Hey! If you don't ask, you don't get. Unfortunately, sometimes if you do ask, you still don't get. :P

You're making me feel guilty now, after you sent me that special version of the ROTGS music and all. I guess I'll have to live with the shame. :oops:



Edit: Ok, this is risky, I guess it could piss you off thoroughly. Hopefully you will find it interesting instead. A couple of months ago, to occupy my time when I was off work ill, I raked around my HD and found a few levels I liked and decided to see how they would work as Aspects levels.

No prizes for guessing - I've always liked RotGS, and with its subway setting, it was ideal for the future Britain scenario of the Incanese invasion in Aspects. Especially as quite a few of the table top Aspects role playing sessions have taken place in the extensive tubeway tunnels of Britain.

Anyway, I just threw together a few screen shots to give you an idea of what my re-interpretation of your level is like. Don't worry, there's only one copy of this and it won't be leaving my HD. I'm not going to re-distribute your work. It'd be too much effort to try and extract only the resources needed by this level anyway - and there would still be a lot even if I did it. Too many for me to post anywhere. So anyway, the page is linked below. I'll not leave it up for long because it's taking a bit of space on my site. I'll take it down even quicker if you say so. The site contains 15 640x480 screenies, so it takes a while to load (on my modem anyway).

My bad

Post by DrewbieDoobie007 »

whoops, didn't read far enough into it>
I guess I have seen the Impse (short for Impsex im guessing) pretty funny stuff, but it has been driven into the ground at DW :roll:

Also, I think something like that is cool once but it really has no place in every single post. Blocking the Image isnt necessary, seems that nobody under the age of (insert politically correct number here, 18 I think) should be playing Doom anyway, so it isnt like it's too racy for the fan base. All I'm sayin is use it in moderation, have some self control, that way it is a humorous suprise to see the humping imp, instead of a constant eyesore. :shock:

(For instance, if somebody asks you what your doin, and you say YOUR MOM -- Hilarious, but that got old fast because of dumb kids usin it too much. But after not hearing it for a month, and then hearing somebody shout YOUR MOM as an answer to your question, gives you a pretty good laugh, catch my drift?) :D

You're Mean. :x

I personally know of a lot of people under 18 playing doom (including myself), so it's not so big a deal. However, the Impse has pretty much gotten out of hand. Like you said, funny the first time, but after a while, it gets pretty old.

Just because he thinks that someone under 18 shouldn't be playing Doom, doesn't make him mean. I mean, after seeing the stuff in US highschools (YES, like Columbine (SP?)), he has every right to be jumpy about 'underage' people playing violent video games. What you think is mean, is his definition of 'underage.'

You should be flattered that he wants to protect you. ;)

One other point I'd like to make is that even if a lot of people are doing something, doesn't make it 'not so big a deal.' There are tons of examples of this, even sayings that parent's love to give ('If so-and-so jumped off a cliff, would you do it too?'), and I'm sure you've heard the most popular ones, so I won't go in to anymore.

lol i first started playing doom when i was 6, my friend was 5. i am now 13 and am activily playing half-life, counter-strike, doom ][, HeXeN and etc.

I feel that if the parents are comfortable to let thier children play these types of games, go ahead. But, they need to pay attention to their habbits and or activities. Most parents do, but some parents dont give a damn and crap like that happens.[/quote]

I do feel that 5 and 6 is too young to be playing Doom and the like. Nothing against you, Zell, but I don't see it as something that would promote good development in a child that age.

That's true, it really is up to the parent what they want to have their child do and/or play on the computer. (Or watch on television, even.) But, I personally wouldn't let my child(ren) play something like that until they turn _maybe_ 16. (Despite my age, but Wolf3D and Doom was still VERY new technology.)

I DO say. It's an honest comment directed towards someone who related to the forum that he started playing Doom when he was 5 or 6.

That being said, and in responce to your link, I don't think that violence (or the art of creating it) is in the best interest of the child, even if you are attemping to use it as something to promote any type of learning. Use an actual program directed towards the age of the child that would probably do the same thing you are attemping to do with Doom, etc. without the violence and possible distruction of young innocence.

I made that above comment (along with the use of the link) because I was just SHOCKED that a six-year old could even create Doom maps.

I wonder what he's up to now... :roll:
