Browsing through RPC has become less and less enjoyable over the past few months. Not only are there now way too many shitposts and dumb memes (I'm of course excluding posts made on RD), but there seem to be more and more fights as well. A few good members that I really respected left a while ago and now the forum feels like it's half spam and half way too nice people who don't do anything about it. That's really quite lonely.

Because it was made by Hunch no?
Well Hunch, Harpic and Eren are the biggest contributors of these kinda posts, but the one that peeved me the most was OCG's one during the argument with Tamaki
Please point me to any message I wrote after record day that just reads “thank mr skeltal”, I'd love to see how I contributed to those.

Well somebody gave Fifo and Harpic the mr skeltal rank, and it was not me (to my knowledge at least). I'm not here to call you a enabler but if the mightiest of the mighty starts a joke, it trickles down into a meme once the peasants get the hold of it.

Certainly, I just stated that I never posted a message like the ones you described in your first post, contrary to what you said in your second post.

Hi, just wanna drop that I will be taking part in a charity all nighter tonight in which we will be playing games for 12 hours straight from 9PM GMT (one of which will be the Rayman Legends Kung Foot minigame) in order to raise funds for Special Effect, which builds custom gaming equipment for people with disabilities. Each person who donates will also be entered in a raffle (up to 5 tickets per person only), and info on the prizes are here.

Our Twitch page is here, while our fundraising page is here.

Thanks for looking.

Hey, I'm not leaving! :P The tone of my post may have made it sound like I was, but I'm still here (not very active, but still) :) I just wanted to rant about how much I dislike the current situation here on RPC. The community has gone downhill to the point that I'm not willing to contribute to it as much as I have in the past and it seems a lot of other members feel the same way.

Well, I wasn't really trying to post about the state of the Rayman franchise in itself (more on how that also affects the community), but in any case, I too will still be here waiting for a better game to come. :)
Wow your post made me thought you were salty, I agree RPC became shit now.
And you meant Rayman sucks nowaday, it's your opinion, but I don't agree :mrgreen:

This is true. I really wish they would have done something along the lines of Rayman 1 instead of Origins/Legends. The games are fun but seem very uninspired compare to Rayman 1-3. As for the community, I have notice it seems we got smaller but im not sure. Given Rayman is not as popular as Mario or Soinc. I have seen Rayman getting much more popular since early this year. But a "small" community isnt bad anyway. I wonder if it will take someone from the RPC to convince Ubi-Soft to make a new 3D platforming Rayman game...

I can't say I agree with you on that, in fact I think they may have been MORE inspired. When I first played Origins I could tell that Ancel had seen the bubblething from New Super Marioo Bro.s Wii and made the concept even better. Many of Origins running segments are also very reminiscent of titles like super meatboy, and that doesn't even include the return of old characters like Murphy, Betilla, and the Stonemen.

Just looked at some videos of Windows 10 in action. It's like they took everything native to a Mac and crammed it into Windows. I swear it's the console wars all over again, now gone desktop.

However, also saw some features that seemed innovative and must say it looks like a good system from a UI and user friendliness point of view.

But who knows how cranky the beast is below the surface... c'mon you all know how computers can be sometimes xD

We were playing Saturn Bomberman at around midnight so it was not only me and Aaron but about 6 other players at that time. Thanks for checking it out though Xen. ;)

Thought it could've been :P An impressive amount of money seems to have been raised too, and to an interesting cause. Would've donated myself if I wasn't so strapped presently. Good job!
