Hey guys, It's LM here. Most of you probably don't remember me, excluding Excalibur, who I'm sure can't forget me after the whole melee mapping attempt. Still though, not here to reminisce. It's been awhile since I was active, and, after some time spent maturing I think I'm finally ready to be a good member here. For as long as I can remember, I've made not-so-good maps with little triggering, a few movie maps, and a never-finished campaign. As well as starting a big project or two that never advanced halfway past the first five percent of completion. All those days are over though, because I'm ready to restart. The whole point of making this topic is to ask permission to get a fresh start here at SEN. I'm out of name changes, and would like an entirely new account. I know of the multi-accounting rules, so I felt it would be better to get permission first from the staff here.

Woah

If you're going to announce that you want to make a new account and start over, doesn't that defeat the purpose?

Well DevliN, it kind of does, but since you never answered my PM I didn't have much of a choice.
I'm not here to argue though. I would like to get this account deleted, and move on.

You seem like an entirely new person to me.

Welcome to SEN!

Are you planning on making SC2 maps? Nobody's considering SC1 history for SC2 because the editors are vastly different.

I'm not interested in starting an argument, I have already had plenty in the past here. May I make a new account now?



None.

Why are you even asking? It's not like there's some super warning alarm that goes off next to Devlin's fire alarm in his hallway when a member makes 2 accounts. This whole thing just seems like attention to me.


Don't start yelling at that.

@CAFG - Just asking because of the multi-accounting rules. As unlikely as it may seem, I have administrated several free forums, and, to be frank, it's a bitch when people multi-account and don't tell you.

Multi-account are being controlled in the Staff's forum, you did well warning the admins/mods. End of story.

Well we're off to a good start :awesome:

I recognize you. Did I used to troll you, or did you fortunately miss that unpleasantness.

A Fresh Start of a Stale topic.

Welcome back. I remember you as some dude that's usually too cool to say much.. like DTBK and Excalibur

Sup, dawg, welcome back -- or just welcome, I s'pose, since you're coming back as a newbie? I didn't know ya from before, but m'name's DavidJCobb. I'm the site's client-side coder -- or I will be when Devo gets around to e-mailin' me the site's FTP codes. :P (Devo, or Devourer, is our resident coder, who just returned from a hiatus. Devvie, or Devlin, is our admin IIRC.)

If you see any problems with the site, post in our bugs/features topic. Make sure to tell us what browser and version you're using, and what SEN skin you're browsing with. (The default is "Turtle".) If you see any visual problems with our currently-impossible-to-find-anywhere StarCraft 1 wiki, then definitely post in that topic (preferably with a screenshot of the bug), because that's stuff I can fix even without FTP access to the site.



None.

I wouldn't think multi accounts would be much of an issue unless we're talking about D.E.A.D.

...memories of a v4

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Symmetry -- :wob:

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically
[2026-6-21. : 4:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.
[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
[2026-6-19. : 9:57 am]
Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
