You don't need to keep repeating that you're making a game. We got the point the first time you said it.

There, I fixed it for you. If you look at the below (which is the same block of text, but without color), you will realize that it is much, much easier to read, and makes you sound a lot smarter than you really are:

That being said, I don't see how anything you have said makes any sense. The fact that a post is first on the list does not imply that it needs to be bumped. There are several reasons not to bump topics, many of which have been discussed already. However, everyone has missed out on one of the more important ones: often, people bump topics in order to ask a question. Either they get an answer, or they don't. However, most of those people are one post wonders -- they ask their question, then leave (either with an answer or not). If you bump a four year old post, the only person who cares about it (i.e. the person that asked the question) is long gone.

Also, I would suggest that you do not taunt the admins. No one here is going to miss you when you are banned. If you really don't care if you get banned, maybe you should do the polite thing, and leave right now, rather than aggravating people for no reason. But, hey, I don't think that is going to happen. Clearly, you suffer from some form of brain damage, and manners are not your forte.

"I can't be arsed to check my spelling."

I also didn't understand it. I put it down to his typing being so crap I couldn't decide if it was a typo or an acronym.

gosox, Ace was referring to this meme as opposed to simply ridiculing you; not sure why you're so concerned about character assassination when you've already done such a good job of it yourself, anyway.
