years straight. Not sure what his problem is with All Natural though, except that it requires Wrye Bash and he's absolutely ape shit against that program. Probably because he hasn't got a clue about how it works. It hasn't got anything to do with the fact that I'm on the project team. I was way back when Chong Li announced it to the world. It wasn't something I intended to do but it just happened. His lack of interaction with the actual community (his gang of insular cultists don't count) is exactly why he doesn't know just how active everything still is, and that it's likely to get MORE active once Skyrim comes out and not LESS.
Dallen68 Posted April 12, 2011 Posted April 12, 2011 Oh, because you combined Chong Li's All Natural with AWS and Enhanced Weather. Then you had the audacity to include AWLS and Immersive Interiors. On his planet, that's stealing those peoples' works. We'll ignore the fact they seem to have disappeard from the planet. On Wrye Bash: How is not knowing how it works a problem? Lot's of people drive cars without knowing how they work. 90% of the time, you click the "mod checker" button, and do what it says. (Well, hopefully you have BOSS too, because BASH can mess up if certain things aren't in order.)
Arthmoor Posted April 12, 2011 Author Posted April 12, 2011 Uh. AWS and NW were already incorporated by the time I came into the picture. Chong Li did that himself. When Wrinklyninja came along we swapped out AWS with EW - EW was his mod, so there was no issue there. Then we got permission from HTF to include the updated AWS textures. So there's no ripping off of anyone going on here. The project has simply been passed down from one modder to the next. I realize that's a completely foreign concept to him but that's how mod communities actually work. We have not integrated AWLS or Immersive Interiors btw. Those remain entirely separate mods and will stay that way. Something else he'd know if he were actually paying attention instead of spitting out complete bullshit to his cultists. He knows full well that the Oblivion community at large has very little toleration for theft, even of Giskard's own work.
Dallen68 Posted April 12, 2011 Posted April 12, 2011 I meant natural interiors, but that's neither here nor there. Point made. If you didn't intergrate AWLS, I wonder how I got it? Immersive Interiors I got from Nexus, just got confused with what was what.
prettyfly Posted April 12, 2011 Posted April 12, 2011 AWLS; you mean the window lighting mod? Is it possible that you downloaded and installed it? :wink: I imagine most of Giskard's folks don't even have a clue what those mods do... Also, mentioning dying communities; Tesnexus has got 443 new members and nearly a thousand new posts so far today. We should really be proud at how we drive so many people away from our communities, shouldn't we.
Dallen68 Posted April 12, 2011 Posted April 12, 2011 Yes, that is possible. :whistle: If Giskards folks, show even the slightest hint of knowing what those mods do, he bans them from his guild. I know, I used to be one of them. I posted on Tesnexus like 50 times today, myself.
prettyfly Posted April 12, 2011 Posted April 12, 2011 If Giskards folks, show even the slightest hint of knowing what those mods do, he bans them from his guild. I know, I used to be one of them. Maybe he should be an Arab dictator or something. Or Stalin. I posted on Tesnexus like 50 times today, myself. Well you've been busy. :smile:
Arthmoor Posted April 12, 2011 Author Posted April 12, 2011 Everyone wave to Doombuggie - chances are he's monitoring this topic now that it's been revived :devil:
prettyfly Posted April 12, 2011 Posted April 12, 2011 That's Giskard's administrator, isn't it? anyway...*waves*
prettyfly Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Hey, go back to that page from Giskard's site I posted and scroll down to the bottom of the comments. Is it just me, or does it look like he's not even aware that Oblivion can't utilize multi-core PC's properly? (or his followers for that matter :tongue:)
Arthmoor Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 Yeah, he's not even aware that it won't utilize more than about 15% of a second core. The other 2/4/6 won't even be touched.
Dallen68 Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 I didn't know it could utilize multi-core "at all". I think I read somewhre it has real problems with it. However, it looks to me like there talking about whether or not overclocking the CPU will provide better performance, and the fact that the one guy has an "Octo-Core" is incidental. (I've never heard of it but...OK.) The answer to the question at hand seems to be: Not really. Buying more RAM might, having more storage might, having a better video/audio card might. Actually using some utilities like wrye bash and boss and TES4Edit might. Oh, wait, those are cardinal sins in the land of Giskard.
Arthmoor Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 Well we wouldn't want to offend their religious beliefs now would we :P
prettyfly Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Or you shall be burned at the stake for heresy! :devil:
prettyfly Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 And all hail their self-installed god. He is one of the Greatest ever Oblivion modders, after all.
Dallen68 Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Some of the best work done by me on this site and others was done during constant attacks and high stress levels. Fighting of trolls and rip off teams with one hand, maintaining a forum with the other and creating excellent mods through pure force of will. Sieg Hiel! with an unrivalled quest mod list and unquestioned expertese and that has to really piss of the trolls who did all they could to stop me doing it No one ever tried to stop him. Someone might have tried to help him be an even better "worlds greatest modder", but I digress. Find your real friends...because they tell you when your being an ass... You mean like, right now? :grin:
Arthmoor Posted April 19, 2011 Author Posted April 19, 2011 Constant attack? I'd sure like to know who's supposed to be doing this. Because of course I have nothing better to do than make troll accounts to pester him with. :rolleyes: Unquestioned expertise? Actually, because he refuses to use tools designed to make average modders into experts..... but I digress. None of us has ever tried to stop him from generating so many dirty mods though. But we will label them as such in those tools. And yes, Giskard, you're being an ass.
prettyfly Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Its highly unfortunate because if it wasn't for his irrational behaviour and flat refusal to acknowledge he gets things wrong and complete unwillingness to learn off others, he could be one of the leading modders in the community. As Conner said, to bad he didn't focus on modding rather than fighting imaginary trolls.
Dallen68 Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Then, one might wonder what exactly he's comparing himself to when he bills himself as "one of the best modders out there" . He's either banned or refuses to participate in all four of the major communities out there. "I'm sitting all alone in an empty room; therefore I'm the greatest king that ever lived."
