Report RSS Contribution to ModDB - postmortem

Posted by on

So what I did, what contributed, to ModDB so far?

1) posted ridiculous & late reviews for commercial games that aren't read by anybody, or at least won't be read by original developpers of the game, and gave them 10/10 seemingly for nothing

2) copied game features and features' articles from the official game sites, and added them to ModDB

3) put up for download wallpapers that can be downloaded from these official websites

4) wasted the precious ModDB server space for useless downloads, such as demos, full versions and source code packs, that can be downloaded from other sites

5) spammed some useless pics of Assassin's Creed I, probably that's why the activity level is so high = completely unjust

6) upped everybody's comments on almost every game/mod/group page w/o any valid reasons and w/o any explanation (except the comments of people supporting torrents or throwing vulgar words)

7) bothered poor game authors to upload some screenshots to the unauthorised games

8) added somebody else's mods, not being my work at all

9) added some poor mods that mainly consist of somebody else's models, somebody's coding solutions, and all I ever added to them are the poorest and worst examples of copy & paste work

10) wasted others' time for reading useless blogposts, forum posts, and features of "own" made mods

11) overloaded games' galleries with senseless additional screenshots

12) added games that aren't moddable at all (completely pointless)

13) was a dick to friends creating mods, and didn't help them as much as they would like to

14) promised some big projects (such as a tiberian universe mod for Savage 2) and never even thought of actual realisation of them, or at least not truly started them

15) wasted ModDB serverspace for videos, such as game trailers, that can be watched on YouTube w/o any problems

16) wrote disgustingly poor newsposts, and didn't care to check the private only option to avoid bothering ModDB admins with worthless articles being shown in the admin/updates panel

17) put up some shabbily made addons separately that take very small amount of space (less than 1MB) when they could be put all together

18) created CPU-/browser- consuming blogposts overflowing in valueless YT music videos

19) messaged ModDB admins (chiefly INtense!) to add some meaningless whimsical, petty and silly updated/improvements to ModDB

20) registered an account that contributed only cluelessly negative and invalid values and things of no use at all, and that could be easily done without.

You helped get me into modding, without you, I would have been lost in this PC gaming thing.

If you're not happy with what you're doing, change your ways :)
But keep yourself here in the ModDB community. It's great having you here.
You've been a good friend to many people :D

Thanks guys.

Still, I did very little here... or rather, nothing valuable at all.

Except helping people, i.e. perhaps the help itself has some sense (especially helping poor people).

The rest, and especially the "result" of the help (like a house as a result of the help) seems to be pointless. Everybody will die anyway, some day, one way or another.

Only few reviews. Could be more - and of better quality. (One can compare older ones with newer ones, and see the difference in the graphical/textual layout.)

No... there would be other people, such as you, who could uphold it anyway. ;-)

Well, according to the personal view, I suck at coding, at least now. ;-) Maybe some day these abilities improve. Perhaps.
