I love creating, I love the game, I love everyone. I am just posting a thread that will appease the gods of thread locking...and to make up for my last few slightly smack talky F4F posts. I know I may have the madest of mad skills in playing levels, it is not my fault I am that good, and it is not others fault they are not...but perhaps me pointing out that they lack said skills is not the most Kharma positive thing to do. So for all those around just beacuse I talk smack about your skills, I still love you, just because I complain about bugs that take days and days of my limited home time to fix...I still love this game...just because MM has not responded to my issues...I still love the company and even watched some Wooster and Jeeves last night (S. Fry)...just because I talk smack about not getting plays, does not mean anything...I just want feedback...and I am trying to find every way to get it so I can stop being so OCD on fixing me level and start one of my others...just because I talk smack about bad F4F posts that say next to nothing does not mean I don't like the F4F posters...it just means I don't respect them and don't not not like them. Oh you know I could not resist saying something negative at the end. LBP 2 I love you. LBPCentral I love you too...and how you don't lock threads no matter how much better the thread's poster's skills are at pwning levels...ok...back to finals. (this message was intended for its reader)

Is this one of them "Back hand complements" I keep hearing about?

Lol, love the reply! Also just two seconds prior had posted about the use of "parentheses". P.S. Who wants a boring front handed compliments anyways...wait would front hand imply a normal compliment...or just getting slapped? Off to look up the etymology of the term. Edit: Turns out the internet is knid of lame for looking this up. It seems to equate it to tennis or evil left handies in the glory days of the dark ages...but while some of it may be so, there is also strong indications that back-handed or "left-handed" is just from older words meaning "directed the other way or wrong direction"...thus forward handed or right handed would mean a compliment, while a back-handed insult would also mean a compliment...as thus "you would make a horrible politician", meaning they are too honest to enter politics...thus a compliment.

This thread is off topic. Locking it now..... ....nah, just kidding. Sorry, after the dig at thread locking I couldn't resist. I know I may have the madest of mad skills in playing levels, it is not my fault I am that good, and it is not others fault they are not... ...and if you have a fault, which you obviously don't, it's modesty.

Love the replies, perhaps it was the lack of sleep this past few days from finals, but I was jonesing for some smack talk. ...and if you have a fault, which you obviously don't, it's modesty. If I was not suffering from a certifiable abundance of what people term "delusional" self-pride, I would assume that was sarcasm ...oh have to run the guys in white coats are saying I have to take my medicine.

Heh. It may not be delusional, and it may in fact be perfectly justified (though really there's a difference between pride, which is bad, and simply being aware of your strengths, which is good), but being so open about how awesome you are or think you are generally doesn't win a person many friends, especially when it comes across as if you look down on the majority of the site members. This is from a post in the very next thread in this section, 'cuz I'm too lazy to go looking through your post history to see what else you've said: Well the other posters may be trying to help you with options, but the issue is they may not know what art is. It is not their fault, most of them think that Dadaism is a thing kids go through when they are learning to talk. But if you want a good art level versus a good "art" level (art is in parentheses because I was saying it sarcastically..kind of like I am "sure" you will "check out" the levels everyone here has listed) then you may want to check out mine, not because they are "art", but because I have mad skills. I've underlined the parts that come across as particularly abrasive. I'm sure it's not your fault. You probably think humility is meant for people who aren't as awesome as you. ...... see what I did there? All joking aside, it's worth considering that the truly great people are rarely the ones who boast in their greatness. The ones who boast are almost always overblown, full of themselves, and generally not all that great. I hope I'm awesome enough that my humble advice may be of some use to your greatness

Lol Dadaism may lack in many appeals to me as well, but it was done in a good spirit, a revolution that set a foundation for Surrealism...which I really do love...that art nouveau and art deco (which are less to do with Surrealism, but just had to mention them). As for the other post, I did mention several others...but as I am shamelessly trying to get feedback, and any press is good press...I mentioned me first...perhaps in good taste I should have mentioned them first. I don't think I am better than others here (excluding those who post about queuing your level on F4F posts...but that is more to do with genetics), but it would be a bit drab to say...oh I love so and so...that and I don't think anyone other than dragon has ever mentioned me...so I can't afford modesty to get public mention...to get feedback. To a certain degree I think angering a few people may make them want to check out a level to talk smack about it, and since I am looking for feedback then I think I would more than likely get a more honest review from the ticked reviewer than the nice guy who would take pity on mine level. (the usage of mine was on purpose, just wanted to sound german) As for art...anything a person creates to try and send a message or elicit emotions is art. So most levels are such...so I felt I could post in the thread by the very definition of the level. I do spend hours on simple little details to try and get the most. I made the brick stickers and peiced together this town http://i55.tinypic.com/24muct2.jpg but with the idea of wanting to create this in the next level http://i54.tinypic.com/2rh8mlj.jpg http://i55.tinypic.com/b6ssnq.jpg Not saying it is great art (well I was in that thread...but in a smacktalking overtone), but it is a style I tried to create...thus it is definable as art...possibly just not as deep as one would like. Oh and I did make the animation inmy sig and the avatar pic...so that is kind of art too.

Oops. I thought I edited out the Dadaism comment before you saw it but I guess not. I moved it to the art creators thread where it fit better. The pics look pretty good. I guess I should take a look at your levels.
