Twinsun Are Magic Ball Users Dead?
Probably a stupid idea for a thread...

But, I haven't seen any users on here in forever.

The times have certainly changed!

I hope people still like to keep this site going.

I would like to apologize for my past stupidity (to anyone who I was rude to).

Maybe it's because forums are a little old fashioned? I see a lot of activity on some Facebook groups. But I still check this forum out from time to time because of the interesting subjects!

I'm sorry, Polaris. Well... Where has everybody been then? Facebook?

Edit: I just realized that Xesf and Lupin released an LBA2 project... Wow, I'm very dumb.

Well you choose the "best" time to send this message :/ In my opinion now is awesome time for LBA universe and more stuff will probably be happening in closest future. Generally it may look otherwise when you check forum everyday but you need to remember that the higher quality content is not created overnight.

If you ask Xesf, Lupin or Jasiek how much hours they spend working on their projects you may get really surprised.

Same goes for Angelus
There may not be much activity on the forums, but the LBA community is still alive.
Surprisingly so, after so many years.

Ok, glad to hear that people still come. I'm not trying to be rude... I'm glad you guys aren't dead.

I'm sorry if I upset you. I'm well aware of the time on these projects... I need to start doing my own really, really badly. The truth is, I need to put more time and effort into my own projects. Most of you guys are way ahead of the game.

I'm not upset on you :P If I was so easy to upset I would need to be constantly upset. You really should learn to approach messages like that with distance.

About "ahead of the game" I would argue here ;] I don't know if you remember this thread : https://forum.magicball.net/showthread.php?t=16309 which is dated 2012-06-09 and last updated in 2012-06-12. First message is that you worked on it 3 days. Lets do math: 3 days + 3 days in post this give us 6 day.

Lets compare this with rest:

Jasiek project: announced Dec 2017 new update Feb 2018 - 3 months
Xesf and Lupin project: started June 2016 announced Feb 2018 - 2 years.
My project: started Nov 2010 - 8 years

As you noticed you had head start comparing to most of us. My stuff taking ages to deliver and as some proven (https://forum.magicball.net/showthread.php?t=18120) they can make great projects a lot quicker.

I don't writing this to pick on you but you need to understand that reason we are ahead is not because we are better or we are more talented but because we put all this time into it. You giving up before you starts. And don't write

Truth is that you don't need to. Nobody will force you to do it. But without it you will also never achieve stuff that you are "envy" about when you look on projects of others.

Ok, I won't spread anything. I specifically remember that you did though. Now it only means you're lying to me.

Amazing how you just keep making it worse, now you're calling me a liar, too. For your information I don't use words such as "douchebag", and I don't even hang around here for a year. And this is so offtopic, how about you check the link from my first post in this thread instead of all this nonsense?

PS: I just did a search on the forums and theres no evidence of your claims: so let me properly insult you now for all this nonsense and this horrible topic title: MrQuetch, you inconsiderate douchebag. Voilá! Hope you are happy now.

Actually, no - you're not helping. By the way, look at your posts - you've got quite a lot. Okay fine, hate me all you want. I do remember you called me an egocentric person. If I find that link I'll post it to you specifically to make you angry. You made fun of a drawing I had years ago - and it really hurt at the time. Thanks.

Here's the link. You called me something else, but still. Look at the end of the page. I'm trying to back my claim. If you can't back this, then you lose:

https://forum.magicball.net/showthre...ht=Celebration

By the way, I think it's amazing your search failed to find this.
