Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Right click and Save As / Save Link As.

I don't fully understand how the anon pfp generator works, or how you originally designed your images, but it looks like the files are SVGs containing various geometric shapes on top of a transparent background, and to create an avatar those shapes get filled in with a random colour. The SVGs stored on the server are formed of white shapes, so they're invisible on a white webpage.

Thank you for your suggestions. I have considered them at length, and have concluded that most of the proposed actions fail to correct the wrongdoing that has occurred. In other words, they are insufficient. I'll explain why.

A community forum is a town square in which ideas are exchanged and examined through discussion and debate. The ultimate objective is Truth, which allows mankind to chart a course through the unknown. To find truth, we must have constructive dialogue. To engage in constructive dialogue, we must have order. A forum moderator, by maintaining order, ultimately guides people towards truth, and truth towards people. As a direct consequence, any action which disrupts this order drives mankind away from truth.

Without truth there is chaos. The author of this thread, by disrupting the rules-based order and thus inciting chaos, shows himself to be an enemy of truth, and an enemy of truth is an enemy to mankind. In spite of this, and having just condemned the perpetrator in the strongest possible terms, why do I still believe that neither death nor exile is a sufficient course of action?

They are insufficient because they are incomplete, and they are incomplete because they only prevent further disorder. Silencing the author does not destroy the spirit of chaos born from his thread. This spirit will not dissipate unprompted; it must be uprooted and cast away.

How, then, do we undo the sin and destroy the spirit of chaos? The answer is simple: if without truth there is chaos, then the antidote to chaos is truth. We arrive at truth through discourse, and there is one environment in this forum which stimulates and rewards discourse like no other. One activity in particular unifies its participants in a singular goal to seize order from the jaws of chaos, to separate truth from mistruth, and to eliminate the darkness of the unknown.

The sin must be undone by the sinner. The solution shall be his act of redemption. Let it be so:

Probably.

Aight here's what we'll do. I'm torn between doing my job and meming around in a quiet forum, so I'm opening the floor to community suggestions.

What does this criminal deserve?

Ok well if you’re talking about a direct port of EE with no fancy extras then idk why you proposed it in this thread, which was about Satanya passing development of EE! to someone else. I wrote all that stuff for no reason //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/sad

#16 Re: Game Discussion » Everybody edits is not being developed by anybody » 2023-09-17 18:45:49

^ It seems you’re arguing that EE isn’t complicated, so EE 2.0 shouldn’t be complicated, therefore a team like yours could do it much quicker than the current team, because the current team isn’t doing anything.

I think many of the arguments you made could be applied to your claims. Should I have faith that your attempt would be any different to the several previous community-led attempts? What will you do differently? How will you succeed when others failed? How will you create a commercially viable game with long-term continued development? What features can you create in 2 months of part-time work that will make your game popular?

I promise that me and a couple of my friends (who are employed programmers and computer science graduates) can deliver a game in the following months (certainly this year), that is compatible with EE's former maps.

It sounds like another EE clone, at least to start with. You’ve said less about it than Satanya has said about EE!, and yet you want Satanya to give you the domain and rights to EE’s IP. That’s absurd, so I don’t think you should be accusing others of making empty promises.

But I don’t think anything’s stopping you from trying, or at least starting. IIRC one of the remakes even has monetisation and Anna hasn’t done anything about it. I’m not sure a remake that’s backwards-compatible with the original game is the right foundation for a successor, but if you’re confident about your idea then go for it. I think you’d find out it’s not easy to make something new, and we need something new.

This post by Satanya lists some potential EE! features that would take longer to develop. Their last community update doesn’t ask us to have faith, but I have faith simply because there’s been significant amounts of money spent on development so far. I don’t think it matters whether the developers are part of the “community”, and I don’t think a group of volunteers would be an upgrade over the current team.

As I said, my team could make a EE HTML5 game in a couple of months.

People say this sort of thing as if cloning/porting EE is all the current team is doing. Sure you can copy EE fairly quickly, especially since we have the source code and assets, but all you’d end up with is EE, and EE is dead. They’re making EE 2.0, and you can’t do that in a few months’ worth of evenings and weekends.

not toxic at all. u can’t just call everyone toxic lmao, grow up

I said the post was toxic, not the poster. “Rude” is probably more appropriate; I think toxicity may require malicious intent and I can’t ascribe that here.

My point is staff have said comments like this are unwelcome, can have and have had real impacts on progress. In the absence of any info suggesting EE! development has stopped, it’s sensible to assume it’s still going, in which case accusing Satanya of doing nothing, lying, not caring about the game, and being a bad owner, is bad for morale at best. The aim of the thread seems to be to change owners yet again, and surely we’ve learned how ineffective that is at producing results.

EDIT: The poor man is not wondering what happened. The poor man believes he knows what happened and wants something else to happen instead.

Whenever I see one of these threads my eyes roll so hard I can check out my own brain. This kind of toxic negativity towards staff is partly why EE had so many owners. Congrats, you’re part of the problem.

In any case, I’m pretty sure they’d announce it if they abandoned development. There might be a post somewhere stating that.

#25 Re: Game Discussion » Not much unlike EE, EE! has died » 2023-08-02 14:40:26

Presumably it would work as a standalone program and therefore released on Steam / itch.io / etc. as well as being playable through a browser.

There's hundreds of ex-EE players who could be notified of EE!'s release, creating good Day 1 activity that would increase retention. A free Steam release with hundreds of immediate downloads might bump the game up the charts enough to attract brand new players. If that snowballs, you might not need to buy ads.

Word of mouth can also be effective.
