I really bring down the hammer on a few of the mods around here and several games in this article upon request: My thoughts on game design, gameflow, metagaming, and how to create gameplay that won't die out in a few goes around the wheel.

Nothing I say here is meant to be an attack on modmakers or individuals, but rather taking their work as examples as to why I personally feel they do not reach their potential.

Show them your butt, and when you do, slap it so it creates a sound akin to a chorus of screaming spider monkeys flogging a chime with cacti. Only then can you find your destiny at the tip of the shaft.

Great article, I'll be sure to take a lot of those points into consideration.

I'm not sure how much of what I have read I have actually remembered, mostly because I'm so damn tired. However, I do know that your articles were quite... passionate, one could say. They were quite humorous, too. IskatuMesk bashing something is always fun to see/read.

BASHME, OHYES--- What? I have no idea what just happened. I'm not masochistic.

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.

NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.
