ELORAAM

[Padfoote]

About 'awkward legal position'... As developer, I would say that Elo should get her 1st cup of coffee before posting anything... I have hard time to get my head around legal position of any mod. Mostly cause, most mods do live around similar ideas. For example, ic2 was the 1st mod that introduced metal doubling mechanics. Now, we have mekanism with 5x time metal output. Should team behind ic2 sue mekanism? Sounds stupid, right? Forge multipart should stop existing cause Elo released a mod back in 1.2.5 (dunno when her multiparts showed up), and was not updated for longer period of time? Should Tubes! stop existing? (hell, it's open source) When couple of devs will gather around some kind of framework (yeah, minecraft + forge is a framework) variations of the same idea will spawn all over the place. Trying to grab toys from other people just cause someone made something some time ago is just pure madness.
And now, Elo is saying that RP3 will have an API... Really? RP was written in Java, without any natives. How hard is to just look inside what your vm is doing under te hood? Well, not that hard. Forge is a good example. Just wrapping around that madness is hard. Just saying...

The mod she's referring to is most likely ProjRed due to it appearing very similar (note, I don't use either mod, so I can't say for sure). I highly doubt she's talking about similar concepts, but rather very similar clones.

To conclude, seems that Elo is becoming new FlowerChild.

This bit I strongly disagree with. I've talked with FC several times. He's a nice guy with a set vision for his mod, and doesn't like attempts to mess with it. Bit grumpy at times, but who isn't? I've been in both communities during the various bits of drama involving FC and his mod (I'm not going further into that, since it does not in anyway apply to this thread), and he is nothing like Eloraam. His actions are nothing like hers. And I really don't think bringing up drama with other devs adds anything to this thread other than to cause it to devolve further.

So in other words, he acts like Reika?
Sounds like a sensible person.

Ooh flowers. Reminds me of Botania

@midi_sec for the love of [FAVORITE DEITY HERE], don't pretend like you are the one being victimized here. The community as a whole, yes, I am not diverting blame off of myself, everyone is to blame, has blown this entirely out of proportion. Neither one of us is blameless.

My favorite Deity is Soda and Chips

Like Reika. But less black. And a little bit sassier.

Less black. More sassy. Those words don't go together.

 

[Not_Steve]

Reika gives off the vibe of a sassy black woman from new York. FC is more like a smart guy with a really mean and dumb boss. Every once in a while he angrily lashes out but besides that he's pretty cool.

 

[Fredned101]

Felt this was necessary somehow.

Um, you're REALLY blowing this out of proportion.

ps Is it bad that I respect FC like I do @IguanaMan and @joshie ?

Nope. I have a high level of respect for FC.

Eh, I am on the fence. I was not in the community at the time the FC drama happened since I was taking a break from minecraft, so I never really understood 100% what happened besides the IRC logs, and even then the PAINS section was removed from technic forums so I have trouble finding them.
But Elo never explicitly mentioned that she would sue, Only stating hat the creators of such mods are in a strange legal position. Everything else is completely made of assumptions by members of the community.

QFT. You know what they say about assumptions.

Also, I much prefer Dr. Pepper if we're talking popular soft drinks. If its just caffeine we're going for, I'll take coffee over anything but the strongest energy drink any day of the week. Of course, nothing, no energy shot, no other brand/type of coffee, no tea, nor anything else can best the glory that is Valhalla Java. I usually avoid organic crap like the plague it is, but that stuff's incredible...and so bloody powerful that even I'm leery of drinking more than a cup of it a day. Mostly because every standard cup of it has over half a gram of caffeine, and my cups are at least 50% larger because I can't be arsed to use a proper coffee cup.

I have a medically diagnosed Caffeine Addiction, so I regularly drink a lot each day. Although I think that Soda tastes better than Coffee.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING!

My teachers say that I talk too much. Then I point out that they lecture for hours in class each day. That usually shuts them up.

You should see how much I talk IRL, these guys are nothing compared to that! XD

As for the Elofoot Drama: No. As far as we know she is in no way close to taking any action. If anything it'd just be a nice letter and some cookies, Elo is not insane enough to sue- which takes money- someone over a mod- That doesn't generate ANY revenue!

I am just at a loss of words over all of this stupidity! Elo should just come on here and smite the parse of anyone here who even UTTERS that L word.

Cheers!

My normal class is this:
Me: 'I know this already.'
Me: *snore*
Teacher: ..and could trajing read our next chapter in the textbook?
Me (Thinking): Shit.
Me: *Glances at next person's book*
Me: *Starts reading the correct chapter*
Teacher: *wide eyes*
Me (Thinking): Nice try, lady.
