Xebra: Calling someone's work shitty like that is crossing the line almost anywhere, not merely a flippant statement of opinion. JXQ was only responding in kind, he would not have said any of that otherwise. Also, you shouldn't continue saying he's copied your run - that's being too possessive considering that he has not literally copied your input. Just rest assured that somebody will eventually obsolete his run if it's really suboptimal.
And yeah, it's only a game.
you picked up a run from an author with demanding standards...
I didn't pick this run up from you. I'm doing my own TAS for Sonic the Hedgehog, not Xebra's Continuation of Sonic the Hedgehog.
...and have proven unwilling to conform to those standards on levels that require you to come up with your own strategy.
Correct, I'm not conforming to your standards, because I have my own and I will conform to them instead. I can't say I'm sorry that they don't match yours; that's just the way it is. If you think it's lame, then that's your opinion - just like the slow walking, just like the debate over game clock vs. real clock - but it won't change the outcome of this run. If that hasn't been your goal, then I don't understand what you hope to accomplish by talking about me so disrespectfully. I hoped to accomplish civility with you, but I feel it's impossible, so now my new goal was to just make you go away or at least be quiet. Unfortunately, that didn't work either. Thus, my goal is to try and be a positive person about this from here on out. I admit that I got angry in my last few posts, and I'm not trying to justify it, but I did what I did and I stand behind it, as I always do with everything I say. The easiest way I see keeping myself positive and enjoying what I do here is to do what everyone else seems to do when you talk - ignore it. So I'm now leaving it to you to continue to say whatever you wish without reply from me. Now's your chance; enjoy.
<Swordless> Go hug a tree, you vegetarian (I bet you really are one)
Its kind of sad how you guys are arguing about something that 90 percent of the people watching this movie won't even notice (maybe more). Since these runs are made for entertainment this is a significant factor. Also having a sonic 1 run submitted and not be perfect (no movie on this site is perfect anyway) is better than not having one at all. After seeing xebras attitude in this topic it is no wonder he got banned from soniccenter. If he keeps this up he might be banned from this site too.

He was not responding in kind. I was merely critical and blunt about it; he was needlessly abusive, and allowed anger to cloud his remarks.

I hoped to accomplish nothing since I never did such a thing. That's been part of your bag of tricks in this conversation, not mine. I insulted the run, you instulted the man.

You admit you were angry, yet you stand behind it and admit no wrongdoing. And even when you think you are magnanimously gaining some sort of moral high ground, as if clever words today could excuse your atrocious behavior yesterday, you just can't resist leaving with a personal jab or two. Bravo.

I enjoy how you think you are both clever and knowledgeable, when you are neither. For your information, for speaking out against an abusive moderator, I was banned by that selfsame moderator. The administrator of TSC than unbanned me and temporarily revoked that moderator's privileges. I then left TSC, voluntarily and out of disgust, when that moderator's privileges were reinstated.
I've since mellowed out and decided to avoid confrontation with that moderator altogether by using a different nickname and not participating in the forums there. Either way, the admin knows of both of my handles (xebra and Ghost), and neither of them is banned. The account xebra just hasn't been in use for something like a year and a half. I still periodically update Ghost's times when I get the urge to play on a console and duplicate some amazing trick from a TAS.

when i think this topic can't get more hilarious it does
it looks very funny when xebra is pwning everone here cause he can prove he has more knowledge than everyone else at this game regardless of what everyone says (i know this from experience as he shared me some strats when i was playing to make a sonic 1 and 2 run and a sonic 3 competion mode run) but i gave up on them cause i have more interest in Phantasy Star Online for GC(RPG). what makes Xebra more funny is he has apparently pwned the god of gods SprintGod quite some time ago everyone at Sonic Center who trys to pwn him phail miserably. Rusty and FoxLuc come to mind
Chao, I could've sworn you were speaking out against me just one page earlier. Thanks for the change of heart, I guess. Though, I don't recall Sprint and I ever competing at TSC, so I'm not really sure how much I owned him. FoxLuc, on the other hand, did get beaten, but he was a cheater anyways. And Rusty ... well, he no doubt has his panties in a wad over a seemingly impossible time I submitted a few days ago. I'm interested to see how long he lets it stand.
yeah, a talented guy, talking so rudely and mindless, is really sad.. dont you think?
if you are here to show 'how much you own anyone', please dont post anything.. unhappy, you can send some pms to yourself.. when you learn how to use the knowledge for something good, then we will be interested by your posts^^
