Best Forum Moment?

What has been your best moment or experience on this forum so far?

when noel and kinder ruined several forums

When Cheat actually picked me up to help develop Sep7agon. I thought that my ideas would be discarded, like it happens all the time. Somehow, people don't trust you when you offer to help them.

Kinda like how I tried to bring the supporter nameplate to light only to just backfire entirely?

No.

Well, if it feels like that to you then fine. You wanted design critiques and you got them; cold, honest and realistic ones. What happened to me many times was just a silent shrug and being dismissed as a loser. When I am dealing with my work, I am haunted by the idea to do the best I can. (And if I don't, it haunts me) So, I expect the same out of other people.

Ooh, how did that happen?

No.

Well I haven't got any feedback about the current one. That is unless you're happy with it?

Probs when they brought me into the indoctrination chamber, adorned with golden ancient and mystical artifacts as well as the 13 crystal skulls, to be initiated where Cheat placed the scepter of illumination on my head which activated the all seeing eye and revealed the cosmological secrets of the univer. .  ah.  I shouldn't say anymore.

When I got banned and still made threads

Why would that happen? Your designs are awesome. In fact, I actually do like the upside down sep7 logo hence I used it when I made the first supporter nameplate, I was trying to keep it Sep7 themed. I didn't think you'd consider it as "badly designed" to be honest, when in reality I was trying to keep things simple.

Instead I ended up using a heart so far for the design, and while Cheat is happy with it, in reality I don't like it because it reminds me too much of valentines day.

I guess with too much criticism it's kinda difficult to go wild hence I haven't bothered trying something that's completely left field from the site.

Most probably when I inspired this forum to use stockphotos, and threads were spawning like crazy!

Well, I don't think the same. I think they are flawed, full of mistakes, sluggish and fail in some manners that they shouldn't. They are not entirely bad, but they are still below mediocre. I am never happy with my work, never will.

Your designs are awesome.

this is your new best forum moment

What specific flaws do you think of?
I'm curious about you.

You gotta admit it was pretty fucking hilarious in retrospect though.

The Pokemon Tournament.

I would say that I am the strictest critic. I have expectations, and if I don't meet them then there's nothing for me; I would be worthless and purposeless. If I am seeking to improve into something, and do something then I should do it the best I can. If I fail to deliver that then it means I failed, maybe a little or completely screwed up, but it still means that I have failed.

Maybe I am not happy with it, but people are, and when you deal with websites, I do like to think them as the place you want to always hang out at. If the place doesn't welcome you, if that place isn't about you and your circles then it's not a place made for you; but instead it's a place made by someone else, trying to impose onto you what you like.

Many web designers fail to understand that, and I even did that a couple of times (I don't feel like pulling up some Skype logs and early concepts of Sep7agon's v2, but it's there) so it's quite a hard line between what is right, what is perceived right by the user and the designer and what is actually possible to make both sides happy.

I'll bring up Bungie.net because they are a good example; the reason we are here is that because they tried to impose what they believed it is right. No amount of knowledge, and experience will ever tell you what actually a community wants but to actually ask it, gets its feedback and work with that. Full transparency between the development and the end user is what helps to build something successful.

So, when I design, it's not just about me, it's about someone else, it's about making something out of nothing or some existing material into something fresh that will be loved by those who wanted it, but didn't know how it could get better over time, how things can move on while improving and not getting worse.

Well, everyone is their own worst critic at the end of the day.

When Camnator ripped Charlie a new arsehole.

I'll have to admit I wish I had done that instead of Camnator. I just didn't think of it.

Hilarious that proboards administration is tyrannical and incompetent.
