honestly this thread is making no positive sense. We have all came here for one reason, and that is using click products. If we are no long talking about click products or contributing to the atmosphere of game design, then it should be deleted. I know somebody has the power to do it. Whether it be the original poster or an admin. If you original problem was solved then great. If not, then you can repost the question. There is NO reason to have to get UGLY on the internet. NO matter if one was provoked or not. If one went out IRL and told somebody that they got in an argument online over some program settings they would sound pretty da** silly.

This thread was designated for a question, yes, but if the subject changes and people are talking about it, should we ignore it? Should this thread be moved into the general discussion thread? Maybe, but if no one will do it then should we bother not even addressing or communicating back at all? Obviously no one arrived at TDC because they liked the taco dip, but like outside of TDC I'm sure everyone has there own personalities, quirks and traditions. I know, at least for myself, I would like to get to know the people I work around or inquire, but then there is a designated area for that. But is it stopping you from posting a question of your own in the Code-it Forum? No, in fact, you would have no knowledge of any of this arguing if you had never clicked on here and bothered to say what you said. As far as getting ugly on the internet, I'm afraid that is more than impossible. I fail to see how things can get ugly without physical contact. Once again, these are all words. You can choose to read them and ignore them, hell, you don't even have to hear them. And once again, none of this even had anything to do with anyone other than me and the other guy. I came on here expecting that I would be reading a post that actually added to the solution, instead one that felt like he needed to create a problem. I try my best to ignore pointless posts, but unfortunatly I am not going to ignore a direct attack on me.

We're not all over the age of 18, hell some of us are under the age of 12. Just like you would get frowned upon for tell a 12 year old "F--k You" we frown on it here; mostly because you could indeed be talking to a 12 year old. That's where the admins come in. Just like we wouldn't want you around our kids telling them "F--k You" in real life, we don't want you doing it here either. It's just like beng at someone's house. You don't follow their rules, you get asked to leave.

Well then that's where I differ from most people. I find it redundant to shelter anyone no matter how young from anything life has to offer. It's the basics of society to deny knowledge, which is absurd. The fact that swearing is considered bad language is nothing more than bullshit religious propaganda. I was once denied employment at Wal-Mart just because I swore at the guy. That was his excuse, but it had nothing to do with it. I showed up in a nice shirt and tie with dress pants, and the interviewer was some kid in a cut off shirt and tattoos all over, and this guy was a manager. The dickhead had the nerve to tell me that I was unprofessional, all because I said damn, when he couldn't even find anything in his own damn store. Swearing as bad language is nothing more than another poor excuse to not deal with a problem, and a just a way to control another person. The fact of the matter is, I don't give a damn if some 12 year old comes on here acting like a idiot, I will yell at him too. So what if some dumb kid sees "necrophilia" on some admin's signature and goes home to ask mommy what it was? The internet is a glorious wealth of information and porn and if someone has the nerve to try to shut down one website because some kid was acting like an idiot and another guy swore at him, they WILL NOT get very far. There are thousands of web forums just like this that allow younger kids that extremely lax when it comes to language. The fact that you have posted in here twice just for language is no different than a police officer attempting to arrest someone for hopscotch or flatulence.

Well, there is that, but at the same time I have been mentioning to people to just but out. I find it hilarious that all of this discussion has come out of 2 posts. You know, if everyone wasn't so busy trying to "prevent bad things from happening", this would've only come down to his initial retard post followed by my rebutal and then it would be done, end of discussion. Focus more one the bandwagon, because that's where most flame wars end up. If there is an argument between two people, let it be. Sure you've got a great opinion, but it's not your fight, it's there fight. If it's heated, stop adding fuel to their fire. You know, I wouldn't have had to post my second "SHAB GIVE WARNING" post if we didn't have 10 people going "Two head up asses" or "You made the poor moron bleed his vagina". No one gives a damn about that though, and we all end up with what we had here, two people say mean things to each other, then everyone else has to win the god damn lottery too and always one guy has to add "OMFG PWNED" or something like that. IF ANYTHING, admins should jump on trash like that more than anything. I swear to god I stab a baby every time someone seriously usues "lol" on anything other than a computer. And ROFLMAO? What the hell? After a while they cut off the MAO and left it with like Rolling on the Floor or something. Why are we rolling on the floor? Are we on fire or something? I don't get it, but no one does anything about that. But anyways, if Shab or any other admin really cared about the language, they'd put up blocks, so that every time someone typed fuck it would type "f#&!" or "banana" or something. They could change lol to "I FAILED ENGLISH" and PWNED to "I drink pinesol". I'm not 100% sure, but I wouldn't be surprised if the only reason any of us got yelled at were anything more than seniority or familiarity. Who cares if you friend acts like a nut, let's blame the new guy.

Well, then I guess I'll butt out, cause as you said, my responding only adds fuel to the fire.
But you have to understand, the only reason for all these replies are your strict unwillingness to respect clearly stated forum rules i.e behave in a manner so you won't intentionally offend people just because you are pig-headed and cover it in this glorious drape of right to self-expression.

Don't get me wrong though, I'm all for freedom of expression, but if I choose to put myself in a situation made possible by others work(in this case TDC) where I have to interact with others there, I like to have the decency to atleast respect the author's and most users' wishes on how we should behave. Because by logic, I'm in a position of gratitude before the people running this site, it works as a free service for me from which I can hugely benefit. I can't afford to put my personal wishes first and foremost if they largely differ from the majority of the community's if I intend on using this site for my personal benefit.
If I felt that I was unable to comply with these rules, I wouldn't be here, and chances are, I wouldn't be allowed to stay anyway.

With that said, I will now gracefully step aside from this topic and not disturb it any more.

jneumann1, from what ive just read your the sort of person we all dont need to see around TDC. Give me as much abuse as you wish, i dont care, but for somone new like yourself to come in like that is laughable. Maybe its not my place to say but relax or go somwhere else with your rants.

I like this guy! He is down to earth and indeed he addresses the real problem. Posts like "pwned" or other posts that belittle other members just because they are new, or made a mistake should be immediately deleted. This isn't 4chan, this is a moderated forum and it should act like one. Good call jneumann1, sorry I was a dick to you I didn't realize that your post wasn't meant as offense it was just merely how you express yourself in type. I hope you fixed your problem with the pngs. I used to have the same problem but saving the file as PNG in photoshop, and then using the animation editor in MMF and clicking "import" I was able to solve the problem. When you import it don't pick a new transparent just use whatever the default one it lists, which is usually black or white.

Something told me you were one of those guys. And see, that was my god damn point, if everyone just left us alone, let us insult each other then realize we aren't exactly enemies, then things would've been okay. For crying out loud, this has been extremely great, and I hope most of you feel freakin stupid.

But as far as my first question goes, that was my exact problem. I over thought it and figured since it said to pick a color and black was instantly selected that it would work similar to another editor I used and make every black color transparent, so I posted a color background with a color that couldn't be confused with the other colors in my png and picked that color, and sure enough it made the color transperant, but left a ring of slight blue around my figures. Once I just used a transparent background and left it alone it worked fine.

Well, I fail to see how I'm pig headed seeing as how just because I don't censor my language, I don't say anything other than insults, I've seen at least 30 different people saying all kinds of stuff that would make any mother cringe, but it's perfectly fine just because they censored the swears. I personally don't give a damn about what they say, but if the same guy telling me it's wrong is going to come out and say that I'm disruptive? Hell, I've done nothing wrong. I don't think you're a bad guy, but I think everyone is just being a tad bit hipocritical about this.

Whatever dude, if you actually read into this, I'm not exactly new. I used to use The Games Factory as a kid and I've just started up on MMF2 to make a project for my portfolio. You're the kind of person I just talked about. You just sat there and listened to me talk about nutjobs jumping on the bandwagon, and you did just that. I don't abuse, the only person I "abused" was DudeHuge, and that was only because he directly insulted me. But obviously he came out and apologized, and I apologize to him, so therefore it can't possibly be counted as ABUSE. Maybe I don't know the internet term that abuse stands for, but I know that in real life, any of the shit we said couldn't possibly count as abuse, and since neither of us went to a moderator and claimed abuse on either of us, then how the hell is this even a discussion?
