Apparently, theres some great stuff coming around with Starcraft: Ghost. I'm actually considering to buy it, they did a far better job then what it was before. Chris has been watching it all day, so its only fair that I dedicate this news post for him wink.gif


Anyhow, I'm not going to pretend to do coverage for Starcraft: Ghost, because we never have, and likely never will (no map making functions). So instead of wasting my time which needs to be focused upon calculus right now, I decided to hook you up with SClegacy's Ghost coverage. Its far better.

See the coverage at Sclegacy.com

We got SC ghost on our forums to, which happen to be those of SClegacy.

Look, if you're going to diss someone publicly, you might as well keep the comment for yourself, or at least point out why "Entropy sucks"... -.-

The game will be out in a year... Don't worry they will update the graphics a bunch by then.

Wow. Do you know how involved he is with SC? He is like God. I dont even know what to say. Show me ONE post of his that sucked. Please, im dead serious, find ONE.

I could say so many things about you, but I dont alright? So just be quiet. If all your gonna do in your post is dis someone, dont post. I dont like people like you on SEN. This is the second time I encountered you, and both times you said something idiotic.

Well back on topic, Ghost looks much better. What a comeback, I thought it was going to suck, then out of nowhere, WHAM! Lol, it was just like that too, you never heard or saw anything, and they come out with all this stuff. It was supposed to come out like 2 years ago, but they completely remodeled it, it looks better, basically same graphics touched up, and they made the gameplay better it seems. Im going to look at the Trailer now...

What does seem to suck, though, is that they don't innovate... Or at least from what we can see.

It's all copied from Halo 2, Splinter Cell, and other games... That's kinda deceiving.

All his posts tend to be about melee and how we should honor other random sites. Or at least some of his recent ones were. Im not bashing him, just what he does. IF other sites are so great, then they dont need to be spammed in our current news. They can get members the way evry other forum does, word of mouth or google. They don't need to advertise here.

I didnt really have enough time to ellaborate why i disliked entop's news posts, but if i did, that would be spamming, which is against the rules. Im not flaming him, just that he cant find good news to post and should try harder. MapDor*.com will do fine without us, and I really don't care about them. I come to staredit.net when BF is going slow or when I'm at school becuase interesting stuff happens here. When stupid boring stuff that nobody really cares about like /whois Entropy ,New Section Forum: Melee Map Making,ESGL-Map Contest ,Map Makers make it Big! ,MapDori.com, and MapMakers@WCG come into the main page, I simply shake my head in disaproval and move on to something else.

Then people like you, post interesting stuff like Bad boys bad boys..., Map Trigger Viewer ,SCMdraft prerelease 8 , op sen ,SCMdraft Prerelease #6 , make me want to stay and look at the forums and download maps and programs. Entropy seems to want melee and convert a UMS site into a Melee site, in which there is no real skill in making. UMS requires you to think about what you are doing before you make a map, not just slap some isometric boxes to gether, make it symmetrical, glue on a stupid name and be praised for it. I dislike melee and I always will. Heck, I dont even play SSBM becuase even it is boring. The original was and is still better. Just becuase it has sooper good graphics or has the name "melee" slapped on doesn't make it good or interesting. Other people can think otherwise and talk about it in their subforum, but don't shove it in our faces on the main page.

But you may say "Trickznstuff.net is back! is just spammy post too! Well, I actually got some good info from there once, and Beer_KeG doesn't contiuously do that. Every one of Entropies posts are spam and don't really help anyone at all. Every last one of them ( I put them all in my post) don't add to the quality of this site.

Think I'm Wrong? Tell me why and I'll fix your point of view.

/whois Entropy - Told us about this new valuable addition to the community. Told us a lot about himself, and what he does and why he's here. I'm sure after re-reading this post yourself, some opinions might change.

New Section Forum: Melee Map Making - Told us about the new section to SEN, melee map making. Pretty informational, had suggestions from members etc..


The other ones didn't appeal to me because melee is not my style of gaming. Obviousley it's not yours either. That's no reason to bash Entropy with your biased opinions. Lot's of other members are interested. One rebel won't make a difference, just an annoyance.

...But I am interested in new additions to SEN. Which is why those two topics up there were interesting. The other news posts were about Melee...things...which I didn't get to into. So, yeah.

You're really burning bridges when you insult people/places/things that other people enjoy. Good luck? dry.gif

I have made news posts like Happy Mothers Day, Slow news week, Omega Intertainment Returns! and so on. The fact is, not every news post you will like. Just ignore it and move on. I don't like the stuff with touraments on sclegacy and some other sites, but I don't say anything. Because I know, I may not like it, but theres obviously someone out there who does.

I'd still like to remind you that Staredit.net isn't only a forum. It's a complete website integrated with a forum. That's extremly different: Blizzforums is dedicated to be only a forum; SC:Legacy's forums.
Point #2, you'll be happy to know SEN was known innitially because the communities's biggest websites (SC:Legacy, sc.org, mainly) "spammed" the oppening of a new map making website on their respective site. SEN isn't better or worst than MapDori.

You don't care. Good. Why do you complain about it, then? Just ignore it.

You'll be happy I don't give a flying censored.gif about these news posts either. I'm not a UMS map maker, and I could hardly care about a new SCMdraft version comming out at all. And I don't say Yoshi sucks for that matter, you know. I ignore and move on to the next news post. A new (or not) melee site is oppened? Kudos. I luv it. That's how it is.

I'll refrain from flamming you on that. You're capricious, selfish and annoying. Entropy was hired for the ONE and ONLY reason that he was a heck of a melee dude (and a general-StarCraft expert overall). NO WONDER he posts about melee map making, it's his goddamn job!! Mapping is mapping: Heck if it's melee or UMS... He has his place in this community.

Look who's talking... I think we get the picture about the fact that you're totally in love with Use Map Setting map making, okay? No need to hate everything else while you're at it! Respect other people's oppinions, for Christ's sake...

You can tell us why you think it's easy there, since that's basically what the topic is about there. There aren't many map making only sites around and Yoshi was kind enough to add a melee forum here. This site may have started UMS only but it's expanding, nobodys trying to convert ums makers to melee (we can't, it takes a lot of experience in melee to make). A lot of the members in the melee forum aren't from ums, they've come here from other sites that we're mostly gaming, and not so much map making.

We're not converting the site into Melee. We're simply adding it to our definition to Map Making. Ever since we got Melee here, is UMS all of a sudden in decline? No.

There ARE some UMS map makers giving melee a try. I fully encourage that, because it actually works both ways. Meleer's will give UMS a try too, prehaps. It's like "trading".

The entire point of being called "Staredit Network" is that we have a variety of map making types for everyone to have fun and try. I only started with UMS, because its what I liked at the time, and it was the most underrated as well. Some of the best UMSers would be scattered all over the SC community, because no one had one really super website for UMSing only. We are expanding our reaches to Melee, and hopefully Modding too due to demand as of late.

Carlsagen, Please read the below. I am not being biased at all. I am trying to make you realize that we should stick together, if you dont like melee, play UMS, just dont argue with melee players. Saying "AHH, Melee are teh N00bs! Isometrical blobs and a start location!!2112"
Be resonable, and also, go to the link psychotemplar posted.

Maybe they are about melee because, like chris said, its his JOB.

Why can't we have news about melee? hahaha, "Spammed"? In no way is melee news spammed in SEN.

Of course they will, they are the biggest mapmaking site. Ever.

No skill? All aspects of SC take skill.

What does this have to do with Super Smash Brothers Melee? That is NOTHING like Starcraft melee AT ALL.

They definately add the quality, by adding melee to this site, more aspects of SC, attracts more people.

This was supposed to be thread about Starcraft: Ghost being covered at E3. carlsagan43 turned it into a diatribe about Entropy, melee mapping, and MapDori.com, among a great many things; shortly afterwards, he got owned by Yenku and Chris. Kekeke...

Back on topic: I checked SCLegacy's coverage on Ghost, as well as Blizzard's official Ghost site. Nice. happy.gif
