It's logical for people to put their inadequacies onto others, natural defense think it's called, "projection", just easier to say nobody can than I can't. Fortunately nature balances by injecting kids with enough suspicion of their elders and open minds sharp enough to recognize old fart sour graping and try for it anyway or maybe it 's that the exceptional ones take it as a challenge and dare to dream, "I can.", and every once in a while one will.
Sphinxter, please put this in perspective. Morgushong calmly, rationally, even politely explained a point of view that you didn't like. Your only reply? "Fuck you." Prodded into elaborating, where do you go next? You speculate that there must be wrong with somebody who holds such opinion. If they don't believe in you -- if they say or think anything that even vaguely
implies you aren't as totally wonderful as you want to think you are -- it must be something wrong with
them.

Ah yes, "If you don't agree with me, you're stupid. You're entitled to your opinion, as long as you enjoy being stupid. Do you like being stupid?" Spare us.
Maybe some people like some games better than others. Maybe some people have an opinion why. If somebody doesn't like your game, make a game for people who do like your game. Or make a game that'll change people's minds. Throwing around insults and fallacious rhetoric doesn't make a fun game for anybody.
The next incarnation of me will have stayed in art school and applied themselves, started programming when they were 5 instead of 30 and probably already out there automating the whole process as I type this, who's to say what they're capable of, why visit your limitations on others. Many would have said one guy could never start an os to rival Microsoft.
