UGH!!!!!! ***ING BLIZZARD!!!!!!!!
:poo:! I've already made a map with it... Oh, it's the worst thing Blizzard had made, this 1.13b....
If you ahte Blizzard so much, you should just stop playing Starcraft if you are so tormented. Or even better, all of their games. It's their technology we happen to be using.

I took the time to carefully read everything that ihatett has written. His arguments are largely centered around his irritation that his replays are/could be screwed up. He repeatedly said last night that it was illegal to mess with the game's funcionality with the whole garbage about "purchasing the license to use Blizzard's software." If there was a threat in DK's work, it's good he found it instead of someone else who would be happy to keep it a secret and screw up everyone on B.net. If there was no threat, then the very large UMS fanbase would have a beautiful new tool to work with. He says it's not illegal to make a wide ramp, but according to his own definitions, those who do are abusing the software and their license to use it. In reality his only menstrual cramp is centered on the fact that because Blizzard feared more of a problem with this than with other glitches and exploits, they patched it, messing up each little girl's replays.
DK wasn't looking for another patch. He wasn't seeking to incorporate viruses into his maps. He wanted to expand the uses of staredit, and I for one applaud him for his efforts. Marie Curie and her husband died young because of all their experiments on radium. They discovered how to isolate it, and other people have suffered radiation burns due to exposure to pure radium. But their motives were for the benefit of mankind, and thakns to them, we have radiation therapy to reduce the number of cancer deaths. What if they'd listened to the ihatetts of the day? "Stop meddling with God's creations. You don't have a license to do whatever you want." They would never have found something so beneficial to mankind as a whole. DK was looking for something beneficial. I don't know if it really would have caused damage, but thank goodness he has the guts to try to seek to improve the wonderful world of Starcraft, despite the criticism of some ninnies. If your little replays got radiation burned, don't hate DK fir his work. He's only trying to improve things for those who like to PLAY Starcraft, not just watch themselves pull off a zealot blitz.
And ouch, someone called me a newb. I think I'll slit my wrists.
Amen to that. And ohh,wow, someone called you a newb. I'd prefer the pounding of straight vodka. But that's just me. Me and my newbsih ways, thinking I can be insulted by people I don't know or will ever encounter.
