[sheep_critter]

hehe
poor darky
noobs shouldnt ask guys who are "popular" for help.
[hehe, armer darky noobs sollten nicht die leute um hilfe bitten die populär sind]

 

[oz02]

All I can say is wow.

What has the world come to? *tears in eyes*

 

[{AR}Nazuel]

that must get sooooooooooo annoying

the newbies r taking over, hold onto your brains while you still can, they r spreading

 

[VGsatomi]

Well everyone starts off a newb. He may have seemed like a problem case, but the point is he learned something, and now he knows how to attach a weapon when he needs to. I commend Darky for the patience to help him, where most people wouldve given up after the first dozen "huh?"
-VGsatomi

 

[PitzerMike]

Nah, not true.

He didn't learn anything, because he didn't even WANT and TRY to understand what darky was telling him.

Also he should have tried it himself before and ask for help when he's stuck. And not ask darky from the beginning to do all the work.

 

[alfredx_sotn]

HAHAHAHAHAHA...

Oooops
Next time just block people like those.

 

[Dread The Undead]

hehe...
it must be annoying....

alfredx_sotn right - next time block those ppl

 

[DarkShadow]

LOL!!!

Some N00bs are really funny.
Poor Darky :lol:

 

[RaZoR]

LOL, i wouldn't have this patience and would search an excuse to leave this chat. Sure, every1 starts as a n00b, but he really doesn't want to learn anything. I suspose he thought: "hmmm... if i ask darky, he will solve my problem for me"

 

[Boom_Heffer]

Well i didnt know how to attach stuff like those... and if you call me a newb your I.Q. must be below a rock! cause actually! im a very good player... im really used to starcraft though... so im not used to triggers like this... even though ive been playing WC3 for quite a long long time... but you can just call me Mr. Roleplayer since i play rp's 24-7... heh i love RPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! eh thank goodness this is off topic lol.

 

[oz02]

But this guy didnt even try himself, he just asked darky27, and he wasn't listening to darky's answers.

 

[Sir_Raziel]

Newb - Be - Gone

LOL, that's a tearjerker.

When I was new to Warcraft 3 I Looked at another map and pretty much copied and pasted and I came out ok.

 

[WardenBlack]

"what catagoery
theres ai
animation
camera
i told ya already
theres no action
sure there is a special effect one
o
ok
you just didnt LOOKED AT THE FUCKING LIST
so just read the list "


now that is funny !

 

[orcfan32]

LOL!

All I gotta say is(to the newb): IF YOU CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO IN THE WORLD EDITOR, YOU ARE GONNA END UP IN THE INTENSIVE CARE SECTION OF THE HOSPITAL, CAUSE YOU MIND EXPLODED. WHY DID YOUR MIND EXPLODE? CAUSE IT WAS TOO LITTLE TO HANDLE HOW TO EVEN PUT A UNIT ON THE MAP!

Newbie: Whats intensive care, whats a mind, and..Are ewe Mad?

YEAH, WHY AM I ALL IN CAPS?

Newbie: Whats caps? WAIT, you still didn't tell me what intensive care, and a mind is..And most importantly, you didn't tell me if ur mad!

SHUTUP ALREADY!

Newbie: You don't like me anymore...

AGH! I NEVER DID LIKE YOU!

 

[SeaGull1723]

Yep, poor darky all right

 

[Artistical-w00t]

always blame the poor newbies... is it their fault they do not understand to much!?.. darky's just paishent enoughf to talk to them and explane them stuff.
we should all say thank you.

 

[Slave Master]

When i started mapping, i didn't have a clue what to do, so i downloaded the best maps i could find at the time and i studied the triggers until i understood them. That's what newbies should do.

 

[DarkShadow]

Did it the same way. I already had some experience using the SC editor (and the Freespace 2 editor, but that doesn't fit to WC3), all the other things I learned from the tutorial orc cpn and the other blizzard maps, and by try and error. Till now I never asked someone something concerning to WE itself (as I remember :roll: )
