lukeiamyourdad Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Originally posted by DK_Viceroy I might be able to do better than that I might be able to get them to come here and give proof of their desires. Can't you just make a thread at whatever unbiased forum with regular fans, non-fanatical geeks that praise Lucas as a demi-god? Oh, theforce.net isn't such an unbiased forum Actually, I'd be amazed if you could prove that your source is totally unbiased. You should try doing a poll outside a gaming store, one done by an independant statistics company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DK_Viceroy Posted December 13, 2004 Author Share Posted December 13, 2004 Would a Mod team and it's supporters that work on mods for generals count I wonder since they don't do any Star Wars mods it is unbiased. I refer not the theforce.net I didn't even know they had forums and I'm hardly gonna do a poll outside a game store I'm not mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saberhagen Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 People who do mods for anything are likely to be geeks and not average consumers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DK_Viceroy Posted December 13, 2004 Author Share Posted December 13, 2004 Their consumers will hardly be geeks the consumers of such mods are the audience the game should reach which is the gamer and the enthusiastic gamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Uh...that was confusing. What saber meant was that the average consummer does not do mods for stuff. They might download it and install the mod and play it but it doesn't make them a geek. As a matter of facts, more players will play the original game then any mod that comes out for it(with the exception of Counter-Strike but that's a special case). If you check the numbers, there are more players for the original BF1942, UT2k4, etc. then for their mods. EDIT: Oh I forgot. If the supporters bother to visit the forums, they're geeks.

DK_Viceroy Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 though LIAYD it is though if I asked a few of a Mod's consumer's to come here just to post their opinions justify them, because you'll all ask for them to be justified and then most of them would propably leave how does that make them geeks? If they did stay that would make this forum a bit more active not that at present we're having much of a problem. Vostok will be gob-smackled to see this place so active again, I do hope he enjoys Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Man your posts are getting confusing again. So I have to justify their opinion? Is it that hard when somebody says:"I want a Yuuzhan Vong" and the reply is:"Why?" to jut answer the question? "Why do you want to have a Yuuzhan Vong Civ?" "OMG U SUCK 1'M G01NG T0 L34V3!!!!1111!!!!one!!!" ??? They are geeks just as you and me are. We're here on a forum. They're on a forum. They spend time on an internet discussion board. We all know they're geeks. Is it that hard to understand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DK_Viceroy Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 They are not geeks and I doubt many here will claim to be geeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 LOL So you can tell me openly, that you're not a geek then? All your knowledge about Star Wars EU does not make you one ? Laughable. Assume who you are. Geeks are not a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DK_Viceroy Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 Everyone has a hobby which becomes obsession for some it's football for us all it's Star Wars while Football may be more healthy our interest in Star Wars is a service to humanity.

lukeiamyourdad Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Being a football player makes you a jock, being a Star Wars fanatic makes you a geek. My argument stands. And you're seriously dillusional if you think being a Star Wars fan is a service to humanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DK_Viceroy Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 Someone has to dream the dream:D I do despise catogorisation I never did like the idea that you can slot a person into one catagory because in the real world you can't.

lukeiamyourdad Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Yet it is true and does exist. The real world is full of categorization whether you like it or not. Upper-White middle class, lower-white middle class, asians, black, brits, yankees, latinos... It all exist and it's all true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DK_Viceroy Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 Yes however no-one fits completly into one catagory. It may exist yes but it's still not a nice thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Why is not? Is so hard to accept what kind of person you are? So I am a french-canadian vietnamese north american of the first generation of immigrants to be born outside Viet Nam after the exodus at the end of the war. Socially, I'm a leftist who also happens to be geeky but a very competent soccer(football) player who does all sorts of sports all the time. Even if you don't fit in a single class, you're still part of it. Being a geek doesn't stop you from being a jock also but doesn't negate the former.

DK_Viceroy Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 I didn't say I wasn't accepting anything I'm just saying I don't accept the idea everyone fits into one catagory other than Human Being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Animals--->Mammals----> Primates---->Humans Basically, humans are primates who are mammals who are animals. Human being is a sub-class. You're part of a bigger picture then you can see. We do indeed fit in more then one category.
