Haha, just mentioning that you gave me inspiration to put together a list of things to find in his system smile.gif

Talkan has been incredibly nice, easy to contact, and has been patient with me constantly bugging him on MSN daily. If you don't like Talkan... that's your choice... but don't bring your issues with him here. I put this thread up out of boredom, fun, and pride in my little amateur work of a website that I took the time to code myself... not to read anyones rants and personal attacks towards Talkan.

I'll bring my issues wherever I like thank you very much haha. I don't have issues with talkan, he's a scrub and people deserve to know what they are buying, especially if the system is over 100 cr in cost. They also deserve to find out via my sarcastic wit infused with my general contempt for social norms and etiquiette. I am the Tucker Max of lusternia! (google tucker max, you'll know what I mean)

Is Treant available for purchase yet? I get it for 25cr right?


Yes, though this technically isn't the place for such questions. tongue.gif

(Someone might say the same about Murphy and Hathrael's system, but they're too afraid of retribution. Heh.)


I certainly haven't seen anything scary from Murphy since I started having transed skills, and knights were made less insane. confused.gif No purchased system is going to be perfect for you.

ROFL Nice...

My name is Tucker Max, and I am an asshole.

I get excessively drunk at inappropriate times, disregard social norms, indulge every whim, ignore the consequences of my actions, mock idiots and posers, sleep with more women than is safe or reasonable, and just generally act like a raging dickhead.

But, I do contribute to humanity in one very important way. I share my adventures with the world.

Hmm.. guess I need a new sales tactic... Here you go Talkan! Your new spokesperson!




Morgan Webb says, "Buy Talkan's System and I'm yours!"

For some reason, I'm dubious...

I said nothing to you that you wouldn't say to me at every opportunity. That said, whenever it was that you were last about, you didn't have an impact on anything, so its only natural that I'd forget when exactly that was. Can't keep track of everyone with an ego far bigger then their ability wink.gif

And don't be dissin' Morgan Webb, she's responsible for half the people that still actually watch G4 tongue.gif

Wow. People still buy systems here. Anyway, I'll be coming out with a few releases minus my comm-lord script that will be free. Likely going to be Z-MUD first, then Mudbot LUA modules. Not going to include combat support, however, as I believe people should work on those on their own so they don't die like scrubs. Why free? Because I don't suffer in the slightest from handing out handy different displays and utilities for things. Of you're going to be in it for the non-combat features, then wait. If you're going to be in it for the combat features, I suggest you learn to make your own system and not spend money on someone elses or use a free public one.

Not nice to advertise on other people's ad threads...
Shamarah2008-07-07 21:23:06
Why are random-ass people (including people I've never even heard of, who is that above me ^) hijacking Talkan's system thread to advertise their crap? I mean, it's not like I post random advertisements for my map on other peoples' threads.

Oh wait.

Unknown2008-07-07 22:31:34
I'm mostly preaching the light of "wait for the free crap". No one should pay 100 credits for a system.
Shamarah2008-07-07 22:57:17
... except you just said you aren't going to be selling systems anyway, so it's completely irrelevant. And even if you were going to be selling systems, it's still terrible form.
Shaddus2008-07-07 23:06:59
Her socks match.. Sorry, that turns me off.

And yet it's still inappropriate to hock your stuff here.. While I think Talkan's a knob and his system is trash, you don't see me peddling my wares here.

Also you said you weren't going to offer combat support which is specifically what Talkan's system is.. so.. fail?

Considering I've already seen a few free combat systems, I don't think so. The only conceivable selling point of that system seems to be its non-combat stuff. Unless it's meant for complete idiots. Therefore all it takes to use free things with likely equal functionality and certainly more bank for your buck is copy and pasting scripts into Z-MUD. I have no mercy on people who decide that they want to try hawking stuff that's sub par for inordinate amounts of credits and I have every intention of assisting this community in graduating from "you can buy my system for credits" mentality.

Bad form is trying to sell sub-par goods to people who don't know better.

Edit- To Gwen's credit, customer support is at least promised.

Who are you exactly? If he wants to sell his system for credits because he feels it's a quality offering, that's perfectly his right. What business is it of yours to come into his censor.gif and try and undermine him in such a terrible way?

And furthermore, who are you to come "assist this community" in graduating from anything?

Welcome to capitalism. It's perfectly valid to sell a quality product that fulfills a niche, and while I'm not convinced his system qualifies as such, far be it from me or anyone else to judge that he doesn't have that right.
