The LEGIT Future of Q1

[Spork]

A rather "unwelcome fellow" posted a topic like this. He made several good points, but he's muddied the water so often - I'm shocked he had the guts. He will not be named, this only gives him power and continues to upset others. I think our time is more valuable than trashing him.

If he replies to this thread, I hope a compassionate Admin removes his posts.

I have some non-manipulative project ideas, I'd like to hear your ideas as well. I'm not looking to 'spearhead' a new movement or even be a part of it. I like ideas, I love how they 'roll around' and evolve.

As far as "Quake Evolution" goes, here is a short list of my favorites:

The Re-texture Project
Quake Reforged Bestiary
Remake Quake
Engine X
Pretty Water Mod

I stress these are MY preferences, I think they're great works. These projects are the end result of highly talented, motivated, amazing developers.

Projects I'd like to see:

Creature Re-modelling - I understand that the Quake creatures are Classic. I love classics, and I love re-works too. I don't want the underlying 'feel' of the creatures changed, I'd like to see them improved though. I want Authentic Furry Shamblers SO DAMN BAD. For some reason I also want dinosaurs, but that's just me.

Authentic Environs - I know geography and the natural way the Earth 'looks.' As fun as Quake is, sometimes it makes me cringe. Anything "Rocky", Grass, or Stone looks very hokey in Q1. I would LOVE to see some leafless Oak Trees, (have you ever seen them after Fall? Baddass creepy/cool)

I'd also like to see some major work on the Lava. Lava bubbling, spitting, hissing. Opacity/Translucency.

That's all I got for now.
I'll be posting ideas here off and on. I'm not expecting much participation, but if you have any ideas for a project, I'd love to hear about it!

Don't you have some other Bridge to lurk beneath ? & You smell like a rat.

God... I love suspicious people; I'm a suspicious person by nature myself . This is QuakeRoot. I said some rather mean things on his other posts and (because of that) preferred anonymity.

I hadn't thought of myself as Trollish, but I guess I can see it now. I honestly do want a venue for ideas to be rolled around. Sometimes it's almost like all the 'cool kids' are doing things. Maybe I just wanna be a cool kid, even if all I got are good ideas.

Electronic schizophrenia is my favorite form of schizophrenia. The real stuff is scary as hell.

I like you Mindf!3ldzX.

yeah, fuck anonymousness for the fairness of someones feelings or whatever. I'm proud to say whatever the fuck I say whenever the fuck I apparently end up saying something.
3..2..1..

So long as I hold Quake1 near and dear and I am capable, Kimp will always meet a baned fate. He is delusional into thinking that ignoring my posture (FUCK YOU KIMP,DIE IN A FIRE,FUCKING NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW,Internet hatred as its best = Mindz + Kimp = Ahab and White Whale.

The only hope Kimp has, is to pack his shit up and move away from his normal State/CITY, return to Quake1 from a new-location, and practice on not being that same fuckfaceidiot he was when he arrived in 2009,and that same fuckfaceidiot all the way into THIS POST, in 2012 3 years later.

This is his only hope, if he stays where he currently resides,every IP I find that leads to his "neck of the woods" will be banned. It's not like kimp is HARD TO DETECT, just wait for him to be liike


"SO, was blah blah the best in your clan?"
"Did you know " PLayer X"
"Can I have you quake children? I'll give you good head for Quake knowledge"

and other 100% MENTALLY RETARDED shit that he says. Hes trash, even discussing him should be a punishable offense. I like him as "He who should not be named".

[metchsteekle]

my favorite is "hey, are you wearing a red shirt that says 'Scribe' on the back"

at which point you lock all the doors and turn of all the lights and close all the blinds and wreath in a corner for the rest of the day also

This is evidence of a douche-bag, but if you're okay with that, I guess I am too...

The future of Q1, as a game and a community seems to be boiling down, NOT to:

Creativity
Excellent Ideas
Willingness To Share Ideas

But instead:
Disdain
Fuck You, I say what I want
Kill the messenger, and then any messenger after them.
I'm smart, smarter than you.
I HATE that guy! Hate! Hate! Hate! (Now I'm going to crap my pants)

I like the Q1 community too much to quit, but I'm not going to be hanging around here very much for the next 6 mo to a year. I know... no skin off your nose (or the communities collective noses) I have something in the works. When I have my beta I'll bring it, and see what ya'll think.

Otherwise, I've got better things to do than deal with Kimps, bruised egos, "Mario Fucking Princess Peach" avatars, and assholes on the sadly small remaining active Quake servers.

Love you all, but can't stand you right now. (And yes, Wicked, if that sounds gay, you can call me gay.) Incidentally... I just had sex with my wife, and it was great. Hope ya'll get laid soon and chill out.

[wicked_lord]

Lol, hope we get laid soon and chill out? Lone and behold my dearest friend, my wife is only a few feet away at nearly all times of the day, 1 snap of the finger and those legs fly open. I get laid while at work, home & on your birthday. Owning a trucking company and having the wife as a driving mate is best of both worlds. Oh and im horny so ill be back shortly. *SNAP*

You proceed from a false assumption: I have no ego to bruise.

[gothiccandy]

wow lots of testosterone flying around this post

[wicked_lord]

Garbage..

[MadGypsy]

@ QuakeRoot - don't split bro, not everybody wants to make people miserable with petty bullshit. I don't understand why you felt you need to make an alias, but I also don't see why it matters even 1% or why anyone here is so focused on making it an issue.

Ignore the dumb shit. This is your community too man. Leaving would be like giving your power to people that you don't even know. You "win" by keeping your power (staying) and completely disregarding the people that want to make issues over petty bullshit. In the end that is the only power they have - words of instigation. It's a power for weak people. Be a man bro, realize the bullshit for how insignificant it is and then multiply its insignificance by stomping on it with posts that continue the original topic/train of thought with complete disregard to the useless bullshit between.

know what I'm sayin'? Don't be a victim, be a force.

Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience,
