ACA Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 A wise man (Tsuroki) once said: --------------------QUOTE-------------------- HEY. Quit it. This guy just posted somthing he found out and thought it was neat. Give him a break. Sure it was known, but if you hadn't been here for a long time and you just found somthing cool out, wouldn't you post it? You are now one of my favourite mods. What ACA said was nothing but truth. Sure, it's been posted before, but a new wave of members are going to come through - especially a week or so after VC:PC comes out. You're going to have to stop telling them all that "this was already known", and take it as it comes, because there will be so many new members everywhere that don't know sh*t about the game. Besides, Gnobe, as we all know, you've basically played out every bloody glitch in the game - of course you know, but there are easily dozens of other who dont. It's like as soon as one person says "Already been discovered", everyone else takes it as a signal that it's okay to start bashing. --------------------QUOTE-------------------- Those wise words inspired me to make these topics. (One in each vice section) As you all know, Vice City for the PC will be coming out shortly. And with the release of VC PC, there will be a flood of new people pouring in. The majourity of these people will have never played vice city. It is inevitable that they will be asking, what some people refer to as "n00b questions". I have noticed quite a lot lately, people being flamed for posting things they just discovered. An example: Posted by: vice-playa on May 04 2003,08:07 < click > Put the very front of you'r bike ti'll it's touching the skin change marker then hope off then go infront of you'r bike run at it hit triangle then jump on then Tommy should be running on the bike cool or what, I jus discovered it today whilst in a hurry, very cool or what? Some of the replies were: This, this was one of the most oldest discoveries on Gta Vice City... sorry, but, we all knew Hmm... where've you been in the last couple of years? This has been all over the forums for ages, sorry. You don't run ON your bike, you kinda merge with it... it can be done with cars and helis too ok stfu gnobe ite?its not old maybe a month so stop getting all pissy dumass Ok, dude, first, wtf is your problem? Gnobe is cool, you don't have to be like that. And seriously, who doesn't know this trick? I bet half the people who don't own vice city already know this. Oh, and I can barely see the pic, bad quality. This is unacceptable behaviour. If this is what one person gets for posting somthing already known. I cannot begin to imagine how bad it will be when the PC version comes out. Think of it as starting new. When VC PS2 came out, we posted all these new discoveries and secrets and all. Now lets let the PC users do the same. If you must, leave the Vice City forums altogether for a while. Put yourselves in their shoes. Pretend Vice City came out on PC first. How would all of you feel if you just got the "newly released" Vice City PS2 version and found somthing you thought was the best thing ever. You check back the next day and realize your topic has gone to hell with all the PC users complaining "We found this out as soon as the game was released!" and "Where have you been for the past year?" Please, respect the newcomers. Help them with your expert knowledge of the game rather than making them feel like they've just committed a crime. That way, we will have more members wanting to stay longer and become vets rater than posting a few times and leaving because of the inhospitiality of other members. This also reduces the risk of members re signing up to spam the hell outta this place and get revenge on those who pissed them off. -ACA EDIT, NVM. I think I might just move it to general discussion. I guess I could post a link to it in the other forums...tomorrow. I'm to tired... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Gnobe- Posted May 10, 2003 Share Posted May 10, 2003 Well if i ever said anything was 'old' or 'known', i am never meaning to flame peeps, but sometimes they might take it the wrong way, then start flaming, erm, But i am never a flamer,,...
