>Im really pissed off today.
Why? Its the leak your problem? >i really pissed off from what manip said: "But from a development point >of view I really hope the HLDS source has been leaked, it will give us >the opportunity to develop the type of server we have always wanted but >never had. It will allow us to link into something better than Vac and >to improve the half-life experience. " >Manip from a development point of view its your best interest to respect >these rights. if you do not respect them then why should other people >respect the rights of things you created? I agree with you. Etically can be not good to have profit with the leaked code. And a the same time I understand Manip. He can really fix some annoying problems, or do black magic, or ...etc.. now Its posible stuff that before not. >I really hate even developers, >programmers in specific, when they violate IP rights, from using warezs >to using stolen code. I agree with you. > the second thing manip said that made my blood >boiled was his cockyness and the fact that he thinks he can make HLDS >much better. this really annoys me because he, I not agree with you. Code is not soo complex or impresive, and every version of game N can have more features (to become N+1) and N+1 can have more features... .you can speedup a application simply removing unused stuff, soo a delete key is usefull to customize a app for your need. Its not rocket science. > i think, believes that >violating the these to make something better justifies his cause of >violating the rights. also, he believes he can do a better job then the >programmers at valve. Why not? where humans after all. And limited by time, or other stuff... You can waste 3 moths of real time improving a texture loader, if you want, and.. sure, you will find a optimized way or flexible or safe. > i, like someone else on this list, i think, feels >that this is an insult to valve. tei, you i believe are worse then >manip, Hahahaha.... Why? > you suggested things to valve about security after the fact that >this events occured, this like a psychic telling you the future from >three days ago. honestly, how useful is that? if you suggested these >things a few months ago then it might be useful but now your just >stating the could ofs and should ofs... Excuse me, but I have suggest not to use Outlook Express moths ago. Please read your mailbox. I have bored this list with the topic "please don't use OE" at more than 3/4 mails. > tei, i would also like to say >that YOU fill my inbox with useless crap and this crap provide nothing >as in meaningful content, good questions or awnsers, to the list. So you think my idea about enhanced AI is crap? or what is your opinion about? Its this mail, your mail, really amazing usefull for HL coders? I have mails with suggestions, and crap, with code, and crap, with questions, and crap.. As Theodore Sturgeon say,... 90% of everything is crap! Its not only my mails. >anyways, to sum up my rant, i really dont see why people submit >criticism that isn't constructive, that also includes should of and >could of type statements, and provide suggestions that are down right >stupid. yeah, i know, this is a pretty stupid post, I agreee with you >not really by >providing meaningfull content, and i know i just shot my own foot by >sending this in. oh well, just my opinion. Evile like something Evile! Or both! I am a newbie here, I am learning from pro coders here. Hehehe... I am sorry 90% of my mails where crap. I will try to writte less and write better.
