@RockSauron most of us know we aren't great creators, and that some of us aren't or wouldn't have been good enough for this project, but you don't have to tell us that either... It doesn't make us feel too great!

But anyways, I can't wait to finally play these levels! (And I'm almost certain they'll be finished eventually!

Gah, I wasn't telling you you weren't good. People were saying I should have hired more, there wasn't anyone else who applied who was good. What, how am I supposed to dance around that issue?! People keep on telling me that I should have hired more people, THERE WASN'T ANYONE TO HIRE. What, should I just not answer that because the answer isn't "nice" enough? >_> People keep telling me to try to manage people better. IT'S NOT MY FRICKING FAULT NO ONE USES THE FORUM. I try and talk to them, but they don't respond, and then I am blamed for not trying hard enough.

So what, what do you want me to fricking do? Just sit here and have people tell me it's MY fault that nothing's happening? I keep trying to talk to people, but it ALWAYS ends with I'm being too mean by trying to get them to work. I'M FRICKING TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING YOU'RE SAYING. It's not my fault that half my team isn't responding to me when I try to work with them. So just stop telling me I should manage them better. IT'S NOT MY FAULT THEY DON'T RESPOND >_<

Best... comeback... ever....

Hmm... I'm just going to let things simmer down a bit and stay out of this thread for a bit. I really don't want to work things up anymore or insult anyone more than apparently I already have. Sorry. I really didn't mean to.

Best of luck to you and your team though, Rock :) I'll be back to check up on things! I'm rooting for you guys and gals!

Yeah... pathetic, unneccessary goodbye. Haha! Mostly a joke... mostly... Ha! :)

Okay, Well I'm terribly sorry I misunderstood you before! I didn't catch the "of people that applied" part! :)

No hard feelings? o.O

*hides behind piggabling just in case*

Id just like to say, your not an employer, your not HIRING anybody. They are just volunteering. And telling volunteers they arent good enough when you yourself arent the messiah of creating is pretty backwards.

Realized that the second attack should read: Flip 10 coins, if all are heads, the LBPCTG staff must finish the game immediately.

... Yes, I realize that >_>. I never said they had to work. People were just blaming me for being the reason this hasn't been done and saying I have bad management skills because of it. Our forum has been rather empty lately.

And so, just because I am not good at creating myself means that I should hire other people who don't create good enough to create...? How does that make sense >_>

Im not saying you should, but you should know that when you say your are looking for help more people that dont necessarily have the skills to produce the quality you are looking for will want to help than people who can. Everybody knows who the skilled creators are. You could pm them and ask the ones you would WANT to work with to help you so you dont have to worry about hurting feelings and stupid stuff like that. You know?

That is immensely insulting. I honestly have no understanding of why you throw insults out at me or refuse to talk to me. What have I done? What makes it so bad of a choiceto have hired me? Am I that bad of a creator or is there something else? I'm not starting anything, it's just troubling me.

As for Rock having to be a good creator to judge whether or not others are good, that isn't true. A large majority of people that do review or criticize others' work (whether it's movies, etc) haven't actually done anything better themselves. Thus, that isn't necessarily a fair statement.

Another thing, Rock has been and is still trying his best to get this done. God knows how many other things he wants to do with this being slightly in the way. It's not up to him. People should stop attacking him to get this done.

/end rant

Well, you aren't that bad a creator persay- it's also the fact that you left LBP a short time later, and I highly doubt you'd have managed to put as much work in- since you quit LBP a short while later and stuff. Yes.<_< >_>

... and why I don't talk to you... well, I like talking in my LBPC chat group thing, which you can't join since you have a and I hate multiple chat windows so /cough

Actually, the reason why I left LBP a short while after was because I didn't have anything to do *cough* a project *cough* and this was a sort of let down... yeah >_<

Listen Rock, I understand something like this is tuff on you... guess what? It should be! Bending others' will, or the art of management, is tough stuff... you just don't seem to make things any easier on your self... a year plus into this, and you still seem to be able to alienate --to down right insult those people who most want you to succeed. I might also point out, these people you've upset are the same people who make up your audience...so, it's touchy stuff. I really dont know who is a great creator... and who isnt... really. But I do know when I took to studying comphs' giveaway stuff from his infiltration level... for some reason Kernels name is on it... not sure what it means... but I am not naive enough to think "Name" creators are creating 100% of their own levels... not in this online create climate. It seems obvious that teams of creators responsible to themselves was the way to go... And the one team you actually had... ( I'm talking the props team) just dwindled away neglectedly... There was some good talent in that group, if you would have employed them properly or *gasp* opened up levels for them to tackle as a team... Your project would be done.

Some of the old props team still follow this drawn out saga... just to be apparently insulted... So how's that for dedication? So don't tell me about 'no peoples' Rock...

Now I'm not mad Rock and still want to see this succeed, but when all is said and done, I think you'll be just fine humbly accepting the accolades that will come your way... and tbh You deserve that! You're a good guy. But unfortunately, that means YOU gotta own this *crap* too. And it would make me personally feel alot better if I thought you were learning through this process... So do me a favour, I don't want to see another LBPCTG 2 comment alright? Personally, I cant stand thinking about it...

Im pretty sure the prop team fell apart because we stopped getting things to work on. A level woulda been fun. That reminded me though,i just went back and looked at some bearded warrior you made, it was phenominal. If that didnt get used, i dont know what did. And to top it all off it was made a whole year ago.

Is it me, or this project is like the Duke Nukem Forever of LBP?

next time on LBPCThegame: Drama of the century, we will see what happens to Rocksauron as he attempts to dodge many attacks towards him. Will he totally flip out? Will IGotFancyPants take off his Fancy Pants? All this and more on LBPCThegame: Drama of the Century!!

This is absolutely ridiculous. I always thought LBPC TG was a happy, work-together group project. But all these revelations. Personally, I don't think this is good for LBPC's image. Non-users come here everyday, I should know. This isn't the Play, Create, Share we're used to!
