Well then...I'm actually writing another rant...everyone should now rejoice and praise um...me, yeah, sure...why not...anyway...today's topic! "Why are people so stupid?"

Why ARE people so stupid? We'll never know I suppose...but to plead my case, I will present evidence in no specific order...um...anyway...what's up with this?

Why do people appear to try and ruin others' lives? Why would someone want the password file to the Computer Science department (all they would get is the passwords to each student's CS account)...what good would it do them? After they hacked in and stole it, why would the distribute it to people in other countries? (That's what my professor said happened, she swears!!) And once people around the world now have control of every password in the University of Tennessee's Computer Science department, why would someone want to use it and erase someone's entire lab!? They don't even know the person!! And why is it that I am one of the "lucky few" who didn't get my password changed in time who got his lab deleted?! And why did I only have 2 hours to re-write the entire lab which took me 7 hours to write in the first place?! WHY!!!!!!!!???????????? Well, lucky for me, I'm a genius and I managed to get the lab done in time anyway...yay! But still...some dude I'll never meet ruined my entire night, why, why, why would he want to do that? Stupidity would be a proper explanation here...

Another thing, why do people hound game designers when they get the chance? Like say...during an unmoderated chat with designers, the questions don't stop...its impossible to get a word in edgewise...impossible...and people wonder why chats are moderated...and like say on PXO, if someone from Volition decided to join us...why do people insist on hounding him with questions?! Can't he just be there and talk like a normal person instead of sitting there saying, No, we didn't do that or we're not putting that in FreeSpace 2 or no...i don't know what that is even...or yes, no no nonon o nosdyrelyursa;nvoih ...well, you get the idea...and why is it that there's always only one person who sits there and says nothing but "haha" or "heh" or something like that...(and why is it always me?!)

Also, I've had several people (yes, more than just one...) ask me what I know about the T-V War...well, I'd like to address that question now...Go to the Tech Room, read about all three of the races...there, you are now enlightened with as much information about the T-V War as I am. Volition didn't write much on the pre-Shivan times, so I can't say much about it...I don't know if they will write more on it ever...that's they're choice...but they didn't do it...which is actually pretty good, because you can make a campaign on the T-V War and put about any damn thing in there you want because noone will be able to say that didn't happen!! And the reason for that is because they don't know what did happen and what didn't happen, so they can't realistically say that'd didn't happen...so go out and make something up...it'll work, trust me...

And another thing (no offense here Volition, of course! :), why is it that game companies must tease the game players!? Like...well...um...we'll just...um...use an example here...like...um...Volition...yeah...um...they put that thing up, "Coming Soon...Something Very Different", why must they tease us followers like this!?? We could all go along living our lives much easier NOT knowing what's up a game companies sleeves until they decide to actually unveil it...but noooo...they have to tease us and make us wait by putting up messages like said example, and make us frustrated wondering what's next, and make us cry at night knowing that...oh...wait...nevermind.... Anyway, I think its like a rule of game companies that they must first tease instead of just tell...y'know...I see it everywhere...

And what's up with people asking why their mission got a low rating on say, the DC's review thingie...well, apparently, your mission got a .5 star because it SUCKED!!! Yeah...that's right...I said it, everyone else is trying to be nice and make is sound all ok and stuff and let you down easy...well, sorry, Wolfy don't play dat game... But straight up...read your review...don't go..."DAMMIT!! I got a .5 star and WildWolf said my mission sucked!! DAMMIT!! I GIVE UP!!" NNOOOOO!!!! Don't go out and do that...the reason reviews are there is so you can IMPROVE (yes...IMPROVE, if you need a definition, email me, and I'll look it up for you...). So, here's what you should do...take said mission (like say...one of mine) and bring it up in FRED. Next, go to the review of said mission and read it over and over until you have it memorized. Then, go back to FRED with said mission already opened, and fix things according to what the review said, then...(this is the important part!) TEST YOUR MISSION!! Make sure everything works out right, if not, fix it. Then, resubmit it to where ever it needs to be resubmitted to to have it re-reviewed by whoever, and rejoice at the higher score your missions recieves...YAY!!!

Whew...that was rough...but now its over and you can go on living your life...I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did and I will actually write another one in less of a time frame than in between this and the last one...really! Any comments or blah blah, the usual, email them to ME...not anyone else... Email here.
