READ THE GODDAMN MANUAL

Caydr · Post by **Caydr** » 10 Jul 2006, 02:41

YOU ALL PLAY AA. I ASK FOR NOTHING IN RETURN EXCEPT FOR THIS: READ THE FSKING MANUAL. READ THE WHOLE THING. READ IT. READ AND OBEY. READ THE MANUAL. IT'S ENTITLED "README.TXT" AND IS INTENDED TO BE READ. BY YOU. I MEAN, YOU, THE PERSON READING THIS PAGE, NOT YOU, THE GENERIC THIRD PARTY WHOM WHICH I AM NOT TALKING TO. I AM TALKING TO YOU. YOU AS A PERSON, AN INDIVIDUAL. READ THE GODDAMN README. READ IT. READ IT. READ IT. READ IT. READ THE README. IT IS NAMED AS SUCH BECAUSE IT IS MEANT TO BE READ. IT CONTAINS VALUABLE INFORMATION. INFORMATION INTENDED TO BE READ. IF THERE WAS A CLEARER WAY TO COMMUNICATE THE IDEA OF, 'READ THIS FILE YOU BARELY-SENTIENT FREELOADER', I WOULD GLADLY USE IT INSTEAD. IF YOU HAVE SUGGESTIONS, POST THEM. WHAT IS MORE CLEAR AN INDICATION THAT SOMETHING IS MEANT TO BE READ THAN, "READ. ME." IS THE TXT EXTENSION CONFUSING YOU? MAYBE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF READING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT? READ ME. READ THE MANUAL. READ THE FECKING MANUAL BEFORE I HAVE A CORONARY.

IN CASE YOU MISSED THIS EARLIER, I'M TALKING TO ******YOU******. YES, YOU, THE ONE READING THIS. NOT SOME OTHER PERSON, WHO CLEARLY NEEDS TO READ THE README BECAUSE THEY'RE A 'NOOB', NO, I MEAN YOU, THE OH-SO-EXPERIENCED GUY WHO KNOWS EVERYTHING ALREADY. READ IT.

SOME USEFUL TIDBITS IN THE README:
NOT TO INSTALL TO YOUR TA DIRECTORY
NOT TO SPAM THE SPRING FORUM WITH AA BUG REPORTS

read what?

Caydr · Post by **Caydr** » 10 Jul 2006, 02:46

Go to hell and bring back pizza.

Lock this, delete it, I don't care. Leave it up for a day or two first though, huh? It's something everyone needs to see once.

Read...me. Got it.

Lindir The Green · Post by **Lindir The Green** » 10 Jul 2006, 03:09

That made me want to read the readme.txt

And I don't even play AA.

what I always wanted to know, whats this AA (B) variante?

Zoombie · Post by **Zoombie** » 10 Jul 2006, 03:25

To quote Cyder: "Read the Manual"

Cabbage · Post by **Cabbage** » 10 Jul 2006, 03:40

so what exactly are you asking us to do?

SinbadEV · Post by **SinbadEV** » 10 Jul 2006, 03:41

I have now officially read you manual.

Argh · Post by **Argh** » 10 Jul 2006, 03:42

I must admit, "go to Hell and bring back pizza" is pretty good, I'll have to save that for the next idiot I am talking down to

[edit] Oh yeah... and Caydr, you've never had some random person ask you to put a "vampire, with a cape" into your mod, right? There are worse things than people who can't read manuals

Thank you.

It's high time someone said that, in that fashion.

Min3mat · Post by **Min3mat** » 10 Jul 2006, 04:49

why not discuss AA on the FUCKING SPRING BOARDS
if you want it elsewhere get a admin to lock it after each release <,<
christ.

Zoombie · Post by **Zoombie** » 10 Jul 2006, 05:02

I'd personaly prefer a vampire with a big red hat, sunglasses, a red trench coat and a really really big gun. But thats just me.

Slamoid · Post by **Slamoid** » 10 Jul 2006, 05:19

For the record: I read manuals. And if I don't, I don't ask fsking retarded questions.

Have people really installed the Spring AA to their TA directory? omg.... make somthing idiot-proof and they make a better idiot.

Charlemagne · Post by **Charlemagne** » 10 Jul 2006, 06:37

I read the readme.

I would suggest perhaps renaming it donotreadme.txt. That would most likely result in more people reading the manual.

I'm sorry, I'm colorblind... what was in the first post?

FizWizz · Post by **FizWizz** » 10 Jul 2006, 06:56

[edit]yeah, so that joke went over my head...[/edit]

Felix the Cat · Post by **Felix the Cat** » 10 Jul 2006, 07:56

I hope you realize that a) that was a joke and b) colorblind people can read the initial message just fine.

Zenka · Post by **Zenka** » 10 Jul 2006, 11:01

It doesn't matter what color you read it. Just read the readme.
I understand Caydr's frustration. People never tend to read the readme. For AA or Spring alike. Sadly, they doesn't read the forums as well (they only post in it). So you're post won't probably reach the right people.

SwiftSpear · Post by **SwiftSpear** » 10 Jul 2006, 11:03

I read the AA readme when you released V1.

I don't have time to reread stuff every time a new patch is released.
