It's like the whole YouTube thing... for a long while you could just post whatever you wanted as long as it didn't contain nudity. YouTube was pretty much of the stance that the users were responsible for what they uploaded, whether it was copyrighted or not didn't interest them.

It seems like TDC and CT are of the same sort of mindset here. They're hiding behind the fact that it was a user who made this. I know it hasn't been stated explicitly, it just seems that way to me. I'm not saying it has to be taken down, because it is a "good example of what MMF HWA can do" or whatever, but an addendum or disclaimer explaining where the idea came from is in order, I think.

There are legitimate gripes to be had here. "Let's not fight" is one thing, but "You don't fight and we'll keep doing what we're doing" is completely something else. Why censor the gripes, Rikus, and not bother addressing the issue on your own site? (On a related note, few people late to the party have posted some Construct comments since you deleted them, you might want to get on that )

And Ashley, I wouldn't get on Snakesoft for posting there, I don't think he's seen this thread yet.

Edit: I just realized that Sphax used the exact term "other product" when commenting about Construct... Hmm... Smells of CT bull**** to me (see Dines' edited post, more examples on page 2). I could just be reading into things though.

Edit by Ashley: Language (when am I gonna put a filter in?)

It's like, totally beside the point but the Ghost Shooter demo for Construct is open source. It comes as a template with Construct. Just sayin'.

Also:

That's all, i do not see any reason why our 2 communties can't help eachother and share our creativity. Instead of fighting lets work together.

Thanks for stopping by to tell us this. I totally agree. But perhaps you could mention it to your own forum members as well.

Have a good night,

This thread has now taken a turn for the creepy.

Doppel ... no no no NO!

No West up in this Kanye!

Um... Daft Punk much? Forget that Kanye West thing.

Illness is nature's way of saying "i'm in ur base, killin all ur dudes." Don't mess with nature, man.

Get better soon

I know. I program and give away Construct for free. All I ask is that you don't get in to flame wars in the first place that indirectly damage the reputation of what I otherwise consider to be an excellent program and community.

Too much to ask?

Of course not.

Hopefully I made the deadline. I posted my last comment before I noticed your warning.

It wasn't anything particularly flamey, though.

But you can't even make a simple platformer in MMF? I don't understand where you're coming from to say MMF is bad, yet I just downloaded a game you made in which is like something I made when I first downloaded game maker? :/

Hey now, I just tried Geronimo and it's a pretty damn decent start. Good pixel work, good animations, decent control. The sky needs work, and the enemies need AI and collision, but it's well on it's way to becoming a good platformer.

And I sincerely doubt the first thing you ever made with Game Maker was anywhere near as good as this, considering that most people who have been using Game Maker for a while still haven't made anything as good as this.

Sorry bout that, the hotfixer should be running again. Just open Construct and it should grab a working platform movement.

I already sent it to him a few days ago

But it's good to know the hotfix is up again.

"Five stars. Way better than any construct sillyness. A shame people that have used click products for so many years suddenly become little scirra fanboys."

I lol'd.

Same here. -Mr. Sneeze- is about as vehemently fanboyish as you can get.

CT moderators are censoring the very name of Construct on their forums (Wow! We've achieved an "unspeakable" status!)

Holy... wow.

Now that's funny.

I don't care, good publicity IMO.

I suppose that's true. As long as you don't post on the CT forum.

"Hey guys check out this game I made with another product"

"Sweet, what did you use to make it?"

"I told you already... another product. Here's the download link: You want MMF instead."

Yeah, he siad this before making that edit:

I've presented a tech demo which was built by a Clicker who don't speak english. I've just helped for the shaders of this demo no more, no less.

...

Another thing is that when someone create a Mario Clone, nobody will complain him for it. Take care to vote (if so) for the tech demo and not other things.

Sorry, but Mario clones are one thing. This is an exact duplicate of what people see as "the rival product" or at worst, a "rip-off rival product." There's already dissension over Construct on TDC, and this is just fanning the flames.

What the hell?
