Erik, why are my requests for images of the new weapons going ignored? I mean I'm not even getting a no....I'm getting nothing. A simple...we don't have that ready to demonstrate yet would suffice...or...we just don't want to show you that cause we just don't want to. Anything would be better than not even acknowledging my question when you answered so many in the Latest News thread.

I'm beginning to think my questions aren't welcome, and if they aren't welcome then......

I'm sure he's not ignoring your questions on purpose mate.  I imagine he will post some shots at some point in the near future.

Erik and guys are probably busy. I'm sure they'll post more info/pics in a week or two.

I will not be drawn into a flame war with you Kayoz, but that last image is vile.  It speaks of a callous spirit within and I pity you for it.  The image by itself can be a powerful witness to the plight of the helpless and inspire others to do more for those that are suffering from disease, starvation, and the ravages of war.  However, when you juxtapose that image with your statement below it........it becomes something else.....something that instead seems to revel at that child's suffering.

Stop the personal attacks - you know nothing about me.

Revel in the child's suffering? What drugs are you on? You have a pretty sick mind, if that's what you see.

If the dev's answered every question that they were asked all they would have is a forum full of answers and no game. You only aksed once on the 27th as far as i can see and they aren't answering every question so its prob not worth its own thread to rage about why they aren't answering.

Simulation - it is indeed a disgusting interpretation of that image, but don't forget to use the handy green button if you don't want to walk into the temptation of starting a flame war. Erik I'm sure will intervene at some point and address the image posted.

Webbco is correct, Simulation, we've all been there and Kayoz has the biggest collection of green buttons

And at this point, it seems I should be glad I've already done so. The way you guys are talking there is something I don't want to see posted...and the green button saved me from it.

I have never been tempted before to ignore someone... we have such a collection of neat people on this forum, I keep hoping that will change some of what I see here. But if this kind of stuff keeps happening, I can foresee using the green button for the first time in my life...
I only wish I knew why someone would want to be so provocative...

You have missed nothing Shark... it is a sorrowful image that no one needed.

Hey Simulation... if it is any consolation, I have sent Erik one or two PMs that did not get answered a long time ago. They are just busy... I really think that despite the awesome number of games produced, Matrix Games is really kind of a Ma and Pa operation... very small number of people running the show...

I think they are just very busy. I get the impression that Erik spreads his time on different projects by spending a couple of days here, then a couple of days somewhere else and so on. That's why we get these gaps and suddenly he stops answering us. When he returns a few days later from answering questions on another forum, our original questions are already buried.

I think Erik needs a PA!

There should be more than one forum moderator. The post has been reported, and that should not take more than 24h to handle.

Each forum should have its own moderator (or multiples), and all moderators should receive "reported" posts.

Listen... I am surprised you and a couple of others have not filled out applications for employment...
I love what I do right now, but when I was a youngling, this would have been a cool job...

I agree that in some cases forum moderation should react bit quicker. Still, be sure they do react, even if it takes a bit.

Until then green button is really helpful against individuals who behave far beyond what can be seen as only a bit slow and clumsy when
it comes to social interaction...

Interesting how you classify anything you don't like as "trolling". Anything you disagree with, is immediately classified as trolling. You have a love-fest with Data et al, and choose to try to intimidate, bully and otherwise enforce silence of anyone whose statements you don't like or simply disagree with.

All the while, you're happy with personal attacks and personal insults. Umm... ya, right.

Sounds more to me like an attempt at cyber-bullying.

ps: Was posting your photo on the forum some sort of romantic outreach to me? Sorry, but I don't swing that way.

Might I ask our resident genius TWO simple questions:

1. Was I ever ASKED to remove the picture?

2. Was I subjected to personal abusive attacks?

Since you're so observant, perhaps you can answer those two simple questions?

Kayoz, please may you remove the picture? It is being interpreted as offensive and inappropriate by a significant number of people here. Thanks

Hi Simulation01,

It is nothing personal.

1. I am very busy
2. I am also unfortunately dealing with a series of personal crises lately
3. I am waiting for a new build from Elliot with some of the additional art integrated before we post more screenshots
4. Reporting posts or posting questions over the weekend means that it's very likely going to be Monday before you get an answer.

Regards,

- Erik

Thanks for the response Erik. I personally just thought that weapons was an area we hadn't seen any visual news on so.....

I hope that your personal crises are healed...not for your work, but for you.

I was probably too forward with this thread anyway, but I've been a little frustrated lately and I became impatient.

Also, I tip my proverbial hat to those that shared constructive responses in this thread.

Erik, doesn´t complying with your request at least require the person in question to understand the term
"reasonable civility and taste"? Remembering the content of post #5 in this thread does in no way suggest
the presence of this understanding.

I am sick and tired of reading all this disastrous and inflammatory posts about poor Kayoz fellow. Have any of you guys tried to understand him? tried to appreciate his clever posts about the game's and actually the world's shortcomings... NO! ....DO all of you here require others to talk to you nicely in order to reply nicely? Don't you know that we have to keep together... we have to shake hands, hug and kiss (brotherly way, not the french way)... I mean... you'r all so mean. I am extrmeley disappointed in all of you there.

... green buttons, ignoring the poor fellow. That's not the way civilised people of the ugly 21st century should behave! We all have different opinions, norms and values...own beliefs. Do not be ignorant. Do not judge the guy just because he acts like a jerk. Try to aks him about how his day went, or if he finally managed to catch a lass or two... I mean I've read all his posts and whinings. Don't you understand? He only asks for all the troll messages and posters to go away. That's a decent thing to ask. He even uses that cute anti-troll spray that everyone hates so much.

Remember! Not all of us are priveledged enough to have a decent character. I remember back at achool .... I was in a so-called popular group of guys and we had this really, really lame nerd, this poor guy ...we were so mean to him ... and now he is very rich and I wish I was his friend back then so that I could hug him now... I don't know why I wrote that one...

Peace guys... release the true hippies hiding inside you all. Love everything and everyone. Someone posts something rude... HUG him! Hug him..he'll join you sooner or later. I think I am going to go hug my boss now and aks him why he wants to fire me....
