Point Commissions (using deviantART's Point Currency)

[LooneyTunerIan]

Since I already know that requesting may not be the best method into getting sprites, textures, models and sounds ripped, especially now that I'm already hated and loathed by everyone on this site, so I figured I might try Commissions instead.
But not the "monetary/paid" commissions you might be thinking about. (Because my dad is telling me NOT to spend ANY money from my bank account because I'm on student loan. And when you're on student loan, it means that you are not allowed to spend any money from your account at all.)

But instead, how about if we try Commissions in a much different way?

For those of you who have deviantART accounts, there is a currency system feature called "Points".

I may not be able to pay with actual money, but for those who are trying to collect a lot of points on deviantART, maybe we can make some sort of deal.

If anyone wants to rip stuff from any video games that I suggest, I'll gladly pay anyone with points.

But... there is this one catch:

I can't handle high amounts of point prices, like having to pay over 300 or over 500.

If we can compromise on a much more reasonable price, I will accept it.

Would this make anyone feel better?

Or...

Would everyone rather call me a monster who's loathed and hated by everyone and can't make any good deals with anyone?

Here is a outlined, detailed list of what I want ripped:

Sprites:

Bugs Bunny's Rabbit Rampage (all ACME Items used and its hud items, the HUD itself)
Road Runner's Death Valley Rally (Tilesets and Backgrounds from all stages)
Desert Demolition (BG Rips/Tilesets from all Stages)

Sylvester and Tweety's Cagey Capers (Tilesets from all Stages)
Speedy Gonzales: Cheese Cat-astrophe (Sylvester Boss Sprites, BG Rips/Tilesets from all Stages, Enemies, Items, Fonts)
Taz: Wanted (Gallery Extras)
Looney Tunes: Double Pack (Everything from "Dizzy Driving", Road Runner from "Acme Antics", Wile E. Coyote [everything from "Acme Antics"])

Models:

Taz: Wanted (Sam Franciso HUB & Stages Wile E. West HUB & Stages, all Breakable Boxes and Stuff, Detonators, Anvil, Safe, Weight Ton, Piano, Explosives, Explosive Crates, stuff in Wile E.'s den [from Granny Canyon])
Taz Express (all Wile E. Coyote-themed stages, "Taz on the Run", "Taz in a Spin", etc., Cartoon-themed tricks, traps, props, etc.)

You can discuss Point Payment Plans through PM, or on the Note Systems over on deviantART. But I can't promise you high amounts of points. There are limitations to how much points I can give. (Not over 500, 1,000 or higher, that's for sure)

[OS-PRIME]

Can you please keep your self loathing to yourself. You realize people hate you because of the way you acted in the past. And don't you fucking dare give that autism excuse. That's not an acceptable clasue for shitty behaivour.

And about point "comissions". Points are kind of worthless. And it really depends on what you're gonna give points for. Could you maybe, please give us an outlier of what you want ripped and what we'd get payed for it?

[LooneyTunerIan]

I know, that. It's also because I'm retarded, ok?

Points aren't worthless if you're planning on saving them for deviantART Subscriptions, badge features and other useful things.

Besides, you should know what I'm going to give points for by now:

For anyone who can rip/extract any sprites, models, textures, sounds from any specific Looney Tunes games.

But if you really want me to provide an outliner, well... I'll make some lists and sections detailing what I want.

There are things in this world way more important than just petty shit on Deviantart that DA points can't buy. Even if you offered actual money we're not doing jack for you because you have no understanding of this website, you don't have any consideration towards other people's feelings on here, and you can't take criticism which is supposed to help you, not hurt you.

Go download PSound and the N64SoundTool and all the isos for those specific Looney Tunes games if you want them so badly.

[Shade]

I'd rather call you a monster who's loathed and hated by everyone and can't make any good deals with anyone.

Except nobody hates you. Why would anyone hate you over stuff you do on a sprite forum. Seriously, how silly would that be? No, you've just given pretty much everyone here a reason to not want to do anything for you. Countless requests, a generally poor attitude in general; you've shown time and time again how much you "don't like tVGR" or are "hated by everyone ever," so why do you even keep coming back?

As for your question, I doubt people will accept DA points as a means of payment. It's not worth all that much, and it's not something the majority of people would care about, I don't think. I mean, there's nothing stopping you from trying, but I don't see that working out well for you.

I don't have the right visual cord plugged in! Even if my Control Tower's been upgraded so that I can play 3D Games that much easier, I don't have the white visual plug!

And besides that: I don't take constructive criticism so well.

I may have gotten a D in Oral Communications, but I didn't learn anything about Handling Constructive Criticism.

And if that is how you see me, if you really think I am some kind of monster, then report me if you must.

Thanks a lot.  That really makes me feel a whole lot better, you know.

Those reasons are proof that everyone on this site hates me.

And look at my Reputation. a rep of -20 Points means that there's no way of redemption.

And besides... you're a site admin now. With that kind of power, you should know what to do with a user like me.

But the only reasons that I keep coming back are:

-To post Looney Card Collections that I've ripped (BY MYSELF for that matter)
-post Looney Tunes trivia alongside those collections for fun
-post comments on what sprites are missing from certain sheets or what games that may never be completely sprited or ripped.
-and to simply ask questions about certain things, NOT REQUESTS

On deviantART, you can use points to buy commissions off other artists, use them to buy/extend deviantART subscriptions, shop for stuff, or even get download permissions. I think the dA Point Currency has expanded in al ot of ways that you neglect to know about.

And just in case if anyone else thinks I'm a monster who should just be dead, here is a private message that was sent by 124scratch a week and half ago:

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Those were his words that he said in that PM.

And if everyone agrees with him, then... maybe I should go kill myself.

[Pingus!]

If this user upset you so much, and this vulgar message was sent to you, why didn't you just report it through the reporting system instead of allowing the rest of the community to see it? Honestly, it makes no sense to me, and is unfair of you to do so. And, may I make something clear, This ISN'T DeviantArt. Now, I don't mean to be rude, but I just don't see this post as permissible on your behalf really... and, as an extended warning, that user is full of shit, and since it's not true, and was a week ago, let go of it. You REALLY should've reported that, instead of writing what you wrote in the last line there. Would you mind maybe reconsidering what you write? It'll allow us to better understand your needs and maybe we can help ya out . I know this is a wall of text, but that's fine. And, a reputation label doesn't make you who you are. It's your actions and your further doings in the community that affect how you are seen here. I started off terribly, but, I submitted my own stuff and was nice, and I have been very fortunate to get to where I am today. And, I'm very proud of it. Just take a look back at what you write, as you can come off sometimes as seeking too much negative attention, and I know that's not what you mean to do .

At this point there's nothing for any of us to do or say to you.

If you want every single thing done your way. How about go on Weebly and make your own fucking website?

You do realize that's a copypasta Ian...
Look you can change your rep. Act nice, stop hating yourself, maybe learn BMS or Maxscript to write your own scripts or even help others. And remember, people dislike you becasue you keep lashing out on others and yourself and making constant requests. You can change. I know you can.

[Red Haired Bastard]

Okay, I decided to take a quick look at how much these points were worth.
I'm using a calculator from 2011, so i have no idea if point worths have gone up in that time.
but the maximum amount of points he can give is 500.

There are limitations to how much points I can give. (Not over 500, 1,000 or higher, that's for sure)

So if he does give you 500 points on deviantart for your work. You're only earning about 5 bucks.
But considering how he apparently needs more then one of these, its not likely that he'll throw all 500 points into one sprite sheet/model/sound/texture.
meaning you're probably only earning like. 2$ at most.
Yeah yeah, sounds perfectly reasonable. i dont see any issues here, do you?

[~CaMtEnDo~]

Sorry for hotlinking but someone already ripped the cutscene graphics from Bugs Bunny Birthday Blowout right here.

Sorry if I misread your first post tho, I'm really tired today.

[Pik]

Great work Cam.

As soon as I read up too "I am trained in Gorilla Warfare" I seriously lost interest... *BURPS*... I want to hire this one-man army to fuck with a predator... SHIT, now I know that a Predator truly has something to fear on this planet... No, no, no... Seriously, SUPERMAN, WATCH YO BACK! My god, this guy is THE ULTIMATE IN TOOL WARFARE... He'll swear and lie to motherfuckers to death. You know a mofo is full of shit when he has to hide behind pm'ing. I'm sorry you have to deal with this asshole, LooneyTuner.

And in all seriousness, I ain't got a problem with LooneyTuner, so not EVERYONE on this site hates him. Quit making useless assumptions and pressing your own opinions about someone like everyone has the same arrogant view as you!

[Kosheh]

oh, nice, i feel like i'm going off topic here, but ian, people aren't targeting you because you have autism, or you're "retarded"

it's because (a) you constantly request things and never submit anything in return - not even posts, and (b) you're constantly playing the victim card i can't say you're even a "professional victim" because admittedly you're not very good at it, lol. you just guilt-trip us by calling yourself a "retard" and an "autistic". (which...like 80% of the community is the latter, actually, so i'm not really sure why you're throwing that around when we've all got the sense to not do that, as we don't let a disability define who we are)
you've got this very ho-hum attitude towards everything because someone on this site owned you once, and you're acting like you'd rather crumple into a ball and die rather than learn to do anything.
i hate to air dirty laundry in public, but it also gives a little insight into your personal life, and that you're probably bribed into half the things you do IRL in exchange for little rewards - extrinsic motivation. (it also seems like you're treated like a child IRL, which is crazy because we're almost the same age. i'm older by a few months)

in the adult world, you no longer get rewards for doing little things, and instead, there's "intrinsic motivation" - when you're driven to do something out of your own sheer will in exchange for a reward that has no monetary or physical compensation - instead, now you've got bragging rights or new, additional knowledge that'll stick with you. and you feel good about it, because now you've got a valuable set of skills. just like the people here who've been ripping various sprites, sounds and textures. just like puggsoy, who writes small applications to rip even more assets from games that you couldn't do with someone else's tools.

being you're posting on here and acting like your life is depending on it, i assume you have a lot of spare time on your hands. it might be worth your time to do something productive with that time, like learning to program (hint: start with Visual Basic if you're a visual learner - or COBOL [no visuals] if you've got a real interest in the classics)
i feel like you'd have a real knack for it, and while you can't change the world with a "Hello World", it's a good start onward and upward :V

---

oh yeah "deviantart points" has to be the most gaia online thing i've heard in years. it's like going to a hotel and offering to cut a deal with the hotel staff saying you'll pay them back in commissioned art.

oh yeah. here's an idea. im not trying to be an asshole with this suggestion. honest. its pretty good
i heard shade and puggsoy were stealing this idea

you know, there's things you can do online - like google has a thing where you do surveys and they'll give you Google Play credit in return
maybe you should consider doing alot alot alot ALOT of surveys and rack up some gift card money.

everybody could use gift card credit, y'know? and there's like a 1:1 return on that in meatspace, too. just negotiate exchanges with google play, subway, burger king credit etc. you can even EXCHANGE those gift cards for gift cards you actually want (i.e. burger king -> best buy) you could be a fricken pro at this

edit: also when you try to justify why you keep asking for things, they're the goofiest reasons too ("you'll have my adoration and respect", "this community just doesn't appreciate older cartoons") I hate to be so tactless, but think to yourself for a minute: if we've all got our busy lives and projects on our plate, doing what we like out of our passion for videogames.
WHY should we drop everything and rip every asset from Looney Tunes games because The Prince Of Looney Tunes Trivia And Probably A Distant Relative of Mel Blanc has graced us with his presence and demands it? We're working on things too - though we'd probably warm up to the request if you contributed to the community by either (a) submitting your own rips [like Carpaccio does - he asks for things we never get around to, but he's ripping models all the time, so we don't get mad] or (b) post and become an influential member of the community (like...uhh...me. If I made a small request and it didn't require writing a custom tool, people would probably not have an issue looking into it)
It's just...take a step back dude. Your contribution : request post ratio is literally like 1:200.
The age-old phrase is "You scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours" - not "You're a cat, just lay there while I scratch your back for eternity"
