Will everyone just shut up!? 1UP+, you said yourself that nobody should post unless they are fulfilling a request. Guess what you're doing? Posting while not fulfilling a request. Are you exempt to your little request there? Does that give you the right to bitch at everyone else in my thread about NOTHING!? No, it doesn't. I suggest you take your own advice and get the fuck out of my thread unless you're going to make a spritesheet. I know you're going to use what I'm saying against me, but I don't care. Why does it matter to you guys anyways? All I'm doing is asking a favor, like you said this board is for. The only thing making this thread anything other than me asking for a favor is you guys. All of you are debating about nothing. Maneko, I'm not refusing to pay the favor. Nobody that actually intends on making a spritesheet out of their own generosity has asked for money. Only you guys saying that nobody is going to unless I pay them. That's your opinion. You can go ahead and make your own thread for debating about this for all I care. Just keep it out of this one. It's getting annoying, and barely any of the posts in this thread are relevant to me asking a favor.
Honestly my comment had nothing to do with you. It was just me and 1UP as I questioned his views on the community's "good will." Although I admit it was wrong to hijack your thread.

That's okay. It's not your fault. In fact, it wasn't even you that hijacked the thread. Granted by posting about something irrelevant you contributed, but it was only 1 or 2 posts. I'm mostly mad at the people who
did derail the thread.

1up's is right though. most people around here wont give two shits for the random no one that appears out of nowhere posting for the sake of askign stuff for the random project they geraed on their math class.
again, this request board should always be a last resort, not a pool of wishes.
(wich in any case doesnt deny newcomers the option to make requests, its just that TSR being community driven, is obiusly easier to get a favor from people that already know you, know you're a cool guy and would help you with your stuff)
Okay, what the fuck? You're saying that I can't show up and ask for a favor, then you say that newcomers can make requests if they want to? I'm starting to think you're full of shit (Well, I have been for a while, but that's not the point). Most of your statements are contradicting, and all of them are irrelevant, which in itself is contradictory to what you commanded everyone else to do. Not to mention how rude you have been to me. I've also noticed how you keep bringing up that "Requesting for Dummies" thread. I've been following your little rules. All I'm doing is asking a favor. The only thing that could possibly be wrong with this thread has been caused by you and your consistently asinine and irrelevant posts. And in that last post you made, you go on about how I have to get everyone to think I'm cool before I'm allowed to make requests. I can't post anywhere unless I make sprites, which I lack the ability to do. Which is why I'm putting out a request. If I were to pop out of nowhere and post in a general talk forum or something, you'd criticize me for the exact same thing you're criticizing me for here. Which apparently is not being popular. It's not like I'm going to post tons of threads in this board. This is probably the only thread I'll post on this site. Seriously. As I said earlier, take your own advice and get the fuck out.
For a guy who claimed to "being done with this site" and "not caring anymore" you seem quite desperate to keep demonizing anyone who posts an opinion different than the one you expected them to have, AND you look even more desperate to always have the last word at everything said here. All while trying your best to be a grade A+ dick out of spite.
Nothing of that wiil provide you with the sprites you wanted, neither here or wherever you go next.
Now you're putting words in my mouth. I said that I probably wouldn't post much more here, since I am no good at making sprites. I didn't say I was leaving. Also, I didn't say I don't care anymore. I said I didn't care if 1UP+ used my words against me. The only reason I'm having the last word is because I'm sure people would be saying worse things if I just up and left. And one last thing, I'm not desperate. Even if nobody here wanted to help, I'd keep trying on different sites. The having the last word part is pointless, especially because you claimed that I said I was done with this site. I'd be proving you right either way.
I apologize for losing my temper, but 1UP+ was right. People shouldn't post here unless they're talking about the subject of this thread, being the favor I'm asking. I've calmed down a bit now, so I hope everybody stops with the rude and irrelevant comments.
OH MY GOD ALL OF YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP
Thank you. I think as long as everyone just stops posting things that are irrelevant, the thread won't become a mess again.
I was talking to you too
you're only encouraging people to continue posting """"""irrelevant""""" things(they're perfectly relevant, but whatever) by acknowledging the posts to begin with
don't act like you're better than anyone else in the argument
I'm not saying I am. I apologized for losing my temper. And the only reason those posts became relevant is because the thread got derailed, which is everybody's fault. Including mine. I just want it to stop, because so far it's just 4 pages of posts that have nothing to do with the original subject of this thread. Can we just get back to the original topic? It's totally okay for you guys to express your opinions, but please do so in another thread or via PM.
Alright so since the thread is back ontrack I have two Questions.
Lieutenant Pie, Have you found people willing to help?
Also what would you do to try and possibly gain the help of others (Possibly and alternative then money?) so next time it doesn't turn into a bitchfit stormfight?

I found one person who might be willing to help, and that's Flare. I also contacted several other people, but only two have responded, one being Flare. The other person couldn't help and politely declined. Also, I did't want to come off as desperate by just saying "I can help you with something in exchange" right off the bat, I think it will be fine as long as everyone knows that
if needed, I will help them with something in exchange for sprites, so long as I am actually able to do it. For example, I can't sprite, so if someone asked me to make sprites for them if they make sprites for me wouldn't work.
Well hopefully you'll find someone looking for what you are willing to "sell" per say. (Listing what you can do, even if it is just "General helping" does help a long way too)
So since you did find help in the end this thread was a success, which is a good thing. I hope it all goes well.
Thanks, Kat. I'm not sure if there's much I can help with, but if someone asks I'll tell them if I can (can't think of much that everyone here is interested in).
